Coyotes bears oh my..

This is an interesting camp ground. As I am set up for bed I see one other large green tent that looks deserted. People left their left over food scraps in the grass by my camp so not only has my dog been eating it, I also hear coyotes. Won’t be surprised if I see a bear in the morning..

Bear Creek CG in CTG

Very nice campground. Has electric, water and cable TV connections.

Clean bathrooms and nice store.

It is part of the Lake Compounce Amusement Park.

Stayed in September 2021. CG is pretty empty during the week and gets busy during the weekend.

Good for one night

This was good for an overnight stop on our way south. We couldn't find much else along our route, but this wasn't too bad. The sites were long so even though you face your neighbor, the sites were long enough that our door wasn't directly across from our neighbor. It is adjacent to an amusement park so there were lots of families here. None of the sites have sewer, but there is a dump station on the way out. The staff were very friendly and they had some activities like bingo and corn hole the weekend we were there. Wifi was okay, but we couldn't stream anything from it.

Great campground

Easy entry, long pull thrus. You will face your neighbor door to door but enough room between you don't feel invaded. Restrooms are clean and spacious. Showers are great. Whoever planned this campground is/was a camper. They have cabins, teepee and tent sites. This is attached to an amusement park but far enough away not to be a bother. If ever in the area again we will definitely stay again.

Great Stopover or Amusement Park visit

Campground is only years old. Sites were large enough for RV. NO privacy, bit tent sites were ok. Fre showers for number of campsites, but very clean. Affiliated with Lake Compounce Amusement Park adjacent to campground.

Mixed review

They have a small playground, activities, tennis court, basketball. Not to mention its next to the amusement park. 

However the tent spots are small and close together. Also there is only one set of facilities for the whole place.  It's quite a walk to the bathrooms.
