Green Lakes State Park's outstanding features are its two glacial lakes surrounded by upland forest. Both Round and Green Lakes are meromictic lakes, which means that there is no fall and spring mixing of surface and bottom waters. Such lakes have a high potential for evidence of ancient plant and animal life. Another special feature of the park is an 18-hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones, where visitors can snowshoe in winter, and there are 10 miles of trails that cross-country skiers can use. Geography: Green Lakes State Park is located just east of the city of Syracuse, in upstate New York. Recreation: Considered a flagship facility, visitors can enjoy biking, boating, fishing, golf, hiking, picnicking, camping, and wintertime cross-country skiing. Facilities: The park's facilities include a beach, rowboat rentals, cabins and campsites, food concessions, a golf course, trails, picnic tables and pavilions, a playground, showers, and dumping stations.

We needed a campground not too far off our route from Niagara Falls to NH and this was great. Very windy when we arrived. Our campsite 8 did not have a fire ring but others did. Right on water…can’t drive on path in front of the water sites so you are essentially on the water. Nice clean facilities.

Pros: New owners have made improvements to be up to code and qualifications for KOA standards.
Cons: Still has environment of nosy, trashy seasonal campers who are always being rude or commenting on your gear/unit.
If you are looking for a quick flip bit same ole suspects, this is the place for you.
Guide
Tiny quiet campground right on duck lake. Water front sites available. Very friendly owner!
Ranger
Yes, it’s true! You’ve hit the campground bathroom lottery here!
Let’s start off with the pros: bathrooms are great! Super modern and clean and hot, free showers! Very handicap accessible as well.
The whole campground is very well kept. Completely litter free and all the buildings and signs are modern and cool looking. Five stars all the way for the people running this place. They are doing an awesome job keeping it very fresh.
Maintenance/facilities: 5 stars
Camping sites:
I’ll start with the positive. It was a simple and easy, level site. And we had electric. So it was good.
The cons: There is zero privacy here. Virtually no trees or shrubs between sites and sites are close to each other. In the rolling meadow sites opt for the electric as the tent only sites are basically a sardine can of campers. I mean in one spot the tents were so close to each other I thought it was a group campsite but it was not. Like a group hostel room but with tents instead of bunks.
We were only here for 1 night passing through and it was great for that but I would not feel comfortable hanging outside at my site in quarters so close. Maybe I’m just weird because many people did. I can’t imagine spending any longer than 1-2 nights here. I would stay again but would check out other camp spots first. In our area 118 and 120 seemed to the best that backed up onto trees as opposed to just other sites.
Camping sites: 2 stars
Amenities: there’s a lot to do here. However I feel I must say you cannot reach the lakes from the rolling meadow campground without a car, bike or very long walk. You can see a bit of round lake through the trees but it really isn’t accessible. Expectations are the doom of any trip so just keep that in mind. You’re not going to bed with any sort of lake views or sounds near you. Also you can only swim at the beach which is pretty small and guarded by some pretty enthusiastic lifeguards taking the job pretty seriously. I guess you will appreciate it if you have little kids to me it was a turn off as I don’t prefer to feel like a fish in a bowl when I swim. But again this is just personal preference! Also there were a lot of rules at this tiny beach - more than I have seen at pretty much any other beach anywhere in the world. Mostly I assume the rules are there to protect the water which I can appreciate but don’t expect a relaxing lake vibe here. Lots of picnic tables and a perfect place to have a picnic and chill for a bit. Very clean beach bath area and I really appreciated the charging station with 4 covered outlets available and a charging counter. I didn’t use it but was impressed someone thought to add that in to the building plans.
With all the rules in place there is just one missing: No political propaganda of any type should be allowed at the campsites. We were almost blinded by idiocy each time we walked to the bathroom as we had to go past a full size Trump flag someone was flying in front of their site. Can’t even imagine the rage I would’ve felt if I had to camp next to that. Fortunately I found a cut through in the woods which I used to get around it on the way to the bathroom. Camping is where you go to get away from all of it! This is state owned land and they should not be allowing that sort of inflammatory full sized political flag in any area as it only raises the blood pressure instead of dropping it. You can’t bring your own SUP or kayak, face mask or list of any other things to the lake (rules) but you can have your heart attack inducing propaganda all over your site and in everyone else’s face - makes no sense.
Would I stay here again: Yes. But only for 1 night passing through. I felt too crowded to be there for any length of time. It was hard for me to relax outside.
Value was a 5 star because I had full electric for $30/night and there was plenty to do. I should note for kids this place is a goldmine! Great playgrounds everywhere and you can rent kayaks. And it’s great for bikes. And it was all very handicap accessible which I thought was very impressive. You can tell a lot of thought went into the facility side of park. If they cut out 1/4 of the camp sites it would be spacious and amazing. And the trumpeter is just a case of bad timing for me, not a permanent thing (although I do think they should ban that decoration of insanity at state run parks).

