Came across this beautiful campsite by chance on our way further into the Adirondacks. Were lucky enough to be given site 99 in Loop E which was the most wonderful site we have ever camped in. Lovely lakeside setting in a clearing in the trees. Plenty of space and not close to others. Good hot showers nearby. Close to the... more

This campground was very beautiful and relaxing to stay at. It has plenty of well maintained and modern bathrooms all over the grounds, as well as hot showers. A very nice playground our kids enjoyed and a lovely swimming erea and hiking trails. I plan on returning every year with my family. It is only 5 minutes from Old Forge,... more

We stayed at Nick's Lake Campground for the first time this past June/July. The campground is very nicely situated on the lake, far away from the busy downtown, therefore making it a very quiet place to stay. The bathrooms are centrally located on each loop and very clean. The staff was very helpful when asked any questions. There is an... more

The staff bent over backwards to accommodate our late attempts to find a camping spot. We thoroughly enjoyed our week there and will get back there every year in our RV. We don't mind having no hookups when the new shower facilities are superb! more

I grew up spending every summer and some winters in Thendara, NY, just outside of Old Forge. I take my 4 children camping every summer now in Old Forge and Nick's Lake is our campground of choice. It is spacious, beautiful, and serene. The property is well taken care of, the staff is polite and cheerful, and we wouldn't camp... more

This campground is the true campers dream! The sites are not too close together, there is quite time after 9 or 10. There are no motor boats allowed on the lake to insure a peaceful stay. I myself prefer loop E That is the only loop my family will stay on. They say becuase they have the best bathrooms. Also... more

Nicks Lake is a great camping experience for the nature lover. Great sites although there is no electric hookup. It's a great place to get back to basics and enjoy fishing and wildlife. No motorized boats lend to a quiet serene camping trip. Cleanliness of showers and bathrooms is excellent. more

The camp sites and accomadations were very nice. They have a nice playground and park for the kids to enjoy. We didn't have time to fish, but we had a ball at the water park and strolled downtown and enjoyed their shops. I'm sure you'll have a great time. more
