Dennis, camp host, allowed us to switch sites, giving us a beautiful view from our campsite.
Enjoyed the BEST fish & chips at the Lodge, and paddle boarding on the lake. Feels like Summer!

Having a campsite close to lake alpine, was awesome. We did water activities both the days we were there and kids had a great time. Host was very informative as well. All in all, great campsite. Looking forward to next year.

We had such a great time! It was soooo beautiful there, the campsite at Silvertip was fun, lots of space and very quiet. We absolutely loved Lake Alpine and can’t wait to visit again!

Nice bathrooms. Site was not super flat and hard to get a second car in the site. We had 2 adjoining sites and had a great time. Food at the lodge was good and the water was warm enough to walk in.

This campsite is conveniently located next to Route 4 and offers water access and clean restrooms. The best part for me was that the trail starts right next to the campsite, so I didn't need to drive to the trailhead.
I stayed at Site #6, which had plenty of space for my 22-foot RV. The only downside was the lack of shade at this site. We ended up having dinner in direct sunlight.
Overall, I had a great experience and would recommend this campsite to others.

Wonderful experience. Small campground, lots of space between sites. Walking path to lake, dog and kid friendly.
