My experience at Roger's Rock was amazing. It was a holiday weekend and you could tell the office was overwhelmed but everything went very efficiently. They gave us our campground and we were on our way. When we got to the lot, it was much smaller than it looked on the website which was unfortunate because we were 6 people. We went back to the office and while they were fully booked, we ended up getting switched to a lot 3x the size as our original. We were SO happy with this. The grounds were kept so nicely, the bathrooms were incredibly clean, and there was a firewood/ice truck making rounds to keep the fire and party going smoothly. The lake view is absolutely gorgeous and the beach is kept very nicely. Overall great experience! read more

Absolute worst campground we have ever been to (and we do a TON of camping in state parks both in NY and out of state and private campgrounds as well). When we arrived our site was covered in trash and the picnic table was in the site next to ours with old propane tanks sitting on them. Beer bottle caps and cigarette ends were EVERYWHERE on our site, crushed cans and bottles scattered around, tons of garbage throughout the site (plastic spoons, cardboard pieces, plastic wrappers, a huge metal pipe, etc.) We spent the first half hour there cleaning up all the trash on our site and we didn't even get it all. All of the sites next to us had just as much trash in them as well and were never cleaned up the duration of our stay either. When walking around we noticed tons of other sites with garbage left in them too. I don't think any of the sites are checked after checkout and if they are they are definitely not cleaned up at all after check out. We stayed on the 'other side of the road' and the bathrooms were absolutely disgusting and falling apart. They were never cleaned at all during our stay (although we seen workers sitting in the golf cart goofing around and talking several times instead of actually cleaning the bathrooms). The only thing the workers did was add toilet paper (and not even enough because there were several times we went and there was no toilet paper). We were there 5 nights and the trash can wasn't emptied once and none of the garbage or toilet paper on the floor was ever picked up. There was also poop smeared across the wall and door in the one stall and poop all over one of the other toilets that was like that our whole stay as well. Mirror was literally tapped together with black tape, there was only one faucet handle and locks on the stall were broken. We had to go across the street into the other side of the campground to shower and the showers were absolutely disgusting. Black mold covered the shower curtains, was all in the lights and on the lower and higher sections of walls and it smelled like mildew. It was gross and cannot possibly be safe. This is definitely a party campground and no quiet hours are enforced. People were up partying, drinking and blasting music literally all night. It's such a shame because the location of this campground is amazing and it has the potential to be a great campground but we will never go back. We have never been to any campground this dirty, unkempt and with workers who literally just don't care or do their jobs. Such a disappointment. Wish I had seen all the other bad reviews before going. read more

This campground has alot of potential. Its an excellent location with great swimming however the campground itself was dirty and not well kept. Bathroom were not cleaned the entire time I was there (5 days/4nights). No TP except all the pieces scattered on the bathroom floor. Mud covering shower floor. Trash throughout the picnic area. And a constant weed smell coming from the boat check booth. They were weedwacking & chainsawing at 9am, although Im not sure where because all around the beach was over grown. (Poison ivy between the road & beach, as well as poison ivy & sumac along the roads/around campsites) Beach also had lots of trash and dead fish, which were there a few days and stank. Im not sure if I was just there on a rogue week, or if this is the normal state of the campground. I didnt get the impression it'd be in a slightly defunct state reading other reviews. Id give it a second chance, despite being underwhelmed this first time. read more

Some friends and I came here during our getaway trip in Lake George back in July. We didn't camp. We were there to kayak and canoe. And boy was it a fun time! The water is great. Perfect temperature, very clean. Some areas were shallow so us non-swimmers can enjoy being in the water. People were cliff jumping also which looked fun. The beach was nice. There is a fee to enter the campground, even if you're not camping. Here's a video of my experience: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVTqr5Li2Po read more

Had an absolute blast camping here. You have to be careful where you decide to pick your campsite though. If you are a couple or looking for peace and quiet I would recommend campsite 168 or something like it (see map below). If you are a big group then definitely get some campsites that are more close together. Depending on where you camp, some of the campsites can be on top of each other...while where we were was relatively quiet and practically private so choose wisely (see map in photos below) PROS: --super friendly and helpful staff. --quiet campground. Sure in the distance you hear people talking and laughing around a campfire. But that's a far cry from some asshole blasting music all hours of the night or some campground DJ blasting music throughout the campground. No...There was none of that. Campground was nice and quiet. We stayed up till 3am every night just laughing and talking around our campfire and no one bothered us. --definitely a secure campsite. 24 hour entrance security. Front entrance staff is super friendly and they are also vigilant to make sure everyone had a sticker and/or pass to enter the campground. --Ice & wood truck comes by twice a day and you can buy wood or ice or worms or whatever you might need. Very convenient. --Close to the lake where you can go swimming or just sun bathe with no one bothering you. --bathrooms were the cleanest bathrooms I've ever seen at a campground. --bathrooms have electric outlets (which was a huge plus for charging my phone during my morning shower). --about 10 miles away from wal-mart in case you forget anything. --close to general stores. Also small driving distance to lake George and canoe rentals. --far away from the hustle and bustle of screaming kids and madness that is at lake George escape (which in my opinion is the Las Vegas strip of camping if you ask me). --clothesline at your campsite to hang up wet towels and clothes. CONS: --depending on where your campsite is...you might have to walk a little to get some water. --depending on where your campsite is...you might have to walk a little to use the bathroom. --no internet service at campground but if you drive about 15 minutes down the road you can make calls and get some internet for texts and email. But if you need high speed internet you need to drive at least 40 minutes down the road and even then it's kinda spotty. --depending on where you camp your campsite can be close to the route 9 road (see picture below). Which for a NYC fellas such as myself, it didn't bother me because the cars drive by sporadically in the day and even more sporadic at night. But for some people it might be a pain. Hope that helps. All in all we had a blast but a lot of that depended on meticulously choosing the best campsite for us. Good luck :) read more

