Forest Lake Campground

The Great Outdoors

You can start the adventure by taking your RV rental to Oquaga Creek State Park, a popular retreat for the city dwellers of New York and New Jersey. You can explore the woodland using the ten-mile network of hiking and mountain biking trails. Alternatively, you can go for a gentler cycle ride off-trail. Alongside Oquaga Creek, guests can make use of a volleyball net and basketball court. In the winter season, Oquaga Creek State Park is a great starting point for cross-country skiing and snowmobiling.Next, you can make a visit to Chenango Valley State Park; it’s less than an hour's drive away when you rent a camper near Forest Lake Campground. During the winter season, this state park becomes a winter paradise, where visitors can ice skate on frozen lakes, ski, or sled. When the snow thaws, wildflowers speckle the forest floor, and wildlife enthusiasts wait patiently to spot species of birds in the forest and lakeside wetlands. From May to November, Chenango Valley State Park is ideal for hiking and biking, while the middle of summer is the best time to rent a kayak or swim in the lakes. You can even bring your lunch to the picnicking areas and dine in the fresh air.If you’re ready for a road trip in the Windsor motorhome rental, you can head 90 minutes' drive northwest to Taughannock Falls State Park. Here you can explore hiking trails that range from moderate to challenging or discover the park by bike. There are both paved routes and off-road biking trails that traverse the park. Taughannock Falls State Park is known for its dramatic falls, gorges, and lakeside views, and it’s a good spot for birding and observing plant types too. The sandy shores of Cayuga Lake also make a scenic spot for swimming, sunbathing, and picnicking.
