About
About 13 miles south of Albany along the Hudson River, this park spans roughly 1,000 acres with seven miles of Hudson River and Schodack Creek shoreline. The campground has 66 sites, with sites 1-43 offering 50-amp electric service and the rest non-electric, plus two pavilions and four tent shelters as additional options. Showers, restrooms, and a dump station serve the Creekside and Riverside loops. Maximum two pets per site, leashed to 6 feet, with current rabies proof required.
Fees
Standard sites run about $17/night plus a $7.25 reservation fee; out-of-state visitors add $5/night. Sites 1-43 include 50-amp electric service, which adds roughly $9/night to the base rate; sites 44 and up are non-electric. Confirm current pricing before booking.
