Best Campgrounds near Poughkeepsie, NY

This is a very nice wooded campground. We LOVED our site (site 9). It was absolutely massive! The photo doesn't do it justice. It was set back very far from the main road and was an extremely large site! Though it was totally private on one side, we could see our neighbors in site 10 on the other (but they weren't very close to us). Also, the back of the site overlooks the main road, but it is far away and didn't bother us at all. It still felt like a very private site. It is also right across the road from a water pump and from the path to the bathrooms so it is a prime location.

The bathrooms were fine. They were clean but sometimes ran out of toilet paper.

There was no cell service in the campground.

The campground does not sell wood, but rangers will direct you to a gas station close by where you can buy some.

Something we did not appreciate/thought was odd about the campground was that the showers were not by the bathrooms and there was only one shower house very far from the campsites. The dishwashing station was also not near the campsites but not as far as the showers.

The fireplaces at each site are cleaned out in between visitors so that was nice.

This campground is about 45 minutes from Minnewaska State Park which is beautiful and has good hiking.

Overall, we really enjoyed our stay!

If you like dispersed camping, like me- this place is good. There are absolutely no amenities whatsoever & barely even a signal here, but it’s quiet & off the beaten path. The parking lot only holds about 4-5 cars, 6 if you park real tight. There’s no spectacular mountain views from above, but rather a quiet peaceful wooded area & although I only seen/stayed at one camping spot which is literally at about the required 150ft from the road, you can set up your own camp anywhere. I was the only one here & it was a very peaceful & relaxing night

The campground is beautiful and the staff was wonderful! We started our camping season off right with a quick weekend stay at Round Pound. We were very impressed with the playground on site! Unfortunately, due to our early start in the camping season the weather did not allow us to enjoy fishing or the beach or water hook ups, however all areas looked well maintained. We are looking forward to stopping by Round Pond again in the near future.

Just a note to other campers with T-Moblie, we did not have any service on the campsite, however just a hop in the car or a quick walk down the mountain for 5G service near the entrance off the main road. There is also free wifi at the commissary/exchange, which is about 2 miles away.

If you're looking for a relaxing weekend with space to stretch out, Kittatinny Canoes River Beach Campsites may not be the right choice. The campground is very crowded, and there's little space between campsites, which can make it feel cramped. On top of that, you’re charged per person instead of per campsite, which feels unreasonable given the conditions. 

The restrooms are outdated and could use some maintenance. The staff wasn’t helpful and seemed uninformed, which added to the frustration. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this campground if you’re hoping for a peaceful, enjoyable camping experience.
