About
Eighth Lake Campground sits in the Fulton Chain of Lakes in the central Adirondacks, about six miles from Inlet, with 122 campsites positioned near the shorelines of both Seventh and Eighth Lakes. None of the sites have electric hookups. The campground has flush toilets, hot showers, and a trailer dump station. Pets are allowed with proof of current rabies vaccination.
Fees
Sites are non-electric, so expect the standard rate of about $17/night plus a $7.25 reservation fee, with a $5/night surcharge for non-New York residents. Confirm current rates when booking.
