    Darien Lakes State Park - After the storm

It was pretty but it's more or less just a place to park. No activities to do around the park unless you hang at the beach. There weren't any trails or anything to do for fun. Kind of boring.

    Darien Lakes State Park is not the amusement park. It's the state park and campground less than 15…read moreminutes from the amusement park. If you like the amusement park, and like to camp, and need accommodations, staying here will save you a huge change chunk. We camped here for the first time last summer, mid-August. It was our only kid-free camping trip of the season. The hub'ster and I had concert tickets at Darien Lake Amphitheater (basically in the theme park), and made a getaway out of it by staying here. The proximity to the concert was great. We didn't get sloshed, so drove back and forth to the show, but the desk told us that Ubers are a safe, easy option for transport that campers who are concertgoers use often. Speaking of the front desk, the staff was excellent. Very friendly, offered up useful suggestions without us asking, happily replaced our parking tag when I accidentally ripped the first one. It's nice when customer service staff goes above and beyond to make sure you know what you need to know. We stayed on electric site #22. The site was grassy and pretty level, with good shade. It was a larger site that we could actually wrap around, instead of having to back in. That's always winning in my husband's book. The bathrooms here were kept very clean, probably the cleanest state park bathrooms of all our camp travels so far. The facilities weren't new, but they were well cared for and tidy. Great job facilities crew! The park's amenities include a small lake with fishing and swimming, some sports courts/fields, great nature trails, and pavilion/picnic areas. I believe there is disc golf too. The hubs and I relaxed at the beach, and explored the trails. There was definitely more trail to trek than we had time for, so we're looking forward to getting out there again someday. Both my husband and I enjoyed our camping stay at Darien Lakes State Park very much. We ventured into nearby cute lil' Alden to poke around a bit, relaxed on the site, had a great time at the concert, and didn't miss our kids for a second! In our defense, it was only 3 nights away. Give it 4, and good-mom-miss-my-kids vibes would have probably kicked in. Probably.

I think that with more focus on an "all things in, all things out" approach, this area would be better for both bouldering enthusiast in addition nature fanatics alike!

You can…read moretrade rocks, crystals, fossils and such for their inventory or participate in a point based scavenger hunt, taking photos throughout the park, and redeem points for something in their inventory. I ma a huge rock hound, crystal nut- not just because my name is Crystal, I've loved picking up shiny rocks since I was a small child. Quartz and mica are two I remember finding often as a child. Here- they had a huge inventory of various raw and polished stones, fossils, animal bones and such. And that was just in the Nature Exchange! The park is wonderful too, plenty of trails to lead you down by the river, wonderful trees, great overlook viewpoints throughout. As part of the Niagra Parks system, they have bike trails too. We stopped here twice, once to explore and once for me to pop back in with my photos and pick out a raw piece of turquoise! A birthday win for me! Shout out to the young lady who talked to me in the morning, she wasn't there when I returned- and I am pretty sure the 2 young men thought I was crazy (I am), but they were all very helpful for this big kid out playing in nature!
