Adirondack Park Advice

Hoping to get some recommendations on a park in the Adirondacks area with hydro. We’ve checked quite a few websites and see there are not a lot available. We have a 25 ft hybrid Roo
Planning on our first trip to the area possibly lake placid area. Thanks in advance for any advice..
  • I assume by "hydro" you mean electric hookups?

    One good resource for finding information about public campgrounds is the campadk campsite photo database (even though it's gotten a bit choked with advertising of late). There are a couple NY state run campgrounds in and around the Adirondacks that have electricity available.
  • Hi there yes electric thanks for responding I will check it out..
  • There is a KOA as well as a privately owned CG at the base of road that leads up to Whiteface Mtn summit. Believe the name of town the CG is in is North Pole NY and name of CG is 100 acre Woods(?). Both CG's are about a 12-18 minute drive to LP.
  • We like Little Wolf Campground in Tupper Lake when we're in that area. It's run by the town and has full hookups. Campground Reviews (formerly RV Park Reviews) lists several other parks in the general Lake Placid area.
  • Stay at the North Pole Resort, Jim, Mary Ellen and family run a nice quiet, clean campground. There is a A&W, soft ice cream and town park with concerts close by. We always stay in the 100 Acres section, no pool, no children just quiet. KOA down the road is very dusty at times.
  • Thank you everyone for your feed back..been off the site for a couple years glad to be back with fellow campers and rv’ers alike for great info and comradery alike helping each other out. We sure do appreciate everyone’s help and guidance..retiring soon so hitting the roads to find adventure and meet as many fellow campers that we can along the way!!

    We came up from Virginia and stayed there. Very nice CG.
  • We booked Northpole after all the positive response thank you everyone for your input and all your experiences that you share here on rv.net. It looks amazing with a variety of things to do in the area ithe end of July!
  • Just want to add another vote for North Pole Resort - 100 Acre Woods side.
