    Four Mile Creek State Park Campground

    Family Camping at its Best!

    Our family of four plus one dog enjoyed three nights tent camping in the grassy area overlooking the gigantic playground. Our school age children spent 4-6 hours each day running around with different configurations of kids. It was convenient to be able to keep an eye on the kiddos while doing meal prep or just relaxing. The lake shore made for a great natural playground with logs, small boulders, and skipping stones. Lake sunsets don't want to be missed. Bathrooms were clean, showers warm, and the shared wash area made doing laundry and dishes easy. Sites vary from open and grassy, to waterfront or tree lined. Our family camps often and was very impressed by all this campground had to offer. A great place to stay if camping near Niagara Falls!

    Niagaras Lazy Lakes Camping Resort

    Clean & Friendly

    We have camped here several times. Bathrooms are very clean along with the showers. They are cleaned on a daily basis. Store on site has just the bare amenities. Big clubhouse, 2 heated pools and a pond to fish (catch & release). Sites are big. Pet friendly. Staff are very friendly. 10-15 minutes from Niagara Falls and close to stores. It does have 2 on site laundry facilities but the dryers take a while. Enjoy going there.

    Four Mile Creek State Park Campground

    Friendly staff & good view

    About 30 minutes from Niagara Falls. Staff inside office were very friendly-gave many trail suggestions and good tips for navigating the city. Comes with state park parking pass to park free and access to town shuttle. Electrical hook up, worked great for our RV. Water and dump site available on grounds. Small beach on Lake Ontario. Dog friendly but bring proof of rabies vac.

    Niagara Falls North / Lewiston KOA

    Nice but full of mosquitoes..

    This is a good campground that's not too far away from Niagara Falls. The restrooms were very nice, the store was small but ok, the staff were helpful, the pool looked decent although we didn't use it.

    The only issues we had were the absurd amount of mosquitoes literally all day long. They were relentless! Also there was alot of mud in our campsite and others.

    They also allow dogs! This is always a plus.

    HTR Niagara Campground

    Near Niagara Falls

    This is a very nice campground on Grand Island, only a few miles from Niagara Falls on the American side. Our site was a back-in site bit was easy to get my rig in.

    The staff was very pleasant and knowledgeable, the price was high but not unexpected considering the location. Our site was pleasantly shaded with rubbish bins a short walk away across the road.

    Colden Lakes Resort

    Beautiful Campground

    This a beautiful campground with very friendly staff. Our site was a level gravel back in site. The back in sites are very wide and roomy, the pull through sites are a little closer together. There are 4 small pristine lakes. It’s about an hour from Niagara Falls and out in the Country, very quiet and peaceful. Would definitely come back

    Four Mile Creek State Park Campground

    On the lake

    This is the quietest state campground I’ve had in the NY State Park System. Just a hop away from Niagara Falls, you can also use your camp pass to park there for free.

    I spent July 4th here and it was nice and calm. I had an electric spot just across a small field from the lake.

    This only skirts a 5 star because they ask for folks to mask up in the restroom. I don’t have any issue with masking policies but I was the only one following the rules.

    They have laundry too.
