Adirondack/Eighth Lake

th call

Have visited for last 15 years. Rustic camping with sites separated by trees. Many lake sites but you have to reserve early early early. Only concern is entry and exit roads that are rough and have high raised middle that can scrape bottom of vehicle. Visit to the Cathedral of Pines nearby is recommended. Never seen pine trees that large in NY.

There are a lot of sites to accommodate all. Can't give 5 stars because I'm a glamper not a camper. No power except my generator and their generator hrs kinda sucked! I'm up very early and don't want to wait until 9AM for a cup of coffee. So I had to brew it the night before and heat it up on the stove. Will make other arrangements in the future for that problem. Would recommend it. Will go again.

First time back here in about 15 years and I'm happy to say it's mostly the same as it has always been, with a few welcome updates to the campsites to level them off and make them less flood-prone. The lake is as beautiful as it ever was.

Eight Lake is a great campground to unplug (no cell service) and unwind! My family has been camping here for over 50 years! First time camping here was when I was 10, we camped on the Eighth Lake side on campsite #29, $2 a night! 52 years later and we are still camping here! I camped with my husband and my son’s family we camped on the Seventh Lake side we were on site #117 very large site right across from the boat launch and dock, get view of the lake even from across the street. Son was on site #114 huge site right on the lake. There are not a lot of sites lakeside, but the ones that are have great access to the water. Most of the sites at the campground are large and well spaced out and very wooded. Sites are $22 a night (amazing only a $20 increase in price 52 years later)! The lakes are beautiful and the water is crystal clear and listening to the call of the loons was wonderful. Definitely recommend the hiking trail to Bug Lake, the trail head is just before the entrance to the Seventh Lake side of the campground. Great campground for getting around on your bike. The staff is super friendly! I highly recommend this campground it is so peaceful and quiet!
