It's a very nice place and there are some real beautiful sites to see, however there are some small things that could be improved. Overall it's a good place to spend some time.

Very clean and quiet, hot showers, ice and firewood on site. The only change I would make is lower the cost of firewood.

The campsites are beautiful and well kept. It’s gorgeous up there. Also. The swimming was spectacular!!

I almost got eaten by a black bear here. Still came back to visit any time relatives and friends were staying, but that was the last time I ever stayed overnight in a tent ngl. Great place, great trails, nothing negative about it. I'd recommend a campter/rv though... Tents feel like a 'bear burrito' even though they tend to be more docile than hostile, when one tries to get into your tent, it feels hostile. It's still a story I tell with a laugh. I live in the woods now because of staying at places like this. Nothing beats waking up to birds singing.

Lewey Lake Campground offers everyone a lot. The campground is situated on Lewey Lake and has a great views of the Adirondack Mountains. It is also conveniently located by the larger and more well known Indian Lake. A range of outdoor activities are offered at the campground including fishing, swimming, kayaking, and hiking. The lake is easy to access if you want to kayak or canoe. Motor boats are allowed but the boat launch site is run down and it is very hard to launch from here. Fishing in the lake is good. A variety of fish including northern pike, bass, perch, bullhead, and panfish are native to the lake. It is best to go to the southern end of the lake near the Miami River for the best fishing. The beach at the lake is very small. There are shower and garbage disposal facilities in the campground. Occasionally, bears are a nuisance in the campground. The campground is very popular. There are 195 campsites at the campground, but they fill up quickly. Make a reservation early if you want to camp here. The campground offers much to do even if just visiting for day use. If staying in the Adirondacks consider Lewey Lake.

I spent a week the last week of July and then again last weekend. And booked a site for this coming weekend. This place is beautiful and breath taking. This is a very well maintained campground. The bathrooms are some of the cleanest campground bathrooms I have seen. The care taker is very active and will help in any way he can. They do not allow black garbage bags... So MAKE SURE you bring White or CLEAR garbage bags!!!! They definitely on top of that.. But its definitely a beautiful peaceful breath taking relaxing enjoyable place.. Its like a Gem in the mountains.

Good campground. Nice thing is it is in-between lewey and Indian lake so you can boat into both lakes. I have stayed there twice so far and have had a good time each time. One of the few lakes that has a swimming area that you can go in past your waist into the water in.

For a family friendly camp it was pretty decent. A little louder during the day and evening g than I liked it but people were respectful for quiet times. Modern shower houses which provided a much needed evening wash. Bathrooms well kept. We put in at the campground Beach and paddled our kayaks to Indian lake. All around a great spot.

Very good camp ground. I have two reasons for just four stars. The first is road noise, most sites are close to the state highway. Second is the complete lack of electric sites. I realize DEC campgrounds are supposed to be wilderness but realistically they are not. People with disabilities and their families should be able to enjoy camping as well as anyone else. I have a granddaughter that needs vent assisted breathing and various other medically needed equipment and she cannot go camping with her family. A few electric sites would do a lot to make camping accessible to these people.
