Best RV Parks & Resorts near Windham, NY

Several RV parks with full hookups operate seasonally near Windham in the Catskill Mountains. Camp Catskills RV Park provides electric, sewer, and water hookups across 40 sites surrounded by wooded terrain. "This campground is beautiful. Nice woods with rocks and a river. We were in the rally area which is like a group site because that's all that was left for Fourth of July weekend. But the regular RV sites look like they provide lots of privacy," noted one visitor. North-South Lake Campground accommodates big rigs with 50-amp electrical service, water connections, and a dump station, operating from mid-May through late October. Country Roads Campground in Gilboa offers 118 spacious RV sites with 30/50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer hookups from mid-May until Columbus Day weekend.

Narrow roads with tight turns present challenges for larger motorhome access at several mountain campgrounds. One RV owner reported being "within 2 inches or less of trees on 4 or 5 instances getting in and out of our site," noting they "had to drive off of the road on several occasions to make it through." Most RV parks have sanitary dump stations, though Rondout Valley offers a honeywagon service for those preferring not to move their rig. Cell service varies significantly throughout the mountainous region, with campgrounds closer to towns generally providing better connectivity. Pet policies differ between parks, with most allowing pets but requiring current rabies documentation rather than just tags. Reservation requirements become particularly important during fall foliage season when occupancy rates peak across the region.

    Cooperstown KOA

    Nice Park

    This park is located approximately 12.5 miles from downtown Cooperstown and is set in the quiet rural countryside of New York. The mature trees make for beautiful scenery in the fall. There is a mix of sites varying from tent, RV, rental trailers, and camping cabins/cottages/lodges bringing the total number of sites to 120. Back-in and pull-thru sites are available. Site types include full hookup, water and electric, and no hookup with prices varying depending upon site. You can choose between 30/20 or 50 amp electric service. Interior roads are gravel and some site pads are gravel while others are grass. 

    The park is nicely terraced and all the sites are level. Patios were a grassy/dirt area with a picnic table and fire pit. Our site (#41) was a pull-thru but there was no way we could drive our 45’ motorhome forward out of the site because of a large tree and narrow roads. So we ended up having to back out. The free wifi worked well as did our Verizon 4G phone and hotspot. We picked up a dozen or so television channels with our antenna. The park does have a fair amount of trees that would interfere with roof-mounted satellite dishes so you would have to pick your site carefully. But, there are some 30 amp and no hook-up sites that are clear. This is a typical KOA with lots of amenities including a swimming pool(which was closed for the season when we were there), a playground, volleyball court, basketball court, jump house, pavilion, recreation room, bicycle rental, and horseshoes. Showers, restrooms and laundry are also present and clean. There is a propane filling station. While there is no fenced-in dog park there is a pet walking area. The surrounding area is pretty rural and the closest town (Richfield Springs– which is very small) is five miles away and where you will find restaurants, gas station, grocery store, and more. A few miles from the park is a creamery that has a café. 

    Approximately five miles away is Glimmerglass State Park which was great for hiking and kayaking Otsego Lake. There is a also a historic house at the park that you can tour and the country’s oldest covered bridge. Cooperstown is a little over twelve miles away from the park but well worth a trip. Not only is Cooperstown home to the National Baseball Hall of Fame but it is a charming downtown well worth exploring. Other nearby attractions include The Farmers Museum, Fenimore Art Museum, Hero’s of Baseball Wax Museum, Glimmerglass Opera, and Cooperstown Brewing Company.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    FAMILY HEAVEN

    This is a HUGE Jellystone park in upstate NY. There are literally hundreds of cabins and RV sites. We are in site 136, which is a back in spot. Plenty of room between campers. Gravel spot which is pretty level. Full hookups. Picnic table, cable, fire ring, large camp store, showers, toilets, and full laundry area. Also has playgrounds, pillow jump, fishing pond, golf carts, game room, Waterpark, pool, and tennis courts. All of this nestled into the mountains. Nice and family friendly.

    Jellystone Park Gardiner

    Chillaxing Getaway

    We stayed at Yogi Bear’s Jellystone Park Camp-Resort along the Walllkill River in Gardiner, NY, for a four-night chill-out vacation. We’re so glad we did! 

    Our site was called Riverfront Red Carpet. It was spacious, level, waterfront, and partially shaded thanks to some mature trees. Site#22 included a large concrete pad, picnic table, charcoal grill, and large fire ring. Everything was in great condition. It was nice having plenty of space to not be on top of our neighbors. We had full hookups with 50-amp electrical service- which all worked fine. 

