"Restaurant and bar right next to the pool. Decent size spots."

"The only campground in all of New York that acquires to house back riders. There are campsites that also come with stalls for your horse!"
"We get our site close to the lake so we can walk down and swim and my husband fishes. The showers are so nice and private and clean. Love that we can rent boats too."
"**Lake George RV Park may be the greatest campground we’ve stayed at yet!"
"We rented a golf cart from an outside course which was SUPER expensive, so it would be nice if the campground offered their own rentals, but if that's our only complaint, we're happy campers."
$22 / night
"I am so thankful that l live close to the Adirondack park- where there are so many places to camp within this huge park."
"Close to Lake George. Went on the trolley to the village. New adventure."

"This campground sits on the Schroon River just a few miles north of downtown Lake George and is very easy to access from I-87."
"You're 4 miles away from Lake George's downtown which is a great area. Plenty of nearby hikes. Each campsite had a BBQ-like fire pit. Campground has a very nice basketball court, pool and playground."
"Golf cart rentals (4 and 6 person) were expensive so we just walked the park multiple days. Each site is gigantic and well thought out and can easily say there is not a bad site in the place."
"The park is very large so if you want to be near the pool/entertainment area or nearby bathrooms, pick your site accordingly."
"Very easy to find very easy to maneuver around into the campsites. Nice large campsites clean bathrooms. Very easy access to the village at Lake George and a great bike path."
"I’m rating this campground as a 5/5 because of the location. We road the bike path each day to and from Lake George."
"This campground is close to the highway between Albany and the Adirondacks. There’s a nice big lake and the Hudson RIver. Many campsites are near the lake."
"Moreau Lake has (in my opinion) superb facilities as far as state run campsites go."
$50 - $60 / night
"Great campground if you want to shop at the outlets to the south or hang out in the village of Lake George to the north. There is a huge bike path that leads to the village and the outlets. "
"The private access to the bike path in the back is a nice addition. Overall, a great stay and couldn't have asked for more. We'll be back."
"Only downside was the road noise, our site was adjacent to the road and you could hear the loud noise of the tractor trailers all night."
"The pool was very cold but spotless, which was surprising since there’s pine trees all around. We would definitely go back."
ScoutNot good for larger rigs, largest site was too short for mine. Pot holes in the campground road are so bad that it caused damage to my trailer. Bathroom is a mess. He brought us to the site which was nice but while I was hooking up power he said my surge supressor would cause problems, and my water pressure gauge would prevent us from getting any water. All the reviews said the guy was friendly and he was to my wife, but wouldn't say 2 words to me even with a probing question.
GuideWell, I’m back, it’s June, and there are 3 other groups here. 1 boat, and 2 tent camping. The parking lot is still empty. The water was significantly lower last time I was here. They have dropped the gates, and the lock is in operation. The resident peacock has been keeping me company. Tried fishing, without any luck, it had been raining a lot lately, so maybe that was the reason. It still has the highway noise and of course the train noise going by, but I love that. I anticipate another lovely sleep. It’s quite breezy, so the windows will be open. I’m in my happy place!!!
TravelerIt’s in a great location. Clean, quiet, and well taken care of. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. No full hookups. Poor cell reception
GuideOwner is very knowledgeable and helpful. Very friendly too! Took us to the site, helped back us in and helped us hook everything up! Would stay here again! The land is next to a river. They keep it mowed and it went on for a while. The dogs enjoyed the walk!
GuideThe Canal Corporation provides designated spots for tent and van camping along the canal. Stays are limited to a maximum of 48 hours. Upon arrival, campers must scan the QR code at the entrance and complete a brief survey. RVs and travel trailers are not permitted. The Verizon signal is good in the area.
GuideContinue driving past the original coordinates until you reach the dirt parking lot on the right. You’ll see signs that say “No Vehicles Past This Point” — those apply only to the grassy picnic area. The parking lot is large, rocky, and uneven, situated right on the Mohawk River. It's a great spot for wildlife viewing and fishing (with a valid license). Verizon cell service is good here. At the lock parking area, you'll find pit toilets, a dumpster, and potable water available on the side of the building as you enter.
ScoutPlease note Crane Pond Road from the lower parking lot to the pond itself is NOT maintained and often gets very muddy. 4WD is required, if you go back there without it your day is gonna suck. From experience - if your vehicle isn't lifted you may come out with a ding or two from rocks and other things jutting out of the ground. Not fit for an RV in any capacity. The parking lot at the end of Crane Pond Road is relatively small but can fit at least 6 vehicles. There is an outhouse near that lot and a foot bridge off to the right, leading to Pharaoh Mtn Trail.
If you're staying to camp there are (9) sites only accessible by boat (I haven't found a map that numbers/letters them), except the one right by the parking lot. There is a trail leading to that one. My family and I have never used the other sites so I can only attest to the one which is freaking GREAT. There is a stone cliff near it that goes down about 12(?) feet and is great for fishing or jumping off of. There is also a stone area right by the water if you want to fish or just sunbathe. Stone fireplace on site. The view right there is beautiful and at night you can hear the loons (visible during the day as well).
GuideI love the spacious campsites. It’s very woodsy between sites, so it seems very private. Bathrooms and Showers are clean. Over 20 miles in hiking trails, this is one of the nicest parks, I’ve visited.
ScoutThis is a state campground with some remote sites. However it is a gateway to Pharaoh Lake Wilderness. Lots of hiking trails to many ponds and one lake most of which have lean tos and other sites which are free. People are pretty quiet and respectful as opposed to Rogers Rock which was getting completely out of hand. Generators and loud music at all hours. Only takes a few bozos to ruin the camping experience for those around them. Then there are the many jet skiers who disregard not only the wake laws but have no consideration for those trying to load and unload boats at the launch as they speed by. Anyway, I love Putnam Pond! Also very nice paddling pond and decent swimming!
