  1. Thanks for your comments about all the costs associated with your trip to the Shakespeare Festival. Did you happen to like that campground you stayed at? We were thinking of a trip there next year so anything you post would be helpful!

    Thanks!

  2. Hi Kevin,

    Glenyan Campground is about five minutes outside of Ashland, and offers quiet, shared hot showers, wi-fi, a mini-store, and an overwhelming number of blackberry bushes (just becoming ripe during our August trip). There is a small reservoir about one-half mile away which I think *might* have a beach, if interested (Glenyan has a pool, as well). Seems pet-friendly. Rates seem very reasonable, compared to staying in a hotel.

    These costs were for my wife and me, purchasing the "cheap seats" and driving up from Sacramento. We primarily ate lunches at the Ashland Food Co-Operative and splurged around town for evening meals, as mood dictated.
