My family owns land in Delaware county, so naturally we visit up there (from Long Island) often. This summer was the first time we visited Oquaga Creek State Park, and it did NOT disappoint!! Will be visiting every time we’re up there from now on, for sure! The water is beautifully calm, park-goers enjoyed metal detecting, fishing, picnicking, and swimming (dogs included!) ☺️

Would 100% recommend for anyone that loves the outdoors. Family friendly. Grounds keepers are amazing at maintaining the environment. Nice beach with no lifeguards (in my preference I prefer no life guard) because of no restrictions on the beach is nice for beach gear, boogie boards, beach tents etc.

Love this park! Big, grassy sites, many of which are separated by trees to give you some space. Beach area is big and nice. There are plenty of trails for the average hiker. But you must be ready to unplug as they don't have power at the sites and there is no cell reception or wifi. We couldn't even get TV in out area, but that was wonderful! Just enjoy nature and maybe a good book!

This is a campground, but with public access to its lake and disk golf course. I spent the day at the lake. What a beautiful place. They've made a beach along one side of the lake. Perfect for taking the sun, swimming, floating on the calm water, or paddle boarding. There is even a boat launch you can drive down to for small boats.
