Lakeside Campground

28 RV Sites

Lakeside Campground in Windsor, New York, offers 23 full-hookup RV sites on a lake in the Southern Tier, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Small back-in, standard back-in, and pull-through categories join a beach, boat docks, and kayak rentals. Twenty-three sites run in small 30-amp back-in, 30/50-amp back-in, and 30/50-amp pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. The small back-in category is a useful option for compact trailers that would otherwise pay for space they do not need. Trailer rentals serve guests without a rig. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. The lake carries the recreation. A beach gives swimming access, boat docks and kayak rentals put guests on the water, and fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boats all run from the shoreline. An outdoor pool, recreation center, game room, billiards, basketball, a playground, and a pavilion fill the grounds, with planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Windsor sits in Broome County in the upper Susquehanna valley along the Pennsylvania border, where the rolling hills and clear glacial lakes of the Catskill foothills provide the backdrop. The campground draws families from the Binghamton area and weekend visitors from the New York metro corridor. Directions from I-86/Route 17: take exit 79 (Windsor) and proceed south onto Route 79 — contrary to many GPS directions, do not turn right onto Piper Hill Road after leaving town.

Boating and fishing run nearby, and a state park is close. Pets are welcome. The PA Wilds is a 12,000-square-mile expanse of north-central wilderness where elk graze open meadows at dusk, the Pine Creek Gorge drops 1,000 feet through what is sometimes called Pennsylvania's Grand Canyon, and the night sky is dark enough to have earned one of the most significant dark sky designations in the eastern United States. Cherry Springs State Park is the destination for that. Summer and fall foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Wake in the Woods Aquapark & Campground

Wake in the Woods Aquapark & Campground in Lake Ariel, Pennsylvania, offers camping and cabin rentals on a private seven-acre lake with an inflatable aqua park on the water, behind a gated entrance in the Pocono Mountains. Boat docks, boat rentals, a bar, and food trucks serve families and group events on historic Lake Genero. Tent sites and cabin rentals make up the accommodations, with corporate retreat and group event infrastructure on site. A general store, boutique shop, propane fills and exchange, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side, with WiFi throughout and a gated entrance controlling access. The inflatable aqua park is the signature. These are large floating structures with water slides, obstacles, and climbing features, designed to give swimmers a safe, genuinely demanding play area on open water — considerably more engaging than a pool, and the reason most families book. Boat docks, boat rentals, swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and boating fill out the water recreation, with sports courts, basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, a playground, pavilion, and community fire pit on land. A bar and visiting food trucks handle evenings, and the property also serves as a wedding venue. Stargazing and birding are strong across the forested acreage. Pets are welcome. Lake Ariel sits in Wayne County in the northeastern Pennsylvania lake district, where private lakes, state forest land, and ridge-and-valley terrain built the Pocono resort region's identity for Philadelphians from the nineteenth century onward. Summer is decisively the season for the aqua park. Reserve well ahead.

A creek, pond, and lake on the property support fishing, and biking and swimming run from camp. Food trucks visit and planned activities run through the season. Pets are welcome.

The season runs spring through fall. Summer families and October foliage at Letchworth drive the heaviest demand — reserve ahead for fall color weekends, when the gorge draws visitors from across the Northeast.
