Lake Placid/Whiteface Mountain KOA Holiday

We found this sweet spot perfect for our weekend winter stays to attend our daughter’s collegiate alpine ski races at the hill where the Olympics once were. Clean, cozy and warm can describe our cabin that was on the beautiful river and wooded enough for privacy but close to the mountain and anemities in Lake Placid. Our dog Crawford loved exploring as did we. This is a place where we are planning on some summer and fall weekends to experience the Adirondack’s and have a place to land each day. Highly recommend.

A year round experience 

Stayed here on a busy Memorial Day weekend. The Cabin was fantastic and so much was provided! Our favorite being the Keurig with Coffee pods and the option to purchase more from the amazing onsite Store! (That also offered and excellent menu of food throughout the day) The Lake Placid area is beautiful and there's so much to do! Hiking in the High Peaks is great and for those who aren't able to hike, The Whiteface Highway is minutes down the road and will take you to the top of the mountain, offering excellent views of the Adirondack Mountains! There's also hiking by the Ausable River on the Campgrounds with a beautiful waterfall.

Lake Placid-Whiteface Mtn KOA- Cabin #T06

Love to ski, snowboard, And snowshoe in the winter, but in the summer we hike, bike, swim and many other activities. Had a beautiful time looking at the views of ADK's from town and hiked around. 

Love it here

Staying here was sort of a last minute decision, but I was very pleased with my stay. Some friends and I from college picked this place the morning of, and ended up getting to the campground around 6pm. The place wasn't too busy, and we were able to get a great spot. One thing I loved was how great the roads were leading up to the campground, and around the campground. I have a small car and always worry that the roads will be bumpy and have tons of potholes. This road was well maintained. I also appreciated how easy it was getting to our campsite. Some campgrounds it is a maze to try and get to your spot, but everything is well marked. The campground was clean, which we also appreciated. There are dumpsters and garbage cans all around the campground, so it makes it easy to dump your trash. There are also really good hiking trails nearby, which we did the next morning. There also is a cute little store nearby that had some good snacks. We forgot roasting sticks for our smores, and this store saved the day. There are also showers and bathrooms within the campground, which I thought were clean and well managed. The scenery was gorgeous, trees surrounded us- which is nice because it does give you some privacy. I also saw somewhere that they offer Wifi, however we didn't use it. Might be something to look into if that is something you need. The lake is gorgeous. My friends and I enjoyed some kayaking and swimming! Overall, staying here was awesome. If you are looking for a place to go that is beautiful and CLEAN, I would suggest coming here. 

Beautiful Campground!!

This is the best koa we have been to. Very large campground but quiet for the size. Lots to do, hiking trails within walking distance. Just a short drive to white face mountain and the village of lake placid. The only down fall is some of the site could be a little tricky to back into. We loved it here.

Loved it here

This campground is lovely! The tent sites are spacious and feel somewhat private considering how large the campground is. The bathrooms are well maintained and kept clean. The showers don’t run out of hot water, which is an issue common to many other campgrounds I’ve stayed at. The staff are responsive and accommodating. There is a small restaurant on-site in the lodge and while their menu is simple they take care to accommodate guests. I have a severe food allergy and they made sure my food was made safely. The only downsides I’d give are the price and the size of the campground - just because it’s so large it does feel a little less private than staying at one of the smaller family owned places around. It’s still wonderful though and I would book again without hesitation.

wonderful but a little pricey

I went to this camp in October and it was amazing. Love the facilities, actually felt like I could shower here! Lol. The ground were flat too which was a plus. Coming back at the end of May and I can’t wait for the warmer weather :)

My fav camp ground in ADK!!

Normal KOA with the same activities but the location is beautiful. Whiteface Mountain isn’t too far and you can drive to the summit and hike to the top. The town of Lake Placid is also very lively and they have lots of nice shops and restaurants. Amazing location with lots of wildlife and the cabin at the campground was very homey.

KOA New York Mountains

This was our first KOA experience and was a good one! Overall, the park was clean, staff awesome, and enough for kids to do. The pool is smaller and if it were swimming weather, I bet it would have been quite crowded. There is one playground and an arcade. The arcade or game room was not in the best shape; definitely showed wear from the years. The sites are relatively bigger but all dirt or mostly dirt at least in the majority of the park. But to stay and enjoy the high peaks region, it was great! 

First KOA Stay

This is a Class A 5⭐️KOA Campsite!  We arrived late and Jox &amp; his sweet wife helped us manuever our RV into our pull through site B05.  We were super close to the office, store, snacks, laundry &amp; activities.  Our site was a “ dirt” site that had a picnic table and fire pit with full hook ups.  This campsite has concierge service that will help you out with any of your wants/needs.  Great site in nature’s finest.

Amazing

This place was the perfect rest spot after summiting Whiteface. The sites were larger than expected, good wi-fi, clean bathhouses, and tons of things to do around the campground. 100% will be coming back!
