Campground access throughout the region typically runs from late April through mid-October, with most facilities closing after Columbus Day weekend. Moreau Lake State Park and Lake Lauderdale Campground maintain modern shower facilities and clean restrooms, though several reviewers note these can become crowded during peak summer weekends. Reservations are strongly recommended for weekend camping, especially for campgrounds near Saratoga Springs and Lake George. Many campgrounds provide electric hookups, water access, and sanitary dump stations for RVs. Weather conditions can change rapidly, particularly in spring and fall. A visitor to Moreau Lake State Park mentioned, "The park draws large crowds of downstate tourists during the summer season, so don't expect to have the park to yourself."

Lake Lauderdale Campground receives consistent praise for its mountain vistas and proximity to Vermont, which is just 20 minutes away.

    Gus's Gardens Camping

    It was quite and peaceful

    We enjoyed our stay with Gus very much. With the email to confirm our stay, there were excellent directions to get there. It is behind his home by a lake with creek nearby. There is also a hiking trail. We had no problems. If we are in the area again, we would camp here again.  Thanks

    Jamaica State Park Campground

    Great Camping Experience at Jamaica State Park

    This was our second stay at this Vermont State Park. It was a great three days. The park rangers were tremendous in ensuring we had a great visit. They worked with us to get the right site. The bathroom facilities, while rustic, were clean. There is a plethora of things to do in the park itself and in the local community. Nonetheless, it starts and ends with the management of the campground. Lauren, the campground manager, and her team of professionals, do a great job. We will definitely return.

    Branch Pond on National Forest Hwy

    Amazing camping spots with fire pits!

    Tons of different styles of camping spots (if you get there while its still sunlight you can pick a spot by a flowing stream/river). No public bathrooms, no hookups, I personally didn’t have service.

    Statton Pond Camp on Forest Road 71

    Amazing Numerous Free Dispersed Camping!

    Easy to get to, had service the whole time, fire pits for every spot. I did see a huge blackbear. I didn’t see any bathrooms.

    Gus's Gardens Camping

    Nice weekend getaway

    This place was really nice. Easy to pull our 20ft camper in. Two minutes drive to the very cute town of Wilmington. Good places to eat there. The campsite was really private. Had a picnic table and fire pit. The pond was sweet and the Deerfield Valley Trail is right off the campsite. We would definitely like to stay there again.

    Bear Slide in Lake George Wild Forest

    Night alone in my jeep

    It was rocky getting there but super super remote - zero service. Great space for my jeep and honestly you could fit a LARGE RV. There is a bathroom at the entrance. No fires because it’s super remote. Peaceful and almost untouched.

    Grout Pond Campground — Green Mountain & Finger Lakes National Forests

    Grout Pond Loop

    Camping Grout Pond Loop is truly nice after Labor Day (Sept 5-7). Campsites 15 & 16 offer pull-out space to turn around truck campers --we lucked out w/ 4 wheel camper pop-up). Over hanging trees would make it difficult for larger equipment, plus saw posting that excludes trailers from certain roads. We reserved well in advance; however many fellow campers were trying to find first come sites and ended up hiking in to camp around pond sites. Sites are in eye-site of each other but you don't feel crowded. Temps during day around 65-70 F. Nights dipped to 45-55F.
    We saw deer & turkeys driving the surrounding woods after short hikes.
    We love chatting w locals and learned of a special shrine that was faithfully built from stone to resemble original in modern day Turkey. What a special & serene place.


Guide to Greenwich

Camping near Greenwich, New York offers access to both the Adirondack Mountains and southern Vermont, with most campgrounds situated between 1,000-1,500 feet elevation. The region experiences typical northeastern seasonal changes with summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F during peak camping months. Many campgrounds remain closed from mid-October through late April due to harsh winter conditions and seasonal road closures.

What to do

Fishing and water recreation: Camping On The Battenkill in Arlington, Vermont provides access to world-class trout fishing. The campground sits directly on the river, offering convenient water access. "The river is beautiful and the site was huge. We did some fishing and swimming," reports Michele S. Many sites are positioned right along the water for easy access.

Hiking nearby trails: Just 15 minutes north of Moose Hillock Camping Resorts, the Inman Pond Trail offers an easy walk through the woods leading to a fishing pond. "Nearby is good hiking in Adirondack Park where trails range from easy to difficult and have some great views of the lake and surrounding area," notes Nancy W. Hikers can access both the Appalachian Trail and Long Trail from many nearby campgrounds.

Swimming and beach access: The swimming areas at most campgrounds range from natural river beaches to developed lake facilities. At Woodford State Park Campground, "There's a small reservoir with a little beach that you can swim or kayak/canoe in. There's a bunch of fish and other little creatures so it's fun to explore," says Jenny A.

What campers like

Privacy between sites: Many campers appreciate the spacious, well-separated sites at Moreau Lake State Park Campground. "I love the spacious campsites. It's very woodsy between sites, so it seems very private," explains Michi P. The natural vegetation creates separation without sacrificing accessibility.

Clean facilities: Multiple campgrounds maintain high standards for bathrooms and common areas. "The bathrooms were the cleanest campground bathrooms I've ever seen!" reports a visitor to Woodford State Park. Similarly, at Lake George RV Park, campers note the exceptional maintenance: "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."

Seasonal activities: The region offers distinct experiences depending on when you visit. "We used to go here when my brother was living in Albany. Stop by Saratoga Springs on your way north! It's a small park but there is a lot to enjoy on site and even more nearby. Very wooded. Hiking trails become nice XC skiing trails," notes Amber A. about Moreau Lake State Park.

What you should know

Site selection matters: At Lake Lauderdale Campground, mountain views vary significantly by site location. "We visited last year and were blown away by the beauty. So many things near by to explore.
