Rustic campground with gross pit toilets and no hookups, dumpsters or dump station. Ok to tent camp here or bring a pop up BUT we’re in a 40’ motorhome and it was very VERY tight to navigate to our site. Site was long and somewhat level but had low hanging trees. It is also on a noisy road. Cost $22 a night with no amenities. We won’t return. Oh, and really odd check-in time 2-9 and you DO have to check in even with a reservation.

Ok. We knew it was a primitive campground Not our first time. But when I say nasty, it's an understatement. We rated it 2 stars because it is a beautiful place. Also, when I read about a state park having a playground I thought the kids would be excited. No... no. No.no. I wouldn't let my children anywhere near that playground even if they wanted to. (Which they didnt) and what looked like a seesaw was a lopsided merry-go-round. The campsite is small.. our truck filled most of the campsite leaving very little room for our large tent. Also.. the entire campground is right next to the main road, which can be easily seen even in the summertime and is noisy. Not sure what it's like there at night though, because we left shortly after using the outhouse. We've used an outhouse many times but this was unbearable. If you book a reservation online make sure to look at the complete map, as the one where you choose your campsite does not show many of the unattractive aspects of the campground. I added a few pics of the place. Should have got one of the toilet but it just wasn't worth it.

a very quiet place, perfect to disconnect from stress and technology, the only bad thing is the very dirty bathrooms, no water to wash your hands and with a bad smell in the entire camp area

Beautiful sceneries road in a Catskills Mountains. My wife and I drove from Windham NY to Downsville NY. This was not the shortest way to get home but it was worth it.

Horrible experience. Worst camp host ever! This place is a noisy madhouse. Had dogs barking loudly and constantly all around, infants screaming, camp host with admitted mental defect who did nothing but make situation worse. Parks Dept personnel was not helpful. Only redeeming thing was the county sheriff’s officer who was extremely helpful. I’m sure this place might be quiet in the winter (if it’s open?) but this time of year it’s about as un peaceful as I can imagine a campground to be. Also right next to major road with loud vehicles coming by frequently.

We were located at site 22: it was clean, but was small, close to the road, and very close to adjacent sites. Downwind from the lavatories and we could hear cars all through the night. Conveniently located. The Devils path hike just down the road is extremely nice, moderate, and steep.

Camped here a few times in the 80's, 90's, and early 2000's...Always loved it... stumbled on it while taking back roads to Tannersville... Laughed when I zipped past it, as I was not aware I was near it... popped in for a quick hike... Looks as nice as I remember.

A basic but loveable campground. Grounds are pack in, pack out. The bathrooms are septic tanks. Water spigots work and a network of trails connect. The campsites are close but separated by trees. The ground is made up of a lot of gravel type rocks on top of dirt but beware the typical NY rocks under the first layer of dirt if you putting down pegs. I had no cell phone service or data with TMobile but may vary for others.