    The entire park seemed to be well maintained and clean. There’s a small waterpark which seemed good for younger kids, an eatery, and ice cream shop. The camp store was well-stocked with food, camping supplies, and souvenirs. There is a game room and multiple bath houses(which we didn’t use). The park’s roadways are all paved and easy to navigate. Despite being nearly filled to capacity including tons of young children, the park was quiet each night with no noisy ‘bad campers.’ 

    We found our interactions with the staff to be helpful and attentive. We really appreciate friendly staff. 

    Overall, this was a great stay at a great RV park. I’d only mention two negatives, neither was a big deal. It took 45-minutes to check-in. In fairness, we arrived at check-in time(3:00 PM) on a Sunday. There were a dozen other RVs checking in at the same time and they just weren’t equipped for that. Also, our Verizon cell service was practically non-existent and the park’s wifi service was just as horrible. If we needed connectivity, this would have been a major problem. I reduced a star in my review simply because it’s 2021 and wifi has become an expectation. 

    We booked on campspot.com and paid$196 per night+$35 to lock our site+$2 booking fee less a 20% promo discount.

    Glimmerglass State Park Campground

    Small Campground Close to Attractions

    Upon arrival we were surprised by the limited amount of sites, especially after coming from larger state parks. It wasn't necessarily a bad things for it to be small, but it seemed isolated from the beach, hiking trails, and other unique experiences. Our site(#31) faced directly to site#6 from the other loop. If you are traveling with another group, I would recommend booking these two sites. There is a small, hop-able, stream that runs in between them. Verizon cell service worked well and I was able to work remotely with video calls from our RV. We do have a Pepwave BR1 Max Pro to boost cell signal. We would stay here again to visit Cooperstown and Ommegang.

    Family friendly/ rocky tent campsite’s

    Located in the Catskills. This is a family friendly there’s bathrooms/showers playground, pool, potable water and a outdoor pavilion. Located near hiking in the Catskills and 15 mins to Woodstock.

    Little Pond Campground

    A Park with Tent Camping Options, Great Hiking Trails

    Had a great summer camping weekend at Little Pond.

    Pros:

    - Near wonderful, little-used hiking trails - challenging ones, too!

    - Close to Catskill town options to explore, e.g. Livingston Manor

    - picnic table and room to park at your site

    - there is a dump station and recycling center.

    - Clean bathrooms and shower facilities

    - Nice tent sites with well-maintained fire pits (have rack for grilling over coals, very large fire pits, sturdy)

    - payphone near entrance/park ranger's office

    - firewood for sale at ranger's office

    -wildlife: hummingbirds on the path around Little Pond, frogs, deer, birds

    - foraging: plaintain, raspberries near camp, blueberries and huckleberries on hike

    - views on hike

    - ruins on hike

    Cons

    - no cell service, however, if you hike to a mountain top can have fun joking with those you call about that's what it took to be able to get a signal and be in touch with them :-)

    - weekend around the lake is more like a park with day-trippers, as opposed to serene wilderness/lakeside camping. 

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    There was a high school group (on Satuday?) there that made it feel more like a family/public place than a wilderness getaway. The hiking, however, more than made up for it. The trail we took to get to the top and, at last, have cell phone service and AWESOME views more than made up for that.

    The Park Rangers were helpful and unobtrusive. They drove their carts around periodically but not like they were hovering in any one spot or making trouble for anyone. 

    We like visiting the nearby towns and breweries. It was a wondrful weekend. They have some tent sites right on the lake for hike-ins. If you drive, you have to carry all your stuff for awhile before you get to yourcamp site. However, these are right on the lake in supreme spots, even with "old school" outhouses a stone's throw away.

    I recommend Little Pond for a weekend. If you stay longer, be sure to check  out the surrounding area. We stayed at campsite 2, which was ok, but not on the lake. Go for a site on the lake, even if you have to carry your stuff to set up, it was breathtaking in the morning to see the mist rising off the lake.

    Schodack Island State Park Campground

    Spacious State Park

    I’ve yet to have a bad experience at a state park. They are always better maintained and are typically more beautiful and interactive than national park campgrounds and even most RV parks.

    The sites are amongst the most spacious I’ve ever seen. RV sites offer 30/50 amp electricity. There are several hiking trails, a bike trail, a really awesome playground, boat dock, and lots of picnicking.

    The bathrooms are clean. The showers are large, but they do operate on a push system where you can’t adjust the pressure, temp, or how long the water comes out, so just be aware of that. Lots of water fill ups in the campground. Dump station on the way out. Two different book exchanges. Mostly filled with Danielle Steele, which is not my preference, but maybe someone will spice it up in the future.

