Cranberry Lake is located in the northwestern part of Adirondack Park. There are quite a few campgrounds here but most of them are geared toward touristy attractions that will draw in more people. To me, that makes the experience a little less genuine. If you're looking to get away from the noise and tourists, give Cranberry Lake a shot. Be prepared for non-motorized activities. If you get on the lake, you'll have to row or paddle.
