    Tightly squeezed sites.

    Although sites are squeezed in, it is a nice family campground. However the site I had was steep grade from steps to picnic table. Flat ground area for camper was very narrow.Tricky footing for older folks like my wife and I. Particularly since my wife uses a cane.

    Event Campground

    Despite only having 3 stars on dyrt, lees park is pretty cool to come to. Close to SPAC, lots of area to set up tents, dog friendly, campfire friendly, and there’s a lake minutes away. Some of the crowd seemed a little rowdy but overall nothing that was obnoxious. DONT GO IN THE WOODLINE you’ll get mobbed by mosquitoes.

    WHAT!?

    First off no same day reservations or walk ups allowed, second it yells you that the fee is $17.50 per site, I expected a little added extra fee for booking etc.... check out was $58.50 per night. I would have if they weren't so manipulative about it.

    Perfect for a chill weekend with friends

    I can here to spend time with friends and i feel like we got lucky with our site. It had a nice wooded area behind us and felt more private than some of the other site.

    The swimming there felt really clean and I loved the dock. Close to great hiking.

    Great weekend site

    We rented a rustic campsite for a long weekend and it was way better than expected. The staff was helpful, the site was pretty and there are so many places to hike and the best of the Berkshires so close by. There are only two showers in each gendered bathroom, but there are so many RVs here it never was an issue. The pool is being renovated so it is currently closed.

    Peppermint Park Camping Resort

    Relaxing & family friendly

    We had a nice weekend at Peppermint Park. This was our 2nd visit with a camper (2022 & 2024) and stayed about 20 years ago in tents.

    It's family and dog friendly, has a pool, hot tub, newer playground with a sandbox, camp store with large lodge attached, horseshoe, volleyball and other outdoor game areas.  There were several activities planned for father's day weekend including a BBQ food truck, BINGO, corn hole, horseshoes, and kids crafts. There is also wifi, but the signal is not great. It did save me on data usage though so I appreciated it.

    There is a large number of seasonal's and everyone we interacted with was very friendly. My 11 year old granddaughter quickly made friends with some of the seasonal children. We attended BINGO, which was packed, and it was clear they are a friendly group. The grounds, pool, buildings and bathroom are all well maintained.

    Our site, 111, was a nice flat grassy site with water and 20amp electric. We were sunny in the morning and got nice shade starting late in the morning. We had season sites all around us with only a few of them occupied so it was pretty quiet in our section. Sites are a bit closer together than we prefer, but do have trees and brush in between.

    We were in between 2 bathroom buildings. One of them having only 1 shower, 1 toilet and sink in each side and the other had 1 shower, and 2 toilets on each side. I believe there is larger bathrooms with more showers in the lodge but we did not check them out.

    Our only negative is the wood for sale is on the greener side so it takes a bit to get it going. We had the same issue 2 years ago and ended up buying lighter fluid from the store then. We did not have any with us this trip and did not want to pay camp store prices so we used sticks from the area and some match light charcoal to get it going well.

    We did not venture outside of the campground this trip, but do know there are some nice ponds/lakes close by and hiking trails.

    Overall it's a nice friendly campground that we will continue to visit.

    Great experience

    I went last year with my kids they loved the arcade small but it's a camp ground the playground area was nice. We use tents and got a bad storm the owner called and let up bunk in the arcade for the night since she was worried. They have animals the kids can go check out. The pool is nice and they offer fun activists for the kids as well honestly try it out.

    A peaceful place with character.

    My first visit to New York state was amazing, largely in part due to my campsite at the Woodland Hills campground. I had a back in site and was having problems with my camper, and they were able to change to a pull through at time of check in. However, it was in early May and before the summer crowds. The pond has a fountain which sounds like a small waterfall at night, and wildflowers were in bloom. Very nice bathrooms and showers, and my dog loved the dog park.

    beautiful campground

    This is a very nice campground.

    We stayed in site 64 which is set back more than 2 car lengths from the road and is pretty well surrounded with trees so it feels very private and secluded. Could see one neighboring site slightly through the trees but that neighboring site was lower down so it still felt private. It was a good sized site. Not sure if we could hear any noise from route 9 or not. If we did, it was very faint and did not disturb us.

    Site 64 is across the road from a water spigot and the path to the bathrooms/showers. It was very convenient and we didn't feel like we were right by the bathrooms (no compromise to our site's privacy, no noise, etc). Our site wasn't waterfront but wasn't far from path down to reservoir.

    The bathrooms are BEAUTIFUL! the nicest I've seen yet. Very clean, well stocked with toilet paper and soap- convenient shelf and hooks for toiletries/towels.

    The showers are beautiful as well. There are 3 individual shower rooms that lock. Each one has a bench/chair and hooks to hang towels etc. There is also a small shelf in the actual shower for soap. 

    NEW for 2024: the showers do not accept quarters anymore. You need to buy tokens from the campground. It is 1 token for 5 minutes and it is 50 cents a token. The issue we encountered was that apparently people still try to put in quarters and this jams the machine. Therefore, when we put in our tokens, though we thought everything worked fine, in fact the machine did not register the tokens and we were left taking ice cold showers. When we told the office in the morning, they explained the issue and said that had we called them they could have fixed the shower. They are going to try to put some guard over the slot to prevent quarters from going in. Hopefully, this is implemented soon. They were very apologetic and gave us new tokens to replace the ones we had lost on cold showers.

