"Our goal is that you will have a legendary camping experience here at our campground and that we will become the standard by which you measure all others." - Paul & Cam Friesen, owners Watkins Glen KOA

Watkins Glen KOA Campground is a complete Camping Resort located in the Heart of the Fabulous Finger Lakes Region of New York State. We specialize in the Family Vacation, Family Reunions, and BIG RIG tourists. Our Full Hook-Up Sites have Cable and there is a fiber optic line dedicated for wireless high speed internet throughout the RV Park. Great Expectations… Fulfilled!

We are committed to making your vacation in New York's Finger Lakes Region most memorable. The Watkins Glen/Corning area is considered the heart of the Southern Finger Lakes, with most of the spectacular points of interest within 30-45 minutes of our campground. We are in the heart of it all!

Our campground has long been regarded as the best location for RVers and Campers who come to enjoy the region. Over the years we have focused on adding amenities to encourage you to "kick back and enjoy".

We are continuing to add to your camping experience, and improve our facilities. We have added an open pavilion for the 2011 season, refurbished our Kamping Kabins, added fiber optic for wireless high speed internet access, and changed our entrance to be more Big Rig friendly. All this and more just for this year's season. There are many future plans as well.

Of course we still have many guest favorites - the indoor pool and spa, enclosed pavilion with weekend breakfast gatherings, the Pirate Ship playground with plenty of buried treasures, theater in the woods, the Summer Shine group led activities and so much more!

Our Nephew and his wife be a part of the Management team for their second season. Sam and Mandi desire, as we do, to bring families together to create memories of a lifetime. We want to be your first choice when planning where to go.

The Watkins Glen KOA Camping Resort has been recognized by KOA, Inc., a system of 450 campgrounds in North America, as the "2009 KOA Kampground of the Year". We are proud to receive such an honor and humbled by our love of the Industry. For the past 25 years KOA has honored one of its own for their contributions, both to the camper and to the camping industry.  These campgrounds have a legacy of raising the bar of excellence by meeting and exceeding camper expectations as well as helping to set the standard for the rest of the camping industry.

We purchased the Watkins Glen KOA in 1992.  Over the years, we have transformed this camping facility into a state-of-the-art RVing and Camp Lodging Resort.  We are the first New York KOA campground to receive the prestigious award, "Kampground of the Year" and we thank the many families who have camped with us over the years for inspiring us to make the experience even better.

We are blessed to have been here for 20 years and look forward to creating memories with you...
