Description
State Park
The Lake George Islands campsites, divided into three groups, Glen Island, Long Island, and Narrow Island, are located on Lake George, America's "Queen" Lake. Camping here is unique; Lake George Islands campsites are accessible by boat only and are spread out over much of the lake. Each of the three camping islands has its own headquarters, to make site registration as convenient as possible. After campers choose the area in which they wish to camp, they continue to a private marina to park and launch. Fishing, hiking, bird watching, boating and sailing are included in the many activities campers enjoy on these wonderful islands.
CAMPGROUND SPECIFIC INFORMATION All campsites are accessible by boat only. Pets are PROHIBITED on all Lake George Islands campsites and day use islands (including Glen Island’s mainland campsites, all docks or any vessels moored at docks). There is a $3/night refuse surcharge imposed for Lake George Island camping permits. The surcharge is necessary to cover rising operating costs and allow the Department to continue the current program of refuse management on Lake George. Lake George Park Commission requires a user’s permit, and a fee is charged depending on the length of time, boat size and sleeping capability. Permits are usually available at the marina where the boat is launched, sporting goods stores or delis in the area. Further information is available from the L.G.P.C. at 518-668-9347.
