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.

Tent camping here felt like we were camping in a neighborhood backyard. We could hear so many different families talking and really doing everything you do while camping but the area felt so open and unobstructed voices carried and in the evening when everyone was building campfires the smoke could be overwhelming at times.
Guide
5/5 Stars!
I recently stayed at Sned Acres Campground, and it was an incredible experience! The campground is beautifully maintained with stunning views of Cayuga Lake. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The facilities were spotless, and the campsites were spacious and well-kept. Whether you’re RVing or tent camping, there’s plenty of space and privacy.
The location is perfect for exploring the Finger Lakes region, with wineries, hiking, and local attractions just a short drive away. The peaceful atmosphere and serene surroundings made for a relaxing getaway. I can’t recommend Sned Acres enough – we’ll definitely be back!

GuideWe stayed here for Memorial Day Weekend and really enjoyed Sned Acres. The Grounds are well taken care of (although some areas around the playgrounds and pool could have been weed whacked better) there is a lot of grass and wide open areas for playing games, walking your dogs and you can let your dogs drag their leashes so they have free roam and feel like they are running free. The large pond is nice, there were a lot of campers fishing. The general store is well stocked and the family running the campground and store are very friendly. There is a nice pool for the kids. The only thing that would make Sned better is a little more spacing between the sites, they are close (we were in F130) to where if you open your window shades in your camper your neighbors are 5-10 feet away from you. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

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.

RangerCayuga Lake State Park has a massive campground but most of the sites don't have water or electricity and are squeezed together in tiny loops. If you stay, I'd recommend the 800 or 1000 loops--the sites were much bigger in those areas. But we stayed in the 100 loop (appropriately named "Minnow) and ended up leaving early because our neighbors were just too close for comfort.
The lakefront area of the park was very nice and we enjoyed walking on the drive down in front of the lake. Plus, Seneca Falls is an adorable town and it was great to visit the Women's Rights National Historic Park and the homes of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Harriett Tubman, while we were in the area!
To be fair to this park, we came directly from Watkins Glen State Park (which we loved) and our neighbors were rambunctious. We may have had a better opinion, had the circumstances been different. And in any event, we did really enjoy the area but decided to leave after 2 nights (rather than the 5 we had booked).
Oh and if you have a boat--the dock area of the park seemed really nice. We'd have loved to get out on the lake!
ScoutThe tent sites on the west camp were roomy and reasonably private, but there weren't many water locations and no electric on that side of the park. The facilities were about as nice as you can expect at a state run campground. We're already planning to go back next year for more nights.

