Marathon is popular during peak season. Reserve 2-4 weeks in advance for weekends and holidays.
Most parks have check-in after 1:00 PM and check-out by 11:00 AM. Call ahead if you'll arrive late.
New York weather can change quickly. Pack layers and check the forecast for Marathon.
Don't miss local attractions near Marathon. Ask the camp host for hidden gems and trails.

Great for big groups! Large area to pitch many tents. Huge fire pit for nice fire on theose cold nights. Huge double sized charcoal grill. We stayed on site #2. It's quite a walk from the street. There is no access by car up to the actual site. You have to walk your gear up about 500 feet. There is no running water at the site however there is a functional spigot down by the parking lot.

We enjoyed our time as a group of about 25 people. I would recommend this place for a group visit.

Would be a lot nicer if you could still bring cars up. Now it's a hassle especially when you have a lot of people. Nice sights though.

Went on a Sunday night. Had the whole place to myself. Didn't need a reservation.
