    SUMMARY PRESENTED BYT-Mobile

    Several cabin camping options surround the Ancramdale area in New York's Hudson Valley region. Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground features cabins set near a swimming lake with boat rentals available. The cabins typically include electric hookups, picnic tables, and fire pits. Copake Camping Resort (formerly a KOA) offers rental cabins with varying amenities depending on cabin type. Most provide basic furnishings and are located near shower facilities and restrooms. According to one visitor, "The cottage was great besides all the bees," noting their Labor Day weekend experience at Lake Taghkanic.

    Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Waubeeka Family Campground and Mills Norrie State Park both offer cabin options with different comfort levels. Most cabins require advance reservations, especially during peak summer months when availability becomes limited. The rental season typically runs from May through mid-October, with several parks closing after Columbus Day weekend. Pet policies vary by campground, with Copake Camping Resort, Taconic State Park, and several others permitting pets in some but not all cabin units. A review mentioned that the cabins at Copake "come in three different types and sizes."

    Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities range from simple countertops to more equipped setups depending on the cabin type. Several campgrounds including Copake and Waubeeka have on-site camp stores that sell firewood, ice, and essential supplies. Grocery options can be found in nearby towns for more substantial shopping needs. Firewood is available for purchase at most locations, though prices vary. The campground at Taconic State Park provides proximity to hiking trails, with one visitor noting, "The trail head to Bash Bish Falls was also at the campgrounds which was convenient."

      West Point FMWR Round Pond Outdoor Recreation Area

      Rest up and Recon the Museum 2026

      Campground: fairly secluded, forested, breezy with some wildlife. Small camp store. Ingress/Egress: Tight approach with multiple switchbacks and steep grades - if you’re coming in a towable rig over 36’ you might want to take a solo look first. Sites are oddly arranged and there aren’t any FHU sites. Cell: Verizon in spot C9 had 1-bar; we used Starlink for connectivity. Laundry: 3 washers & 3 dryers: $2.50 each. Dump Station: was close by (across the street) but we didn’t need it for our 3 day stay. Bathhouse: across the street, clean and we used it almost exclusively. Noise: Quiet with some small arms fire, but barely noticeable from our site. Site C9: can be viewed from Google street view site is north of the lake in the horseshoe road- some cabins are viewable as well. Site is gravel with composite picnic table, post metal grill and truck rim fire ring. Water pressure- fluctuated 30psi-50psi: hunted constantly. Cabins: available and in good order. They appear to be older, but still functional- mini log cabins $65/night (primitive-no bathroom)

      Treetopia Campground

      Amazing camping/Glamping!

      Treetopia is a unique and truly amazing camping/Glamping experience in the Catskills, New York! We were able to meet Betty, Treetopia’s manager, who toured us around the campground and took us into each type of rental they provide for that special camping trip. They have RV sites, yurts, custom furnished treehouses with electricity, beautiful tiny homes with outdoor living spaces, completely remodeled vintage airstreams, and gorgeous private cabins! Every unit was more beautiful and comfortable than the next. The backdrop for the campground is the wonderful Catskill Mountains and all of the nature that includes. A wonderfully inspiring place! 😊👍🏻

      If you have an RV, they have 30/50 amp with electric and water. There is no sewer, but they have a dump-station and on-site Honeywagon truck that you can schedule. They staff was wonderful and went out of their way to make our stay perfect! 💗

      Black Rock State Park Campground

      A nice family friendly campground

      This is a nice family friendly campground that makes for easy trips. There are a variety of sites available, from open field sites to more wooded and private areas. The campground also has a lake for swimming,trails for hiking, and some nice quiet areas for fishing. Well maintained bathrooms, with available showers, are also spread throughout the grounds. Not pet friendly unfortunately.

      Copake Falls Area — Taconic State Park

      Great spot for your whole family

      This campground overall was pretty good. It is a larger campground, with large sites. Within the campground there are also restrooms available, showers and water. I would advise to bring your own water, because the running water they provide doesn't taste the best and smells like rotten eggs. Just my opinion. The campsites also have a fire ring pit and a picnic table, which was nice for my large family. It wasn't too busy when we went- we got there on a Friday night around 6pm and were able to get a spot. There are also some fun activities within the campground, and things nearby. There are some good hiking and biking trails. My family and I went on a hike one morning, and my brothers enjoyed riding their bikes along the path. There is a restaurant near by that plays live music. The night we went, it was country music. Not sure how often they do this, or if the music changes. They do also have cabins you can rent, but we enjoyed the camping experience. We were in section C, spot 85. It was a pretty good, private spot. The campground was pretty clean, although we did see some trash throughout the campground that we picked up as we walked by it.

