We had a wonderful stay at 1000 Islands campground! The campground was clean and beautiful, and the staff couldn't have been any friendlier. I highly recommend this campground and we can't wait to return. Thank you so much for all the help when arriving!!

We almost booked another campground up the road after reading one particular review, but we decided to try Thousand Islands Campground—and I’m SO glad we did! We’re a full-time traveling family of five (plus a dog) in a 40' fifth wheel, and we’ve learned that smaller, privately owned campgrounds are often better. From the moment we pulled in, we knew we’d made the right choice.
The sites are level and spacious, full hookups are provided, and the playground was a huge hit with our kids (5 stars!). A short “secret” trail leads to the neighboring state park beach, and the campground even has a state park pass you can borrow to skip the entry fees to the many other parks nearby.
What truly set this stay apart, though, were the people. Manager Maria and camp hosts Bob and LeeAnn went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They engaged with our kids (something we deeply value), shared pages of notes on local places to explore, and made our stay feel like home. Compared to the newer, more “resort-style” campground nearby, Thousand Islands Campground is beautifully established, with mature trees and a warm, personal touch. If you value hospitality, community, and a charming, well-kept property, you’ll be very well taken care of here.

From booking to leaving our stay was absolute perfection!! All of the staff was accommodating at booking for the weekend, the ENTIRE campground is beautifully manicured! Not a blade of grass out of place! Our cabin was clean, smelled like pine, comfy bed, and amenities were as listed. Bathrooms and showers were so clean and well stocked.
We'll definitely be back!
Thank you to all the staff they made for a great stay

The owners are wonderful! Very accommodating and very kind. We will definitely be camping here again. Close to all the local attractions. Bathrooms are very nice and kept very clean.

This was the cleanest campground I have ever camped at. Rest rooms and showers were well maintained and the grounds never had any litter anywhere. Very relaxing atmosphere, friendly staff and other campers were just as friendly.
