Hamlin Beach State Park Campground

I have camped there. If you do camp there do not reserve site A28. There is not enough pad to level a trailer. I could not get the front of my trailer low enough to level. It is a drainage run for the street and nothing but mud when it rains. The site is small and the fire pit is dug in and is flooded with water. There is only enough room to park one car. There was no dry spot to put up a tent. Very unhappy with this site. It needs some TLC.

Big park with several loops.  Separate and across two roads from the Beach section of the Park. Got a reservation for Friday and Saturday but the spot in loop D was an inclined driveway next to the high voltage boxes for the campground.  Had to move the fire ring after smoking ourselves out the first night.  Right across from the building they called a bath house.  Filthy, urinal broken, one shower broken in mens.   Feces on the floor in womens.  Friday night quiet hours did not exist.  Spent Saturday early am listening to the neighbor loudly declare her preferences in music, men and liquor.  No Ranger in sight.

Minor redeeming qualities:  Nice beach and bike trails across road from campground.  Three lane dump station (only one for a four loop campground with 100s of "spots")

Beware:  Rigs approaching from East there are very low bridges (11' 3') between Rochester and the Park on the Parkway.

Really clean sites with lots of trees but you’re still pretty close to your neighbors so not a ton of privacy. Bath houses are beautiful & the beach is lovely! We walked our dogs all along the trails & they played in the water down at the rocky area!!

BUT if you go here in a camper you better be super confident & comfortable maneuvering it. We have a 37 ft fifth wheel & if it wasn’t for how comfortable my husband is then we wouldn’t have gotten into our site. Lots of trees make the sites narrow & tight when backing in! But not impossible if you know what you’re doing.
