Green Lakes State Park Campground
There are both electric and non electric sites, open for reservations now! Rent an RV locally (limited supply) or pick up a van or RV from one of the bigger cities (NY, Boston, Burlington) and drive it up or over. *see below for links
Bring your tent if you want a more raw and economical camp experience.

There are also 7 cabins. Josh and I will be in one, 3 or 4 will be for family and the other 2 or 3 will be friends. If you are interested in staying in a cabin, please let me know ASAP, I have reserved them ahead of time. There are beds for 4 people, a 2 person and two singles. They are not full service so you’ll have to bring sleeping bags, pillows, towels etc.
***We will be partying in the cabin area so please be prepared for that if you want to stay there! Otherwise, collaborate with your friends to book campsites close to each other and/or close to the cabin

Tents and other gear
Unfortunately there are no local spots that rent gear anymore. But I found this website that will camping ship gear to Syracuse.

The Craftsman Inn & Suites
We hope you camp with us, but here’s another option if you need a room
Holiday Inn Express & Suites Dewitt (Syracuse) an IHG Hotel
Another hotel option that might be cheaper? But just come camp out!
If we have enough guests that are planning to stay in a hotel, I’ll block out some rooms and try to find a shuttle back to the hotel on Saturday night. Let us know your planned accommodations in the RSVP!
For those of you traveling across the country:
It’s a journey!! Thank you for being willing to come so far!
If you have the time and money, it’s worth it to spend at least a week. If you want to explore upstate NY, see the “things to do” tab.
Other recommendations:
*The big apple! 🍎 if you’ve never been to NYC, it’s definitely an experience! From there you can rent a car/van/RV, take a train, or take another short flight to Syracuse. Check out China town/Little Italy, Manhattan (go see a show!), Central Park, ground zero, walk across the Brooklyn bridge, go to Ellis Island/Statue of Liberty, take the subway to get around. The possibilities are endless.
*Burlington, VT - basically the east coast version of Bellingham. Good mountain biking, hiking, hip little city and fall is such a beautiful time there. If you decided to rent a vehicle there and drive to Syracuse, it’s a long but very beautiful drive through the mountains.
*Chicago- a good part way stop to avoid an excruciatingly long flight. Go to a comedy show at Zanies. Take the architecture river tour. Go walk along the shoreline of Lake Michigan and eat some Chicago style deep dish pizza.
*Boston or Philly but I don’t have much in the way of suggestions for those spots except make sure you get a lobster roll in Boston and obviously a cheesesteak in Philly.
