Bears Sleepy Hollow Campground
Overview
Overview
Bears Sleepy Hollow Campground in Pulaski, New York places travelers right into the distinct outdoor rhythm of Oswego County. Pulaski sits along the northern edge of Central New York, offering a quiet, wooded setting that appeals directly to road-trippers and anglers looking to escape the Interstate pace. The campground name signals a wooded, relaxed atmosphere where visitors trade city noise for the sounds of upstate foliage and local wildlife.
Location & Surroundings
Approaching via Interstate 81 or Route 11, drivers encounter the rolling terrain, dense deciduous forests, and agricultural lands characteristic of the eastern Lake Ontario watershed. Winters here bring substantial lake-effect snow, while summers offer mild temperatures and humid afternoons. The local geography is defined by seasonal shifts, making this region a striking destination for leaf-peeping in autumn or deep-woods camping during peak summer months.
Amenities & Park Features
Specifics regarding site layouts, maximum RV lengths, and utility hookups at this destination remain unlisted by the property. Travelers planning a stay should contact management directly to verify electric and water availability, waste disposal options, and pull-through capabilities. Asking ahead ensures rig compatibility with older, shaded campground footprints common throughout the forested regions of upstate New York.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
The surrounding region is globally renowned for its freshwater fishing, particularly the annual salmon and steelhead runs on the nearby Salmon River. Outdoor enthusiasts frequently visit the nearby Salmon River Falls or drive a short distance west to reach the sandy shores and dune formations of Lake Ontario at Selkirk Shores State Park. Day trips to the Thousand Islands region or Syracuse are also straightforward from this base.
Who This Park Is Best For
This location suits independent RVers, anglers, and nature-focused travelers who prioritize proximity to legendary rivers and state forests over urban convenience. It works exceptionally well for self-contained campers looking for a quiet basecamp to explore the Central New York wilderness and regional waterways without staying directly in crowded commercial resort settings.
Reviews

Although the actual tent camping experience was good, we were initially told there were trees separating sites. This was not the case. Yes there are large trees throughout the campground but the sites do not have any privacy. The showers were also an issue. At 75 cents for 7 minutes, it takes 5 minutes to get warm water. Paying for a cold shower is not pleasant. The showers don’t have curtains for a dressing area or a place to safely sit and dress. Showers need complete overhaul to be worth the cost.

I would definitely recommend!!! The creek is great for people who love to fish. People are very friendly and people care about the kids and want to keep them safe. There’s many places to eat by the campground. Lake Ontario is right next to the campground. I would not recommend camping by the creek when the lake is flooding!!! The camp ground is great tho

Haven't frequented in over a year, but was always ran and owned by nice down to earth people. Family friendly, pet friendly too I believe. As long as lake Ontario isn't flooding, there's lots of room for different types of camping, whether by tent, camper, RV, or cabin. Great fishing on premises too. Great restaurant/diner close by if you don't feel like cooking as well. I'd say tell Sal I said hello and I sent you, but if you did, he'd probably give you hell.. 🙃

I would not recommend this campgrounds to anyone with a family. Nothing for the kids to do. Rec room only has a pool table. If you are a fishermen you can do better elsewhere. Six years of broken promises, wifi always on the fritz, owner never around. Roads into the campgrounds are a mess, holes at the entrance and throughout the park. Damage to cars, trucks, and trailers waiting to happen. Bathhouse has broken toilets and showers. Washing machines don't work either. Reserve sites at your own risk
