Webster Park campground offers cabin and glamping options located 6 miles north of Webster in upstate New York. The park's 550-acre woodland borders Lake Ontario, creating a microclimate that extends the fall camping season through October 31. Sites are arranged in a single loop formation with varying levels of privacy and hookups, where larger RV sites line the entrance road while tent and small trailer sites distribute around the interior loop.
What to do
Creek fishing at Lake Bluff RV Park: Located on Lake Ontario, this campground provides direct water access for anglers. "Had a large, private plot in drumlin loop. Close to the beach which was very pretty and clean. Hiking trails, kayaking, and lots of other fun activities," notes one visitor at Lake Bluff RV Park.
Explore historic sites: The region contains numerous military and cultural landmarks within short driving distance. "There is a museum, boat launch, pavilions, and ice cream shop on the camp ground. The bathrooms are great with showers and each camp spot has plenty of distance away from the next one," explains a camper about Sampson State Park Campground.
Winter hiking: Many parks in the Webster area maintain trails year-round. A regular visitor to Webster Park mentions, "We go to webster park family campground several times a year for the past few years. Usually sometime in early May and in late October with an occasional day or two mid summer... We stay on the outer ring on that side of loop as it gives access to the woods and trails behind the sites."
What campers like
Privacy between sites: Campers consistently note site spacing as a key feature. "This was our first trip here. It was nothing short of perfect. Staff was super helpful and friendly. Camp sites are wooded and private. Very quiet and peaceful. Clean and well maintained," reports a visitor to Webster Park.
Clean facilities: Bathroom and shower quality ranks high on camper satisfaction. "We did a last minute reservation and ended up loving the place. There was good separation between the campsites and the bathrooms and showers were clean. Wasn't too far from a park along Ontario. Overall a great stay!" shares another Webster Park camper.
Affordable rates: Glamping near Webster offers good value compared to other New York destinations. A visitor to Ontario County Park at Gannett Hill explains, "Great secluded tent camping (recommend numbers 7 and 8), cabins are new and ample beds and space. Camper camping is close to everything, but less privacy. Numerous pavilions that are wonderful for parties or weddings."
What you should know
Seasonal operations: Most glamping facilities in the Webster area close by November. "This campground is open May 1st to October 31st," notes a regular Webster Park visitor.
Cell coverage limitations: Connectivity varies significantly between parks. One camper reports, "Cell phone coverage is poor by Verizon and T-Mobile, and there is no WiFi, and no camp store (but the town of Webster is nearby)."
Weather considerations: Proximity to Lake Ontario creates unique conditions. A visitor to Letchworth State Park Campground advises, "In most states, those without falls like Niagara, this state park would be the pride of the land. With three serious drops in as many miles, the Genesse River winds its way through what locals call the 'Grand Canyon of the East.'"
Tips for camping with families
Playground accessibility: Most parks feature central play areas for children. "I absolutely loved my time here with my son! Camp sites are private and have everything you need for tent camping! Showers and bathrooms clean! Sink available for dishes. Playground. Lots of beautiful trails!" shares a Webster Park visitor.
Loop-friendly biking: Several campgrounds feature paved or well-maintained loops. A frequent camper notes, "It is a smaller single loop campground with sites for tents/small trailers, larger trailers, and motor homes... The campground is very quiet and very kid friendly to allow them to walk around and ride or scooter the loop alone."
Family-oriented activities: Many sites offer organized events. A visitor to Canandaigua-Rochester KOA reports, "Our 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."
Tips from RVers
Hookup spacing: Power sources may be shared between sites. A camper at Cayuga Lake State Park Campground mentions, "We stayed at campsite#5- It was large enough to fit our 27' camper however it was very close (with no privacy) to the neighbors. Has electric hook-ups."
Water access planning: Not all sites offer direct water hookups. "You need a long hose for fresh water in the RV. No sewer sites," advises a Webster Park visitor.
Site leveling: Some areas require significant leveling equipment. According to feedback about Ontario County Park, "Only downside is that the RV sites don't have much shade but the tent sites do. Also make sure to bring plenty of leveling blocks as some sites are far from level."
