Great place to stay. The basic cabins are very basic but arr clean amd warm even in the -20° we experienced this weekend. My only gripe was the "pads" they use as mattresses def leave younwith something to desire but other than that great place to stay and will def stay again.

We were there on what turned out to be a major Halloween weekend event in September. We had no idea that it was going to be occurring.

We were there on what turned out to be a major Halloween weekend event in September. We had no idea that it was going to be occurring. Lots of loud music from the pavilion until about 10 o’clock at night. Extremely crowded. I think every site was full. By Sunday morning, the Campground had cleared out quite a bit, and the restrooms were locked due to plumbing issues. There were other restrooms available, but further away. I prefer a more quiet and nature based camping experience, and if going in the fall again, would shoot for a weekday instead of the weekend, because there’s like five or six weeks of Halloween themed weekends. We loved the time there after the weekend! We had 30 amp service for our camper, but were told that we shouldn’t use our AC or electric heaters because they couldn’t support all the electric usage throughout the campground. That is crazy. Why do we have 30 amp then? We think after the weekend and most of the Campground cleared out it probably wouldn’t be a problem.

This place is by the water Safari in Old Forge. Went there for Snodeo 2025/2026. Had a good time. There was plenty of snow. Parking was a little iffy, due to trailer for snowmobile, but it got worked out well. Can ride snowmobile out of compound to Old Forge Trails. People seemed ok. Camp 2 was warm, clean for the most part. Shower was acceptable. Overall, a good experience. Sorry- no ph... This place is by the water Safari in Old Forge. Went there for Snodeo 2025/2026.

I called within their cancellation window to cancel the booking as a change of mind. The degenerate lady told me since you never received the cofiemarion email there’s no need to cancel, I said whatever and let it be now their charging me for the booking & I didn’t even make it. I disgusted with the bank and they rejected it. I’m not done! I’m going straight to small claims court and sueing for even more. All the proof is there! The call records on your system on the day I called & asked to cancel. I’ll see you in court you bunch of filthy scammers. Will be sending an intent to sue letter.

Our stay was for 5 nights in a cottage. Our group rents 4 cottages Not exactly cheap so with that you'd expect a clean quarters. The refrigerator, toilet, shower, and under beds (floor) visibly dirty. When I grabbed the toilet brush to clean the toilet myself there was feces in the brush holder. There was a paper bowl of captain crunch in the cabinet. Absolutely disgusting. Never had an issue like this in the past. We've decided to find other arrangements for our future trips. Unfortunately I did not take pics of everything.

Camped here the last two years, being next to the river, listening to the flowing water just below you offers a tranquil nights sleep

Really not bad campgrounds. These are clustered but have some privacy here, pit toilets are also clustered and not per spot. Otherwise nice spot with the Cedar River Flow right there. Great for kayakers/fishing. Nice creek nearby, shaky road in spots but not too bad. If you want more privacy or need a pit toilet, keep going into the Moose River Plains.

I have gone camping here many times, and I have always enjoyed it no matter the weather. this place is fantastic for anyone who wishes to experience the Adirondacks and for anyone who loves to go kayaking/canoeing. it is a great place for hiking and fishing, so long as you know the times of the year the fish are most active.

Stayed at site number 5, I think. It was by the water in the woods just a little bit. Picnic table, fire ring and several outhouses nearby. Beautiful surroundings. There is a small landing to launch kayaks or canoes. A dam with some additional sites on the other side. Town is about 20-30 minutes away. Several trails nearby. Would recommend. Also would recommend traveling further in if you... Stayed at site number 5, I think. It was by the water in the woods just a little bit. Picnic table, fire ring and several outhouses nearby.
