New Discovery State Park Campground
Great state park
Most sites are secluded. There is a creepy old cemetery in walking distance. Nice showers on site !!
4 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Branbury State Park Campground in Salisbury provides RV camping with water and electric hookups, sanitary dump station, and sewer connections. The campground operates from Memorial Day weekend through Columbus Day weekend and accommodates big rigs with spacious sites. Lake Bomoseen KOA and Brookwood RV Resort offer full hookup RV campsite options with 50-amp electric service for larger motorhomes. Brookwood features level, gravel sites with water, sewer, and electric connections approximately 40 miles from Salisbury. "Sites were really wooded, quiet, level, and spread out. Staff were super-helpful."
Seasonal availability varies significantly across the region, with most parks closing between mid-October and early May. Lake George area RV parks remain popular destinations for Salisbury visitors willing to drive approximately 45 minutes, offering additional amenities like WiFi and cable connections. Cell service can be unreliable at more remote locations, particularly at higher elevations. Winter road conditions may limit access to campgrounds with steep entry roads. Many parks accommodate pets with specific restrictions, though some state parks maintain no-pet policies. Dump stations are available at most developed RV parks, while laundry facilities are less common. Advance reservations are strongly recommended during peak foliage season when campgrounds regularly reach capacity.
"Campground is placed 10 minutes from the bottom of Lake George with great hiking trails in the surrounding area. The campground it’s self it’s very clean in every aspect."

Most sites are secluded. There is a creepy old cemetery in walking distance. Nice showers on site !!
Car camped on Sunday of Columbus Day weekend in October. This was their closing weekend and lots of spaces were available. Stayed in tent circle loop and it was almost empty. Great access to lake shore and bike path. Walked back toward marina and town in the evening and ran in the morning the other direction going out to Rock Point. Didn’t use the shower facilities. The bathroom near our loop only had sinks and toilets and was fine.
Nice campground near Killington, VT. Water and dump station. Not for big rigs we have a 21 ft TT. Things were tight but doable. One of the few Vermont state campgrounds that is still open. Most close from second Monday in October until Memorial Day.
Stayed here to be able to do the bike trail. Was warned to keep the bikes locked up. The sites are very close together. The picnic tables and fire pits(tire rims) are moveable. Our picnic table was in rough shape and broken.
The bathrooms have keypads on them but on our last morning there was a guy in the bathroom with his pants on the floor sitting in a shower chair for a couple of hours. The bathrooms also have spiders all throughout them. The water pressure was high and the showers were hot.
This is a quiet campground in a quiet part of the state. The terrain is mountainous, and all of the sites are private. There are two loops, one for tents/RVs and one for lean-tos. We stayed in the Willow lean-to, and while our site didn't have a view, it was one of the most private sites we've stayed in and just a short walk to the bathhouse.
The campground was created by the CCC in the 1930s, and from what I've heard, it hasn't changed much since that time. While we were here, we visited the Calvin Coolidge State Historic Site (very cool), Long Trail Brewing, and the town of Woodstock. Great trip!
Simply said, if you like a well maintained place with a swim beach, floating dock, grass galore, space to stretch out, and more, this is the place. It’s beautiful. As a bonus, it’s cost effective over other RV parks. If you want free, nope. If you want wild open spaces, nope. You a great lush big clean park that feels like your Owen estate, then come check this place out. We will be back.
Very Disappointed With the Changes
Crown Point Campground used to be a wonderful place to camp. Unfortunately, since Happy Grounds purchased the campground, we have seen a significant decline in the overall experience.
I do want to make one thing very clear: the woman managing the campground is absolutely wonderful. She genuinely cares about the campers, is kind, helpful, and does her best to make people feel welcome. Our frustrations are not directed toward her. She deserves recognition for the effort she puts in, especially given the circumstances.
