    Robert H. Treman State Park Campground

    Good location

    Location: This park is close to Ithaca which was the best part. Trails and Natural Features: We loved the waterfall, swimming area (seasonal so closed when we stayed), and the fall colors. Sites: They have very few electric sites so we decided to boondock. It surprised me that all the full hookup sites were reserved but very people actually showed up for their reservations while we stayed. Lame. And heads up that if you don’t stay in the big clearing for big rigs, there are tight turns between trees to get in and out of the non-electric sites. We ended up making a back-in site into a pull-through site… whoops. Starlink: I work remotely so internet is important. We weren’t camping in the clearing because those sites were booked, but even the Starlink struggled where we were and I ended up working from the library in town. So heads up if you need internet. Bathrooms: They were spacious but older. Temperature in the showers was tricky. Hot is cold and cold it hot. Cool stuff: They had compost bins and provide bags for all campers. That’s cool!

    Chenango Valley State Park Campground

    Well maintained NY state campground; good for family camping

    We were just passing through on a rainy night, but this park would be a good choice for a multi-night stay. 

    Activities for a Multi-Day Stay

    • Swimming in the lake, golfing, boating, fishing, multi-use trails for hiking or mountain biking

    • You're only about 20 minutes from the Binghamton/Johnson City area. For us, that means food and craft beer.

    Sites in the Chipmunk Camping Area

    • Parking pads in the non-electric section are dirt/grass. Some of the pads are short; this section is geared toward tent campers. We found a site long enough to easily accommodate our vehicle and teardrop trailer (30 ft total) since we didn't want to detach for a one night stay. Even if the pad wasn't that long, there are other pads wide enough to handle a vehicle and trailer like ours side by side.

    • Parking pads in the electric loops (30 amps and 50 amps) have a good amount of gravel.

    • We usually prefer sites on the outer part of a loop, and this was no exception. The sites have more trees.

    Amenities

    • Electricity at about 1/3 of the sites

    • Pretty good restrooms/showers

    • Water spigots on the loops and more water at the dump station

    • Trash disposal

    • Playground at the beach area, not the campground

    Wildlife

    • Beware of raccoons. They are brazen thieves here...and every campground they inhabit. Just don't leave your food out.

    • The park brochure warns of the occasional bear but that's true even in towns all over NY. I doubt you'll see one.

    • Deer are all over. Watch out for them on the roads. We had four that were feeding behind our site in the morning.

    Finger Lakes RV Resort

    Beautiful new spacious RV resort in excellent location.

    We arrived on Saturday, 10.8.22 and are staying for a week. This is a delightful location. Rachel and Doug are cheerful, attentive, and very personable owners who are on-site at almost all times. This park just opened this year, so we checked in at an entrance building that they're using until their primary building is complete. We were greeted with delicious cookies, our site(#9) backs up to a wooded area(with a hiking path buried in there) with a lot of space. We booked early, which was a good thing because they were 100% full for Indigenous People's Day. We chose this site because there was a lot of room around it and we're used to really tightly packed RV parks. But what we found is that all of the sites are very nicely spread out with generous spacing, so that's not an issue. It's still nice to be on the outskirts. We also chose this section per a review we read to be away from the main road noise, but there really isn't much road noise to worry about, anyway. The WiFi is strong and consistent. We're using 30amps, but they also have 20 and 50amp service to each site. The water pressure is great. The bath house is new and very comfortable. Each site has a picnic table, a fire ring and lots of room for big rigs. We watched Doug neaten up sites after other RV's vacated, which shows an attention to detail we don't often find. They also drive by each site every morning to collect trash and recycling. The sunsets are spectacular over the lake(we can't see the lake from here, but it's close). There are numerous award-winning wineries surrounding us and up and down the lake. We're headed out for tastings today. We've been hiking the last few days- Watkins Glen State Park- Gorge Trail(go early or it gets REALLY crowded), Taughannock State Park- Gorge& North Ridge Trail over on Cayuga Lake, and a concert(Rufus Wainwright) at Point of the Bluff Winery over on Keuka Lake. We stopped afterward for dinner in Hammondsport at Timber Stone Grill which was truly wonderful. That's about 35- 45 minutes away. Lots more hiking trails to do in the National Forest and surrounding areas. And there's Watkins Glen, a charming town just minutes away. We highly recommend Finger Lakes RV Resort and we'll be back!

