Reservations are strongly recommended, especially during summer months when baseball tournaments bring visitors to nearby Cooperstown.

Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Basic kitchen supplies are typically provided in furnished cabins, though guests should confirm specifics when booking. On-site camp stores at locations like Cooperstown Beaver Valley Campground stock essential items and firewood. Cabins with full kitchens allow for meal preparation, while those with more rustic setups may require alternative cooking plans.

RangerStopped here on my way from Maine to Ohio. I booked via Harvest Hosts and chose to boondock since they had a market (pay for food instead of a booking fee) and I was pleasantly surprised with the overall location. The entire farm is in great condition, the roads are marked well, there are several trails, plenty of wildlife, and just a generally pleasant experience. Loaded up on some goods at the market.
ScoutSpaces were easy in/out. Mature trees between sites. Pool, office, pickleball, k9kamp, bathrooms were all nice.
ScoutAlways have a good time, staff is always friendly. Ive been coming here since i was a kid my grandparents always had a seasonal here.
GuideReally liked it. Love the layout, with camp sites having mowed paths to the restrooms and showers in the middle of each loop. Nicest showers and rest rooms we have seen so far. Each site has brush between them so you can not see your neighbors. Pretty, quiet, relaxing. The groomed hiking trails are the best and Arctic Lake is beautiful. Staff were so nice, and loved doing the scavenger hunt!
TravelerThis campground is beautiful. The lake is good sized and clean. The property has beautiful fields and a creek that runs along the back. This is not a party campground and people are not packed in on top of each other. The little store is cute & affordable and the owners are on site 24/7.
ScoutGilbert Lake State Park is located about 11 miles north of Oneonta, New York. I have camped here for a number of summers at their Hilltop Section, never dissapointed. There are a few trails that traverse the park for a few miles that are always green and shady. The lake offers swimming and kayaking. There is a concession stand and even a small museum that chronicles the efforts of the national CCC program under Roosevelt that constructed the park in the 1930's. After a long day of hiking, the campgrounds hot showers offer a great reprieve.
ScoutNow that All Star Baseball purchased this Oneonta campground this year, don't expect to stay here if you are not a baseball family. I went there in person yesterday for two nights at their"primitive" tent sites. After Hanna checked her computer, my dates were all cleared...great, then let me pay the $70... but no... she had to check with management first. I thought that was strange since that never happened to me before when getting any campsites elsewhere. I was told I'd be called later that day but nobody called me. I went back the next day only to be told all sites for the summer were rented out. Clearly that was not true based on her computer check the day before. BOTTOMLINE: if you are not a baseball family spending $1000's here, don't expect to even get the time of day. Therefore, they do not deserve anyone's business.
GuideWe've stayed here half a dozen times, usually for an evening along our camping trips. We did stay an extra day once to do some of the activities available.
It's a bit of a haul to get to the campground and the first time we were sure that we had missed a turn as we left Herkimer and headed up smaller and more winding roads to the campground. The turn off to the campground comes up fast and is quite sharp so be on the lookout for it.
The campground has many sites including back in and pull through. Not the largest of sites, but lots of green space to give the campground a park like feel. Some camp sites are right along the West Canada Creek. You can swim/wade in it, in addition to riding rafts along it.
There is a working "diamond" mine at the campground where you can try your hand at mining, or just buy some of the crystals that someone else did the work to get. There is a nice restaurant open most days (we have always managed to miss the days that it's open) in addition to stands near the mine that sell hot dogs and burgers.
There is a nice, large pool. In the park like area around it they have stands that sell mixed drinks, and others that sell ice cream and other deserts. The camp store is medium-large and has supplies, food, souvenirs (including Herkimer Diamond), etc.
ScoutOwners are amazing, family oriented, campground has tons for kids to do and is close to Roscoe. Our family goes every year

