About
Set high in the Catskills near Haines Falls, this popular campground sits beside North-South Lake with sweeping mountain views, swimming beaches, and access to the historic Catskill Escarpment trail network. Over 200 individual campsites are spread across several loops, plus a group camping area. Restrooms with hot showers and a trailer dump station are on site. Dogs are welcome on a 6-foot leash with proof of rabies vaccination.
Fees
Standard sites run about $17/night plus a $7.25 reservation fee ($1.25 for walk-ins); out-of-state visitors pay an additional $5/night. These sites are non-electric, so no hookup surcharge applies. Confirm current pricing before booking.
