GuidePros: clean, good location,nice bathrooms,hot showers nice playground.
Cons: this cabin was on main thoroughfare,so people and traffic, stiff mattresses, very large religious group singing and playing loud music.
ScoutGreat location, quiet, not busy, very relaxing.
TravelerThis site was awesome. Still semi private and there were bathrooms which weren’t bad at all! Only draw back is you’re kind of close to other campers meaning you can hear them too. If you’re in for a more social dispersed experience this is it! I just prefer to have no one around for miles!
TravelerLarge water front. Modern restrooms. Very spacious grounds. Assume tent sites and comfortable RV sites. Very nice people.
ScoutVery clean place.
ScoutKudos to Blue/High Tax States. For $27 a night, wonderful, huge campsites, clean individual toilet/showers, clean gorgeous Great Lake beaches, even organized kid activities on weekends. The staff is constantly around taking care of things. Of course there are dog owners not picking up after their animals but we can't blame the park for perks.
TravelerIf you like nature well this is the place for you.
GuideStayed here in our Class B. Had a nice site in loop 4. Only complaint really is other guests cranking some kind of contemporary R&B with very loud bass, like we should all like their music. 4 sites away, it was pretty loud. The hiking, the falls were great. Tons to do, spectacular views. The park is 17 miles long folks. Camping is north, the falls are south. You can hike all the way down. Its perhaps one of the most impressive displays of CCC work i have seen. Stone tables, picnic pavilions, walls, steps, just amazing work and maintained nicely. Check is easy, plenty of places for trash, fresh water. Showers were not bad, two per building per gender. Of course i picked one that backed up so i was in standing water. I reported it and 24 hours later it was the same. Oh well it was hot and felt great and i didn’t get hoof and mouth disease or anything. One thing - MAJOR league poison ivy , everywhere, surrounding every campsite. Beware.
ScoutBeautiful spot with facilities and fire pits. Peaceful and quiet.

Hiking through gorges: At Letchworth State Park Campground, trails connect directly from campsites to the spectacular gorge system. "The campgrounds are in two main areas of the park and further broken down into many different loops. The loops near the Lower Falls are our favorites, but any choice is a good one. All are close to the gorge/river and wooded, and connect to trails directly from your campsite," shares Harry H.

The campground features "spacious, private campsites, well maintained," according to Lynda M.
Quality of facilities: Bathroom cleanliness varies significantly between day-use and campground areas. "As is frequently true at state parks, the day use restrooms can get a little messy so don't be put off--the campground ones are always very clean," notes Dan N. about Stony Brook State Park.
Historical features: Some camping areas contain unexpected historical elements. At Keuka Lake State Park, "Along one trail you will find the Beddoe-Rose family cemetery containing the graves of fourteen members of two of the area's earliest setters and best known families.

Playground options: Many campgrounds offer play structures for children, but their quality varies considerably. At Ontario County Park at Gannett Hill, "Numerous pavilions that are wonderful for parties or weddings. Stunning overlook that is breathtaking (also great for weddings).
