Summer brings the best conditions for water activities, with daytime highs between 75 and 85°F and nighttime lows in the 50s to 60s. This is peak season.

About Eagle Point

Eagle Point Campground sits on the western shore of Schroon Lake, a 4,230-acre glacial lake that reaches 152 feet deep. The campground has 72 sites for tents, RVs, and primitive camping, with fees at $22 per night. Hot showers, flush toilets, and a beach keep things comfortable, though some sites sit close together. The lake and surrounding Adirondack forest make this a solid base for swimming, boating, and fishing.

The campground primarily caters to primitive tent camping and smaller RVs or trailers. Groups and pets are welcomed within specified limits.

Historical Significance

The campground was developed in 1928-1929, preserving a mile of Schroon Lake shoreline. It takes its name from the sandy point jutting into the lake, where eagles once fished in the early mornings.

Go if

Kayakers, anglers, and swimmers who want direct lake access on a budget. Sites #53 and #60 offer lake views and the most breathing room; #19 is another privacy standout. The beach earns consistent praise and the boat launch handles motorboats, canoes, and kayaks.

Skip if

No electric or water hookups means RVers who need them will be disappointed. The tight loops put neighbors close, playground equipment is gone, and recent reviewer sentiment has been slipping, so expect a functional but not polished experience.
