Rollins Pond Adirondack Preserve

On a recent trip to the Adirondak Mountains we camped at Rollins Ponds.  A beautiful wooded campground with adjoining ponds.  If you are a kayaker, canoer, or rowboat enthusiaist  you'll love this park.  There are no motorized boatd allowed on the pond as of the time we camped there. There is however a boat ramp where you can rent these and enjoy the placid waters of the ponds.   If you are a fisherman(which we are) there is good fishing in Whey Pond which is stocked with hungry trout.  We took a canoe portage from Rollins through Whey through Fish Creek and back crossing narrow strips of land  to get from pond to pond.  There are great hiking and biking trails as well.  The camp ground is very wooded and private and many sites are right on the water.  There are more than ample bathroom facilities with hot showers for your convenience.  If you are looking for a nearby day trip we climbed one of the High Peaks and for those not so adventurous Lake Placid Olympic facilities and Adirondak Museum at Blue Mountain Lake are approximately 30 miles away.  We will go back as we enjoyed this area.

Rollins Ponds Back to Nature 

Beautiful park, Clean bathrooms and showers, Very helpful staff

Great time

Nice clean bathrooms, and showers. sites are far enough apart. rangers always there to help if needed. Great place to camp.

Nice, woodsy 

Rollins Pond was the perfect tent-camping campground for our first trip to the Adirondacks. It was generally quiet Memorial Day weekend, and we were able to snag a lakeside site with plenty of trees and space for our tent, SUV, and more. The campground is hilly, so we drove to the nearby showers and garbage. The only drawbacks were the campground’s boathouse doesn’t open until June/July, which was not mentioned on the website, so we weren’t able to rent kayaks to use on the pond. There are no dishwashing sinks at the bathrooms.

Peaceful, spacious, wooded sites on the lake

if you want a nice place you can combine all 4 items. Rollins pond is for you. some campgrounds are by the roadway but some are really just bu the water. i highly recommend number 201, ot is pretty much secluded from others and has areally nice  natural docking  spot to put your kayak or whatever easily next to your tent. this site is pretty large, i am sure you will like it. 
the restroom could be in better condition but all in all it is definitely a place i wouls go back again

lake kayak tent camping !

WE love staying at Rollins Pond in a tent! Our family always meet friendly people and falling asleep to loons is priceless! We always have wildlife at our site. This past trip we had chipmunks, squirrels, ducks, and a crane. The time before, we had a family of loons!
