Lovely stay in a basic cabin pre and post Mount Marcy hike. Cabin was clean and basic essentials were perfect for heating up dinner and making coffee. Quite atmosphere. Road traffic can be a bit noisy but location related to area adventures is hard to beat! Beds were comfortable, bathrooms and showers were clean. Great communication with staff. We would stay here again.

My partner and I with our golden retriever just fined a five day camping trip here and we absolutely loved it!! The location is amazing, we came down to do some hiking and it is about 13 minutes at ADJ lodge and the 20 to Keene Valley so I highly recommend it as a home base! The bathrooms were quite clean and I really like that they were separated with your own shower and toilet, there were two close by to any of the campsites. We will be back next year for sure!

We have been coming to Draper's Acres every year since 2018, sometimes twice a year. It is the best location for high peak adventures. Close to hiking, biking, golf, shopping, etc. It is peaceful at the campground. The owners and employees have always been wonderful! The bathrooms are clean, individualized toilet and shower. There is a playground for children too. We look forward to coming every year. Highly recommend.
