    Willow Bay Recreation Area

    Quiet nights, Easy days

    Willow bay campground is run by the National Forest Service. The reservable lots are wide and numerous for a out of the way sight. The campground services tent sites, RV sites as well as small cabins with electricity. There is a central bathhouse near the oak loop. Closer to the boat ramp sites- most of which are tent ready, there are vault toilets. These sites are less than a mile from the North Country Trail. Other, smaller trails are here as well. The New York State lone is less than five miles away- providing access to Allegheny State Park. The closest town of note is Bradford, which is about 18 miles away. It has all you need to get your necessities. The cabins were small- one twin bed and a set of single bunks. You need to bring your own sheets. There is a small heater imbedded in the wall. It keeps things from getting too cold, as it was when I was there. Fire ring and picnic table provided. Charcoal grill as well. The only problem I had was with the wildlife. A mouse or something kep crawling in the space between the roof and ceiling. There is no cel service here, and you shouldn’t need it either. Places to visit are too numerous to mention, but I will give a shout out to the zippo case museum, absolutely a must.

    Evangola State Park Campground

    Great campground

    We stayed here three nights to ride out a heat wave and really liked it. Sites are electric only, with a dump station available at the entrance and one in the campground loop. There are potable water spigots throughout the campground, where you awkwardly pull over to the side of the road and fill your tank. Sites are pretty much wide open, with zero separation between you and your neighbor. Most are out in direct sun but the ones along the edge have some tree cover and shade. 

    There are yurts here as well, and a playground, and a huge disc golf course. You can walk to the beach from the campground (dogs aren’t allowed on the beach). The nature center is right in the campground, by the basketball and tennis courts. 

    Showers were dirty and buggy, but they’re free and you can actually choose your own water temperature. NY State campgrounds require proof of rabies vaccinations for your dogs.

     Good cell reception for Verizon, ATT wasn’t great but the cell booster helped. Trash bins, but no recycling. Beautiful sunset on the lake.

    Dewdrop

    Spacious

    Campsite layouts are non traditional with large driveways and often times the tables and fire rings are below the driveway.  With this layout you get more privacy with very few sites having and overlapping with other sites. Pitching a tent was easy on the driveway and fairly level. Some sites had large high sided fire rings which take away from the fireside relaxation of a shorter camp chair. 

    Bathrooms and shower house was below the standards of many of PA State Parks which we regard as the benchmark for campgrounds at reasonable prices. 

    Boating and biking all accessible from the grounds. No need to drive to the trails at Jakes Rocks.

    Quaker Area — Allegany State Park State Park

    Quaker Area- Buffalo Cabin #8

    We head out to Allegany State Park every year in late fall. The cabins are perfect for cooler temperatures and cozying up beside the wood stove. The table and chairs provided inside the cabin are perfect for eating on and prepping food. 

     The buffalo trail is perfect for a weekend getaway, with Cabin 8 far in the corner, providing lots of space between nearby cabins. It is also beside the river and provides a wonderful sound to fall asleep to.

    Shower facilities are just down the road and were very clean! The bathroom facilities on the buffalo cabin loop are also equally clean and warm in the colder temperatures!

    Bova Cottages — Allegany State Park

    A lot of space

    The water is easy to find, bathrooms are available with showers, and the options are tents, cabins, or RV camping. Do not leave food out. The bears are very ambitious.

    Willow Bay Recreation Area

    Willow Bay

    The camp grounds were great. Staff was very helpful and nice. Camp sites were decently spaced out. Fire wood was priced fairly well but they don’t usually deliver($).and they sell worms at the gate along with ice.

    The RVs had their own loop and tents and cabins were on the water down a wooded trail.

    The reason this was 4/5 is because you have to unload the car then walk everything to the camp. There is no drive up access for tent camping. A wagon is highly encouraged

    Additionally, vault toilets on the tent side and plumbing and showers on the RV side. Bathrooms were very clean and didn’t smell, the showers were hot.

    I saw some boats anchored at sites which I thought was nice. I also got to peek into a cabin and it was pretty cozy.

    Evangola State Park Campground

    Some Sites Have a View of Lake Erie

    Unfortunately, my site did not.

    However, my site wasn't crowded and the electricity was reliable. This campground has three loops. One has 30 amp power, one has 50 amp power (with a 30 amp outlet on the same pedestal) and the third loop is for tent camping. There are several places to get water in the camp, so be sure to fill up your tanks before you park. There is a dump station. None of the sites are full hook up.

