Super nice campground at a really good rate my son and I stayed there for six days and will definitely be going back

Great base for hiking around Saranac and Lake Placid. We spent 2 nights and could have comfortably stayed for 5/more. It's by the road so sleep with earplugs and you'll be alright.

We selected this campground because it was in the middle of Lake Placid and Saranac Lake. We quickly realized that there were plenty of guests who were not respecting the quiet time of 10 PM. One group of young men were obnoxiously running around and what appeared to be causing mischief (and possibly stealing) to other campers at around midnight. When we reported this to the office the next morning, the young lady Emily shrugged it off and rolled her eyes like it was not a big deal. We were located on campsite number 13, which was directly across from the bathrooms and next to the garbage and recycling so the noise level and light pollution was high. Also, lots of noise from traffic next to the busy road. We were also concerned on our final night with what appeared to be squatters sneaking in the bathroom and then once they all showered, they drove around the site to find an empty lot. I witnessed them leave in the early morning. These were definitely not campers leaving early in the morning for a hike as they did not appear to be dressed appropriately for outdoor activities. Another issue was ice and wood were unavailable, something we’ve come to enjoy and expect from our camping at other NY State Parks. The office was also closed early 2 nights, prior to the close time. More diligent and care with security would make this stay more pleasant, and perhaps a different lot would changed our perspective (noise and light) at this Campground. We will be looking elsewhere for our next camping adventure in the Adirondacks.

It’s a great location to stay two overnights here to set up our camp ⛺️ there was a very nice trail to do the hike up to a mountain there. View was great but taking a lots of energy. You need to be fit and with good health condition to be able to go up to the top. It’s a very rocky trail.

This is a small campground but it's a great one. The staff is so friendly, easy going and honestly just a delight to be around. The campground is very clean. Along with the bathroom and showers being excellent for camping. If you are looking for a cute and cozy campground right in the center of the city then come on by.

The only reason why I gave four stars instead of five was how crowded it was. Aside from that this is everything you want in a campground. Beautiful spots complete with outdoor fire places, clean bathrooms and perfect location make this your camping destination of choice.

Cheap campground. Rules for generator times are a pain. No electric hookups. Only 1 women's shower was in working order for entire campground and not the cleanest and you can't adjust the temp and the floor is all mud all the time. Website claimed to be fully booked but campground was nearly empty all week. Don't let the website fool you, there is no swimming or fishing within the campground but you're close to swimming holes and things within lake placid.

Great time. Caretaker of the campground was super!

Good location but the sites are too close to the Lumber yard next door. They leave their lights on all night.

Great location, more rustic DEC campground. The bathhouse could stand updating.
