Smith Memorial Park

Hector, NY

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!