Unfortunately, there are serious concerns with the direction the campground has taken. There is no reliable Wi-Fi or cell service, which is especially concerning because there is no dependable way to call out in the event of an emergency. We have also seen a significant change in the atmosphere and clientele. Drugs have been found on the premises, including needles, which is extremely concerning for the safety of campers, especially families with children.
The campground has also become increasingly overcrowded. Tent sites have had upwards of 10 people on a single site, creating a very different camping experience from what many long-time campers originally signed up for.
Seasonal campers were told that there would be a gradual increase over two years to bring rates up to the new “going rate.” However, when the new contracts came out for next year, the price had increased by approximately $900. That is a substantial increase for a campground that, in our opinion, has continued to decline rather than improve.
What was perhaps most disappointing was how campers' concerns were handled. When people questioned the increase and expressed their frustrations, the response from the corporation was, and I quote:
“Get out and leave. I’ve heard enough complaints. Just leave if you don’t like it.”
That is an incredibly disappointing way to speak to people who have supported this campground for years.
It is heartbreaking to see what Crown Point Campground has become. There are good people here, and the campground itself has so much potential. Most importantly, the manager genuinely cares about the campers, and she deserves credit for that.
Our hope is that Happy Grounds will listen to the people who have invested years of their time and money here, address the safety and overcrowding concerns, and bring back the sense of community that once made Crown Point such a wonderful place to camp.
Good size campground with three loops. 2 shower / restroom facilities. Many of the sites are simply grass. There are a few gravel ones. The staff has no problem with driving on the or parking on grass. All sites have a firepit. Wood can be obtained locally. There is no store at the camp. There is only one dump station. There is a boat launch with limited trailer parking although when we stayed (Aug 2026) the water was only 18 in to 2 ft deep at docks. Heavily choked with vegetation. Shower facilities were clean enough but could use more attention, heavy cobwebs at lights, corners and edges of shower pretty dark with mold. Plenty of fresh water spigots throughout the camp. Camp is on the banks of lake Champlain, although only a couple sites have a lake view. Ruins of two pre-revolutionary war forts are within walking distance and offer a great introduction to life in the early 18th century. Fort Ticonderoga is a 30 min drive and will take most of the day to tour. Well worth the trip. Only 3 min drive to Vermont. I would stay again.
We spent a long weekend at Moose Hillock in Fort Ann, New York, to visit Lake George. This is a difficult place for me to review. But I’ll do my best to share my experience.
The pool is the main attraction here and probably the largest and most ridiculous I’ve ever seen at a campground. Great for young kids.
THINGS I LIKED:
— The sites are enormous and private, probably the biggest sites we’ve ever seen at any campground we’ve stayed at.
— The mature trees are everywhere, great for privacy.
— It’s located about 25-minutes to the heart of Lake George. Easy drive away but not in the loud and busy area.
— The camp store is pretty good and sells snacks, drinks, basic supplies, and souvenirs.
THINGS I DIDN’T LIKE SO MUCH:
— Our site(# 709) was sloped, so much that even with leveling boards under the rear wheels, rear jacks fully extended and front jacks fully retracted, we couldn’t level. That’s annoying and so easily fixed by a campground this size with this array of equipment and resources.
— Except for the entry roads, the rest of the park is gravel and dirt, which was extremely dusty. Our vehicles and our stuff were instantly covered by this dusty dirt which was a never-ending battle to keep outside.
— I’m ok paying premium money for a great site, but this site wasn’t matched to the price. I paid$647.38 for 3-nights. That’s$215.79 per night.
WOULD WE COME BACK?
Probably not. For me, having a level site that’s not covered in dirt and dust is important— especially when it costs$215 per night. There’s a much nicer park about 10-minutes away(closer to Lake George) where we’ve stayed in the past. The sites are smaller, but they’re level.
The Lake Dunmore area around Salisbury, Vermont offers camping options in the Green Mountains region at 400-500 feet elevation. Winter temperatures routinely drop below freezing, with summer highs averaging in the 70s. Camping near Lake Dunmore provides water recreation opportunities with varying levels of amenities and services depending on the campground location.
