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 here multiple times. We love it here. It's our go to campground in the adirondacks. The staff is absolutely fantastic. The bathrooms are nice and the showers are hot. The campsites are awesome. Kind and very helpful. Amazing stargazing too!! Beautiful view out by the road.
First visit to the area, campground was perfect. Clean quite, lots of hikers but some families with kids, could here them playing on the swings heartwarming!! We were 2 with a dog and a scamp camper, our site was beautiful, hand picked by staff when we called and emailed, will be returning to this little gem. Did some hiking and visiting the sites, Very dog friendly community in Lake Placid check out fido website for the area. lots of restaurant and dog shopping fun.
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.
