Best RV Parks & Resorts near Gloversville, NY

RV parks in the Adirondack foothills near Gloversville provide varied options for motorhome travelers. Pine Lake Campground and RV Park in Caroga Lake offers electric hookups with some sites directly on the water, though sewer connections are not available at all sites. "Sites were spacious and clean, with full hookups and easy access," noted one visitor about their experience at Arrowhead Marina & RV Park in Glenville. Alpine Lake RV Resort in Corinth accommodates larger vehicles with its big-rig friendly sites, offering 50-amp electrical service, full hookups, and seasonal operation from May through mid-October. Adirondack Foothills RV Campground in Broadalbin rounds out the options for those seeking proximity to both mountain recreation and local amenities.

Several RV parks in this region have differing seasonal availability, with most operating from May through October while a few remain open year-round. Dump stations are limited at some facilities—Pine Lake Campground provides a sanitary dump but lacks sewer hookups at individual sites. Cell service varies throughout the mountainous terrain, with stronger signals closer to Gloversville proper. Most campgrounds welcome pets but may have specific restrictions or designated areas. A review mentioned that "the majority of tent sites on the water are uneven," suggesting RV campers should inquire about site leveling before booking waterfront locations. Fall foliage season fills parks quickly, requiring advance reservations, particularly for weekend stays. Winter camping options are limited, with Autumn Moon Campground in Middle Grove being one of the few facilities advertising year-round operation.

    Cooperstown KOA

    Nice Park

    This park is located approximately 12.5 miles from downtown Cooperstown and is set in the quiet rural countryside of New York. The mature trees make for beautiful scenery in the fall. There is a mix of sites varying from tent, RV, rental trailers, and camping cabins/cottages/lodges bringing the total number of sites to 120. Back-in and pull-thru sites are available. Site types include full hookup, water and electric, and no hookup with prices varying depending upon site. You can choose between 30/20 or 50 amp electric service. Interior roads are gravel and some site pads are gravel while others are grass. 

    The park is nicely terraced and all the sites are level. Patios were a grassy/dirt area with a picnic table and fire pit. Our site (#41) was a pull-thru but there was no way we could drive our 45’ motorhome forward out of the site because of a large tree and narrow roads. So we ended up having to back out. The free wifi worked well as did our Verizon 4G phone and hotspot. We picked up a dozen or so television channels with our antenna. The park does have a fair amount of trees that would interfere with roof-mounted satellite dishes so you would have to pick your site carefully. But, there are some 30 amp and no hook-up sites that are clear. This is a typical KOA with lots of amenities including a swimming pool(which was closed for the season when we were there), a playground, volleyball court, basketball court, jump house, pavilion, recreation room, bicycle rental, and horseshoes. Showers, restrooms and laundry are also present and clean. There is a propane filling station. While there is no fenced-in dog park there is a pet walking area. The surrounding area is pretty rural and the closest town (Richfield Springs– which is very small) is five miles away and where you will find restaurants, gas station, grocery store, and more. A few miles from the park is a creamery that has a café. 

    Approximately five miles away is Glimmerglass State Park which was great for hiking and kayaking Otsego Lake. There is a also a historic house at the park that you can tour and the country’s oldest covered bridge. Cooperstown is a little over twelve miles away from the park but well worth a trip. Not only is Cooperstown home to the National Baseball Hall of Fame but it is a charming downtown well worth exploring. Other nearby attractions include The Farmers Museum, Fenimore Art Museum, Hero’s of Baseball Wax Museum, Glimmerglass Opera, and Cooperstown Brewing Company.

    Lake George Riverview Campground

    Great River Access

    This campground sits on the Schroon River just a few miles north of downtown Lake George and is very easy to access from I-87. They can accommodate any size camper from the 45’ motorhome with 50 amp service to a tent just wanting electric and water. All sites have cable TV hookup and free WiFi at their site along with a picnic table and fire rings. The park is not huge and it was pretty full so it felt a little cramped for us. There were quite a few seasonal people. Some sites back up to the river so you have a nice view. When the park if full, it can be a little cramped for big-rigs to back into some sites, especially the river ones. There are trees to navigate and some of the spots are tight. 

    Apparently, it is under new management and there are lots of changes that the new owners are proud of. But that also means there is a lot of on-going construction happening in the campground which was pretty annoying. Lots of dust and loud equipment certainly interrupted the thought of a peaceful afternoon outside. Many of the sites in the older section have sand/dirt patios and sandy roads which makes it very dusty. The new area has crushed gravel and lots more room and some pull-thru sites. They have the typical campground amenities like horseshoe pit, pavilion, playground, pool, and camp store. We typically don’t use any of those and they were closed anyway due to Covid-19 safety precautions. Had we stayed longer, we would have taken advantage of the river access and paddled. There is a little beach area and launching paddleboards, canoes, or kayaks would be very easy.  (They also have watercraft available to rent.)  We were more focused on hiking and enjoying the woods.(Recommend the short hike to the“Bear Slide.”) 

