My favorite Campground in the Adirondacks! The staff is absolutely amazing. My Kayak racks were stolen off of my car about 15 miles from the grounds and the staff came and picked up my Kayaks to at least get them back to our site. The staff is personable and friendly, as if you've known them for years. Extremely clean Campground with a very nice dish washing station, which most Campgrounds in the Adirondacks do not have. This has become my new favorite Campground.
Campsites are pretty large and accommodating. Park staff are friendly and helpful. I have been coming to this campground for 20 years and each trip gets better every time.

7-14 to 7-16 We had 1 big and 1 middle sized tent, and they were able to both fit on our site (#258) Our campsite had more room than some we saw, and I'm glad it wasnt any smaller. There was a mud hole right off the edge of the pavement, but we were able to park over it. Saw 3 black bears. The one walked about 5 ft into the woods right behind our campfire ring. Make sure you use the bear box!
Beautiful campground, our site was stunning right on the water, neighbors were quiet, could hear a pin drop at night but instead heard the loons wailing (amazing). My biggest fear is bears, had one walk right in between my neighbor and our site the first morning, and then a few nights later one was spotted a few sites down walking down the road. We keep a clean site but if the camper before you does not, you may have company as bears return to where they find food. Water was warm, garbage/recycling area was clean but a decent trek from our site. No complaints!