Rogers Rock Campground is a rustic piece of heaven on earth. This is my "Hotel California". I can check out anytime I want but I can never leave. My soul actually sits up here and waits for me to return each year. I have come at least once every year of my life which currently stands at 57 consecutive years. If you want full hookups for your RV then go somewhere else, but if you want seasoned campsites nestled in ancient forests than you have come to the right place. If you come just to sit at the campsite then you will only be getting a part of the blessing that is Lake George. The Indians believed that the crystal clear water had magical powers and I for one would not argue that point. Taking your morning dip in the lake's cool water will keep you awake the rest of the day. Take the time to walk along the lake through the pristine forests and commune with God and nature in a way that is hard to find anywhere else. I understand that God is everywhere, but when you speak to him here you will feel like he is listening. Because if I were omnipotent then this is where I would be. But if you were intent on just coming and spending the weekend drinking beer find another campground. read more

Best place to camp been coming here for 18 years straight, some sites are hit and some are a miss you gotta scope out your sites a year in advance to get the good ones. read more

Roger's Rock campground has been my summer playground for over 30 years. We camp with friends and have made and continue to make, wonderful memories. That being said, this year was different. The bathroom was not maintained for 7 days, until multiple complaints. And, even after, it was barely done. The floor, sink and toilets are not being scrubbed. When I say dirty I mean 2 (of the 4) toilets were clogged and about to over flow; things were floating in the sink drain, for days; there was garbage on the floor the would just stay there. Dirty, drenched toilet paper was in clumps around the toilet. Dead bugs and cobwebs that had been there probably since last season. The floor needs to be hosed daily - the dirt, dust, bugs and garbage show how little is being done. One whole window was covered over with plywood because of a broken window pane. (My guess is that the plywood will remain a permanent fixture and the glass pane won't be replaced.) *This bathroom shack #2, next to site 34 - ironically, the identical bath shack at the beach was pristine in its cleanliness. *Please also note that about 70 or more people are depending on these little bathroom shacks for their daily hygiene needs (not showering) So, the management was annoyed that we complained. (and there were apparently complaints coming from all sorts of campers). After being promised they'd clean and then they didn't (our 7th day of camping) I sent my husband up to lodge a complaint) Management told him that it was done (a lie) My husband overheard the guy in the booth say "these people are a pain in the a**") In the past, staff maintained the bathrooms on a daily basis. I hope this is just temporary. read more

(Feels like revealing a secret) but this park is a frozen-in-time gem of a lakeside campground. Plenty of campsites, swimming, boating, family fun. Sweet smell of pine needles everywhere. Don't know about power/water hookups. Nice tent camping. read more

Best campground ever! They just need to clean the bathrooms & maybe replace the pavement :) read more

Roger's Rock Campground - Campgrounds Near Me - Hague, New York

Let' start by saying I DO NOT like camping! And yet, my parents honeymooned at Roger's Rock and I have gone there every single year of my entire lifet. Those of us who grew up there stand by the claims that we knew every root on the paths and could run them barefoot. There have been many, many changes over the years (like bath houses outlets in the bathrooms, and screen doors on the bathrooms!). The staff if friendly and helpful. The sites are a nice size (I have a pop-up which fits well in every site) and there are plenty of bathrooms. You can't beat the views of Lake George. If you want relative piece and quiet, this is for you. There's always the party animals on the weekends but otherwise it's very family oriented. There's not much in this neck of the woods so be prepared to spend some time in the Ticonderoga Wal-Mart. They lost a star because while many of the fireplaces have been replaced, mine wasn't! read more

