Campground was nice, water on many sites just not hook up. Boon docking otherwise. Trading post is a plus, narrow road was a downer, but everyone is cooperative and work together to get to their sites. Excellent dump station. Lots of sites on the waterfront. Overall I give the place a 5 boon-docking campground.

Overall a nice park that we will return to next year. We had site 7 near the front gate. LOTS of non-stop traffic being the main entry/exit to the park. Tight roads require giving way to larger rigs. I was not a fan of the 'rituals' that occur every night at dusk and again at 10pm. Limited cell service. Great kayaking, especially if you go up stream from the boat launch. Nice playground adjacent to the beach.

Fish Creek Pond is one of those great places you just want to go back to every year or as many times as you can. Almost every site is on the lake so you can't go wrong with that. If you are traveling with a camper you can run into some issues with maneuvering to get it on the site just right. But if you are tenting you don't have an issue. The only issue I would say, is there are some sites that tend to get some standing water over others. As for cell service it isn't the greatest for that. Although for making and receiving calls it isn't too bad. Texts and going online though, that might be a bit of an issue. But if you are there to be in the moment then all is good. There are trails and of course plenty of kayaking or boating in general. There are also areas to go if you don't want to deal with motor boats as well. That is where you may run into some wonderful wildlife as well as beautiful scenery. Not to mention, there are so many places to visit around the area on good or bad days, like Saranac Lake or The Wild Center in Tupper Lake. Don't just take my word for it though, explore it all for yourself and have your own adventures see it all with your own eyes.

It's just an absolutely stunning campground. Well maintained as well. Almost every campsite is on the water, and there's a store within 10 minutes. They have reserved times to run your generator; only Genny I bring is from Rochester, though, so I appreciated the quiet times. They also have cool little traditions. I'll let you see first hand!

This magnificent campground is my personal favorite in all of the Adirondacks. I enjoy my lavish lifestyle whilst I rest in my tent, which ALL sites including creek sites give me plenty of space to do so. The sense of community and a positive environment make my return trips each and every year better. The sites give enough space for activities, best represented by Will Ferrell’s famous quote from hit movie ‘Stepbrothers’, “Look at all the space for activities in here!” The ease of access to hiking trails and boat launches make my life a breeze. I would recommend this campground to people from all regions and that your trips may be as superb as mine.