    Some of the things we didn’t like was the sandy/dirt which was a mess when it rained. You are supposed to leave your trash at the front of your site but sometimes it was not picked up until late in the day.  We found the bugs to be very pesky in the evening and didn't want to sit outside. Things we liked it the surrounding location and access to hiking trails and the river. Once the construction is complete and grass takes hold in some areas it will be really nice. Downtown Lake George is only about 4-5 miles away.

    Lake George Riverview Campground

    Lots to do

    Stayed 1 night passing thru. Mike and vicki were friendly. Electric and water hookups. WiFi was great. Cable tv hookups, also. Dump station on site was convenient. Also, they had propane there, so I topped off. Beautiful campground. They’ve clearly been upgrading. Roads have fresh gravel. Sites are level and clean. Bathrooms are clean. Get a site on the river 👌🏻. Very close to Lake George activities and attractions.

    Mt. Kenyon Campground - CLOSED

    Good central location to visit the ADK

    Although the campground was right off the road, it's still in a forest with big pine trees and mossy boulders. It was easy to access from 87. Given the proximity to the road, there is road noise, so that doesn't allow for that super outdoorsy experience you might desire. At night though it would get very dark and quiet - there weren't a lot of campers there during our stay. The camphost lives in a home onsite and was mostly helpful. Be sure to mention the 5 nights for 4 deal on their website upfront, otherwise she won't reimburse. Upon working with her to extend our stay, she said people were scheduled to come into our spot. We moved and no one arrived, so that was a bit annoying. 

    To get to the sites, we had to take it a bit slow because there are some low hanging trees and a turn, but made it fine. Our first site, 22, was a back-in, 30 amp, full hook-up. It was a long site with plenty of room for our RV and SUV. We had to back it up to the very end to find the flattest option to level. With the way they have their sites set up, you need a 50 ft hose for water. This site was close to the showerhouse but next to a longterm trailer with crap everywhere and we weren't super thrilled that was our view from our windows in our living area. Our second site, 50, was also a back-in, 30 amp, full hookup. It was very pretty but hard to level. The site slopes up, so the backend was high. We tried about every way to sit our rig in there to level, but we ended up driving our front tires up on some leveling blocks and went up with the jacks as much as we safely could. We didn't get a perfect level, but we decided it was ok since we only had 2 days left. We had to wiggle our SUV in kind of sideways, but it worked.

    There were some "residents" there in tents, which was interesting and a couple longterm trailers (with the typical cluttered lots you see at campgrounds that offer longterm stays). The campground is clean and the shower houses were faithfully cleaned everyday around 11a. Showerhouses were dated, but had super hot water for showers.

    A few miles further down the road is the town of Lake Luzerne. We visited their small grocery which had the basics and we ate at one of the restaurants which had a view of the water (Upriver Cafe). The campground was in a perfect location to visit Lake George and surrounding area (Six Flags, outlet shops, putt-putt, restaurants etc). If you're wanting to explore even more you're only 1.5 hrs to Lake Placid and the Green Mountain National Forest.

    Work was difficult with my husband dependent on AT&T. The Weboost got Verizon working fine, but AT&T was spotty. We had some issues with our RV that we were trying to get fixed locally which extended our stay, otherwise we would have left earlier due to this. The camphost told us that they had invested in some sort of mini Verizon tower for their personal use, so that was what was helping the Verizon signal. The campground offers wifi at the office/pool/rec room area, but when the "residents" come down, it brings it to a snails pace. My husband would go down there in the morning to work and had to go to Starbucks in Lake George at times when all the kids at camp decided to be on their devices at the same time.

    Pool is not heated, so not many people were using it. They charge $2 per garbage bag to be put in their dumpster. They sell a few necessities in their office and firewood. They have laundry with 1 working residential washer $1 and 1 residential dryer $.75 and 1 industrial sized dryer $1. We did a couple loads with no issue. They are outside in a patio area.

    Bring the bug spray. The mosquitos were as big as birds and tenacious!

    Lake George Escape Campground

    Friendly staff n guests, Clean, All around great activities.

    Campground is placed 10 minutes from the bottom of Lake George with great hiking trails in the surrounding area. The campground it’s self it’s very clean in every aspect. On a river with water activities, beach, pool, a BAR, and so many more outdoor activities. Every night there are wagon tours of the campground, staff is seen frequently but very relaxed environment. Very family and pet friendly (They have their own dog park!) This was my 5th summer going up with friends and about our 8th trip overall and every time it’s a great experience!

    Glimmerglass State Park Campground

    Small Campground Close to Attractions

    Upon arrival we were surprised by the limited amount of sites, especially after coming from larger state parks. It wasn't necessarily a bad things for it to be small, but it seemed isolated from the beach, hiking trails, and other unique experiences. Our site(#31) faced directly to site#6 from the other loop. If you are traveling with another group, I would recommend booking these two sites. There is a small, hop-able, stream that runs in between them. Verizon cell service worked well and I was able to work remotely with video calls from our RV. We do have a Pepwave BR1 Max Pro to boost cell signal. We would stay here again to visit Cooperstown and Ommegang.

