We even managed to find a place to park (our car and the truck with the trailer) without more than 5 minutes of waiting at noon on the 4th of July. There are public restrooms just off the parking lot. There's the historic lighthouse, rebuilt in the last 10 years (can't remember exactly), and a well-maintained concrete wall that allows for good fishing. They had volunteers checking boats for invasive species as well.

In June/July 2013, eight of us were biking across NY along the Erie Canal. This was one of the…read moreplaces we camped. First off, they charges us over $100 for EIGHT of us to camp there. That is more than double of what we paid anywhere else (the lowest was $17.50 for all of us). The justification we were given for this price was that only two people could stay per camp site. Really? Two people per camp site? Ridiculous. The place is heavily Christian themed, including signs posted throughout the grounds. The mosquitoes were abundant, hungry, and fearless. Good things about the site: The people are nice (they smile at you while jacking you for all your money), the bathrooms have hot water (and mosquitoes), and there is a small convenience store with toothbrushes and the like. They take credit cards as well.

Yates Town Park has neither of those things, but this sweet little park still rates highly for our fam' when we're simply looking for a green place to chillax and chow down. The picnic set-up is well done here. There are about 6 or 7 tables, each with their own grill, with each set-up decently spread out from the others. The grills are FANTASTIC! Big, newer grills with lids! There is a small pavilion with 3 tables of its own, as well. There is no swimming beach here, but you are directly on the shoreline of lovely Lake Ontario, so the views are phenomenal. It is a rocky ledge down to the water, not really advisable to try and swim here. There is plenty of parking, and a big grassy area to toss a ball around as you'd like, too. One big drawback--no bathrooms. So be prepared to hold it, or use a bush. Yates Town Park doesn't have many amenities, but the lake breeze itself is reason enough to enjoy a relaxing picnic here with your own favorite peeps.

If I could summarize the experience at Holley Falls in one word, this would be it: carpooling. Yes, there are a few spots at the base of the waterfall, but they fill up fast. If you're going with others, make sure you share a ride because if you don't, you'll be using valuable hiking time trying to find somewhere to park. I can't even imagine how crowded it can get if someone's having a party or any kind of event. Since you're next to the canal, and the waterfall is basically runoff, get ready for muddy trails. I didn't get stuck or too muddy, but I can imagine it being worse after a rainy day. It's not the worst uphill hike I've ever been on, but it's a good workout nonetheless. You can get pretty close to the falls from some spots on the trail. If you're like me and afraid of getting too close, you still get a good view from further back. There's spots for fishing, plenty of spots for just sitting around, and an overall sense that the park is well maintained. I'll happily return to Holley for a visit to the falls again. It's easy to get to from Rochester and the fresh air is worth the drive. Just make sure you share a ride if you can, you don't want your amazing day eaten up by looking for a parking spot!

This area is akin to a craggy shoreline with a walking trail by the water's edge. You can clearly see an old, rocky fort/garrison just across the bay. My TO friends told me that area is actually in Nw York state, and the building is Fort Niagara. When I say it's close, I'm saying a good swimmer could swim there from here! There is a large, prominent hexagonal gazebo centrally located on the grassy stretch by the water's edge. It is quite Victorian in style, with white wooden cut-outs and embellishments. I thought it would make for a gorgeous location, with he craggy shoreline and Lake Ontario behind it, for wedding or engagement photos, or any momentous occasion, really. Just a beautiful site. (A gallery owner later informed us that this gazebo was built for the Stephen King movie, "The Dead Zone", and they gifted it to the town when the movie was done, as so many locals loved it. It really does seem to fit perfectly on the site). There is a large parking lot by the park, but I believe it is paid parking, FYI. It takes but ten minutes to walk the shoreline trail and back, but it's a wonderful stroll on a lovely day, and the area is so picturesque, it's like out of a postcard. Definitely worth the time, if you are in the area

Checking in is easy and you can buy campfire wood and ice from the main office, and they'll even deliver it right to your campsite which was nice because there was no way I was gonna be able to carry 4 bundles of wood ($5 each) on my bike. They do have a nice playground. Not sure if I mentioned that in my first review. This is a good campground for families. The only thing I negative I can say about this place, and it isn't even their fault so I won't deduct any stars, is that there's a dairy farm right across the street from the entrance out on the main road so if the wind blows just right you get that awful ammonia and poop smell throughout the campground.

The nature trails may have been a bit muddy from recent rain, but easy to manage, recommend if you check park out after rain, wear hiking boots, or sneakers you don't mind getting dirty.

The beach is still inaccessible there are giant cement blocks so it's not a straight shot down for a wheelchair and the grass around them is very uneven and hilly like ground for a wheelchair to go over and I got stuck in the rocks and had to ask people to help push me out, then on the way back to the walk way (video I posted) my wheelchair was going to flip. There are small simple things that they could have been done, I've been to other beach's that have strips over the sand/ rocks that wheelchairs can ride over. The building looks nice they added a small golf course. To me it seems like all they did was build the restaurant and build up the rock walls especially around the beach.
