Customer Reviews
Ok. We knew it was a primitive campground Not our first time. But when I say nasty, it's an understatement. We rated it 2 stars because it is a beautiful place. Also, when I read about a state park having a playground I thought the kids would be excited. No... no. No.no. I wouldn't let my children anywhere near that playground even if they wanted to. (Which they didnt) and what looked like a seesaw was a lopsided merry-go-round. The campsite is small.. our truck filled most of the campsite leaving very little room for our large tent. Also.. the entire campground is right next to the main road, which can be easily seen even in the summertime and is noisy. Not sure what it's like there at night though, because we left shortly after using the outhouse. We've used an outhouse many times but this was unbearable. If you book a reservation online make sure to look at the complete map, as the one where you choose your campsite does not show many of the unattractive aspects of the campground. I added a few pics of the place. Should have got one of the toilet but it just wasn't worth it.
A basic but loveable campground. Grounds are pack in, pack out. The bathrooms are septic tanks. Water spigots work and a network of trails connect. The campsites are close but separated by trees. The ground is made up of a lot of gravel type rocks on top of dirt but beware the typical NY rocks under the first layer of dirt if you putting down pegs. I had no cell phone service or data with TMobile but may vary for others.
Such a beautiful location, wonderful trails are nearby. I highly recommend it!
a very quiet place, perfect to disconnect from stress and technology, the only bad thing is the very dirty bathrooms, no water to wash your hands and with a bad smell in the entire camp area
Primitive campsite. There is only an outhouse but each site has a firepit and picnic table. It is nice and quiet, the person that checked us in was very nice and helpful. We usually stay down the road at North-South Lake Campground but they were all sold out. We are so happy that they were. This is a nice quiet camping experience. We will definitely return.
I had a great experience here. It's conveniently located right off the Devil's path trail and property was well maintained. Roy was a great guy and really took care of me. I hope to be hiking the path again next year and hope to see him again. Thanks for everything Joe G
