Despite the pouring rain, we took our 3 year old on the falls trail hike. The waterfalls were amzing. Unfortunately, we were not able to swim in the lake or rent boats as planned but i would defintely go back! more

My family(at 3 different sites) has camped here for 5 years and usually have a wonderful time. We tell all our friends about how well kept the campground is and how nice everyone is. But this year was not so great. We were sitting around the campfire around 9:30 talking and laughing about our hiking day, when a ranger came... more

The Falls Trail is absolutely delightful! Kids and adults alike will love it. You see 18 small waterfalls in about 3 miles; 21 in less than 5 miles. With so many breaks for photos, you will hardly notice you're hiking. The trail is well maintained and well-traveled. But it can be crowded on nice weekends. We also hiked the Grand... more

Ricketts Glen State Park is a wonderful place for nature lovers who just hapen to enjoy hiking and photography. Ricketts Glen is one of our favorite state parks to visit. If you have the time, try renting one of the modern cabins for a weekend. more

This is a very clean, very beautiful park. We hiked many of the trails, and we found them to be well marked and wide. The paths were often covered with a fine gravel. The falls were also marked by their names. The bridges and steps were made of wood and stone, blending into the environment beautifully. We will be back.... more

We visited Ricketts Glen for the first time during the last weekend of July for a getaway from New Jersey. The lake was beautiful and the park was extremely well kept. The park is big and many of the hikes are challenging. We have young kids and so stayed on the easier trails. The kids loved swimming in the lake... more

Camp sites- We are experienced campers who only stay at state parks. This is by far the best camp ground we've been to. The map doesn't do this one justice. The sites, closest to the lake were small and not very private, but ours, in the #70's was fabuloous! We called ahead of time and the ranger gave us a... more

Ricketts Glen will always be one of my all-time favorites. I used to get up at the crack of dawn while my family was asleep and run down to the intersection of 118 and back. It's one heck of a 10 mile run. Try not to walk on the climb back up. For a balloon tire/ mountain bike ride, make... more

Stayed July 2006 for two nights in the campground. We are tent campers but all sites are for either RV or tent. We were in #14 and despite being next to restrooms, at this campground, this was not a problem at all. Had plenty of trees to give privacy from the facilities and a nice rock area behind the pad... more