    Blueberry Patch Campground — Green Mountain & Finger Lakes National Forests

    Simple

    The only Finger Lakes National Forest designated campground, Blueberry Patch offers a secluded experience in the heart of this sometimes overlooked beautiful geographic region in the State of New York. This campground offers a simple experience, with fire rings and picnic tables at each site and seems to accommodate just tent and small campers. Vault toilets available. On a week day in early summer, 3 of the 9 campsites we’re occupied. Can see it filling up on weekends. Enjoy!

    The Villages RV Park at Turning Stone

    Great One Night Stop - Would Have Stayed Longer!

    We scheduled a pull through for 1 night last minute due to an unexpected change in plans. We are a full-time traveling family (2 kids - 8 & 13) and 2 English Bulldogs. We have a Class A motorhome and flat tow a Jeep. The campground was beautiful and easy to get in and out of. The sites were level and great size with nice spacing in between. The location was nice too! We did head over to the casino briefly and enjoyed that. We also took a drive to the University of Syracuse to tour the campus. Clean and wonderful park. Would definitely recommend.

    Blueberry Patch Campground — Green Mountain & Finger Lakes National Forests

    Quietest Place on Earth

    Small and quiet national forest campground, just about 20 minutes from the hustle and bustle of both Ithaca and Watkins Glen. We woke up to thrushes singing and fell asleep to nightingales and owls calling!  Sites are basic with a picnic table and fire ring. Two pit toilets and trash/recycling are available, but no drinking water (also no streams for filtering water…so come prepared). Some sites can accommodate longer RV’s and some are perfect for tents.  All sites have quite a bit of shade and privacy as they are lined with trees and shrubs.

    The best part about this campground is you are perfectly situated in the heart of the NY wine country!  Seneca Lake is just a couple miles west and has more wineries than you can possibly visit. Our favorite was Catharine Valley Winery…great wine, fun atmosphere, and gorgeous view of the vineyards and lake. 

    Also, with the help of a local, we found Smith Memorial Park – a great place to launch our kayaks and make some dinner at the beach. Their campground is currently closed for renovations, but there is a boat launch/docks, picnic pavilion, and a lovely view of the sunset.

    No reservations, first-come first served.

    Robert H. Treman State Park Campground

    Robert H. Treman State Park, NY

    Located in Tompkins County, Ithaca New York has beautiful gorges and hiking trails. Robert Treman is a treat and a gorgeous place to camp in the Ithaca, NY area. There are endless waterfalls, hiking trails, fishing holes and bird watching opportunities. The campground has bathrooms, showers, picnic tables, a playground and a dump station. There are cabins, tents and rv sites, some of which are handicapped accessible. Ithaca is also packed with wineries and the finger lakes. A great place to visit!

    Butternut Hill RV Campground

    Choose Butternut Hill for special local events!

    This is a small campground set up on the periphery of Butternut Hill farm which is located on the main Route 20 in Bouckville NY.  At the time I submitted my review, I was not able to make edits on the basic campground listing;   I am not sure why the Dyrt platform wouldnt let me update the important details, but you can get more info and make reservations on the campground webpage which is here: 

    https://butternuthill.net/

    The campground is in a convenient location in Bouckville,  a small upstate NY village with a concentration of numerous antique shops, which is a draw for collectors in the area. There is also a famous Inn and restaurant, the Landmark Inn, which anchors the town, adjacent to a trailhead for a hiking trail along the historic Chenango Canal, an offshoot of the Erie Canal. 

    The meadows and fields of Butternut Hill are the superb festival setting for several regional events, including several Antique shows, the Central New York Fiber Festival, a craft fair and a car show, events that are scheduled a few times a month throughout the summer. 

    The campground is adjacent to the festival fields, lining a forest edge with expansive views of the surrounding valley. During special events, vendors and exhibitors have a convenient and inexpensive place to stay that is not far from the exhibit tents and festival fields, but people attending the events can stay there too, or campsites may be reserved at other times through the summer, on a daily, weekly or even monthly basis. 

    Many of the sites are for RV's, which have electric and water hookups along with a picnic table and fire pit; rates fro these rang $40-50. There are also primitive tent sites which have a grassy tent area and fire pit but no picnic table and cost  $30 per night. There is a cozy log camper cabin available, at a very inexpensive price of $60 per night (bring your own linens). All camping spots are in close walking distance to the bath house, which has water, showers, and bathrooms. (Additional porta potties are set up during festival events.)  

    I was there during the Fiber Festival, and I was impressed at how well organized the programing was, and how clean everything was despite large attendance. In addition, it rained really hard one day of the event, and though the access roads got a little muddy, the campsites seem well drained and did not get muddy. The campsites all back to the woods on the west side, so this serves as a good windbreak too. 

