Review of North South Lake in Haines Falls, NY:
I took my son on his first camping trip to North South Lake in Haines Falls, NY. All I can say is that it was a great experience. He loved it, I loved it, as did the 8 other people we went with. We had a great time building a camp fire, setting up our tent, going on a great little hike to Kaaterskill Falls, a nearby water fall. As a group we rented a canoe, kayak, and row boat, so that each child could get a ride in 3 different boats- they loved it. The camp is set up so you drive right up to your camp site, which is a major plus for families. I went camping as a child, but I am by no means an "out doorsy guy" but they NYS DEC has set up a great camp. The facilities were clean and convenient. Each camp area has showers and bathrooms that were very well kept. Thanks and great job to the workers and visitors that keep it in such great shape. My son wants to go back to this campground ASAP, but I think we may try a NY/NJ camp with cabins next!
