Learn more about alerts →Fall foliage hunters and hikers get the most out of this place. Midweek in September or October lands you on trails to Kaaterskill Falls and the escarpment overlooks without weekend crowds, and lakeside sites in Loop 1 or Loop 7 double the color show on the water.
The 9 PM check-in cutoff is real and enforced, so anyone arriving after a long drive may find themselves locked out. A few reviewers have also noted staff interactions that felt unwelcoming, and peak summer weekends pack the loops tight enough that generator noise bleeds through

Fall is the standout season. Peak foliage hits in September and October, with daytime highs in the mid-40s to low 60s°F and nights dropping into the 30s and 40s. Mosquitos are gone, trails are at their best, and the overlooks frame brilliant color. Expect crowds on weekends during peak foliage, so midweek visits are smarter. Summer days reach around 77°F, good for swimming and paddling. Winter brings snow and freezing temperatures. Spring is wet, with streams running high and wildflowers emerging.
Fall is the standout season with peak foliage, cool days and highly praised scenery in reviews.
