Adirondack/Meacham Lake

Tim Brown

This is a very nice, rustic campground, especially if you can get a lakefront site. We decided to camp here as a final outing of the season somewhat last minute, so no lake views for us. Our site was large with a good buffer between neighbors. Plenty of room to back in and maneuver our small (18') RV. There are NO HOOKUPS at any of the sites, so you'll want to be pretty self contained. Due to the lack of hookups, there were some campers running generators, but I didn't find it too intrusive. There are also plenty of trees (you're in the forest, after all), so anyone relying on solar panels or Starlink will need to be extra choosey about their site. Bathrooms are dotted throughout the campground, but these are not heated and made for some chilly October morning potty trips! Also, if you have an issue with spiders don't bother with the bathrooms. Along similar lines, the showers are not in with the bathrooms. Instead, there are designated shower facilities (also not heated) with non-adjustable, push-button showers. At least the water was warm. I'm not sure if this is strictly allowed, but we scoped out the sites in person after the park closed the previous fall. This gave us the chance to see what locations would work best for our rig. I would recommend this, as the website (Reserve America) doesn't always make it clear. Not all sites are appropriate for all rigs. This is NOT a cookie cutter KOA! All said and done, I would recommend Meacham Lake Campground, as long as you know what you are getting into. Facilities are old, but we'll maintained, and the surroundings are spectacular.

The campsite was really beautiful. I enjoyed that each site has a fire pit and picnic table nearby. My group very comfortably fit 2 cars and 6 people in 4 tents on the group site. The bathrooms and showers were convenient. There was also a convenient truck that came by between 5 and 6 pm each day to sell firewood, snacks, and some other basics.

This place has been basically a family ritual since the early 2000s, and there’s no other camping experience as good as here! The staff are always really friendly and helpful, and the sites are always spotless. The bathrooms are the cleanest i’ve seen for a campground, and the lake and hiking are great and even walkable straight from your campsite! It really is a special place, and has kept us coming back for over 15 years. And better yet, there is a couple who always come through with their ice cream truck, and they keep other commodities too like things from ice, all the way to tiki torches and yard games, and none of it is over priced either! They are spectacular people, and staying here let’s us support their business too, so it’s a win-win!

Meacham lake is a beautiful nature preserve in the Adirondack that offers access to the beautiful pristine Meacham lake for boaters, paddlers, and anglers. As well as their pristine camping facility that allows for great memories to be created. Our family has been coming here for over two generations. This campground never disappoints
