Creek n Wood Campground in Bloomfield permits pets at all sites with electric hookups and water access. Dogs must remain leashed throughout the grounds, with owners responsible for waste cleanup. Letchworth State Park Campground, located about 30 minutes southwest, restricts pets to three specific camping loops that fill quickly due to their popularity among dog owners. The campground enforces a two-dog limit per site, which excludes some campers with multiple pets. Both campgrounds provide picnic tables and fire rings at each site, with Creek n Wood offering trash collection and Letchworth featuring recently updated restroom and shower facilities.
Trails surrounding Ontario County Park at Gannett Hill welcome leashed dogs on all paths except the gorge trail itself, where pets are prohibited for safety reasons. Many campers with dogs appreciate the dog park at Finger Lakes RV Resort, which provides dedicated off-leash exercise space after long travel days. The park's fenced area allows dogs to run freely while owners socialize. Jellystone Park of Western New York includes a spacious dog park among its extensive amenities, though pet owners should note that wildlife encounters are possible in the wooded camping areas. Veterinary services are available in Canandaigua, approximately 15 minutes from Bloomfield, for emergency pet care during camping trips.

TravelerWonderful location and marvelous hosts. We were welcomed with chocolate chip cookies as we checked in. Bathrooms were beautiful and clean. Two wineries we could walk to and dozens more nearby. Our site was spacious and the dog park gave our pups plenty of time off leash. We definitely plan on returning.
RangerWatkins Glen boasts one of New York’s most beautiful state parks! I last camped here in 2012 and absolutely loved hiking along the gorges. Also- the camping was next to perfect. Sites are decently sized and well secluded from one another.
in addition, the park is so well situated within the Finger Lakes and all the various wine trails! Made for a perfect girls weekend! Definitely recommend!
GuideReally nice staff! Free putt putt. Clean! So much to do. There is a dog park as well!
GuideI absolutely love coming to Watkins Glen Campground, especially when I went to get away from the busy city. This park has gorgeous waterfalls, and great paths to walk and hike on. It's located in Upstate New York, so it's close enough to the city but you feel like you are far away from the city. The campsites are great, clean and well kept. This park does get pretty busy though, because it is open to campers and people who just want to visit for the day to walk the trails. I love that they have trails that lead very close to the waterfalls..lots of rim trails that literally overlook the waterfalls and gorges. In the campground they do offer a pool, which again, does get busy because it's open to everyone regardless if you are camping or not. There also is tours you can take in the summer that will take you along the waterfalls and gorge, they have a playground for kids and an area with picnic tables. I went mid July and it was extremely busy, not sure when a good time to go during the summer when it's not as busy. That was the only downside I would say, is how crowded it was. There is also Seneca Lake nearby that many people go to fish in, however I didn't go on this trip but plan to next time. There are restrooms on site, however I didn't think they were that clean. Toilet paper and seat covers were out in most stalls, so I would advise to bring your own when you go. There is also some gift shops and food stands set up...one food stand has some pretty good hot dogs! The hikes to the gorge and waterfalls is pretty well maintained, however there are quite a bit of stairs. There were some people with kids in strollers that had to turn around because the stairs made it difficult. Not handicap friendly. I would advise to wear a good pair of walking shoes, and not sandals because it is slippery in some spots and again, a lot of stairs! I would highly recommend coming here, even if you don't decide to stay the night!
LegendLetchworth State Park is known as the Grand Canyon of the East and is located in Mt. Morris New York. My husband and I visited regularly when we lived near Rochester, NY. The park is stunning and is fit for camping whether you’re in a tent, RV or choosing to rent a gorgeous cabin. There are many walking and hiking trails for adventurers of all types. Make sure you bring your camera as the views are all photo worthy. The camping price is right due to the fact that the park is run by the state. A great place to stay especially in the Summer!!