Hiking trails: Access Rattlesnake Mountain from Branbury State Park Campground for panoramic views of Lake Dunmore. "I've been here dozens of times, grew up going here every year and hiking rattlesnake. We make the trip from RI. Love to lake access, secluded camping, the hiking and remote area," notes Stephen T.
Beach activities: Lake Dunmore offers swimming and boating access with designated areas. "The day use section has a wonderful beach with a swimming area and boat launch. Large trees provide shade on a grassy lawn, and grills are available," explains Lisa S. about Branbury State Park Campground.
Gem mining: Available at some campgrounds for children and adults. "Being a fan of gems, I definitely bought an embarrassing amount of dirt for the gem mining (Got some good finds, so worth it!)" reports Krys M. about Spacious Skies Adirondack Peaks.
Wooded privacy: Many sites offer natural separation and shade. "Sites were large enough to accommodate our RV and tow car but some campsites were pretty small and would not fit large RVs. Roads in the park are confusing because none are parallel or perpendicular so we had to go slow just to make sure we didn't miss a turn in the RV," explains Nancy W.
Clean facilities: Bathhouses and common areas are regularly maintained. "Bathrooms are flushing compost. However, there are only four showers for the whole campground. Book early if you want to get a site with a lean-to!" advises Nicole E. from Lake George RV Park.
Waterfront access: Multiple campgrounds offer direct lake or river access. "We enjoyed the water view and the staff was so nice to us! On our favorites list for sure!" says Gayle S.
Bear awareness: Bears are active in the region, requiring proper food storage. "Just make sure you put your food and trash away- there are black bears in the area!" warns Nicole E.
Booking timeline: Reserve well ahead for peak season, especially for lean-tos. "This is a total family playground and if that is what you are looking for, this is your place! There are tons of activities, lots of families and 'stuff' going on all the time," shares Nancy W. about Lake George Escape Campground.
Variable site sizes: Some campgrounds have inconsistent site dimensions. "Overall, this was not our kind of campground. There are lots of amenities and activities for kids and families but we typically do not use those... Campsites in the park are pretty inconsistent– meaning some are long and wide with good privacy but others are not."
Kid-friendly activities: Look for campgrounds with designated play areas and programs. "The kids loved the gem mining and train rides!! We enjoyed the water view and the staff was so nice to us!" says Gayle S. about Brookside RV Camping.
Swimming options: Some campgrounds maintain multiple pools or swimming areas. "Spacious sites close to great amenities! Super staff! Clean and updated facilities. Close to beautiful hiking, lake activities and rail bikes. We can't wait to come back!" reports Amanda K.
Age-appropriate recreation: Different campgrounds cater to different age groups. "The place was packed but you wouldn't know it. So peaceful. The pool was very cold but spotless, which was surprising since there's pine trees all around. We would definitely go back. Only side note would be that if we brought our kids, ages 8, 16 and 19, they might be a little bored," notes Cecilia K.
Site selection: Choose sites based on your specific RV requirements. "Right on the beautiful Schroon River and only fifteen minutes to Bolton Landing shops and restaurants. The downside is the noise from the Northway within earshot and from the noisy seasonal campers who insist on blasting their music to the whole campground," cautions Jeffrey B. about Dorset RV Park.
Leveling requirements: Bring leveling blocks for uneven sites. "Our site was level but some definitely were not. We got twenty or so television channels with the cable hookup. The hookups were all well-placed and we didn't have any issues with the electric and the wifi at our site worked well," reports Nancy W.
Maneuverability considerations: Some campgrounds have tight turns or low-hanging branches. "Larger rigs might want to avoid loop 6-14, especially for sites 8-12. Tree placement and a pretty sharp 110+ degree turn makes it challenging to maneuver," warns Katie E.
