The Best Camping Near Sterling, New York

Not too far from Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany. Sunsets are amazing. Sandy beach and hilly wooded park. Basic though recently renovated facilities with electricity at a lot of the tent sits. Get a site by the buffs if you have a tent that can take some serious wind (especially in fall). Avoid Drumlin loop, it’s sandier and smaller sites. They have cabins too. Favorite park in the area and they take good care of it.

This haven is more than fair 

weve camped here quite a few times as its close by for us. We have been in both the electric loop and the bluff, electric and non electric. The view from the bluff is unbeatable. Bathroom are close by in the electric loop and are always well maintained. Nice park for everyone, very kid friendly

NICE !!!

Very clean, well kept campground. Campsites are spacious and shady. Nice playground for kids. Access to park trails. A very nice sand beach on the lake. Reasonably priced including electric power and showers.

Bonus: nice beach

We camped here two nights at the lake view area and loved it! Spacious sites, not all are enclosed with trees but still plenty of room to spread out, we had two tents, two cars, a boat &amp; a pop up table over tent and had plenty of room to have other come and visit. Showers were super clean &amp; wicked spacious. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful when we needed to switch our site due to unkind neighbors. Awesome beach &amp; plenty of fishing areas, super cute town to go into if you please. Definitely will be back!
