We've been coming here for over 10 years. Campsites are a good size and flat. Also the cottages and cabins are clean and some have nice views of the lake. Nice little beach for swimming and fishing. Absolutely the CLEANEST bathrooms at any campground we've been to. Cleaned often and showers are very clean too. Good size store, laundry room,... More

We have been to Old Forge Campground every weekend last summer and cant wait to return again this year.. One of the main reasons we go is to see the bears and other wildlife that is present there.. We normally tent but will also get cabins or cottages.( mostly tent in summer)... we have NEVER had issues with any bears... More

We chose a cottage and were pleased with the convinience. The day we arrived there was an unexpected snow storm. We have front wheel drive on... More

Thank you so much for your positive review! We appreciate it when our guests take the time to comment on our services. With the amount of snowfall this year, we have had some minor issus with 4 wheel drive vehicles. If the reservation is taken over the phone, we are able to ask about 4 wheel drive and snowmobile trailers.... More

We stayed in a cottage which were very cute and overlook the lake. The only problem I had were the mattresses were so thin I felt like I was just sleeping on the wooden slats of the bunkbeds. Next time I would bring a blowup mattress and use that on top of it!

The most important tip: Follow the rules regarding bears!! We camped here on Labor Day weekend--it was very busy but the campground is so large that the people are spread out well. In actuality, with all the bear activity, you're better off having more people around! Our last night was Labor Day itself -- and with the campground pretty much... More

2012 was our first time visiting Old Forge and we weren't sure what to expect. Some of the reviews had us worried about bears and small campsites.. We couldn't have been more pleased. We don't have a lot of camping gear so we opted to stay in a cabin. Everything was perfect.. The accommodations, the beach, canoeing, fishing, games like... More
