    Four Mile Creek State Park Campground

    A pleasure

    08 2024  We had our first experience here July of this year.  We loved it so much, we came back in August.  We had several sites, couldn't get one for the entire time each time, and we loved them all.  Sites are fairly open and you see all your neighbors, but they are roomy, you certainly aren't on top of one another.  Sites are sunny, works well for solar, some are partial shade.  The bathrooms and showers were always clean.  The camp store is cute and has essentials.  The staff are pleasant, as are the campers.  There is a shuttle to Niagara Falls, during the summer, it is free, and drops you at several locations.  There is even a pool drop off that is free for campers, very nice for the kids.  There are playgrounds and the kids seem to have fun.  Quiet time is that, quiet.  Some sites overlook the lake, but I'm sure those are gone early in the year.  I recommend this place for all people, young, old, tents, rigs.

    Chautauqua Lake KOA

    One Nighter

       Although this is a KOA Holiday, we used it as a KOA Journey on our way to the Catskills. Not too far from the Interstate & there was no highway noise at the campground. 

      We arrived right at 5pm, which is when they close up, but Victoria went above & beyond & took us right to our site. Good thing, since we were at the back of a confusing layout.

     There are sites in this section that have a partial view of the lake, but they looked like seasonal sites. All the sites looked well cared for. We had a pull through on Chestnut Drive.  Y1

    If you have kids, most of the activities they would be interested in are at the front entrance. If you don't have a golf cart, you may have to drive to the front for the pool, mini golf, basketball court & jumping pillow. 

    It doesn't look like they have many cabins. 

     There's another playground in the back that was getting used. There was supposed to be a splash pad, but I didn't see an evidence of that. 

    The bathroom/shower house are duel toilet/showers. Not my favorite, but we didn't have any trouble getting in. 

    We used the back exit on our way out, which was convenient. At least we didn't have to go back to the front entrance!

     BTW, Victoria is a treasure! She's friendly & goes above& beyond for customer service. We really appreciated the time she took with us.

    Four Mile Creek State Park Campground

    Good location

    Sites are were nice and big but not private at all. I was in site 300, it was like a large lawn with a tree, which was great for shade. Each site has a fire pit and picnic table. Not a lot of privacy. Really nice bathrooms nice showers. Amazing being so close to Lake Ontario.

    Darien Lakes State Park Campground

    Great experience.

    Check-in was quick and easy. Our site was spacious, clean, and pretty darn level. Bathrooms were dated, but pretty clean for the amount of traffic. Water was hot and had great pressure. We were there for @KingdomBound2024. The campground was 6 minutes from Darien lake Amusement Park. We will definitely be back next year.

    Psychotic Management

    If you have any concerns about their park or services they will immediately avoid you like the black plague!!! It's almost like they have things to hide, or don't want to justly return not even $1 that they are not entitled to. Running away from customers says a lot about their lack of professionalism, level of maturity, lack of integrity after they get paid, and the possible false statements they are making in their advertisements. To make a long story short, I did not receive all the services that they were supposed to deliver after paying them. The petting zoo is also questionable and one that should be looked at by PETA. Never going here again.

    Beautiful well maintained.

    We have stayed at both a full hook up and a no hook up site, and both were roomy and clean. The park is awesome. I absolutely love the memorial park .

    East Otto State Forest

    Great spot!

    We went for a quick weekend trip with 3 people and 4 dogs. What a great spot! We were nice and secluded, which was great for the dogs to run around, be safe, and not bother other campers. It was relatively easy to find and the campsite is pretty close to Zoar Valley for a nice day trip! We will definitely be back :)

    Niagara Woodland Campground

    Best

    Describing this as a family campground is an exaggeration. The majority of structures in this area are semi-permanent, consisting of campers with non-mobile buildings attached. These constructions are in a state of severe degradation. Several of the residential areas require cleaning.

    Warner Road Dispersed Camping in North Harmony State Forest

    fine site, messy

    The site was fine, fire pit, primitive spot so no services. We arrived late at night so couldn’t see so well but stopped in a clearing on the road toward the coordinates.

    Kind of a gross site, the previous people who stayed at our site were messy and left litter, but it served its purpose as a free place to sleep along a longer trip.

    Niagara Woodland Campground

    good

    The Niagara Woodland Campground presents itself as a family-friendly destination, but falls short in delivering a welcoming environment for families. During my visit, I noticed a predominance of semi-permanent structures, many of which were retro bowl attached to campers in a state of extreme disrepair. This detracted from the campground's appeal, as it gave off an unkempt and neglected atmosphere rather than a pristine outdoor retreat.

    Need to learn to clean bathrooms

    Love the campgrounds and beach. However, this year the restrooms were disgusting!!!. We were here for 3 nights and the same washcloths were on the floor all weekend. Sinks and counter never cleaned, mouse feces were everywhere. Even after going in right after the 2 young girls were done "cleaning", it looked like it was never touched except toilet seats were up and trash empty. Was really disappointed. We were in the last loop.

    Amazing campground

    This place is amazing. The sites are very nicely spaced and level. Bathhouses are some of the nicest I’ve seen. So much to do that’s included in the price of the stay, which I thought was very reasonable. I wish we could have stayed longer. Definitely will try and return here.

    Super friendly and communal campground

    It was fairly full when I went, the staff was very friendly and helpful. There was a band playing in the middle of the campground at dusk which made for a great experience. Great campground overall!

    Very cute campground right on Lake Ontario

    I stayed here one night in a tent just passing through, it was a week night and there were lots of people camping but still lots of open sites. they had a good mixture of more open or more secluded spots. The beach is beautiful! The bathrooms were clean! It’s a quick easy drive to Niagara Falls. It was the perfect place to stop going after going through Canada from Michigan!

    Beautiful park

    I loved everything. The sites are neat. We tent camped with no electric. $23 per night. Fishing allowed in the pond. Bathrooms with showers were spotless. Grass maintained. One small complaint is checkin and out times not enforced. Checkin states 3 pm but we saw many checking in as early as 8 or 9 AM. We could have gained a whole day!  Next time! 

    Lots of very wet, muddy sites where even mulch would have been helpful.

    Mostly Seasonal Sites

    Park is mostly for seasonal camping with family oriented activities. Pads are gravel and grass. Campground needs general upkeep. Bathhouse needs repair or replacement. Staff is friendly and accommodating.

    Evangola State Park Campground

    Great campground

     We stayed here three nights to ride out a heat wave and really liked it. Sites are electric only, with a dump station available at the entrance and one in the campground loop. There are potable water spigots throughout the campground, where you awkwardly pull over to the side of the road and fill your tank. 

    Sites are pretty much wide open, with zero separation between you and your neighbor. Most are out in direct sun but the ones along the edge have some tree cover and shade. 

    There are yurts here as well, and a playground, and a huge disc golf course. You can walk to the beach from the campground (dogs aren’t allowed on the beach). The nature center is right in the campground, by the basketball and tennis courts. Showers were dirty and buggy, but they’re free and you can actually choose your own water temperature. 

    NY State campgrounds require proof of rabies vaccinations for your dogs. Good cell reception for Verizon, ATT wasn’t great but the cell booster helped. Trash bins, but no recycling. Beautiful sunset on the lake.
