Yes. Whirlpool state park is free with free parking, informational pavilion with bathroom a playground and access to the gorge trail system.
In case Google maps is not up to date, the closest entrance is from the devil's hole state park. With the deconstruction of the Robert Moses/Niagara scenic parkway it has now become a one way street towards Niagara falls

Not possible at all. Due to strong water current and whirlpools. Many people have tried swimming there and died. DO NOT ENTER WATERS.

There are wonderful, shaded picnic tables and a terrific playground and restrooms. If you bring your own grill you can grill here.

The area above the stairs is nothing like a trailhead and past the stairs is a rather skinny trail. Not sure what the official rules are, but sleeping in the parking lot would be your only option and I wouldnt call that camping, hah
