What a great campground! Off the beaten path ( really quiet), clean facilities and a nice fishing lake. Family activities planned every weekend (we had a band playing for us and a pancake breakfast on Sun. morning). Lot's of tree cover, so no satellite reception. We were able to pick up 3 channels on local TV though. This is a place where you stock up on groceries, bring a few good books, a fishing pole and just relax. There is a small store on site for staples i.e. bread, milk, ice cream, etc. in case you forget something though. The only reason this place didn't get a 10 from us was the limited spots that a RV over 35' could easily get into. But the owners are working on this small issue to create some larger spots. Big rigs - be sure and take your toad to PREVIEW your assigned camp spot! Best spot for 38'-40': back into #303. We have a 40' RV. New owners are doing a great job! We would stay here again anytime. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have camped at this campground at various times over the last 20+ years and have gone through several owners. The previous owner did absolutely nothing during the various times I camped under their ownership. All they did was let the place run down and also did not treat people well. The campground is now under new ownership (Mike and Karin Caccavale) and they have made significant improvements to the grounds and facilities. They have told me of the various things they intend to do to make Kayuta Lake Campground the showplace of the Foothills to the Adirondacks. They are very friendly and accommodating to all of the campers and guests. Both Mike and Karin go out of their way to make you welcome and happy to be here. I am looking forward to many more trips to Kayuta Lake Campground now that it is under new management with significant improvements and more to come. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Our experience was completely different from the review submitted in 2001. The staff and
seasonals are friendly, the facilities clean and there isn't a no drinking rule: it's a no getting drunk rule. The owner personally came around to warn everyone of the inpending power blackout of 2003 and to give advice on how to minimize the consequences. Altogether a great stay and highly recommended to all. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Mike Eagles, the owner, watched me like an eagle. He is extremely arrogant and rude to his campers. There is no drinking allowed on the property, even in moderation. Also, when I got my new OPD valve installed by him, he installed a broken one. Therefore, when I attempted to have it refilled, he refused to fill it and charged me again for a new valve. After repeated attempts to get a refund, he said "Hey, if your cars broken,
you don't blame the guy putting gas in it." All in all, it was a poorly run campground and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. We camped here in a camper.
