Amy Canough
Large full hookup RV lots, clean pool, laundry and restrooms. Most importantly, the friendly and accommodating owner. This woman can make miracles happen when a camper has a very last minute request. Highly recommend staying here!

Nice campground but facilities are pretty run down. Stayed there last summer and the pool was very run down and the pool fence was being reinforced by pool noodles. Owner and her son are not friendly, the older women chased my car on foot as I was doing about 15 miles an hour. The previous year we stayed here we were told very harshly not to hang up a clothes line for our towels. Wont be returning.

Massena International Kampground is a first rate campground. Our hostess Brenda always goes the extra miles to satisfy her guests. Sites are large, grassy and well maintained. You can chose from full sun to fully shaded sites. A better stay than many « resort » campgrounds and priced way better. Located near all kinds of local activities and attractions. We have been visiting the MIK several times a year for over fifteen years.

We had an enjoyable stay at this campground while attending a bass fishing tournament. Brenda was friendly and accommodating from the very beginning making the reservation, to check-in to check-out. Clean restrooms and well maintained property overall. This was our first visit and we look forward to returning next year. Thank you!
