Soaring Eagle Camp Ground

Soaring Eagle Camp Ground

The campground is very nice, but the downfalls really show... I worked at landers River trips for…read moreover 7 years in my youth which is pretty close to soaring eagle and being able to compare and contrast really shows here.... The biggest thing QUIET HOURS... the rude workers in the office expect you to just run to your tent put the fire out and go night night at 11pm SHARP. Yes I understand shut the music down at 11pm but when kids and parents are screaming at 6:00am in the morning it's perfectly ok?! Crazy "double standards". ALSO from my years of River safety and experience the life jackets that they have, are ripped, missing buckles, old and are past their expiration... if you want to enjoy camping without a headache and cognitive people go to LANDERS RIVER TRIPS!!!!! God forbid a yn wants a good trip.

This is an extremely special place and if you have a chance to spend some time here, do it. The…read morelocation is stunning. A large and lush piece of land on the Delaware River. There's a crystal clear creek running through the campground. The creek and the river are magical places for kids to play. They search for tadpoles and other critters and can swim in the protected lagoon, which gets deeper gradually. Finally, you can lay in the rushing river water for the ultimate spa experience. Can you tell we liked it here? The campground is run by a family who has had the land in their hands for generations. They are excited and kind about sharing it with visitors and have created an awesome culture of friendliness and respect among campers and the campground owners. There is a well equipped camp store with everything you might have forgotten and even local pottery. The bathrooms and grounds are very clean. They also run tube, canoe and kayak trips where they'll drop you off upriver and you'll finish at Soaring Eagle. We did a tube float down the river which was the highlight of the trip. There weren't many others on the river with us which was a special thing. They also rent canoes and kayaks. We'll try those next time.

My family was not into traditional camping, so Roscoe Campsites provided us with an elevated…read more"glamping" experience that myself, my wife, and our 3 kids (and 2 dogs) all enjoyed IMMENSELY. Kaylie, Kyle, and Scott were unbelievably attentive and helpful, and the area impressed us so much, we're now looking into buying a cabin in Roscoe Highly recommend.

We made or reservations back in March and stayed May 23rd - 27th…read more It was a nice campground and you can tell they are doing a lot of really nice improvements. We were a little disappointment through. When we made the reservations back in March we had a choice of several sites. I asked for her recommendations for the best river site. She recommended R6 and it looked great on the map. When we arrived he told us R6 was not a great site and needed work. I'll say so......look at my photos of site R6. So we ended up across the street and down a few sites. See map in photos I attached. It was a mud pit even on the dry days. No grass or privacy. I asked if any of the concrete pad sites were available as I would pay to upgrade but he told us they were sold out. (However the one across from us was empty our entire stay.) The staff was very helpful and friendly. Not the fault of the campground but the family in the cabin by the river had a small dog that started barking at 6:30am through the day. It was annoying seeing them sit there next to the dog and let it bark.

Nice quiet campsite. The majority of the trailer/RV's here are seasonal people. Under new ownership…read more(very nice young couple) as of August 2021 and they plan to make many upgrades to the campground. The roads are tight for larger trailers/RV's and some sites are very hard to get into. 20 & 30 amp service available with water at nearly every site. No sewers. You can dump nearby at Mongaup State Park if needed. The tent camping spots are very nice and very secluded. Very limited cell service on site. WiFi only near the campsite office.

