About
State Park
Welcome to Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground! Nestled near Ancram, NY, this spot is a gem for anyone looking to escape into nature. The campground offers a mix of tent, RV, cabin, and even glamping accommodations, so there's something for everyone.
One of the standout features here is the beautiful lake, perfect for swimming and boating. The beach area is a hit, especially on busy weekends. If you're into hiking, there are plenty of trails to explore, and the park's expansive picnic areas are great for a family outing or a big group gathering.
The campground itself is well-maintained, with clean bathrooms and hot showers. Some visitors have noted that the campsites can be a bit close together, but there are a few more secluded spots if you prefer a bit more privacy. Sites like G1 and #19 come highly recommended for their relative seclusion and convenience.
For those who enjoy a good campfire, you'll be pleased to know that fires are allowed, and you can buy firewood right on site. Pets are welcome too, so feel free to bring your furry friends along for the adventure.
If you need any supplies, there's a small market within the park that sells essentials like firewood and ice. And don't worry about noise; the 10 pm quiet policy is generally well-respected, making for a peaceful night's sleep.
Whether you're here for the swimming, the hiking, or just to relax by the fire, Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground has got you covered. Enjoy your stay!
