This is a nice state campground with a lot of camping sites. They have a sandy beach on Lake George, with a nice view of the mountains. They seem to have kayak rentals, and there is a boat launch. http://newyorkstateparks.reserveamerica.com/camping/rogers-rock-campground/r/campgroundDetails.do?contractCode=NY&parkId=515 http://www.dec.ny.gov/outdoor/24493.html
This is a town beach on Lake George, off of Tiroga Beach Road. The park has a small sand beach and clear water. Small grass area for picnics, beautiful views. It was raining during our visit, but it is likely to have turquoise water on a sunny day, if it is like other areas of […]
From Main street, take Dock Street and then a right on Beach Road. This park was sort of dingy but had a nice walkway to the lake. This could be a nice beach if cleaned up a little, though we did see something on their website about a clean up effort following damage from Hurricane […]
From Route 22, you’ll see a large sign on right side of road for Bulwagga Park, and you take Bulwagga Drive to the end where the park is. You’ll go past a weird abandoned building, past a fenced municipal building, and stop at the fee building in front of all the RVs. They didn’t charge […]
We happened upon this area, and it was closed when we were there. There is a lifeguard station and it is possible that it just wasn’t open for the season yet. We don’t have a lot of details for this location, and the link to their website is down. It is listed on the town […]
To visit these falls, do not go into the Main Mine Kill State Park area, as it doesn’t seem to connect to the falls area. Instead, if coming from the east, you want to take the second Mine Kill State Park entrance, which is marked with a sign that says “Mine Kill Falls Overlook.” There […]
This entry is for one of two beaches within the same campground. This is a really lovely area, with pretty campsites and very clean facilities. The South Beach entrance is to the right after passing the entrance booth, and the North Beach is to the left. South Beach is larger with a bigger swimming area, […]

Our GPS reading is from the parking lot, which is large and has some information placards about the area. The GPS for the base of the falls is +42 11.471, -74 04.248. This is a very popular spot and you will have trouble parking on nice days, and definitely on weekends. From the parking area […]
The parking area for this location is just a dirt pull off, which is beside a small red building on Platte Clove Road. The parking area does fill up, though there is another one further up the road at Hells Hole Parking area. There is a path that goes to upper falls from the middle […]
