RV Rental Northampton Beach Campground, NY

When you rent a camper near Great Sacandaga Lake, there'll be numerous activities for you to enjoy, starting with boating on the lake and fishing. Rowboats, motorboats, and canoes and kayaks are allowed on the water, and there is a launch for your use; you can rent canoes and rowboats if you don't have your own. The lake is stocked with a variety of bass, northern pike, and walleye, to name a few, and the lake is long, wide, and deep, so you can take your time casting in different locations.

There are many miles of trails nearby providing you with an opportunity to hike; one of the trails runs from Northville to Lake Placid and is more than 100 miles long, but you can walk sections of it if you're looking for a more casual hike. There are beaches where you can swim not far from the campground (the campground staff can give you specific information), and there is a mini-golf course and a full-size golf course just minutes away.

If you'd like to experience something more primitive and wild during your Broadalbin RV camping trip, head to Shaker Mountain Wild Forest, an outdoor recreational area that's open to the public year-round.

There are almost a dozen trails for you to choose from, ranging in length from one to several miles; one of them, Kane Mountain East Trail, leads to the peak of Kane Mountain, where a fire tower provides breathtaking views of the area below.
