Oops! Google Maps Terrorizes New Jersey Family --- Says Home Is State Park!


What would you do if people just started pullup to your driveway by the dozens...snapping pictures like your house was theme park attraction?

Some people are averse to Google Maps because of privacy and New Jersey resident Laurie Gneiding is experiences this hands on! Google Maps has sent hordes of outdoor enthusiasts to her door.

Gneiding lives right on the border of Round Valley State Park, which contains Round Valley Reservoir in the middle. But her home is, contrary to what Google will tell you if you look for directions to the Round Valley Reservoir, not the entrance to Round Valley Reservoir.

She's had to put up a sign shouting
"NOT Park Entrance... Private Driveway... Google Maps is wrong!,"
But in the summer, everyone wants a dip in the lake, so the visitors keep coming, and coming.

Gneiding reported the problem to Google, which says it's working on it.

What the heck would you do if this happened to you?
