CAMPING
Camping the last weekend in April is a little iffy here. You will have to call around the middle of April to see if these campgrounds will be open. Most say they often are open that weekend. Rates are generally in the $18-20 range for a hook-up campsite.
Riverside Campground, Brasher Falls, NY 315-389-4771
Hillside Motel and Campground, Smith Drive, Massena, NY 315-769-5403
Lakeside General Store, Cranberry Lake, NY 315-848-2501 (This campground is in the Adirondack Park on a large lake, but is about an hour from the SUNY Canton campus. Instead of turning on Rt. 56 to come north, continue on Rt. 3 another 5 miles or so into the village of Cranberry Lake.)
There will be limited vehicle camping in Parking Lot 1 on the SUNY Canton campus. Please inquire at 315-379-9466.
