Best Cabin Camping near Hammondsport, NY

Cabins near Hammondsport provide varying levels of comfort and amenities across multiple state parks and private campgrounds. Watkins Glen State Park Campground offers cabin accommodations with electricity and basic furnishings, while Letchworth State Park features cabins equipped with bunk beds, stoves, refrigerators, and fireplaces. "Cabin campers here at Letchworth for the past two years. We stumbled on cabin camping at letchworth due to weekends being booked for almost the entire summer for tent spots. The cabins are spacious, with bunk beds, a stove, fridge, and a fire place," noted one visitor. Creekside Cabin provides a more intimate setting with electric hookups, fire pits, and picnic tables, while Camp Bell Campground and Babcock Hollow Campground both offer cabin options with nearby shower facilities.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Watkins Glen/Corning KOA provides cabin rentals with amenities like television and small refrigerators. "Our cabin was barebones but it was clean, had a TV, small refrigerator, a bunk bed and full. Plenty of room for two people!" reported one camper. Most cabins in the region require advance reservations, particularly during peak summer months from May through October. Pet policies vary significantly between properties—Hickory Hill Camping Resort and several others welcome pets in their cabins, while some state park facilities maintain pet-free cabin areas. Seasonal availability is important to note, as most campgrounds operate only from spring through fall, typically closing by late October.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Kitchen facilities vary widely, from fully equipped kitchens with refrigerators and stoves at Letchworth State Park to more basic setups with only outdoor fire rings and picnic tables. Cooking supplies are usually limited, so guests should plan accordingly. Many campgrounds feature on-site stores selling firewood, ice, and basic provisions. Creekside Cabin provides firewood for purchase, though it's not included with the rental. Watkins Glen State Park and several other locations offer fire rings at each cabin site, allowing guests to prepare meals outdoors when indoor cooking facilities are limited.

    Letchworth State Park Campground

    A little gem with a lot to do

    Cabin campers here at letchworth for the past two years. We stumbled on cabin camping at letchworth due to weekends being booked for almost the entire summer for tent spots. the cabins are spacious, with bunk beds, a stove, fridge, and a fire place. i thought they might be close together, yet they were all pretty private, with a fire ring and picnic table. There was a beautiful updated playground, and clean bathrooms. Last summer they had just opened the new nature center with guided hikes, and activities all summer long.

    Great for the falls, swimming, hiking, white water rafting, kayaking and so much more!

    Watkins Glen State Park Campground

    Watkins Glen State Park, New York

    Campers arriving at Watkins Glen State Park are immediately captivated by its dramatic gorge scenery, where 19 waterfalls cascade through narrow stone walls. Their campsites are nestled among hardwood forests, offering a perfect balance of sunlit clearings and shady retreats. Each site comes equipped with a picnic table and fire ring, making it easy to prepare meals after a day spent exploring the park’s famous Gorge Trail. The park’s facilities blend rustic charm with modern comforts: clean flush toilets, hot-water showers, and convenient potable water stations. Hiking enthusiasts appreciate the interconnected trail system, which includes the popular Rim Trail for elevated views of the gorge, as well as more secluded footpaths through hemlock groves. Families particularly enjoy the nearby swimming pool and easy-access picnic areas overlooking Seneca Lake. To simplify travel logistics for out-of-state visitors, many campers opt to pre-book an airport transfer so they can arrive at Ithaca or Elmira–Corning Regional Airport and head straight to the park without the hassle of car rentals. Those planning to explore multiple stops along the Finger Lakes often choose the provider’s reliable city-to-city rides for comfortable, door-to-door transportation between destinations. All in all, Watkins Glen State Park delivers an unforgettable combination of awe-inspiring gorge hikes, well-appointed campsites, and family-friendly amenities. Campers seeking both adventure and relaxation will find this New York treasure hard to surpass.

    Sampson State Park Campground

    Back for a 2nd time

    HIGHLIGHTS : 

    Most sites are pretty spacious 

    Pets allowed in some loops 

    Marina convenience store with pontoon boat rentals

    Fishing 

    Swimming 

    Ice cream and concessions stand 

    Arcade room 

    Outdoor movie screen 

    Nice playgrounds 

    Military museum 

    Paved loops - good for bikes and scooters

    NEAR BY ATTRACTIONS: Wineries

    CONS: 

    Electric service boxes are shared in-between sites. This could pose an issue if your power cord is not long enough.

    There is only source for water fill up. This could end up being a very very long wait if you arrive at the same time as other campers.

    Only 2 dump stations

    They don’t allow pull-in camping. Campers MUST be backed in

    Hills Creek State Park Campground

    Well established and popular- perfect for groups

    This is one of the main attractions for the area. Locals come here when the weather is nice.

    We stayed in yurts, which are round tents ($38 per night). We had a cozy wooden deck and slept four people in two bunk beds. We also had a cooking stove, refrigerator, heat and electricity.

    There is plenty of fishing and hiking to go around.

    Really recommend this campsite if you have a little extra money to spend and are looking for a light getaway with friends.

    If you're looking for a secluded place for yourself or with a loved one, I would look around the area for a less-popular campsite.

    Flint Creek Campgrounds

    Great activities, friendly hosts, full hook ups!

    Close to wine country you will find this gem of a family campground. Dog and kid friendly with activities such as wagon rides, arts and crafts, movie night and various themed weekend events. The hosts were super friendly and welcoming during our entire stay. An easy back in site with full hookups (B10) backed against a row of trees and a field that provided much entertainment of squirrels and birds. There is a camp store with very reasonable prices and accepts credit cards. Wood ($4) and ice ($2) are also for sale. There are two small cabins to rent along with a couple of family tent sites. The bathrooms/showers were clean near the camp store. Amenities include a pool, mini golf ($1/person), two playgrounds, horseshoes, a recreation center with games and movies, basketball and shuffle board. There are many seasonal campers at this campground, but all seemed friendly and welcoming as well. It truly seemed like one big happy family there.

    Letchworth State Park Campground

    Beautiful place

    Letchworth is absolutely stunning. The views are beautiful, however the scenic areas are at least a 10 minute drive from the campground. The park is massive.

    There is a huge variation in site sizes. We lucked out and got a large site with privacy and an area for the kids to run around, however the site directly across from us was little more than the gravel pad and fire pit. Some of the sites are right on top of each other. Great for group camping, not so much if you want any privacy.

    Only two out of the 8 loops (200 and 700 loops) have updated bathrooms (single toilet with handheld showers in half of the bathrooms). The others loops have older facilities with three traditional toilet stalls and two showers.

    We loved our site but would’ve preferred to stay in a loop with the updated bath houses as we have younger children and a tent trailer.

    All sites have electricity. Some loops are pet friendly, some are pet free. The camp store has a good selection of necessities, albeit expensive for discount brands. The pool is 4-5 miles down the road from the camping area.

    Would absolutely camp here again.
