Lake George's glamping sites provide easy access to the region's abundant natural attractions while offering unique on-site experiences. Spacious Skies Adirondack Peaks sits minutes from hiking trails and historical sites like Fort Ticonderoga, making it an ideal base for exploring both the Adirondacks and nearby Vermont. Most glamping properties feature private fire pits, barbecue facilities, and communal gathering spaces for evening relaxation. Several campgrounds maintain waterfront locations with direct lake access, kayak rentals, and private swimming areas. During summer months, guided nature walks, stargazing events, and outdoor yoga sessions enhance the glamping experience at select locations. A recent visitor noted, "The views are just amazing—waking up to Lake George's pristine waters while enjoying modern comforts creates the perfect balance of luxury and nature."
"The campground is located on the shores of Northern Lake George (Huage NY). It's worth noting that the campground is located about 30 miles North of the village of Lake George."
"The bathrooms and shower houses are maintained and cleaned daily, which is good because some campers are just inconsiderate and disgusting."

"Everyone seems to adhere to quiet hours so it was easy to get a good night's sleep."
"Oddly, our fire pit faced the neighboring site rather than the pond. There are some hiking trails right from the campground and we saw lots of efts!"
"Odd $10 CASH deposit for gate key that no one asked for. No ATM on site to get cash… The sites are spacious enough, but are very close to each other."
"The Campground has a nice staff, a very well appointed general store, laundry, arcade, marina with boat rentals, mini theater, and indoor mini put. Most of the sites are wooded and nice."
"There is an outhouse nearby, several campsites, fire pits, and we went for a swim in the pond. Overall great experience!"
"There is an outhouse near that lot and a foot bridge off to the right, leading to Pharaoh Mtn Trail. "
"The owner is very nice and accommodating and the staff, in particular Michael is always doing something to make the campground look better(cleaning, mowing and weed whacking) just to name a few."
"right on the paradox river; they rent tubes ; they have a heated pool, a couple different playgrounds and an arcade for those rainy days."
"We parked in a lot and walked about 5 minutes to the campgrounds on the lake. They were beautiful and well kept, even had a small pile of fire wood for us."
"There is a beach, fishing dock, pavilion and plenty to do in the area. This is dispersed camping but every site has water nearby. The water is difficult to get as you can’t connect a regular hose."

"Linens, blankets and pillows were provided. There was a fire pit, BBQ, picnic table with umbrella, covered platform, and a partition between campsites."

"There is a pool for swimming, paved roads are good for bikes & scooters, pavilion for activities, lake for swimming & fishing and hiking trails."

