Smryna Lake Campsite
Epic private spot, gem of a lake!
This site is a gem!
I’ll break down the site by amazing/good/just facts/bad
Amazing:
- The water is beautiful and clear and accessible to paddle and enjoy on the shadier side of the lake
- The fishing is so fun! Probably no monster fish, but tons of 1 to 2 lbs bass will keep your rod bent all day (catch and release)
Good:
- The site has great hookups with everything working as expected
- The site is very private which was nice
- There were a couple of kayaks down by the water to use and the couple of neighbors wave and smile when you paddle by
- The fire pit, chairs, and overall space were all very nice
Just facts:
- It’s a bit of a walk down to the water. We used walkie-talkies to communicate with the kids who were down there. It’s a hill, but it’s manageable. Probably 100 yards that’s wooded, but should remind you of any hilly trail you’d find in the Adirondacks.
- Our 34’ camper took some talent to park on level pad
- The whole area at camp is covered with beautiful stone which made things nice and clean, but they were a little rough on feet and paws without shoes.
- As far as I could tell, there was nothing to do in the area (15 minute drive). This was fine for me because the lake is so nice, but the kids would have liked a hike, ice cream, or other entertainment to break things up.
- Cell phone connectivity was very spotty on both Verizon and T-Mobile. I liked this, but others not so much. Download maps before you go.
Bad:
- Nothing. Camp here :)

We enjoyed our time floating on the lake and spending time around the campfire at this site.
The site is very clean and well maintained. It is very quiet and private. Our only issue was finding the place. The gps coordinates take you to the lot BUT we saw a large cabin and a car so we assumed we were at the wrong place. After driving around for awhile, meeting some neighbors and texting with Roberto we got it all figured out. Having the lot number at the start would have saved us an hour and some frustration. However we still had fun!
