Very quiet and peaceful campground. Highly recommend if looking for a place to stop. Right off of Interstate 81 in Marathon, NY.
Larry Olevnik
Great hidden gem! Considering this place for our new regular spot. Lot’s of campers but still quiet and peaceful. They do a good job here.

Owners were very accommodating and super friendly! Even had firewood waiting for us when we checked in late at night so my son could make s’mores. Very quiet, clean, and the town is beautiful and quaint.

Great quiet campground in the country. We were hiking on the Finger Lakes Trail and stayed there two nights. Very close to trailheads. Owners were wonderful.

Traveled all over the country and this was the best campground bar none. The owners are fantastic people. The campground was beautifully maintained. The scenery is fantastic. I traveled around the country with my family tournament bass fishing last year and fished some of the best bodies of water around, and their stocked pond was up in the top ten fishing we experienced. If you have travel plans to visit the area and are looking for a great campground, look no further, this is the spot! If I could give 10 stars I’d give 12!