      Bonnie Brae Cabins and Campsites

      Small quiet campground near a lake & Mt Greylock

      Finally ventured out for a camping trip in this curious season and was delighted to find Bonnie Brae Campground in the Berkshires. It's a compact,clean campground tucked at the end of a quiet neighborhood street, within walking distance to a lake. Many of the RV site are occupied by seasonal campers, and the sites are well-kept. Some of the sites have platforms. This side of the campground was quiet most of the time. The tent and cabin loop circle around the pool area and although you could hear more conversation and noise from this section, everyone was respectful of quiet hours. They also offer a number of cabins for rent with AC and small refrigerator, but no bathrooms. The bathrooms are small, but very clean. They wouldn't meet ADA standards, but there are no drips, stains, or dirt and they seem to check in a couple of times a day to clean up if needed. The pool is now open (delayed this year due to COVID-19) and the kids in particular enjoyed it. You can add a firewood purchase to your reservation and they'll deliver it to your site. 

      I was in site 28 with a teardrop camper. I could have used leveling blocks because it was hard to find a great spot that was level side to side. Sites 27 & 29 each seemed a little more level and 29 was larger.

      Pontoosuc Lake is a short walk away; there are boat rentals available and I saw a number of people fishing from Pontoosuc Park just above the dam. There's a rail trail nearby and Mt Greylock State Reservation offers numerous hiking opportunities 11 miles to the north.

      Jellystone Park™ Gardiner

      FAMILY HEAVEN

      This is a HUGE Jellystone park in upstate NY. There are literally hundreds of cabins and RV sites. We are in site 136, which is a back in spot. Plenty of room between campers. Gravel spot which is pretty level. Full hookups. Picnic table, cable, fire ring, large camp store, showers, toilets, and full laundry area. Also has playgrounds, pillow jump, fishing pond, golf carts, game room, Waterpark, pool, and tennis courts. All of this nestled into the mountains. Nice and family friendly.

      White Pines Campsites

      Clean Campsites

      We stayed at site 85 in Sunny Crest and liked having some privacy. The sites nearby had some trees providing space between each site. A lot of the sites we drove by were pretty sloped- I would recommend a drive though if you can beforehand.

      The picnic table was chained down so there weren’t many options to set up having the fire pit and picnic table where they were.

      Hiking trails were nice, good variety of easier and more difficult terrain.

      Privacy Campground

      Private but needs updates

      I thought I read someplace that there is new ownership, at any rate the folks there were very nice. And the place lives up to its name. We’re not fond of RV parking lots and the sites were well spaced which gets it many extra points. We had a popup in a drive-through site at the bottom of the hill which was fine, though pretty muddy after a day of rain. With that hill there’s no place for larger RVs here unless they were to decide to use the field at the bottom. As far as infrastructure a lot of what is here is very old and dated, sometimes to the point of being comical, but it does appear some updates are happening. Bathroom building is decent and kept very clean (though it would be nice if any of the door latches on the women’s toilets worked.) It appears they have built or rebuilt some cabins. Hiking up and down the hill to the bathroom does get old and there is really no place to park there like most places have without blocking the road. Can squeeze in one car near the (ancient and yucky cold water) dishwashing station. There is a tiny campsite with cabin on the road below it, with a firepit and table like a foot away from the road. Maybe they should eliminate that site to make parking for a couple cars at least, as its a terrible campsite probably the only bad one there. (One night that site had 2 cars, with one blocking the road when we tried to drive past - they should have made the extra car stay down in the lot.) People moved their car a bit, but still had to drive very close to their bonfire. Like much of the area, there is essentially no cell coverage here. An area with wifi would be an excellent upgrade. I know, you’re camping, but sometimes you just need to do something, make a restaurant reservation, or check the weather.

      Update- I just found and read an article about the change of ownership. Showed a picture of a recreation room. Where the heck was that? In the building labeled “the Barn?” Which I thought was an actual barn and off limits. The dyrt says there is wifi, maybe it was there? Would have been nice to know about.

      Jellystone Park™ Gardiner

      Chillaxing Getaway

      We stayed at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort along the Walllkill River in Gardiner, NY, for a four-night chill-out vacation. We’re so glad we did! 

      Our site was called Riverfront Red Carpet. It was spacious, level, waterfront, and partially shaded thanks to some mature trees. Site#22 included a large concrete pad, picnic table, charcoal grill, and large fire ring. Everything was in great condition. It was nice having plenty of space to not be on top of our neighbors. We had full hookups with 50-amp electrical service- which all worked fine. 

      The entire park seemed to be well maintained and clean. There’s a small waterpark which seemed good for younger kids, an eatery, and ice cream shop. The camp store was well-stocked with food, camping supplies, and souvenirs. There is a game room and multiple bath houses(which we didn’t use). The park’s roadways are all paved and easy to navigate. Despite being nearly filled to capacity including tons of young children, the park was quiet each night with no noisy ‘bad campers.’ 

      We found our interactions with the staff to be helpful and attentive. We really appreciate friendly staff. 

      Overall, this was a great stay at a great RV park. I’d only mention two negatives, neither was a big deal. It took 45-minutes to check-in. In fairness, we arrived at check-in time(3:00 PM) on a Sunday. There were a dozen other RVs checking in at the same time and they just weren’t equipped for that. Also, our Verizon cell service was practically non-existent and the park’s wifi service was just as horrible. If we needed connectivity, this would have been a major problem. I reduced a star in my review simply because it’s 2021 and wifi has become an expectation. 

