camping fingerlakes region

Watkins Glen, Hills Creek (smaller).

A VERY interesting activity is a tour of the Bully Hill Winery ("Love My Goat" fame). They take you through everything from the vineyard to the equipment used, etc.

A wine tasting at the end if you like and souvenir shop.

We had kids and they really enjoyed it, too.

Not to mention it is on top of the mountain, overlooking the fingerlakes. The view alone is worth the trip.

Make sure to call and check if the pool is open. A lot of state parks pools have not opened yet.

crackher have you ever been to Letchworth this place is beautiful they call it the Grand Canyon of the east https://www.google.ca/search?q=letchworth+state+park&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=EUq3Uev3AdX84AOA24DYDQ&ved=0CE0QsAQ&biw=1046&bih=529

Watkins looks spectacular....
any suggestions on which loop or particular sites that are better or worse? also is there anyyhing else i should know prior to booking?

Letchworth State park huge swimming pool and not to far from Darien Lake.

Junius Ponds Cabins and Camping is a nice CG and has all your must haves.....I believe $30/$32 a nite, right off the Thruway between exits 41 and 42.....Watkins is also very nice and has all your must haves but for twice the money....good luck on your first trip and enjoy the Fingerlakes Region.

Watkins Glen State Park. This is my favorite and its a nice town.
