Old Forge Camping Resort

Close to skiing. Snowmobiling is the real reason to come here. Dry cabins or cottages with bath and shower are available. Snowmobile trails are accessible from the campground and seasonal rentals are available. The staff will help you with snow removal and we have even had Valentine Weekend with chocolates and Champagne delivered to our cabin. Call them and plan a winter weekend with no worries.

Winter is the In Off Season

The sites are rather tight and on top of each other but that just makes for closer neighbor's. With the connection of the stay and play with enchanted forrest water safari it makes for a great time. The ability to see bears through the camp ground and a great lake for kayaking there is something for everyone.

Tight spots friendly neighbors

Although I didn’t camp here and I only spent the day, I really enjoyed myself! it’s absolutely beautiful with a huge lake! Also, the deer are incredible friendly and will walk right up to you 😍


Lots of black bears in area heed the warnings regarding keeping cars and camper locked keep food and cooler secure

Family friendly 

This campground does not have grills at the primitive tent sites. So bring your own or buy a rack for $20 at the camp store. Sites are spacious. Staff was very friendly.

Comfortable 

Very nice and great things to do in the area. Water park is awesome!! Been going for years ! Lots of mountains to climb in the area. Bald mountain is my favorite with greAt views! Great little town to walk through and shop in.

Great place to go and hang for a week. 

Gone here almost every year! We rent the cabin and go to the park every year. make sure you bring a air mattress! You can rent kayaks and paddle boats for like $6 dollars. We also went on a hike which was a lot of fun

Love it 

My family and I have been visiting Old Forge Camping Resort for 20+ years. This is one of the most family friendly resorts and a perfect weekend getaway for those living in other parts of New York State. The visitors/welcome center has everything you need, including firewood, sweatshirts and homemade breakfast sandwiches. There is endless RV camping, tent camping, cabins and cottages available. Make sure you book far enough in advance. We typically book 1 year prior for the cottages. 

The bathrooms and grounds are well maintained and accessible from wherever you are in the park. There are hiking, biking and running trails galore. A volleyball court, playground and even a lake to fish or rent paddle boards. There is a bus from the campground that takes you to enchanted forest safari, which is a great way to avoid parking. Would recommend 100%

Old Forge Camping Resort, NY

Nice campground, but a little cramped, and wasn't a fan of the sandy sites but we did love the area, and the really enjoyed the campground overall. We would definitely visit again

Beautiful area

Wanted to like it but it feels too crowded and overused.  Is this a man made lake?  Not bad fishing and plenty of convenienves but couldnt launch our kayaks from our premium watersite.  Definitely not worth the price.
