About
Long Island is one of three island groups making up the Lake George Islands camping area, reachable only by boat from Bolton Landing. Each of the 86 sites includes its own boat dock, fireplace, picnic table, and toilet facility, with a shared shower building. Sites allow up to 6 people, 2 tents, and 1 boat. Pets are strictly prohibited on all Lake George Islands campsites.
Fees
Primitive boat-access sites are about $14/night base plus a $7.25 reservation fee, with a waterfront surcharge likely applying given the lakefront dock at every site. Out-of-state campers pay an additional $5/night. Confirm exact rates when booking.
