Fish Creek Pond Campground, located in the heart of the Adirondack Park near Saranac Lake, is surrounded by stunning scenery, a series of interconnected ponds, and plenty of recreational opportunities.
The campsites at Fish Creek Pond Campground dot the shorelines of both Square Pond and Fish Creek Pond, two small bodies of water connected by a channel. They are closely surrounded by a myriad of other connected bodies of water, including Follensby Clear Pond, Upper Saranac Lake, Copperas Pond, Black Pond, Whey Pond, Rollins Pond, Polliwog Pond, Horseshoe Pond, and more. To the north lies the Saint Regis Canoe Area, while the village of Saranac Lake is only a short drive away.
Note, swimming closes for the season at this campground on August 15, 2021.
