Best Time to Camp at Long Island (Lake George Is.)

Experience the dramatic seasonal transformations of the Adirondacks, where winter's crystalline frost gives way to verdant spring blooms, leading into warm, languid summer days perfect for swimming and stargazing. The ideal camping window brings crisp, dry air with temperatures that invite both daytime exploration and cozy campfire evenings. While late summer occasionally delivers refreshing rain showers that enhance the forest's earthy aromas, most days offer the clear, brilliant skies that make Lake George legendary among outdoor enthusiasts.
