Camping in the Adirondacks

There are so many joys in camping. The star-filled sky! The roaring fire! The roasted marshmallows! And the best part is, camping is a great way to extend a vacation budget and make the one-of-a-kind family memories that can only be made camping on a lake in the Adirondacks.

Island camping

Would you like your own island that can only be reached by boat? We can do that! Look for Saranac Lake Islands campsites on Lower and Middle Saranac for a camping trip unlike any other. 

Would you like a site that also has showers, canoe rentals, and children’s activities? We can do that too! Visit the state-operated campgrounds which include nearby Fish Creek, Rollins Pond, Buck Pond, and Meadowbrook.

State and private campgrounds

Centering your adventure in the great outdoors doesn't have to be a challenge, and is a lot closer than you think! State campgrounds and sites are quite literally all over the Adirondacks, and a few get to call Saranac Lake home. These grounds are affordable, can accommodate any camper from RVs to tents, and offer a scenic backdrop to your next stay. 

Private campgrounds are also plentiful around the region, with specialized amenities, lake access, and at some locations, a restaurant right on the property.
