Tucked away on the northernmost edge of Columbia County and just a few miles south of Albany, NY, Kinderhook Lake is a popular getaway spot among the motorhome camping enthusiasts in New York State. The lake owes its name to Henry Hudson who while traversing the region in the early 17th century came upon a group of Mohican Indian children playing along the lakeshore. This prompted him to name the lake ‘Kinderhoeck’ which means ‘children playing.' Hundreds of years later, the lake is now a serene fishing hotspot hidden away from the hassle and bustle of big city life. To get the most out of your vacation, search for an RV in Columbia County, and make lifelong memories camping with an RV at Kinderhook Lake.