Fishing access: Gilbert Lake State Park stocks its waters with game fish, making it a popular spot for anglers. "We brought our bikes and explored the many hiking and riding trails on the premises. We loved the swimming beach soaking up the sun and cool refreshing water. As fisherman we loved that the rangers told us that the lake was regularly stocked with trout and other game fish," notes a visitor to Bowman Lake State Park.
Baseball tourism: Located 15-20 minutes from Cooperstown, Glimmerglass State Park Campground serves as a convenient base for Baseball Hall of Fame visits. "Great for families, the parking lot is huge, there's easy hiking on the grounds, and it's close to Cooperstown - visit the baseball hall of fame!" reports a camper.
Trail systems: Multiple campgrounds feature hiking loops around their lakes. "We went up for a weekend trip. Tent camping. Site was sufficiently private and tucked away, but water/bathrooms/showers were close enough. Very clean facilities! Really enjoyed the kayaking and beach area," shares a visitor to Bowman Lake State Park.
Beach facilities: Many campers appreciate the swimming areas at nearby campgrounds. "The views at Glimmerglass are wonderful. I have brought my dog swimming and hiking several times. The beach is great and well kept," explains an outdoor enthusiast.
Campsite privacy: Lebanon Reservoir Campground receives praise for its site spacing. "The sites themselves are all in the open, imagine parallel parking your rig off the side of a road, with a nice forest behind you. That's kind of the deal here. But with room to fit another camper or two in between you and the next rig," describes one camper at Lebanon Reservoir Campground.
On-site recreational amenities: Ball fields and play areas make certain campgrounds stand out. "Clean, modern bathrooms. Campsites were raked and ready for us when we arrived. Super friendly staff! Just a well laid out campground that was perfect for us. Peaceful, a mix of wooded sites for RV's and open sites with their cabins. 2 swimming pools, really nice playground for the younger kids, 2 baseball fields," notes a visitor to Cooperstown Beaver Valley Campground.
Seasonal limitations: Some campgrounds restrict water activities during certain periods. "A major problem at this park is the recent development of a toxic algae problem in the lake. Because of algae blooms during warm weather, swimming and fishing in Gilbert Lake are now prohibited," explains a Gilbert Lake visitor.
Varying bathroom quality: Facilities differ widely between campgrounds. "Only one bath house and it's a bit dated. Very pet friendly including a dog play pen. Pool looked nice and was still open in early October," reports a guest at Unadilla KOA.
Road noise: Some campgrounds sit near busy routes. "The sites by the road have noise from the road which is busier than you might think," warns a Lake Chalet Motel and Campground visitor.
Playground amenities: Several campgrounds offer child-friendly recreation areas. "We went up for a weekend trip. Tent camping. Site was sufficiently private and tucked away, but water/bathrooms/showers were close enough. Very clean facilities! Really enjoyed the kayaking and beach area," shares a Bowman Lake visitor.
Team accommodation: Baseball tournament groups can find specialized options. "Cute cabins, lots of great amenities, pools, corn hole, volleyball net, nicely kept baseball fields, store, areas for group picnics. You could have the whole team stay here in the cabins and bring RVs too," explains a visitor to Cooperstown Beaver Valley Campground.
All-weather facilities: Year-round cabin rentals near New Berlin provide shelter during inclement weather. "Spacious cabin was clean and comfortable. Two bedrooms, one with bunk beds and another with a full. There were dressers in each room. Also in the main room with a fireplace, futon, and table with benches. Screened-in porch that had a toilet area," reports a visitor to Gilbert Lake State Park.
Site layouts: RV parking at many campgrounds follows standardized configurations. "I've been camping at Gilbert lake for 35 or so years. It's pretty quiet, the state has made many sites bigger over the last few years and is starting to add electricity to more sites. You can fill your water tank at the dump station as there are no water hookups," advises a Hartwick Highlands Campground visitor.
Cell service: Connectivity varies significantly between campgrounds. "On top of hill right outside of town. Stayed during the week and was able to get a more secluded, wooded site. (Most of them are pretty open) It was quiet at night. You can hear some traffic from down below at busier times," notes a visitor to Deer Haven Campground and Cabins.
Site leveling: Prepare for varying terrain when booking RV sites. "A bit off the beaten path for a KOA, but nearly sold out in early October nonetheless. Sites range from typical large rig to dispersed tents next to a creek. The tent sites with electric like the one we took used 240v 50A plugs, so we had to borrow a converter plug from the office for our 120v equipment," explains a Unadilla KOA guest.
