Hiking and climbing enthusiasts will find extensive trail access at this state park campground in the Hudson Valley. The facility accommodates RVs up to 20 feet and offers both drive-in and walk-in sites, though reviewers note the individual sites run smaller than average. No campfires are permitted on the grounds.
Lake Minnewaska provides the main water recreation draw, with swimming and kayaking opportunities in what one camper described as the "most acidic lake in New York but completely safe." The campground serves as a staging point for longer hikes, including the six-mile trek to Sam's Point Overlook. For different accommodations, Jellystone Park™ Gardiner offers a family-oriented alternative with full hookups.