Well taken care of place. Friendly staff. Plenty of space between sites. Nice pool and games to play.
TravelerI made a reservation for 7 nights for cabin #8. Plans changed and we arrived two days into our reservation intending to stay for 5 nights. We did not realized until the first morning that the pile of black stuff on the patio was bat dung. That morning we witnessed dozens of bats returning home for the night to the building we were staying in. On the third afternoon we saw a bat hanging from the outside of a screen door. My husband and I inspected the grounds for the bat but it had gone(or so we thought). He and I remained outside at the picnic table and a short time later I realized my arm was bleeding. When I cleaned the wound my husband and I both observed that I had two little distinct puncture wounds. I was at the emergency room until about 9PM and was told that I had to go home to New Hampshire to be treated with a series of shots that I will endure over the next couple of weeks. I camp often. This is my first time camping in NY. I believe it will be the last time. I knew that there was no bathroom in the cabin. I knew that there was no hot water. I knew that I had to bring a lot of stuff with us like bedding and cookware, But I did not think that I would be living in a bat house, full of flies.. I did not know that we would find rodent dung behind the microwave on the counter where I would be preparing food. I did not think there would be carpenter ants crawling all over that same counter. If I had known all that, I never would have rented the Hell hole. I get to visit with my daughter just once per year and that cabin completely ruined that visit. That building is unsuitable for people and pets. In addition, There is a highway that runs through it. The other guest were very quiet, but the traffic noise did not really add to the ambiance. The lake is across the street and the swimming area is small and too shallow for an adult to swim in. And the RVs are packed pretty tight. I would not recommend this place to anyone. I cannot think of one good thing to say about it. I am including pics that my daughter took hastally as we fled. But since it was dark you cannot really see the mouse turds on the kitchen counter. And the roof leaks. I keep forgetting that because it just seemed like something I should have expected. Most of what I have written I have already sent to the park and I think everyone should take a look at the response I got to my request, no my demand, for my money back(at least) and compensation for the hotel we had to stay in and my medical bills. I think if you are thinking about staying there you should read their response because I think it will help you decide if this place is really for you."Hello, We are very sorry that your experience at Cayuga Lake State Park was not a pleasurable visit. There is a very high population of wildlife in the area. Animals such as bats, mice, chipmunks, ants, flies, bees, birds, skunks, racoons, fox, coyote, etc are a normal occurrence when camping in a nature setting. We take precautions and continue to make improvements to try and minimize wildlife interactions. This area also has a very high bat population. It is not uncommon at all for the bats to roost on the outside of the buildings and under porch eves on the buildings in the park. Unfortunately there are times when wildlife such as mice, chipmunks, flies or bees find entry, occupy the space and may leave droppings or get into a food source. This may be very unappealing, but our cleaners do very well to ensure the dwelling is clean and ready for use when you arrive. Many times animals gain entry after the patron has arrived. We cannot issue a refund for your camping stay. You will not be reimbursed your hotel costs or your medical costs, as there was no negligence on the part of the park that caused what occurred."
ScoutWe stayed at Cherry Grove in May ‘23 with a Fifth wheel camper. The park is very well maintained. Sites are good sized and packed gravel. WiFi is very good, as is cell service from Verizon and T-Mobile. It Most of the campground is seasonal, but all of the campers were friendly.
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.
TravelerThe staff were really accommodating with making a last minute reservation. They even provide homemade breakfast bread—area is beautiful but facilities are old. Bathroom was okay.
LegendLots of permanent campers but nothing bad looking. Nice campground. Lots to do for kids.
TravelerI haven't stayed in a KOA before because they have so many amenities I don't use. I'm a birder and my tent site here is next to a little grove of trees where I counted 12 species of birds this morning. The bathrooms are very clean and the women working the desk could not have been more helpful.
Traveler
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.
Guide
Well maintained campground on an old Naval Training Center. Lots of mature trees shade most of the sites. Sites are all gravel and backin’s- no pull throughs. Sites are generous in size but the power poles are between sites and are often more than 20 ‘ away, however the camp store will rent you 30a extensions. Place is great for kids. Lots to do with a couple of playgrounds, guarded swimming area, kayak rentals, movie nights and a concession stand to get pizza and snacks! Seems to always have a breeze off the lake on loop 5. Sites 222,224,226,228,230 and 232 are all on the water. Book quickly because they fill up fast and then you’re waiting for cancellations.
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.
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!!!
TravelerWe’ve grown to depend on KOAs on our cross country road trips and have stayed at many. This is the nicest one we’ve stayed at. Pool was great. Bathrooms were very clean and well maintained. Our gravel site had a nice shady tree and well maintained grass and fire pit. Cleanliness is my top priority and this place gets an A+.
RangerHIGHLIGHTS :
Most sites are pretty spacious
Pets allowed in some loops
Marina convenience store with pontoon boat rentals
Fishing
Swimming
Ice cream and concessions stand
Arcade room
Outdoor movie screen
Nice playgrounds
Military museum
Paved loops - good for bikes and scooters
NEAR BY ATTRACTIONS: Wineries
CONS:
Electric service boxes are shared in-between sites. This could pose an issue if your power cord is not long enough.
There is only source for water fill up. This could end up being a very very long wait if you arrive at the same time as other campers.
Only 2 dump stations
They don’t allow pull-in camping. Campers MUST be backed in
RangerOur first KOA stop, so can't compare to other KOAs, but this place has a good number of family activities and events. Our 3 and 5 year olds really enjoyed the jump pad and woods obstacles. We lucked out with a nice private site in the back. The sites here for the most part are lacking in privacy. Canandaigua is a really cool little town too and has a beautiful lakefront park with beach and playground, only ten minutes from this campground. The water in Lake Canandaigua was very clear! A pleasant place to spend the night.

Individuals working at the front desk were helpful and nice. The campground was nice. More of an open campground vs. secluded. I didn't use their bathrooms or showers. Many seasonal campers. Live music and friendly neighbors. It was a nice stop as I headed up. I would stay here again if I need an overnight place to stop.
I gave it 4 stars since I didn't stay there for more than one night and didn't experience the campground fully. People were fishing in the river, and kids had places to play. Lots of open places for activities. I'm more interested in the boondocking style of camping.
GuideThis was one of our favorite campgrounds of our cross country journey so far. We were in a long pull through near the front of the campground and it had a large grassy section to the side. There were a lot of seasonal campers here and they were all friendly. There was a little road noise cause it's not far from the highway, but it didn't bother us.
