campgrounds near Niagara falls

We'll be there about the same time. I'm looking forward to the responses. I'd prefer to stay on the U.S. side since I'll have a firearm in the FW. But I'm okay with traveling to the Canadian side in the TV for the better view of the falls.

We stayed in the Yogi Bear campground on the Canadian side, which wasn't a bad park. The U.S. side is not very nice. We went over there and the town was very dirty.

When we lived in NY we always stayed at Four Mile Creek State Park. It is maybe 20 minutes north of Niagara Falls but very nice. Large, open sites and right on the lake. It was our favorite SP in NY.

X2 on Four Mile Creek State Park! It's second only to Robert Moses State Park in Massena in my book, but certainly first in the Niagara Falls area. Your park access receipt also gives you free access to the Niagara Falls State Park parking lots.

X3 for four mile creek. It has great views and nice park. It just has electric at your site but water available all over the park and two dump sites in the park. Eddy

Camped at AA Royal Motel & Campground in North Tonawanda in 2009. It's less than 15 mi. from the falls. Maybe 30 sites and $42. No issues...I'd stay again.

We stayed at Riverside on the Canadian side. Small...but cheap. The only time we were there was to sleep as we spent most of our time "Downtown". It is a short drive down the Niagara River. If and when we do go back...we will stay there again.

A few years ago we stayed at the KOA in Niagara on Lundy's Lane on the Canadian side. I thought the campground was fine (kids loved it), and the local bus stops right in front of the campground all day long - just jump on it (very reasonable cost), and it brings you right to the falls.

We went with two other families. For dinner one day, we ate at the Skylon Restaurant (the big tower right next to the falls). They have an all you can eat buffet "family" section and we loved it! The food was great, and we put a dent in their profits that day, lol! The view over looking the falls is fantastic.

If you have kids going, and a toad to drive, go an hour east to Darien Lake . Rides, water park, etc.
There is a big KOA on Grand Island, I never stayed, near Fantasy Island amusement park.