Thanks for this wonderful article. It was very enlightening and useful. Solar

Unfortunately when we arrived at southwick the rangers & staff had all gone home so we were unable to get a map or check in. We went to our camp site & there were people playing very loud music until about 12am, no rangers around the say anything about quiet hours so I had to. Sites are on top of eachother & there’s no boarders inbetween, fine for some people but not for me. After it rained one night our site & others around us were completely flooded. The beach area & bathhouses we’re nice though so that helped the stay not be a complete wash
Scout@penalty shooters 2 said loved where we were this time. page 121. On these hot days, with a slope and a nice breeze.
Legend
This campground is 4 different loops- A loop is like the loop for people here for fishing, B loop is the mellower crowd, and C and D were our nightmares: mass chaos, children running amok, loud groups, no thanks. Apparently C and D are always booked and full, because people like that it’s closest to the beach trail, the playground, and the camp store. We chose a site in loop B and were happy with our choice. None of the sites at the campground have any privacy from your neighbor, you’re all sort of camped in a big circle. Sites 66 and 67 are the exception that we saw, they’re off together to the side and would be a good choice for two groups camping together.
There are dumpsters here, and there’s recycling for redeemable bottles and cans only, with proceeds going to the campground’s rec center. That was the most recycling I’ve seen offered at a NY state park campground yet, at least it’s something.
All sites are electric, some are 30 and some are 50amp. There’s a nice new dump station with several dumps and potable water. Good cell reception for both Verizon and ATT. NY State campgrounds require proof of rabies vaccinations for your dogs.

Seasonal camper since 2011. On July 1st my wife and I along with a few others were struck by lightning. Owner made no effort to reach out to anyone and see how they were. I made our disappointment known and for that we were thrown out. Used the worst language you could imagine in front of our kids. Called us all miserable fucks and told us we could get the fuck out now. I don’t need your bullshit. Family oriented campground? It’s to bad you have to give any stars.
ScoutWe have been camping here Seasonal for 12 years. On July 1,2023 myself and husband we struck by lightning. My kids seeing this happening. 911 was called we were transported to the hospital. We thank all EMTS and Staff for everything they did for us! Both EMT from 2 different agencies stated they would like maps of the park as they never know where to go once in there. The Owner of this campground went onto another media platform bragging about how great everything was handled which it was. My husband and myself both commented our thanks and appreciation. Not once did the owner reach out via text, phone call, email and driving by our site looking the other way did he check on us! My husband and myself commented on this platform stating this! We were truly disappointed with the owner. The owner commented back to us that he was on our deck speaking with myself! He was not speaking with me as I was in the camper getting medical attention. He has no clue who his Seasonal campers are! Fast forward to getting our contract renewal we did not receive one after 12 years. We went to try to speak with the owner as we approached he started screaming get off my property or I’m calling the cops. Now my kids were with us watching this happen he went on to call us miserable fucks amongst many other nasty names! Then proceeded to text me harassing messages. Needless to say my kids could have lost both of their parents and they watched us get struck by lightning then watched him call us nasty names!! The owner is very unstable. Just one of the harassing messages I received from him! I was literally on your front porch checking on you BEFORE the paramedics even arrived. As you clearly stated, there were several people in and out of your camper checking on you, leaving no room for me to even enter. So, I stayed out of the way while making sure paramedics could get to you and the others. The paramedics official report shows that both of you went to the hospital ONLY as a precaution. So, Stop evolving your story to justify your undertones of bitterness. So, STOP playing the victim that I was rude and angry when you were on my front porch after you were so utterly disrespectful to me, my staff, and other seasonals. STOP complaining that I never got to know you and your children. Spin that one around. Why didn’t you come to any of the events we put together and be friendly and chatty with me? Tons of other seasonals do. Furthermore, try complaining to the CEO of Walmart that he doesn’t know who you are or what you look like. I have absolutely no need to approach any guest as long as they are happy and they aren’t bothering anyone.“The Owner” and“This Place”.“Take a minute out of his day”. I refuse to allow anyone in my park that has such underlying hate. Please have your seasonal friends throw their temper tantrums at me as well so I can kick them out as well if they’re going to behave like you.

We recently booked a weekend stay at Oneida Shores campground. This wasn't our first stay here but will most likely be our last. Upon arrival, we pulled in front of the office and decided to turn around knowing we would be going in the other direction towards the lake. As we were turning around, another car was pulling in but stopped to let us turn around. We were immediately met by the irate campground owner screaming at us telling us it was a one way and we couldn't go that way. So we tried to back up and he screamed at us to stay off the grass. My husband asked where do you want me to go and the owner just threw his hands in the air and went to the other car. I got out of the car to get our reservation as my husband was too upset. Side note, there are no signs marking the road as a one way. I told the owner my son would be camping with us and would be arriving later. He said he would have to park in the parking lot which is quite a walk from our site. The campsite allows two tents per site but apparently only one car although there was plenty of room for him to park there. My son arrived late as he had been attending the NYS Fair that night. He went to the parking lot as instructed and was met with a flashlight in his face and was questioned by police. He then had to carry all of his camping gear from the parking lot to the campsite. My sister and brother in law also had a run in with the police patrolling the campground. While we were camping in tents on the lakefront, they brought their camper and were in the RV side of the campground. They drove down to our site for dinner and a campfire. They left to return to their camper around 10pm. They were met at their site with flashlights in the face. Two cops questioned them separately asking if they were lost and said that they were observed driving in circles. My sister and brother in law explained that they were yelled at earlier by the owner for driving the wrong way so they were just making their way back. The police response was that they don't like strangers here. We have had a couple issues with the owners of this campground in previous years. One year they yelled at us for putting a tent on the border between two sites even though we purchased both sites. Another year they sold us green wood that would not burn and last year, our site was infested with bees. We keep returning because we love attending the NYS Fair and staying at the lakeside campground is a beautiful and inexpensive way to make a weekend out of it but between the irate owners and the police harassment, it no longer seems worth it.
GuideWe did a over night camp as a send off for one of my buddies. The campground was beautiful right on Oneida lake. Good luck at underwater welding school Cannon!!!!