    Lake George Escape Campground

    Nice all around

    It’s been a few years since we were there last but always enjoyed going here. Facilities were always clean. Campground is pet friendly and have a small dog park. Pool was looking a bit outdated when we were last there but totally functional. We’d go back in a second.

    King Phillip's Campground

    Great spot in Lake George

    This was our second trip to King Philip's Campground. Big resort with tons of seasonal sites and residents. A small pool, and lots of activities for guests. Sites have full hookups including cable tv. Getting the right site here is key. Some have room, privacy, and trees. Others are close together, and out in the open. Great access to Lake George area, just outside of town, which can be nice given all the activities in town.


Guide to Gloversville

RV parks near Gloversville, New York offer access to both the southern Adirondack foothills and Great Sacandaga Lake. Located at approximately 800 feet elevation, the area experiences warm summers with daytime temperatures in the 70s-80s°F and cool evenings, often dropping into the 50s. The region's combination of mountain terrain and lake access creates distinct camping microclimates, with higher elevation sites experiencing more significant evening temperature drops.

What to do

Kayaking on Pine Lake: The waterfront sites at Pine Lake Campground and RV Park provide direct water access for paddling. "This campground has a variety of offering including tent sites and RV, great swimming locations at many of the sites and there is a public beach with life-guards on duty a stones throw away!" notes reviewer Kimberly R.

Fishing in stocked ponds: Ledgeview Village RV Park offers fishing opportunities just 30 minutes from Gloversville. "Big sites, grounds were very clean, level sites, quiet, staff was very pleasant," mentions Eric C., highlighting the peaceful environment for anglers.

River tubing adventures: The Schroon River provides popular floating opportunities. "From tubing down the Schroon River to visiting local eateries in Bolton Landing, there is simply nothing better than a stay here," reports Tom D. about Lake George Schroon Valley Resort.

What campers like

Spacious waterfront sites: Alpine Lake RV Resort in Corinth offers premium waterfront camping. "Waterfront sites worth the dollars! Bring your boats and SUP boards for lots of fun! Staff is friendly and helpful," says reviewer Deb V., highlighting the value despite higher pricing.

Clean facilities: Lake George RV Park maintains exceptionally clean grounds. "The campground is so clean and nice! Perfect for the dogs with best dog park I ever saw. Pools and hot tubs extremely clean and the grounds looked more like a hotel resort than campground," writes Michael C.

Quiet atmosphere: Several Gloversville area RV parks offer peaceful settings despite their popularity. "Super quiet and clean! The place was packed but you wouldn't know it. So peaceful," notes Cecilia K. about Ledgeview Village RV Park.

What you should know

Site leveling challenges: Some waterfront sites require extra preparation. "Our site was back-in and had plenty of space. There's a lot of green space in this campground and it's right on the river," reports Tina about Arrowhead Marina & RV Park in Glenville.

Seasonal operations: Most RV parks near Gloversville operate from May through mid-October. Lake George RV Park runs "May 4 to Columbus Day" while Alpine Lake RV Resort operates "May 6 to October 10," making advance planning essential.

Highway noise: Some campsites experience road noise. "The downside is the noise from the Northway within earshot," mentions Jeffrey B. about Lake George Schroon Valley Resort. Lauren adds about Ledgeview Village: "Only downside was the road noise, our site was adjacent to the road and you could hear the loud noise of the tractor trailers all night."

Tips for camping with families

Pool amenities: Lake George Escape Campground offers swimming options for families. "It's been a few years since we were there last but always enjoyed going here. Facilities were always clean. Campground is pet friendly and have a small dog park. Pool was looking a bit outdated when we were last there but totally functional," notes Jason B.

Kid-friendly activities: Look for campgrounds with structured recreation. "Great park near Lake George. Very spacious with many different activities to do! They have movies, dances and even some kayaking, padding, etc.," says Meag F. about Alpine Lake RV Resort.

Playground access: Multiple RV parks around Gloversville feature playgrounds. "This campground did have a newer playground which my kids loved, as well," reports Kasey M. about Lake George Schroon Valley Resort, while Lauren mentions Ledgeview Village has "a playground and pool. Kids enjoyed the area."

Tips from RVers

Site selection strategy: When booking at larger parks, request detailed site information. "Many of these types of sites are parallel to the water, but the map makes them look like back in sites. If your site neighbors are in their spots already when you arrive it will probably be hard to navigate unless you have a 20' rig," warns April L. about Alpine Lake RV Resort.

Check for big-rig access: Not all Gloversville area RV parks accommodate larger motorhomes. "Our site was fine and large enough to accommodate our RV and tow car but some campsites were pretty small and would not fit large RVs," Nancy W. notes about Lake George Escape Campground.

Campground navigation: RV parks with unique layouts require careful planning. "Roads in the park are confusing because none are parallel or perpendicular so we had to go slow just to make sure we didn't miss a turn in the RV," explains Nancy W. about Lake George Escape Campground, highlighting the importance of asking for directions upon check-in.
