An Easy Stop Along Lake Champlain

Small and quiet campground, right at the Lake Champlain Visitor’s Center and bridge which crosses from NY to VT.  Many sites have a view of Lake Champlain, as well as this beautiful bridge. There are also some nice picnic spots.

This historic site is dedicated to the preservation and interpretation of the ruins of 2 fortifications from the colonial wars between the British and French, as well as the Champlain Memorial Lighthouse. We used this site as a quick stop between the Adirondacks and Burlington, VT.

Sites are basic with a picnic table and fire ring. Trash and drinking water are available, as well as flush toilets and hot showers. Bathrooms are kept clean and there is an amazing dishwashing facility. Some sites can accommodate small to medium RV’s, but most are perfect for tents (no tent pads though).  All sites are open, sunny but with very little privacy between sites.

Port Henry is the closest town, with everything you made need for your camping trip. The surrounding area is perfect for road biking and kayaking on the lake.
