The best lakeside camping near Old Forge

·

In the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, the small hamlet of Old Forge serves as a hub for tons of outdoor recreation and lake camping. Nearby Moose River features a series of dams that create the Fulton Chain of Lakes—eight lakes popular for pontoon boating, canoeing, kayaking, and fishing for northern pike, Atlantic salmon, and tiger muskie. Or, explore Blue Ridge Wilderness Area for hiking, hunting, and trapping. Then retire to a paddle-to or boat-in campsite right on Indian Lake or Lake Kora. Generally mild winters lead to lake-effect snow, creating perfect conditions for snowmobiling or skiing down McCauley Mountain. Nearby lakeside RV resorts offer access to frozen Grey Lake snowmobiling as well as full hookups and wifi. Glampers may prefer private cabin rentals with full and queen-sized beds just minutes from the water as well. Most areas around Old Forge also allow for primitive lakeside tent camping—as long as campers pitch their tents certain distances from roads, trails, and waterways.