I camped here in mid-August 2020. This is a lovely facility with campsites, swimming beach and wonderful views of the lake and mountains. But the staff is terrible. When you arrive and try to register for a campsite, the staffers are brutal, mean, intentionally slow, and they try to make things miserable for the guest. I had driven 6 hours to this campground, and I was shocked at the rude treatment I received. During our stay, we visited a nice food market in the nearby town of Hague NY. The cashier asked if I was camping at the big campground nearby at Rogers Rock. When he heard I was staying there, he warned me to "beware the new staff at Rogers Rock. People are saying that the lady is a real blankety-blank" (rhymes with witch). I agree entirely. She's a loudmouth and she seems wacky, unhinged, and nutty in a very bad way ... and her male counterpart is not much better. I do not recommend this place. It's not a good place to visit, due to the terrible, poor behavior of the staff. read more

The campsites we had (222, 224) smelled like a septic tank ripe with diarrhea. The sites were supposed to have a parking area or driveway, but that feature was nonexistent. The campsites were crammed together like a can of sardines: rather than going for quality sites, this campground clearly went for quantity. We received very rude service from mostly every camp site staff member we came into contact with. Check-in was a very disorganized process, from the start to the end. When asking for a campground map and directions for a hiking trail, the attendant couldn't even give the courtesy of a pleasant response. I approached the attendant while she was sitting at her desk and politely said, "excuse me, could you please direct us to a campground map or directions for hiking trails?" She replied, without even looking up, "what?" And then, after a few seconds, she said "well, we don't even have any hiking trails." Surprised, I replied "really?" She responded "I guess there's a trail along the waterfront, about a mile and a half either way from this point." For some reason, she was very cold, Kurt, and didn't seem to want to help us. Every attendant we came into contact with was acting this way. Its almost as if they all drank from the same punch bowl, one filled with crankiness, disinterest, and a side of cold-hearted tone. In an area as breathtaking as greater Lake George, there is beauty everywhere. What sets one campground apart from the rest is the experience that its customers have; with staff, with the ambiance, and with the physical setting. Roger's Rock should focus more on treating customers with respect and genuine interest. Luckily, the lovely beach waterfront area slightly made up for the awful service and sub-par camp sites. What an amazing hike too, as we were able to walk for about a mile and a half right on the water's edge. Will we return next Summer? Sadly we are unsure, as maybe we will have better luck with nice staff and better camp cites at other locations. read more

Seven of us stayed a couple of days and had very favorable support from the staff. From having a family member lock themselves out of their car to another needing a AAA tow, the support staff were very friendly and helpful in getting "Our" issues resolved. I would definitely stay here again. Very close to boat rental business also. Pet friendly! read more

We really enjoyed our getaway here. Our tent site was very quiet (#259), so we slept very comfortably. The staff were very friendly and gave us hiking directions and ideas of what to do during the big reenactment weekend at Ft. Ticonderoga. There's even a local firewood guy who comes through the park with his truck selling fire wood! read more

What a mess. Came here during Memorial Day Weekend and was looking for a nice getaway. The sites were very close to each other, so much so that you could hear the music from other areas. The bathrooms were very far from our site, relative to other campsites we've been to. What drew us to this site was its beach access, but that came at a cost, as there were beach fees. Maybe it was a bad time to go, but even sans the crowds and loud music, the layout and nickel & diming is enough to keep us away. read more

I have been coming to Roger's Rock Campground for the last 2 decades, and I can easily say that it is one of the best campgrounds in the Adirondacks. It's enormous, with so many different sites to choose from, ranging in size and proximity to the lakefront (and Lake George is the most beautiful lake in the ADK, in my opinion!) The Roger's Rock trail is nearby, which you can climb to get a spectacular view of LG. My favorite part of this campground is what my family has dubbed the "rock beach," an unofficial yet popular swimming area that is separate from the traditional sand beach that most families with children go to. RR is also open later than some of the other campgrounds in the area - until Columbus Day weekend. I definitely recommend camping here! read more

This used to be a great family place to camp, but its turned into a loud party no rules sort of place - The rangers drive right by people not following the rules of the camp ground & don't say anything. After having my dog attacked by a dog off leash, not being able to sleep because people are rude, and the price of the wood I think we will not be going there again. Very sad to see what has become of this campground read more

I have been camping at Rogers Rock since at least 1973. This year we stayed for a week starting Aug. 15th. There were several things that I noticed that I was unhappy with. First, probably due to budget cuts the maintenance crew has been reduced. there were many things such as potholes in the road and other signs of neglect throughout the campground. second, the bathroom near our campsite was only cleaned once while we were there ( my wife noticed a Q-tip on the floor that stayed there the entire week) it seems that their idea of cleaning the bathrooms involves only replacing the toilet paper. We also noticed that in the Shower house near the beach that we used had not been painted in at least 3 years and the floor was dirty.In the past there was a Campground Supervisor named Bud Lawson that did a much better job keeping the campground in order than the present one. The Sites in may areas need to be improved as many areas have been eroded over the years. Also, There were no lifeguards on duty at the beach while we were there. The DEC charges you $22.00 per night along with a 2.75 "registration Fee" and $5.00 more if come from out of state. I love the campground and hope that they will bring in someone more competent to run it. read more