This is a fantastic place for kids and adults. There are rent, RV sites and cabins. The RV sites are spacious enough that you don’t feel like you are too close. A beautiful private lake for fishing, swimming and other water sports. Beautiful woodsy location. Special events that the family will enjoy. The people that run the campground and the seasonal folks are the BEST! We love it there!
TravelerThe sites are small, but there are mature trees between them & woodsy areas around the campsites. The campground is clean and well kept. The laundry room and bathrooms were clean. I didn’t have a chance to use the deck or the indoor pool.
The owners made me feel welcome from the minute I arrived. They went above & beyond for me.
The facilities are not wheelchair accessible. The owners said that they are working on that.
ScoutFamily like experience. The owner and his wife are fully involved. They take you in with a golf cart ride so that you know which way to go. They check on with you thru out your stay. Simple and nice place. We will visit every year.
ScoutWe rented a deluxe cabin which was in pretty poor condition. The cabins are very tiny and have little room to move around. They also do not have full size refrigerator as advertised and the mattresses on the beds were disgusting and could use to be changed. On the bright side, we visited with friends and had a wonderful time. I would go again, but bring my own camper next time.
GuideSuch a large park with lots of space. Sites with various hookups. The water is breathtaking!! And the beach and property is clean and wonderfully maintained!
GuideGreen Lakes has camping about 25 sites have full hook up and can handle big rigs, golf, swimming, hiking, biking,sall camp store at Pine Woods, consession stand at the beach, restaurant at the club house. Across the road is the NYS Canal Trail which goes from Buffal to Albany biking, fishing, hike, and more.
ScoutLovely location directly on Lake Ontario. Nice little 9 hole golf course 5 minutes away. State park the same. We had large shaded FHU pull thru site with 50 amps, excellent water pressure

Awesome resort. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Very peaceful and quiet. I have grown kids but for what I could see, the kids there stayed busy with tons of activities.
ScoutWe've been going to this campground for 3 years. It has been bought out by some new company. The previous owners were great. New ownership though is a whole different story. The staff is so unfriendly. All 3 of them. Campground is severely understaffed. The woman in the store is so indifferent and cold. We tried to talk with her, as we were excited to start our vacation, and she made us feel as if we were bothering her. The groundskeeper was patrolling the pool and quick to yell at any kid who jumped in. I understand that it is against the rules but maybe he should learn how to communicate that instead of yelling. His wife also is quick to jump in and yell at people. Even though their children are jumping into the pool. Meanwhile they reside in a camper by the jump pad and let there children use it until 10 o'clock at night. When it's supposed to be closed at 8. It's a shame because the seasonal campers there are so courteous and friendly. New ownership is very unorganized also. If you don't plan on interacting with the staff then I would suggest camping here. Other than that don't bother. There are way better places to spend your money.
GuideExtremely clean, well run and has the most options for all kinds of camping. The grounds are spotless, as are the bathrooms and showers. There are several hosts, so help is always available. The campground is conveniently located near many of the attractions.
ScoutBooked a full hookup site a few months ago, but due to a software change I ended up double booked. Initially I was told I was going to be canceled, after I explained I was not local and their free weekend a different time would not work they found a water and electric site. They were very friendly and extremely understanding. My issue came upon arrival. The site I am in is 5” off over 8’ side to side. To find a spot I could level I had to park center of site, leaving a 8’ space wide open on hookup side. We are now on top of our neighbors. The sites are spacious. The staff is amazing. The amenities need updating. But, for the cost, a little work could be put into providing a closer to level site. I don’t need level but the “bubble” was not even close!!!
GuideNice small state park, our site had a water spigot right behind our site hook up hose and filled camper. Lake is dirty but the had a nice splash pad for the kids. Nice consession stand reasonably priced for a State campground. Our site was the furthest away from everything. Lots going on in the area.
TravelerWe always camp in the plateau across the road from the main park area-sites are huge, clean bathrooms and a nice park right in the circle. The beach is nice but can get crowded. This is our kids favorite campground
ScoutWe arrived on July 5th for 5 nights. Our original site was listed at 55’, but there was no way our 43’ camper would fit, nor make the tight turn into it. The owner quickly moved us to another site and we’re happy with the result. I only gave a 3/5 since I reserve 4’s and 5’s for parts with more amenities and larger sites.
