About

Smith Memorial Park is a classic lakeside park and campground that caters to small camping: tents, camper vans, or small to mid-sized tow-behinds. Made into a campground in the 1970’s, its forested hills, steep bluffs and lakefront lawn has hosted scores of family and community gatherings since the 1800’s.

In the heart of New York State’s Finger Lakes and along the Seneca Lake Wine Trail, its location offers the best of both nature and socializing. Go for a paddle on the lake, hike the Finger Lakes National Forest, or visit one of the region’s many State Parks. If you’re feeling more sociable — head out to the wine trail to listen to live music, savor local spirits, eat good food and meet new friends!

    The park is absolutely wonderful. The sites are a decent size and come with water and electric. The restrooms are very clean and have large showers. The people in the office are very nice and helpful. The area is beautiful with all the different colors. The lake can be seen by most of the sites.

    The campsite and all its facilities were super clean. Each site had a great view of the lake and is super close to all the wineries & other amenities. I would recommend Smith Memorial Park to everyone.