      We booked on campspot.com and paid$196 per night+$35 to lock our site+$2 booking fee less a 20% promo discount.


    Guide to Ancramdale

    Cabin rentals around Ancramdale occupy the eastern edge of New York's Taconic Mountains where elevations range between 700-1,500 feet. The rental season typically operates from May through mid-October, with most campgrounds closing after the Columbus Day weekend. Winter temperatures often drop below freezing, explaining the seasonal operation of most camping facilities in this region.

    What to do

    Hiking at Bash Bish Falls: Access the trailhead directly from Taconic State Park, where multiple trails connect to the popular waterfall. "Great campground, friendly staff, great trails around it. Would come back," notes Priscilla M., highlighting the convenient trail access.

    Swimming in natural settings: Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground features a swimming beach with lifeguards during summer months. According to Seth K., "The campground has a lake with boat rentals. Late night, stargazing over the lake is a great pastime, because the water is calm and the light pollution is low."

    Paddleboarding and kayaking: Many local lakes offer rentals or permit bringing your own equipment. "Expect to pay $15 fee (I think) to use your paddleboards/kyacks etc. Worth every penny," reports Mellisa T. about Lake Taghkanic's water access program.

    What campers like

    Privacy levels at different sites: Campgrounds often have varying degrees of seclusion between sites. At Mills Norrie State Park Campground, "Sites are large and spread nicely. There are great hiking trails on the Hudson River right outside your campsite," according to Michael G.

    Water features: Many campers appreciate waterfront locations. Frank D. notes about Waubeeka Family Campground: "The tent area is a small dirt cul-de-sac off to the side between some trailers and the bathrooms... behind is all woods and when you are in that section you do have an OK level of isolation and natural surroundings."

    Historical attractions: The region contains significant historical sites within driving distance. Jean C. notes that Interlake RV Park & Campground is "convenient for exploring the Hyde Park area, in particular the FDR National Historic Site (20-30 minutes away) and the Walkway over the Hudson."

    What you should know

    Weekend crowding: During peak season, weekends can become very busy. John E. suggests about Taconic State Park: "This was a truly great campground, but it's proximity to NYC draws large crowds on weekends... Very nice campground, but I'd avoid weekends."

    Bathhouse conditions: Facilities vary widely between campgrounds. Rebecca Y. reports about Mills Norrie State Park: "The campground was nicely maintained... Rangers running the place were pleasant and informative."

    Train noise: Some campgrounds near the Hudson River experience train noise. Rebecca Y. mentions at Mills Norrie State Park: "It was situated right across the Hudson River from a highly active nighttime freight train route, and the noise from the horns and then being awake for a few minutes as the train clattered by."

    Weather preparedness: The Taconic region experiences variable weather patterns. Rosie R. notes at Lake Taghkanic: "This was our second time coming to this campground and our second time getting dumped on by the rain, but have no fear!! The platforms kept us off the ground and were helpful in setting up appropriate tarp protection!"

    Tips for camping with families

    Kid-friendly amenities: Look for campgrounds with dedicated recreational facilities. Amanda D. from Lone Oak Camp Sites states: "There's a full bar with adult only dancing up stairs in the lounge Saturday nights, and a DJ playing dance music for the younger crowed down stairs. The pools are beautiful, great store and the activities are plenty."

    Swimming options: Several campgrounds offer supervised swimming. Erin B. mentions at Taconic State Park: "2 lIfeguarded swimming areas — a kiddie pool and a deep area with floating dock to jump off of."

    Off-peak visits: For quieter family camping experiences, consider weekdays when possible. George L. notes about Lake Taghkanic: "We went on weekdays which is not crowded. Wal-Mart was 25 minutes from the campsite which make making meals lots simpler."

    Playgrounds and fields: Many campgrounds provide dedicated play spaces. Mary-Kate L. reports about Lake Taghkanic: "Big and spacious state park with many camping options... Big lake with swimming and boating as well as many hiking trails... Fire pits are great."

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection: Choose sites based on your specific needs and preferences. C O. shares about Rip Van Winkle Campgrounds: "Very easy to level and setup on #7. Full connections. Pay showers and laundry onsite. Loved having gated security."

    Utilities availability: Verify what hookups are available at your selected site. April L. notes about Brook N Wood Family Campground: "The C section (30 amp) has some shade trees and all grassy sites. Shared hook ups (two sites on one pole) at the rear of the sites with the exception of sewer."

    Winter storage: Most campgrounds in the region close for winter, requiring removal of your RV. Kathy G. values at Rip Van Winkle that "The campground is centrally located you many things to do... full hookups are the cherry on top."

    Cell coverage: Some RVers need reliable internet for work. C O. confirms at Rip Van Winkle: "Cell coverage was good for us to work (att & Verizon)."
