Campsite: Brookwood RV Resort

Ok…get your beer/coffee!

I booked a different campground, for 7 weeks, a year ago…drove from Florida, arrived…all the trees had been cut down and it was basically a parking lot. No shade…nada. The vision was to work remote while enjoying upstate New York…trees, leaves, river….and let the Fall colors come to us.

We arrived on a Sunday (one day early) and my wife went on a walk and discovered our planned oasis was a rock parking lot. So…I’m googling and calling, and really have very little hope I can find one site for the whole 7 weeks.

Buffy answers. I explain my situation, it’s late, she’s tired….she says “I can do it….but I need to do it tomorrow”. No problem I say!

Monday morning I unhooked the TOAD and sent my wife to explore Brookwood. I said….go see Buffy in person, see if there’s a site you like that she can give us….then call me. I was parked, with slide out and everything hooked up by 10am!

Bathrooms get a 9/10

Sites get a 10/10

Location is a 10

Service a 10

The new pool and barn area is amazing (and you can be far enough away to not hear the live music…if you like, but it was perfectly done).

They just installed WiFi repeaters so there is WiFi throughout the park. I worked (during the week) every day without issue.

Can’t comment on cable as we don’t even turn on a TV when we travel. They have firewood and a well-stocked store. Laundry was NEVER an issue for us.

We visited Lake Placid twice (you should go BEFORE the colors change, then after), Whiteface Mt., Ausage Chasm and Rainbow Falls, wineries, Ticonderoga, Saratoga…..and if you’re here, you have to visit THE Star Trek set (the actual set).

I’m sorry people published bad experiences…we had a great time and it wouldn’t have been possible if not for Buffy and Mark.