    Each site has a picnic table and a grill.

    There are two bath houses. The newer one - between loops one and three - also has laundry facilities.

    Your payment for your campsite entitles you to admission to the beach, which is a hike or a drive away.

    HTR Niagara Campground

    Very Nice and Big Rig Friendly

    We stayed here for five days and had a blast. Gravel roads and pads but level and no issues with mud (it rained). Several laundry rooms, bathrooms, cabins, playground, pond to fish in, paddle boat and bike rentals.

Guide to Brocton

Cabin accommodations near Brocton, New York typically operate from May through October, with most facilities closing for winter months. Lake Erie State Park features electric sites at elevations of approximately 650 feet above the lake. The region experiences moderate summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F during peak camping months, with cooler nighttime temperatures requiring extra layers even in summer.

What to do

Reservoir activities: Willow Bay Recreation Area offers excellent waterfront access for boating and fishing. "We saw lots of wildlife (black squirrels, rabbits and birds). The beach was not close to our campsite but I drove there before checking out and walked the dog again. It was a rocky walk along the sand but a beautiful area with a playground," notes one visitor to Willow Bay Recreation Area.

Biking opportunities: The campgrounds around Brocton provide excellent terrain for cycling enthusiasts. A camper at Lake Erie State Park Campground observed, "Don't forget your bicycles because the campground and surrounding area is great for riding."

Hiking trails: Allegany State Park offers extensive trail networks for all skill levels. "The hiking trails were beautiful and well-marked, the check-in process was easy, and it was a wonderful campground!" reports a visitor to Red House Area — Allegany State Park.

What campers like

Lakefront views: Campsites with water views rank among the most popular options for cabin camping near Brocton. "Short walk from campsite to the lake. Try to see sunset!" recommends a Lake Erie State Park visitor who gave the park five stars.

Spacious sites: Many campgrounds in the area provide adequate separation between sites. "The sites are spacious and cabins are also available to rent. Staff are friendly and helpful. You'll get a chance to relax as there is no cell service or wifi available," writes a Willow Bay camper.

Clean facilities: HTR Niagara Campground maintains exceptional cleanliness standards. "The bathrooms were seriously nicer than most home bathrooms. Beautiful! Grounds were very well kept & staff friendly. There is also a unique salt water pool and activity hut."

What you should know

Off-grid experience: Cell coverage varies significantly across the region's camping areas. A camper at Willow Bay reported, "First of all, the Hemlock loop has literally zero Verizon coverage. If you walk up to the entrance of the loop, you'll get 2 bars."

Water access considerations: Some cabin locations require water planning. "The water hookups are NOT at each site, but there is one CLOSE to each site, so you can run your house over, fill your tank, and disconnect," notes a visitor to Lake Erie State Park.

Cabin size variations: Cabins around Brocton range from basic to more developed. At Quaker Area — Allegany State Park, "The cabins are awesome all year round. The park has a lot to do in the summer but a group can still have a blast in the winter."

Tips for camping with families

Playground options: Several facilities offer play areas for children. At Chautauqua Lake KOA, "This campground is very well taken care of, and huge! We did not take advantage of all of the amenities available, but the bathroom was great."

Kid-friendly activities: Many campgrounds schedule regular programming. "The camp grounds were great. Staff was very helpful and nice. Camp sites were decently spaced out. Fire wood was priced fairly well but they don't usually deliver($) and they sell worms at the gate along with ice," notes a Willow Bay visitor.

Swimming opportunities: Pools and lake beaches provide swimming options during summer months. "We've been coming to this campground since I was a kid, and love the fact that you can have the amenities of home away from home. There is so much to do there including catching crayfish, fishing, going to the amphitheater, hiking, and so much more."

Tips from RVers

Site selection: Choose sites based on your specific needs. "We stayed on site A23 for a week in mid-July. The campground was busy, but not over-crowded. The campground itself is well maintained and the shower houses are clean. There are tent and RV sites available, with 15/30/50 amp electric service."

Setup considerations: Some sites have uneven terrain. At Willow Bay, "We stayed at Hemlock #56. The fresh water spigot was at the end of our driveway, which is on a slight incline. A couple of extra tongue blocks would've been useful since the site slopes in the front and at the back."

Seasonal timing: For the best experience, plan your visit during optimal periods. "Just returned from staying over the weekend at this campground with my dog and had a great time. We stayed in a non-electric site in my campervan and it was perfect. There is comfortable space between each campsite in most cases plus lots of trees for shade."