I'm a little scared to tell you how much I loved this place for fear that you'll all book up my…read morespot, but I feel it's my duty to share, so here it comes. I love camping, but I'm really picky. I want it all. I want the feeling of privacy, I want to camp on the waterfront, I want the rustic environment with all of it's natural charm & I want that hot shower with a flushing toilet nearby. I wanted the ideal romantic campsite that would be great for a couple. That's a lot to ask for right? Wrong! I found our gem, so stay with me here... First things first! Call them up & discuss your needs. I may want & need all that I have listed above, but your needs may be wildly different. They'll most likely have an ideal spot that caters to all of *your* needs. I need a huge tent, because I'm a bit of an air mattress "glamper," and I also needed the feeling of privacy. *I* was keen to walk a bit & leave the car in another spot to achieve my perfect campout, so they directed me to *my* needs. I spoke with Heidi (a couple owns this site) & she answered all of my questions in-depth before helping me book the site. There is something for everyone, I assure you. Call & discuss with her, she gets *it*. We stayed on the Islands, beyond the Pines sites. There were rules involved. The sign should just read "NO JERKS ALLOWED," but jerks don't read signs & jerks don't even know that they're jerks, so there are rules that pertain. I booked a spot on the Island where there are no radios (except w/ headphones) and no dogs allowed. Sure, you think your music taste is great, and that your dog is harmless & cute, but I might not think that! This part of the campground was perfect for me, but if you want to play radios, have your car right near the tent, or bring your dog along, she'll book you another part of the campground where it's allowed. We pulled into the Pines parking lot & got a handy wheelbarrow to haul our things over to what felt like a completely secluded campsite for my boyfriend & I. The only signs of life from neighboring sites were smoke signals from their campfires. It felt like we owned the land, just him & I, and I was really grateful. I'm a city dweller, I don't need other people to communicate with, because they're with me at all times when I'm home. I wanted to feel alone & I got it! No giant frat party here! If you want a more active part of the grounds, ask, but I don't think jerks are allowed, so keep it in mind if you're a big jerk! We were told how to keep it clean if we didn't want to tempt greedy raccoons & we did, so there was no evidence of hungry animals that would have eaten us in the night. We were also assured that even though it's bear country, bears weren't an issue there like many of the Catskill campgrounds. Not a single bear interrupted us. We did see some gorgeous deer when we pulled into the road, some salamanders, a few hummingbirds & a chipmunk. All so very welcome to share the experience with! Outside of flushing toilets & showers, there are outhouses closer to each site for that middle of the night bathroom trip. When I arrived, Heidi assured, "They're clean." And they were. Nothing gross about the shower house, or the outhouses & that's kind of hard to achieve. Hats off to the couple who own this place. They're doing everything correctly. On-site Heidi runs a little camp shop for all your forgotten, but needed basics. Firewood & sodas, ice, eggs & bacon, marshmallows, grahams & chocs for s'mores. Batteries for lights, and well, you get the picture. These people get my style! Or I get theirs, rather, but you know what I mean. On the campgrounds you'll find the sincerely charming & quaint old covered bridge, a quick hike to waterfalls, and a great menagerie of animals that Heidi keeps! Roosters & chickens, some fancy Polish chickens who look like Andy Warhol art stars, donkeys, a horse, cats & bunnies, curly feathered wedding geese and a goat that begs for a nibble of food. Heidi took the time to satisfy my curious questions about the animals while my boyfriend happily fed them all some feed that you can buy for just a dollar. Thing is, I always leave the campsite & do Catskill things, but this time I didn't even want to leave the site at all. It was all there for me. Although it's pricier than some campgrounds, I'll definitely be dropping my usual favorites & come here instead. It was worth every penny & I'm happy to have found it at last. It's perfect & our hostess Heidi was a sincerely gracious & cool gal that I'll see year after year, I'm sure. I woke up in NYC after my trip feeling fully charged & refreshed, already ticking down the months for my next trip up.

I mean it's ok...!? If your going there to fish, good luck. The main lake is not great fishing…read more However if you venture up to twin fawn and ice pond they are ok. It's a nice walk around the main lake. Amazing pictures to be taken of foliage and lake. I would say avoid Summer crowd as it can bring in some riff raff campers. Not great hiking unless your looking for flat dirt road hiking. If you don't plan on camping you can rent a Log cabin. The log cabin rentals are....eh? Do your homework prior to going to be sure you know what your renting. Has beach on end of the lake but can sometimes be mud and not sand. They do have row boat and kayak rentals that are pretty nice. Food stand is good with decent food stand food. All in all it's not a bad place but very low adventure but pretty.

What an incredible place to just breathe in the fresh air! Amazing campground with many tables for…read morea picnic. The tables are a good distance from each other and perfect for the 6 ft social distancing amid the COVID-19 Pandemic. This park was not crowded, had a few families and dogs- but just the perfect amount this past Saturday. I really enjoyed being here and was so grateful for the views. They have a nice hiking trail and it's a wide open space. I am thankful for the lake where you can canoe and kayak. Everyone is very respectful to each other. The park also has two lovely playgrounds for children to play on- after the pandemic. I can't say enough good things about this park because it's just perfect. If you ever have a chance to get outside and explore this is the place to be. Early mornings in the summer - I cannot wait to go back- but friends don't forget your masks! Stay safe!
