I grew up at this campground and it still feels like home! Amazing place! Clean facilities and the staff is incredible. Highly recommend

We chose this campground because of its proximity to Corning, NY. Since we were going to be staying for a week, we also liked having a full hookup site. The location is extremely convenient to Corning, and also reasonably convenient to the Watkins Glen and the heart of the Finger Lakes region of New York. If your focus is doing things in Corning, this is probably the best choice in the area compared to the other nearby campgrounds. Site 11C. Back-in FHU 40/30/20, water with low pressure, 4" threaded sewer with issues (see below), cable TV with lots of snow-free channels. Dirt / river rock pad. Deeply wooded. On the dining room side of the coach, there is nothing but woods. Same for behind the coach. On the kitchen side, you can see two other campsites, but there is room for the awning and then some. Picnic table, fire ring. The campground has two main sections. The one we were in has widely spaced sites set in a heavily wooded area. The road leading to these sites is a mixture of dirt and rocks and is pretty rough, though the coach was able to navigate them. There are only three sites in this part with sewer: 11A, 11B and 11C. Most of the other sites appear to be long-term sites. Some of them have trailers that are quite rough looking, though everyone we passed seemed nice. The other section is on the other side of the railroad tracks - literally. They appear to be all pull-through FHU, some 50-amp, some 30-amp. They have standard commercial campground configuration and spacing. Tire noise from NY-414 can be heard outside the RV, but not inside. The train can easily be heard inside the RV though it only ran a few times during our stay. I would imagine it would be much more of an issue on the pull-through sites. Office staff is very nice and responsive to issues. As far as the sewer is concerned, I was grateful we had a clear threaded elbow connector between the hose and the 4" threaded sewer connection because the sewer backed up. After waiting for 5-10 minutes, the sewer line drained to the point where there was no longer sewage in the elbow. Over the course of the next hour or so, I was able to full dump, a little at a time. I mentioned this to the office and they offered to send their honey wagon, but I decided to just use the dump site when we left. Fairly large, reasonably well-stocked camp store with lots of camping supplies, some fishing supplies, and some grocery items. Verizon - goes between 1 bar and SOS. No data. AT&T data - 49.65 Mbps down, 6.16 Mbps up. Campground does have WiFi but it did not show up on either of our phones in the coach. There was live music Friday night that could be easily heard inside the coach. It wasn't so loud that it was a major issue but for some I guess it could be. Three washing machines, three dryers. $2.00 per load. The laundry room had an unpleasant odor the first time we went, but it was okay on subsequent visits.

Stayed 1 week in the meadow section of the park. Hillside sites seem to be mostly full-time guests. Beautiful views and fairly quiet... until the train! We love trains and luckily they don't pass very often. However, when they do, you not only hear it, you feel it. Pretty creek runs thru the middle of the park. Laundry machines could use a good cleaning. Guests seem to wash dog beds and blankets. I based this on the fact that our clothes were covered in hair after we washed them. Luckily, the dryer got most of it off. Staff are friendly and helpful. We would stay here again.

Had my daughter's college graduation party here. Everything was perfect. They even went out of their way to provide us with tables and chairs. Very thankful to the owner and employees.

Stayed here for the first day of our motorcycle trip across America while we came to corning to visit the glass museum! Cute campground, we showed up as the grounds were just opening so I can't comment much on summer activities. The cabin was cute! And cherie was a peach to deal with😊