    The office sells wood for $6 a bundle and you can get free kindling from their leftover cuttings/sweepings. They also sell ice and some "merch"/"swag".

    We really enjoyed our stay here.

    BRING YOUR OWN WATER !!!

    Use to be a real nice family oriented campground. Since the new owners took over, the nicest thing is leaving! Wild, disrespectful adult adolescents get out of control and the park does nothing about it. Speed limits are not enforced! Some fly thru the park making it dangerous for everyone, especially children. Garbage used to be picked up at your site throughout the day and brought up by the entrance, but now there are overflowing dumpsters all over the place which have caused fly and rodent infestations. I had to hang nasty fly strips all around my canopies and caught mice in my camper constantly. THE WATER! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING! I'm guessing the new owners didn't do as much as the previous owners as far as water treatments. It smelled like raw sewage, loaded with sediment and very discolored. Little to no pressure and a couple times no water at all. This was my 5th year camping at Nickerson and these issues were not there in the past. I have been camping for about 50 years and I've stayed in many campgrounds, this water was by far the worst I've ever experienced.

    Parking lot

    This place isn’t a camp ground it’s a parking lot for RVs. I’ve seen more separation between campers on RV dealer lots. There are so many golf carts racing around kids can’t even ride bikes. It’s camping and kids can’t ride bikes safely. The pool for a campground this size is VASTLY undersized. They made the roads so narrow to squeeze in so many sites, it’s almost impossible to navigate an rv through, even for experienced rvers. The sheer armada of golf carts constantly going up and down the road make you feel like you’re camping on a highway instead of in nature. The constant sound reminds me of being near the antique car ride all day long at a theme park. My kids were almost hit on their bikes twice by golf carts and the actual cars FLY on the roads. This was definitely a one and done trip for us.

    Pretty!

    Really nice campsite. Some are “on the hill” so you get a little more privacy. They sell firewood and there’s a really cute general store across the street from the campground. They are strict (or seem to be I went during the week so it was quiet anyway) about noise and such and give you a paper when you enter about it. Overall really nice and organized 😁

    Foolhardy Hill

    Spotless, Well equiped, Friendly, Quiet

    Foolhardy Hill is the nicest facility that I have ever "Camped". I used quotes, because this is NOT a "roughing it" Campground. Katie and Biddy, the host/owners, are the nicest and most accommodating. This "off the grid" place is convenient, comfortable, spotless clean and I would HIGHLY recommend a stay. I would also recommend renting the entire facility for a family reunion, off site business meeting, fishing club meeting, or just a place to meet up with a bunch of old friends... The bathrooms are clean and the showers are HOT. The pavilion provides a meeting place for groups to maybe discuss the day's catch, the one that got away, or just to meet new friends. The pavilion also has everything you will need for grilling, flat top cooking and 2+ gas burners. 

    I was here for fishing. Foolhardy is located centrally for the best the Deerfield River has to offer. 

    Pets welcome, but leave the little ones at home (unless renting the entire facility). 

    If I have to leave just ONE negative comment; after the shower, the mirror above the sink was VERY fogged! (Did i mention, the showers are HOT!) :-D

    Private Early Season Camping

    We stayed for two nights mid-week in June and had the entire loop to ourselves. That made the experience a 5/5, but after seeing the site layout, it seems like accessibility could be an issue with high occupancy. Check-in went very smoothly and we were greeted by the new owner of only 45 days. She was extremely pleasant. Most of the campground is filled with seasonal RVs which makes for a different experience. Our site was on top of the creek, close to the path down to the water and close to a hiking trail. During our visit we drove around the nearby towns and didn't find much to see or do with our time. I don't know if I would stay here again just for the visit to the campground given the higher cost, but we enjoyed the one time experience. Verizon cell service was decent, and enough to work remotely.

    Horrible Mananagement

     I stayed at Nickerson Park Campground in August 2022 and unfortunately, my experience was far from positive. The campground's management and staff exhibited behaviors that were completely unacceptable and made for a very unpleasant stay. One of the main issues I encountered was the frequent drug use by the manager's husband, Geno. This created an unsafe and uncomfortable environment for guests, and it was clear that he was under the influence of drugs during my stay. Additionally, his attitude towards guests was extremely poor, which only made matters worse. It's concerning that the management and staff at Nickerson Park Campground allowed this behavior to continue unchecked. It's their responsibility to ensure that guests feel safe and comfortable during their stay, and they failed to do so in this case. The fact that they allowed a staff member's drug use to go unchecked is completely unacceptable. Overall, I would not recommend staying at Nickerson Park Campground due to the behavior of its management and staff. Their lack of accountability and failure to address these serious issues make for a completely unacceptable guest experience

    Close quarter sites in scenic campground

    There are a mix of platform and regular tent sites as well as some camper sites. We stayed on a platform site, which I questioned the structural integrity of after looking underneath lol… it held up though and there were also some new platforms which looked nice. Sites are a little close together for my liking. Luckily we checked out early before the weekend started so it was peaceful for us. The bathhouse was awesome! New building and it wasn’t a communal shower area with all the stalls in one room, there were all separate rooms each with their own bathroom and shower stall. Overall I would recommend if you’re not looking for too much peace and quiet.
