Peaceful-Valley is a campground located along the east branch of the
Delaware River in upstate New York.
It has a lot to offer to both the modelers
and vacationers. The new site will obviously be closer for some,
farther for
others, but the beauty of this place, and the immense flying field is worth the
extra drive.
