Beautiful park!

Nice large spots available. Friendly employees. Beautiful lake with a nice trail. The road into the campground is super rough though.

This park is wonderful for families with kids. -We have an infant and a preschooler. The site and facilities are clean. It was very helpful to have a lean-to during a very rainy weekend. The lake and beach is lovely, clean, and the water is warm and clear. We love how there was a concession stand, a park, and picnic areas.

Local area: Because of the amount of rain, we decided to explore Manchester and bought some gear at Mountain Goat -rain pants for our hike. We ate at the Road Runner which was fantastic. Our hike was about 10 minutes out from manchester at Lyle Falls. Highly recommend 2.5 miles up to a gorgeous waterfall.

Additionally, we stopped by Honeypie in Jamaica for burgers and shakes!

Emerald Lake Campground

Beautiful ridgetop campground with large wooded sites and lots of room between sites. Showers were hot but minimal pressure. No hot water at the sinks. No utility sinks. Very nice small lake with a swimming beach. Everything was well maintained with friendly staff. No bugs in September.
