We have not camped here, but have visited for day use. The swimming beach is nice and quiet. They have a great playground that is good for kids of all ages (a smaller one for the preschool crowd and a big one that will challenge older kids). There is a nice little trail that goes along the top of the reservoir. And I highly recommend the waterfalls trail (blue to red markers). I wasn't impressed with the bathrooms in the changing house by the lake, but that's the only negative.

One of the quite and beauty place under the list of NY state park. "Beauty is a manifestation of secret natural laws" especially during Fall Color. Kids really had gr8 fun at beach. We were only 4-5 family in the state park and near by the beach area which gave us feeling like we had private beach booked. During Fall color drive was one of the best drive I had.

Brand new hot shower facilities have been added! Lots of new buildings and renovations to the areas. This is an amazing place to camp, swim, play on the beach, playground, hike, boat or cookout! Definitely call ahead to make sure they are open or to book camping and pavilions. During the week it's a very peaceful place to walk the trails and enjoy nature.

Great state park, a hidden gem. Especially good for families for day use activities. Bathrooms clean - 5 stars! Great activities for kids, like playgrounds, kayaking, swimming. Not heavy on hiking trails, but we enjoyed walking along access road (no vehicles) to other end of the lake. Fair warning - expect no cell service (at least no Verizon)

Awesome hike to the waterfall! The first trail on the right side of the dirt rd entering the park. It's a 30 minutes walk on a nice path, followed by 5 minutes a blue trail on the right side in the woods, then on the left a pretty waterfall. The blue trail goes further along the creek but we walked back after a stop at the waterfall.
