What are fun things to do on a family getaway in the middle of nowhere?|110642

Hello. I_m going away from Sept. 1 to Sept 4 with my wife, her brother, and her parents. We are going to Tupper Lake, NY. It is basically in the middle of nowhere. I know that we will do a little fishing, but besides that I_m not sure what to do to pass the time. Is there anything that we can do that will be fun? Is there anything that I should make sure not to forget to bring with me? Thanks.

Some useful tips and essential things for a safe and enjoyable holiday::

1. Go in 2 or 3 cars/caravans if you are camping. There is
a great truth about safety in numbers. Consider bringing
another 5 friends and relatives for more fun, too.

2. Bring along a couple of soccer/volley balls, frisbees,barbeque set.

3. Ensure a few ground-sheets, hurricane lamps, LED torches(those that have 15-20 hrs ultra-bright and continuous lighting), 2 big pails, 5 big plastic bags.

4. 2 hardwood 2m poles for self-defence and other emergency use.

5. When you get to the spot, many ideas for activities will automatically present themselves, so don_t worry too much. Anyway 4 days will pass too fast! But have a good discussion with some people who have done _camping in the middle of nowhere_ and believe them when they say it is really NOT recommended. There will be endless problems and it may turn out to be a nightmare. Well, you have been cautioned.

Have a nice holiday!

That_s one of the saddest things I_ve ever read.
