Campsite: Shangri-La Marina Campground & Restaurant

ShangriLa Campground & Marina

Found this beautiful, quaint spot while adventuring through New York, from Ontario, Canada.

Marge, the manager was eager to greet and show off the amazing transformation of ShangriLa. Wonderfully spirited, full of humour, quick witted and down to earth, Marge was definitely the hostess with the mostest!!!!

As the first, to stay in the new air bnb, I must say, it was beautiful, more than adequately stocked, comfortable, very clean and had a serene feeling.

Kayaking along the shore of the bay, came next. Beautiful, clear water and many areas to treasure hunt along the shorelines.

The plan for dinner was to barbecue chicken and make a salad, but the life of the newly re-opened restaurant was irresistible! Greeted by friendly staff, and easily chatting with many of the local people, I devoured the best traditional Clubhouse sandwiche I have had in years!! (And I am super picky with my food!) P.S. the restaurant IS licensed!!

Lovely local people were so friendly and welcoming!! Thank you so much to Chris, Erin, Tito, Taylor, Jim, the handful of others I had the pleasure of meeting, and of coarse Marge, for making the stay perfect!!!

I am happy to report that I have already pre-booked 2 weeks for next year!!

Now…if I didn’t leave a note regarding possible changes I would make, the general population would think my review is fake, so here’s my constructive criticism….

- A beach was not listed; however, there are places to swim. It is not sand covered access, but rocks. Water shoes are not required, as the rocks are very rounded.

- A dock for jumping into the water would be fantastic for kids

- A volleyball and/or court area would be fabulous for families with teenagers

- Treats!! Ice cream, chocolate bars, chips and light snack foods would probably be a great add, for children who want a treat, and adults who forgot late night snacks!!!

- The sale of ice, firewood, and bug spray

- Wifi is definitely needed for the newer generation of kids

In saying all of this, it’s actually more business suggestions than criticism. Opening a business and completely

re-doing it takes time, and prioritizing tasks is a must. Already, ShangriLa is wonderful. As I said, I’ve already booked my two weeks for next summer!!
