    Kirkville, New York

    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.

    **Closed for renovations**

    This is a future project that is NOT currently open to the public!

    Pending Post:

    Little Creek Camp is a unique place to relax, reconnect, or rejoice 'round the campfire. Little Creek Camp is a year-round ideal tenting spot for travelers, families and nature enthusiasts.

    FREE Firewood. Bring your axe! We have provided fire-rings for you to use at your chosen tent site.

    TENTS PREFERED

    Tent sites: Park in the driveway and walk your gear to any spot you find comfortable. Your campsite depends on you.

    Pull-behinds: ok to park where you see fit. Depending on recent weather, the ground may be too soft for RVs/Campers to turn around.

    BYOBF 'Bring Your Own BIRD FEEDER'

    The property is loaded with hummingbirds, songbirds, woodpeckers, even an owl on occasion… July through August is a very active time for these little guys, as they chipper and play near the Rhododendron bushes or the fruit trees in the hammock-hangout. Bring and hang a full hummingbird feeder, or any bird feeder, near your campsite for a closer look at our little friends.

    Foraging on site: Wild Blackberry, Raspberry, Blueberry, mushroom, nuts… bring your NYS foraging guide! Come for the birds, the berries, or the foliage, please leave nothing but footprints.

    THIS IS NOT A CAMPGROUND

    This is a judgement free, welcoming space that should be respected.

    There is no public restroom, a shovel can be provided

    There is no electricity on site.

    No running water other than the stream. It seems clear, but it is not safe to drink.

    For shower: there is a public shower at the Beach House at Fair Haven State Park.

    NO Hunting on site.

    Please engage in 'active raccoon control' meaning, lock any food in the car before bed or when not in use. Raccoons are naturally shy animals that prefer to retreat when they sense humans nearby. Removing access to food sources is the most effective raccoon control.

    Adventuring? Nearby attractions are a NYS specialty. This is a great location for anyone visiting Fair Haven Beach, Sterling Nature Center or nearby Chimney Bluffs. The NYS Renaissance Festival is only a few minutes’ drive.
