All I did was call asking about availability and the lady was rude. First she asked what kind of dogs I had then she said “as long as they’re quiet” in a condescending voice, however I moved past it (as if you can make a dog not make a single peep”. Then she said “you can’t have any visitors the max is 5” I said “ yeah we shouldn’t” and she again in a rude condescending tone said “you won’t and you shouldn’t are two different things” which led to me just hanging up. I didn’t even ask about visitors and she was at my throat at my verbiage.

Jim, Joanne and dog Acres were so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. The grounds are clean, beautiful and well maintained. I had an amazing time during week stay, can’t wait to go back!

Friendly people and very well kept up. It's right on the St Lawrence river and a short drive to downtown Clayton.

Twice at this place, the first time it was mostly empty, the second time it was busy. Campground is geared mostly toward annual renters with permanent and semi permanent camps near the edge of the steep hill and beyond. Most of the wooded area consists of seasonal renters as well, sporting assorted RVs. There are rules in place pertaining to renters, which is fine with me. Your view of the river is a ways back from the embankment, but you are allowed to hike down to the dock. Sites are quite close together, in fact, another individual was complaining about having the adjacent camp's sewer pipe next to his patio area. Admittedly, if you are not in an end spot you will be cramped. Public bath is kept clean, owner does this once a day. Trash dumpster is at the main road exit to the park. Jim, the owner, rides one of his golf carts around the park pretty much nonstop. Just be aware that uncharges for electric service are in place. 30 amp service is standard with a full hookup, however, if you use one AC unit it's an up charge, two AC units another up charge. 50 amp service is $9 per day more. Our first visit found the fireplace to be full of cat box contents and a few items of trash. We never used it, but did police the site up a bit. On our second, most recent visit, the fireplace was mostly empty but the cat box contents were at the bottom of the power pole next to us. I mentioned it loudly enough so whomever it belonged to must have picked it up, as it vanished. If you have a pet, you must take care that it's not on the loose and endangering others or destroying property (per the rules). This policy, I totally agree with. On the other hand, the owner allows his large dog to run loose, raising havoc where it sees fit. Certainly doing his business wherever he pleases and running into open doors and camper's vehicles. It aggressively came after our four month old dog, which is always on a leash, and in the process of being trained. Fortunately, I was the person with her, and was able to extricate her before she was injured. During this event, the owner was chatting with another individual watching it occur. Not a word from him. From what other campers iterated to me after the fact, this behavior is not uncommon. All campers with dogs were extremely responsible, I must say. The cats, maybe not so much. In summation, we don't intend to return, and in fact, left a day early (paid in full) due to the stress of having to deal with a small common "green" area for people and pets, with uncertainty as to the possibility of another aggressive visit by the owner's dog. Just to reiterate, the campers were very considerate, as they are in almost every place we've visited..