GuideCar camped on Sunday of Columbus Day weekend in October. This was their closing weekend and lots of spaces were available. Stayed in tent circle loop and it was almost empty. Great access to lake shore and bike path. Walked back toward marina and town in the evening and ran in the morning the other direction going out to Rock Point. Didn’t use the shower facilities. The bathroom near our loop only had sinks and toilets and was fine.
GuideNice campground near Killington, VT. Water and dump station. Not for big rigs we have a 21 ft TT. Things were tight but doable. One of the few Vermont state campgrounds that is still open. Most close from second Monday in October until Memorial Day.
GuideStayed here to be able to do the bike trail. Was warned to keep the bikes locked up. The sites are very close together. The picnic tables and fire pits(tire rims) are moveable. Our picnic table was in rough shape and broken.
The bathrooms have keypads on them but on our last morning there was a guy in the bathroom with his pants on the floor sitting in a shower chair for a couple of hours. The bathrooms also have spiders all throughout them. The water pressure was high and the showers were hot.
LegendWe spent a long weekend at Moose Hillock in Fort Ann, New York, to visit Lake George. This is a difficult place for me to review. But I’ll do my best to share my experience.
The pool is the main attraction here and probably the largest and most ridiculous I’ve ever seen at a campground. Great for young kids.
THINGS I LIKED:
— The sites are enormous and private, probably the biggest sites we’ve ever seen at any campground we’ve stayed at.
— The mature trees are everywhere, great for privacy.
— It’s located about 25-minutes to the heart of Lake George. Easy drive away but not in the loud and busy area.
— The camp store is pretty good and sells snacks, drinks, basic supplies, and souvenirs.
THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH:
— Our site(# 709) was sloped, so much that even with leveling boards under the rear wheels, rear jacks fully extended and front jacks fully retracted, we couldn’t level. That’s annoying and so easily fixed by a campground this size with this array of equipment and resources.
— Except for the entry roads, the rest of the park is gravel and dirt, which was extremely dusty. Our vehicles and our stuff were instantly covered by this dusty dirt which was a never-ending battle to keep outside.
— I’m ok paying premium money for a great site, but this site wasn’t matched to the price. I paid$647.38 for 3-nights. That’s$215.79 per night.
WOULD WE COME BACK?
Probably not. For me, having a level site that’s not covered in dirt and dust is important— especially when it costs$215 per night. There’s a much nicer park about 10-minutes away(closer to Lake George) where we’ve stayed in the past. The sites are smaller, but they’re level.
ScoutPeaceful, quiet, relaxing space. Super friendly staff.
ScoutThis was our first trip away from home. The campgrounds are clean with beautiful views.
GuideOriginally we reserved mountain view. It waa getting ready to rain...alot for 1 - 1/2 days. The mountain views didn't have gravel, but hard dirt. However beautiful shady areas (we drove thru the another day to check it out) looked nice, but it's hard to imagine on the side of hills to level 🤷🏼♀️
We really like the riverside view..it's across the street & about 300' down the street.
But is a great location for places to go & things to see. A few Miles from Whiteface mtn & about 15 min to downtown Lake Placid.
TravelerJust stayed at Drapers Acres for the Iron Man in Lake Placid. We stayed in a cabin and daughter and her husband stayed in their rig in an RV site. They clearly state that they are not a camping resort, but a base camp for the area adventures. Rest rooms were clean and had plenty of hot water. Staff was friendly and welcoming! Great playground for the kids to play on and plenty of privacy. Cabin was basic - had fan, heat, mini-fridge and microwave. If visiting the area again, I would not hesitate to stay there again! The RV site was large with plenty of space for their 40 foot rig and jeep. Use AT&T towers and had the ability to use phone as a hotspot.
ScoutWe have stayed here a few times. It’s always clean and quiet. Pool is nice but very family (kid) oriented. Love the trails to the water from both camp loops. Great place to stay with a kayak or paddle board!
Rogers Rock Campground lies along Lake George's northern shoreline, approximately 7 miles south of Ticonderoga. The campground sits at around 400 feet elevation with access to both deep water for boating and shallow areas for swimming. Campsites range from waterfront locations to more secluded wooded spots, with both tent camping and modern yurt accommodations available throughout the region.
Kayaking and canoeing: Rent equipment directly at many local campgrounds or bring your own. At Lake George Escape Campground, "kayaks and canoes are available to rent for about $10-$15 per day" according to John W. The calm waters of Lake George's northern end provide excellent paddling conditions.
Fishing from shore: Fish directly from camp at several waterfront sites. Christopher P. found Rogers Rock Campground offers "crystal clear water" with good fishing spots directly accessible from the campsites. Morning and evening hours typically yield better catches.
Historical site visits: Fort Ticonderoga sits just minutes from most campgrounds. Jean C. notes that "Ticonderoga offers some history and is worth a half-day visit. Lake Champlain isn't far away, either." Many sites offer educational programs during summer months.
Waterfront sites: Direct lake access for swimming and boating. At Rogers Rock Campground, Lauren S. was "lucky to book a site (#68) on the water. Beautiful views and morning sun. There is a nice trail to walk that follows along the shoreline. Each site has a fireplace and table."
Hiking trails: Multiple trail options exist within campgrounds and nearby. Meike W. shares that Rogers Rock "is a great campground with many things to do like hiking, kayaking, swimming, biking and playing on a playground."
Yurt camping: Spacious Skies Adirondack Peaks offers modern yurt accommodations near Ticonderoga. Krys M. reports, "Husband and I took a trip with all 3 pups and I couldn't even tell you who had more fun!! The doggos and husband absolutely loved being able to walk the beautiful trail in the cooler weather."
Weekday vs. weekend differences: Campgrounds get considerably more crowded on weekends. Carrie J. advises about Rogers Rock: "This place is packed on the weekends. If you want to avoid the rush of campers, definitely try to make the trip on a weekday."
Seasonal considerations: Most campgrounds operate from mid-May to early October. According to the campground information, Rogers Rock operates from "May 19 to October 9" while others like Scaroon Manor Campground runs "May 19 to September 10."
Road conditions: Some dispersed camping areas require appropriate vehicles. Nicole T. warns about Crane Pond Dispersed Site: "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."
Beach areas: Multiple campgrounds offer designated swimming areas with varying amenities. Alice C. mentions Rogers Rock has "a day use area has shady spots and grills, nice for the kids," while others report lifeguards at select locations.
Pool alternatives: For families wanting more controlled swimming conditions, some campgrounds maintain pools. At Half Moon Pond State Park Campground, Susan E. notes, "The beach is small, but it is never busy. No hookups but the bathrooms are clean and the showers ($) are hot."
Kid-specific activities: Look for campgrounds with structured programs. A reviewer of Lake George Escape Campground mentioned it "has different activities, a waterslide, peddle carts, kayaks and boats for rent, dancing, and teen specific activities too!"
Site selection: Choose sites based on vehicle size and hookup needs. Kim T. cautions about Rogers Rock: "Some roads are unpaved, unmarked with directional signs, very narrow, and tough to navigate. The site was much smaller than expected."
Hookup availability: Full hookup sites are limited and book quickly. At Medcalf Acres Riverfront Campground, johanne Y. reports, "We stayed at this campground in a travel trailer for one week... for day camping the sites are really nice would highly recommend."
Dump station access: Not all campgrounds offer full sewer hookups. According to Barbara Y., Button Bay State Park Campground has "No hookups but have a dump station" while other reviews note varying levels of amenities across different campgrounds.
