We are seasonal campers for the first time, after being previous owners. We well know the work and careing that goes into taking care of a campground. William and Carolynn Shangraw are great people fun loving, and do a lot with and for the campers. We highly reccomed this campground.. Gil n Jean Lowden..
This is the worst campground in New York. If you are planning a camping trip to the figure lakes do not go here. It is a trail park. Our first notice that we should not have gone there was when we book the campground and the gentleman taking our reservation did not take a deposit. He said we can pay when we get there. That was odd considering ever campground makes you put a deposit down. There was four family's in our group, so we took the four hour drive from Pennsylvania and when we arrive there was a guy cutting grass that stopped us and said " what are we doing here". We explained that we had reservations and he replied that he knew nothing about us coming. Then he said he can park us in the grass with a 110 volt extension cord to supply our trails. Keep in mind there is two 40 foot fifth wheels and two 30 foot travel trailers. At this point I would have stayed in a Wal Mart parking lot. So we all got on our phone and started looking for a new campground to travel to. We ending finding a great campground with friendly staff over by Ithaca that could accommodate us for four days. We all got into our trucks and left this horrible campground. If you want to stay in a campground from a scene in Deliverance and play a banjo then stay here. But I warned you this place is horrible. Look Else where and do not stay here!!
Very nice campground, great location, ideal for long stay. We bought a 5th wheel on site here and inherited the site and my wife and I have been living here full time for a month or so already and absolutely love it. The campground is beautiful, a great location 2 minutes walk from the lake, and people are super friendly. The owner, Will, keeps the area neat and tidy and everyone cares about making the space around their camper look tidy and attractive. This is no low end trailer park but it's not snobby either, it's the perfect mix of classy but accessible. It will be a cold day in hell before I sell the camper and leave here.
This review is not for this particular place but for surrounding areas where a beautiful sunset can be seen. Really serene and breathtaking.