    The campground office has some basic camping supplies available, but an advantage of being there during a festival event was a nice food tent and a variety of food trucks offering delicious fare!  If you were coming from a distance to attend one of the local special events, this is a good place to stay, though of course busy during the day. If you wanted to camp here at a non event time, you would find it to be a quiet pastoral location with access to some hiking and fishing spots in close proximity. For staying in the area, the camper cabin would be a great all-weather option if you can get it!


Guide to Apulia Station

The region experiences distinct seasons with warm summers ideal for camping from May through October, when most campgrounds operate.

What to do

Hiking trails: Near Spruce Row Campground, visitors can access numerous trails within a 30-minute drive. The campground serves as a convenient base for exploring natural areas, though one camper noted: "This is a very large campground. Lots of golf carts whizzing around and due to our campsite location they unfortunately were able to shine their lights on us every time they turned the corner after dark."

Water recreation: Pine Valley RV Park & Campground offers lake activities with various water amenities included in your stay fee. "From boating, to giant swimming inflatables, putt putt even a giant slide. All part of the price of the campground," reports one visitor. The lake provides swimming opportunities during summer months.

Winery visits: Stay at Finger Lakes RV Resort for easy access to local wineries. "They are bookended by two wineries with walking paths from the campground," notes one camper. Another adds: "Two wineries are even walkable! We chose this site because there was a lot of room around it and we're used to really tightly packed RV parks."

What campers like

Spacious sites: At The Villages RV Park at Turning Stone, campers appreciate the room between sites. One reviewer stated: "The sites were level and great size with nice spacing in between. The location was nice too! We did head over to the casino briefly and enjoyed that."

Farm camping experience: Woonton Family Farms offers a different camping style than commercial campgrounds. "We had an excellent stay at the farm of the Woonton Family Farms with our RV, it was a cozy and beautiful campsite with personal attention of the owner. We had a great campfire, fresh blackberries and the option of canoeing," shared one guest.

Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention facility cleanliness at many area campgrounds. At Finger Lakes RV Resort, a camper noted: "Bathhouse was pristine and the sites were level and spacious. Still a new campground so we can't wait to return once all the landscaping has grown in." Another added: "The bath house is immaculate and rivals those at Fort Wilderness Resort."

What you should know

Seasonal operations: Most campgrounds near Apulia Station only operate during warm months. Pine Valley RV Park is open "May 1 to September 30," while others like Owasco Hill RV Campground run from "May 15th to October 15th. Off season may be available on request."

Site types vary: Butternut Hill RV Campground offers a mix of camping options. "Many of the sites are for RV's, which have electric and water hookups along with a picnic table and fire pit; rates for these range $40-50. There are also primitive tent sites which have a grassy tent area and fire pit but no picnic table and cost $30 per night."

Road noise factors: When selecting your site, consider proximity to roads. At Finger Lakes RV Resort, one visitor mentioned: "We also chose this section per a review we read to be away from the main road noise, but there really isn't much road noise to worry about, anyway."

Tips for camping with families

Activity options: Family-friendly campgrounds offer various amenities. Pine Valley stands out with one camper stating: "This is by far one of the best family oriented campgrounds we've ever been in. So many things for kids to do. From boating, to giant swimming inflatables, putt putt even a giant slide."

Playground access: The Villages RV Park provides recreation areas for children. A camper noted: "For activities, there are some great hikes around the campground, as well as excellent playgrounds, fishing, an awesome pool, and of course, free shuttle rides to the Turning Stone Casino right up the street."

Space considerations: When camping with kids, site size matters. At Butternut Hill, a reviewer reported: "The campsites all back to the woods on the west side, so this serves as a good windbreak too." This feature helps families create a more protected camping environment.

Tips from RVers

Hookup availability: Full hookup sites near Apulia Station offer varying amenities. One RVer staying at Streamside RV Park noted: "We had full hook up. The sites are tight like most RV parks. We paid $37.50 for a one night stay. That is a good price for full hook up."

WiFi strength: Internet access varies significantly between campgrounds. At Finger Lakes RV Resort, a camper reported: "Wifi was strong enough to do work calls" while another mentioned "The WiFi is strong and consistent. We're using 30amps, but they also have 20 and 50amp service to each site."

Leveling needs: Site conditions impact setup time. A visitor to Finger Lakes RV Resort shared: "Easy maneuverability, great wifi and water pressure, along with level sites make it a great place to stay." This reduces the need for extensive leveling equipment when camping near Apulia Station.