    ATT and Verizon fluctuate between 1-3 bars. It was enough for me to work - downloading files, sending emails, and conducting non-video zoom calls. At night we were able to stream with just a little buffering needed throughout.

    Lots of bunnies, weasels, chipmunks, birds, and butterflies. Plenty of space to walk the dog. Be sure to bring your dogs rabies records!! They don’t let you in with just the tag, it has to be the paper records. We’re full time so not a problem as it’s always with me, but they are very strict on rabies requirements

    Definitely recommend.

    Glimmerglass State Park Campground

    Majestic views. This parked has earned it's name for that view!

    It is pet friendly. We stayed with our 3 small children. Enjoyed bike riding through the park. water was beautiful. Lots of waterfront access. It was during the off season in early spring but still very well maintained and clean. Surprised to see so many campers there during the spring when we pulled in but not after seeing the views. Park is nice and easy to navigate with a 30ft travel trailer behind me. My husband loved the fishing! My children loved the water and trails. We visited the Baseball National Hall of Fame, Fenimore Art Museum and the Farmers Museum nearby in Cooperstown. This was our family's favorite spring break vacation ever. Showers had hot water and we were allowed to sue our generator no problem. Also my husband & I went to Brewery Omegang and had the best tasting ever!

    Spacious Skies Woodland Hills

    A peaceful place with character.

    My first visit to New York state was amazing, largely in part due to my campsite at the Woodland Hills campground. I had a back in site and was having problems with my camper, and they were able to change to a pull through at time of check in. However, it was in early May and before the summer crowds. The pond has a fountain which sounds like a small waterfall at night, and wildflowers were in bloom. Very nice bathrooms and showers, and my dog loved the dog park.


Guide to Windham

Campers visiting Windham, New York can find cabin accommodations and tent sites throughout the Catskills region. The area sits at elevations ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 feet, creating cooler summer temperatures than surrounding lowlands. Cell service can drop unexpectedly in mountain valleys, particularly at campgrounds located more than 5 miles from major highways.

What to do

Hiking at Kaaterskill Falls: North-South Lake Campground provides excellent access to popular trails. "Hiking nearby is also relatively easy and includes the newly opened (as of 2016) viewing platform for Kaasterskill falls, which is minutes down the road from the campground," notes one visitor to North-South Lake Campground.

Swimming in clean lakes: Lake Taghkanic State Park offers family-friendly swimming options. "The lake is beautiful and clean. Expect to pay $15 fee (I think) to use your paddleboards/kayaks etc. Worth every penny," according to a camper at Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground.

Fishing for bass: Try shore fishing at Rudd Pond. "Being able to fish and catching 2 decent-sized largemouth bass made everything all ok!! There is plenty of fishing access from shore and you can rent a boat for the whole day to fish on the water," mentions a visitor to Rudd Pond Area.

Stargazing opportunities: Find dark skies at secluded campgrounds. "Late night, stargazing over the lake is a great pastime, because the water is calm and the light pollution is low," says a camper at Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground.

What campers like

Platform tent sites: Several campgrounds offer raised platforms for tents. "The platforms kept us off the ground and were helpful in setting up appropriate tarp protection," explains a camper at Taconic State Park during rainy weather.

Clean bathroom facilities: Campgrounds maintain their facilities regularly. "Superb. Quiet, clean enough and well worth the price. Showers are hot and there's great water pressure," mentions a visitor at Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground.

Scenic waterfront locations: Many rv parks near Windham, New York feature water access. "Well maintained, located on the Mohawk River. Shady, grassy areas. Boat launch and pier," writes a reviewer about Arrowhead Marina & RV Park.

Spacious campsites: Some parks offer more room between sites. "Beautiful campground. Stayed in The Pines section. Spacious sites," notes a camper at Country Roads Campground.

What you should know

Seasonal operation limitations: Most rv campgrounds near Windham, New York operate from May through October. "May 19 to October 22" is the operating season for North-South Lake Campground, while most others close by mid-October.

Platform requirements: Some tent sites require specific setup. "Almost all of the sites have platforms to pitch your tent on, although there are a couple of flatter spots without platforms (although they still have a slope)," explains a visitor to Taconic State Park.

Site privacy varies: Campgrounds offer different levels of seclusion. "The campsites are pretty close together, so if the campground is full, you are rather close to your neighbors," warns a camper at Taconic State Park.
