GuideIt's no wonder they call this park the Grand Canyon of the East! This is a vast green oasis with grandeur to spare.
Pro's:
- Glen Iris Inn was a treat. It is right next to the middle falls, which to me were like the Niagara Falls' little sister. So spectacular.
- The restrooms on loop 100 were newish and great. All singleton-style restrooms and some with showers.
- Really, just everything. Wish we could have stayed longer!
Con's:
- I heard someone complain about the lack of cell service, but to me this is secretly a Pro! :)
- Oh and having to use ReserveAmerica to book the site was is a bit of nuisance.
TravelerCampground is clean & beautiful. Our site (#165) is right next to the lake. The showers are warm. The toilets are pretty clean. The water spigot closest to us is not working.
TravelerThe staff at check-in were incredibly friendly, sharing with me their favorite hikes and viewpoints. My golden retriever and I settled into our site in the 100 loop which was spacious and clean. The restroom and showers were immaculate. The road running the length of the park was flanked by miles of stone walls constructed by the CCC. All paths were well maintained gravel.
ScoutAbsolutely stunning campground, our phone service does not really work here (Verizon) and the internet did not work last night either, but as long as you have star link I’m sure you will be fine. And internet is working fine this morning. Loved this little piece of heaven on the lake!
GuideStayed here in our Class B. Had a nice site in loop 4. Only complaint really is other guests cranking some kind of contemporary R&B with very loud bass, like we should all like their music. 4 sites away, it was pretty loud. The hiking, the falls were great. Tons to do, spectacular views. The park is 17 miles long folks. Camping is north, the falls are south. You can hike all the way down. Its perhaps one of the most impressive displays of CCC work i have seen. Stone tables, picnic pavilions, walls, steps, just amazing work and maintained nicely. Check is easy, plenty of places for trash, fresh water. Showers were not bad, two per building per gender. Of course i picked one that backed up so i was in standing water. I reported it and 24 hours later it was the same. Oh well it was hot and felt great and i didn’t get hoof and mouth disease or anything. One thing - MAJOR league poison ivy , everywhere, surrounding every campsite. Beware.
LegendWe spent a long weekend at HTR Niagara to visit Niagara Falls and Canada. Wow, are we glad we did!
WHAT I LIKED:
— This campground is a short drive to Niagara Falls and the Canadian border
— The park is beautiful with a great balance of natural and well-maintained
— Our site was level and clean+ the hookups worked just fine
— Each interaction with staff was friendly and welcoming(that’s no accident)
WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH:
— Just to nitpick, the wifi was too slow for streaming on TV, which we wanted to do on a rainy day
WOULD WE COME BACK?
— Absolutely, this is a great campground with lots to do in a clean and enjoyable setting
RangerLarge well maintained campground with many different types of sites. The staff is amazing and will help you find something - in person or by phone. Our site was tucked into the woods and felt very private. Lake for swimming, fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking. The bathrooms were dated but clean, with warm showers.
GuideVery clean and nice campground. Was there for 3 nights 4 days. Nice pool and facilities. Lots of activities for the kids but my kids mainly like the pool.
Camping options near Batavia, New York span across Western New York's rural landscapes approximately 30-40 miles east of Buffalo. Camping elevations range between 600-1000 feet, with summer temperatures averaging 70-80°F and cooler evenings around 55-60°F. State parks, privately owned campgrounds, and family resorts provide varied camping experiences within 25 miles of Batavia, with peak camping season running May through October.
Hiking at Letchworth State Park: Located about 25 miles from Batavia, Letchworth State Park Campground offers extensive hiking opportunities. "The park itself is fantastic. The campgrounds are basic and very nice given the relatively high popularity. The campsites are in two main areas of the park and further broken down into many different loops. All are close to the gorge/river and wooded, and connect to trails directly from your campsite," notes Harry H.
Fishing and boating: Darien Lakes State Park Campground provides water activities for anglers and boaters. "There are miles of hiking trails, nice 'lakes' to fish and swim in. There is a fairly new Frisbee golf course as well," shares Jeremy H. The park offers a quieter alternative to the nearby theme park.
Swimming and water activities: Multiple pools and water features can be found at family-oriented campgrounds. "The pools and lazy river are beautiful, the zip line is awesome and they have great sites," mentions Amy T. about HTR Niagara Campground.
Spacious sites with privacy: Campers appreciate secluded sites at certain campgrounds. "Clean well spaced sites, Special deals for the park if you stay in the campground. Campers and cabins to rent," reports Sharon C. about Six Flags Darien Lake Campground.
Clean facilities: Maintained bathrooms and showers rank high on camper priorities. "The bathrooms were seriously nicer than most home bathrooms. Beautiful! Grounds were very well kept & staff friendly," shares Erin H. The bathhouse facilities at many campgrounds include single-use restroom/shower areas.
Lake Ontario views: Four Mile Creek State Park Campground provides scenic views of Lake Ontario. "We stayed at site 161 which was fairly shaded and had a large open field with a view of Lake Ontario. Sunsets were beautiful and a lot of campers come to the lake in the evening to watch it," notes Stacia R.
Seasonal operations: Most campgrounds operate from early May through mid-October, with limited availability outside these months. "The season runs May 6 to October 16" for several state parks in the region.
Weekend crowding: Many campgrounds become significantly busier on weekends. "We were there on a weekday, told weekends are busy," reports Carol B. about her experience camping near Batavia.
Noise considerations: Proximity to attractions can mean increased noise levels. "This campground is great if you're into the theme park. The bathrooms were always easy to find and clean. The staff is always very nice and helpful. It was such a fun campground," shares Hannah B. about Six Flags Darien Lake Campground.
Plan for varied weather: Western New York weather can change quickly, especially near water features. "In most states, those without falls like Niagara, this state park would be the pride of the land. With three serious drops in as many miles, the Genesse River winds its way through what locals call the 'Grand Canyon of the East,'" mentions Shari G. about Letchworth State Park.
Book early for premium sites: Popular family campgrounds fill quickly, especially during summer months. "Book early. Bring your hiking shoes & camera. The gorge is spectacular. Try to get to the balloon fest on Memorial Day - and book a flight if you can," advises Rebecca E.
Consider organized activities: Jellystone Park of Western New York offers numerous structured activities. "They have the best fireworks for July 4 and their Halloween weekends are full of fun and fright!" shares Amy T. Halloween weekends are particularly popular at several campgrounds in the area.
Site selection matters: For large RVs, investigate site details before booking. "We chose a back-in 50-amp full hook-up site (M28) at $42/night. All the utilities were placed appropriately so we didn't need any extensions. The water pressure and electric were good," notes Nancy W. about Southwoods RV Resort.
Hookup variations: Different campgrounds offer various levels of hookup options. "Most, if not all, campsites offer electrical and water is available close by," observes Shari G. Some premium sites include sewer hookups while others require use of dump stations.
Campground layouts: Site spacing and arrangement varies significantly between campgrounds. "One downside of this park is that the sites are pretty close and feel a little cramped when the park is full," shares Nancy W. about her RV camping experience near Batavia.