ScoutWe have camped at Letchworth State Park for nearly 30 years. Recent updates to playground equipment and restroom/shower facilities have brought the amenities into the 21st century. The price is reasonable, and the park is a gem. A couple cons to consider: pets only allowed in three loops. Quite often, pet loop reservations are maxed quickly. There is a two dog limit, which excludes many campers. If you are used to private campgrounds, realize that services are limited here. Mediocre camp store and laundry; both get the job done, but leave a lot to be desired.
GuideDefinitely one of the top places to camp and visit in New York, Watkins Glen State Park never disappoints. Each time I come back, I find something new to discover and have a great time doing that. Pair awesome trails and camping space with world class wineries up the lake, you cannot go wrong.

A short drive from Keuka Lake State Park Campground leads to award-winning wineries. As Helen H. explains, "It is an easy drive around Keuka Lake which is surrounded by award winning wineries, breweries and distilleries."
Gorge hiking: Located about an hour from Bloomfield, the dramatic rock formations at Watkins Glen offer unique hiking opportunities. "The gorge trail is a MUST," writes Laura L., who stayed at the park with a 30-foot motorhome. The trail features 19 waterfalls through narrow stone passages, making it suitable for hikers seeking moderate challenges.
Clean, updated facilities: Visitors appreciate the well-maintained bathrooms at Ontario County Park at Gannett Hill. "The washrooms facility is very close and speaking for the men's side, it had 2 stalls, 2 urinals, 2 showers, multiple sinks, and a sturdy baby changing station," reports Dayne B. This attention to cleanliness enhances the camping experience.
Family-oriented activities: The Canandaigua-Rochester KOA offers numerous entertainment options for families. According to Rich L., "The campground has so much to do between swimming, golf, bike and paddle boat rentals. There's Ziplines with treetop walk and a bounce. And even a play area for your dogs." These amenities keep children engaged throughout their stay.
Wildlife viewing opportunities: Quiet campsites attract various wildlife, creating natural educational experiences. Jenise P. notes about her tent site at KOA: "My tent site here is next to a little grove of trees where I counted 12 species of birds this morning." These wildlife encounters occur naturally without disturbing animal habitats.
Site leveling requirements: Some campgrounds require additional equipment for RV setups. At Conesus Lake Campground, terrain challenges may require preparation. "The campground is on a very steep hill so it is difficult to walk around," explains Sydney W., while Marissa R. adds, "The hill is a killer! But that problem was solved by renting a golf cart!"
Seasonal operation limitations: Most campgrounds close by mid-October and reopen in late April or early May. Letchworth State Park operates from "May 6 to October 16," which means fall color enthusiasts should plan their visits accordingly.
Tent site privacy varies: While RV sites tend to be more open, tent areas often provide more seclusion. At Watkins Glen, Lindsay C. observes, "The campsites are great and are all tree lined giving to a bit of privacy. As much as you get in campgrounds."
Playground access: Multiple campgrounds feature play areas for children, with varying levels of maintenance. At Canandaigua-Rochester KOA, Sparks N. notes, "Pros - lots for the kids - events - staff is fabulous -facilities are good shape. Cons -playground equipment is outdated."
Swimming options: Stay Bristol Woodlands offers a pool for family swimming. "Didn't get to try the pool out as it was a quick stopover, but this seems like a fun place to spend some time," writes Justine I. Nearby Canandaigua Lake also provides swimming beaches within 15 minutes of Bloomfield.
Ease of fishing for kids: Some locations specifically cater to young anglers. Amy T. describes Canandaigua-Rochester KOA as having "a pond where the fish are easy to catch with hotdogs!" This creates successful fishing experiences even for beginners.
Hookup locations: At some campgrounds, utility connections may be positioned awkwardly. Sparks N. mentions at Canandaigua-Rochester KOA: "Our water hook up was in the middle of someone's site," indicating the need to check connection locations before settling in.
Site size considerations: Red's Twilight on the Erie RV Resort offers full hookups but requires careful site selection. Donna C. advises, "Almost all of the sites are not even close to level. Not a big issue with a fifth wheel but a real hassle with a motorcoach. We changed sites three times and finally resigned ourselves to not being leveled."
Seasonal camper presence: Many campgrounds host a mix of overnight and seasonal campers. Ryan D. notes about Country Charm Campground, "Seasonal people seem very nice and willing to chat with you. There is not many overnight sites but all in all a nice campground."
