Tips from RVers
Site selection: The terrain around Grahamsville can create challenges for cabin and RV sites. "While looking for a campsite that would play host to our daughter's first camping trip, we stumbled upon this place. The ground is worn over and very rocky. If you visit, bring incredibly thick sleeping pads or air mattresses if you want to sleep semi-comfortably," cautions a visitor at Roscoe Campsites.
Utility connections: Some cabins in the area have limitations with hookups. "The sewer connection in 372 ran uphill for me, but my pipe sits very low," notes a Thousand Trails Rondout Valley guest, highlighting infrastructure considerations even at established sites.
