What a nice campground and cabin! I’m staying in a «Deluxe Cabin» that is very spacious, queen bed and bunk beds that would comfortably accommodate 2 adults and two kids. Big bathroom with a large shower. There is a small fridge, a microwave, flat screen TV and plenty of room in the cabin. There is a nice deck with table, chairs, barbecue and seating. The main lodge has a very nice well stocked store and the breakfast this morning really hit the spot. All of the folks working here are super nice and helpful.

Not the ideal place for my husband and me (it seemed a little too commercial), but probably a great selection for families. The staff was all friendly, although our check-​in experience left something to be desired. The location was good though and allowed us to get to Lake Placid and hiking very easily.

We had a very bad customer service experience. We arrived around noon and the campground was relatively empty. The woman who helped us told us that check-​in was 3 p.m. regardless of whether space was available or not. She tried to pressure us to make a donation if we wanted to check in before 3 p.m. It seems that they would be much more welcoming especially with an empty campground.

Super friendly staff. Great accommodations. Camp store is well stocked and the prices are reasonable. Very clean and organized. Kids love the mini golf, snack bar and giant chess board. Great hiking and biking close by. Definitely a do-​over! Family friendly with a capital ‘F’!

My family and I have been camping at this particular KOA for the past several years. It is outstanding. The sites are private (though they have the requisite RV sites on top of each other as well if this is your preference) with nice personal details you seldom find in big campgrounds. I like the seclusion and lack of paving. It is very close to the high peaks area which is important to us as we come once a year to climb and hike. Our dog loves this park (they actually cater to dogs, how unique!) The bathrooms are spotless with plenty of hot water and the kitchenette area is a nice touch for cleaning dishes and the occasional need for a range. We’ve been to other campgrounds in the Lake Placid area but have been very disappointed. Not here. It’s also a short walk to the Ausable River gorge and a short walk to the Hungry Trout restaurant.

I love this KOA. The location is prime, and the staff is super friendly. There are two cabins, and a few lean-to’s right on the Ausable River, check out the map. These sites are very private for being part of a KOA. Nice river walk, playgrounds and dog walk. As others have said, the bathrooms aren’t the best, but there are plenty of them and they are cleaned often. Not much you can do about muddy feet going in and out all day.

I stayed here while traveling the great state of NY. The people who work the desk are very nice. Since it wasn’t that busy when I rolled through, she only charged me for a tent site when I stayed in a nicer site. It’s actually a nice KOA, but it’s a bit overrun with trees and the roads aren’t paved. So if you’re heading to the bathrooms, you don’t want to be going there with your flip flops. It’s NY and it ain’t crusty road ways like So. Cali. The bathrooms were aight. They weren’t the most impressive in comparison to other KOAs, but they were satisfactory. Anywho, Lake Placid is a beautiful little town. I’d roll through here if you were lurkin’ the Adirondack Mountains.
