I've been camping at this park on my trips from Arizona to Vermont and back for around 15 years. It's a peaceful first stop on my way back from Vermont. it's always been a favorite since it is situated so nicely above the lake, it's quiet, and it's often not very full. I loved being greeted and helped by the nice woman at the entry kiosk. I was very frustrated by the new online only registration process, I wasn't expecting it as you had always been so available and friendly there. I was already down at my campsite when I found out I had to do it that way. I had to go down by the lake to get cell service. I tried the phone # but it had a long wait, I tried the website but needed the correct password, I had to go back up to the camper for that. It was nearly an hour before I finally got settled into camp.

Hope that you keep the campground open that late in the season or even a little later in the year. Always looking for places to go in October and November.

This was the first year tompkins campground was open past labor day. It did not disappoint. We were in coverage and the complete cove was booked. Where sometimes during the summer you see spaces empty. It was such a great time spent outdoors for fall. We truly hope tompkins campground can be open in years to come past labor day.
