Kenneth L. Wilson Campground Review
At this campground, part of the Catskill Forest Preserve camping system, tall pine trees surround sites, which are near a lake with a sand beach. The lake contains chain pickerel, yellow perch, bullheads, white sucker, shiners, and sunfish. Fishing licenses are available at the campground, as are rowboat, canoe, paddleboat, and kayak rentals. The grounds—originally several farms—lie in the valley of Little Beaver Kill, a tributary of Esopus Creek. Each site has a picnic table and grill. Self-contained RVs are welcome.
