They have well stocked store at the campground. They do theme weekends, have activities on some days. I am looking forward to visiting them again. Also the pool is heated big plus. Now the cons: slow or no internet, cable TV lines are old and seems to out after rain storms. Also lack of shower houses only 2 male and 2 female showers and they have tent campers so they rely on them plus even as a RVer I still like using a shower house just more room. With all said I hope one day to be a seasonal camper there. No where is perfect and the pros here are bigger and more then the few small cons

Second time mining, but first at this location. You can mine here until sunset unlike other…read morelocations that have a set time to close. Earlier in the year gives you a longer opportunity to mine! $28 per person to enter. There is equipment to rent or buy, I suggest renting compared to the prices of buying, or bring your own! Compared to another mines, this one is smaller with three different areas, we chose the black diamond mine. Being newly excavated, we had a chance at unearthing more diamonds in this location versus cracking open the stones. Unfortunately, we stopped in during a mining competition so one mine was pretty much off-limits but we were still able to find a lot of cool diamonds and rocks

Knowledgeable and welcoming staff, cabin was clean, bathrooms were clean, camp showers were hot…read more Cabins have windows and an overhead fan, but if you are going during the hot season, bring an extra to help move air through. We went at a rough time with a brutal heat index but came back with a decent collection of stones. My son wandered and found a few stones loose in the dirt of the mine. Definitely suggest bringing a pop up canopy for shade while mining. The sluicing option (buy a bag, pour in sieve, rinse) produced some great stones and fossils that we can't wait to tumble and polish. Most of the lot is gravel, which makes for difficult terrain for wheelchair users. The beds in the cabin are rough sleeping, especially after a day spent mining. If you can, pack extra padding for a better sleep. Overall, a good experience. We'll be back when the temps aren't so cruel and see what we can get when we aren't risking heat exhaustion to pound rocks.

It has been one of my favorite campground for years now, and obviously more people have discovered…read morethis wonderful place, as it is almost impossible to get a lakeside campsite these days. A small lake, no large motorized boats are allowed, so it is quiet and peaceful. In fact, the greatest disturbances tend to be other campers who insist on playing their music loudly. Thankfully, there is usually a good amount of space between sites, and most people respect the quiet hours. While this campground is a long way away from where I live, it is definitely worth the drive. If you are interested in fall camping, I can't even being to describe how beautiful it is to wake up in the morning to see the lake surrounded by a riot of colors.

This was one of the more unique camping experiences I've had at a NYS campground and I really…read moreenjoyed the experience. Located close to Indian Lake, the Lewey Lake Campground has multiple entrances off of Route 30N with the main campground the furthest south and what I have labeled on the Yelp map. Keep in mind that the address does not come up properly on Google Maps or Bing maps so look at the Yelp placement for more accuracy. We were at the furthest north campsites which are pretty isolated from everyone else. The sites our group stayed at were situated right next to a stream which was great for sleeping. You couldn't hear anyone around you and even with the goings on at our lower campsite we couldn't hear them at all. There only outhouses at this location of the campground but it is a short drive to the main sites that have real bathrooms and showers along with a nice, simple beach. Despite how close it is to Route 30N, I definitely felt isolated in a good way and would highly recommend staying there for people looking for some interesting camping with reasonably convenient location.

This was a dream come true! I have always wanted to mine Herkimers and in August I was finally able…read moreto do it! There is nothing fancy here, rent tools ($1+ each), "outdoorsy" bathroom/shower, helpful employees in the shop, and piles of rocks as far as the eye can see! We used tools but unless you have some practice or really know what you're looking for it is a lot of hard work to get a rock open. We cracked some small rocks open to reveal a small matrix of Herkimers but it's difficult work. I did well just digging in the huge piles and moving rocks. On a sunny day you can see Herkimers shining bright when the sun hit them. This helps narrow down searching around. It is great fun but definitely make sure to dress appropriately, bring food/water and sunscreen! The rock piles are tall and slippery. You can easily twist an ankle if you are not careful! We left dirty and tired a d satisfied. I can't wait to visit again!

It took a while for us to row out…read morethere in our inflatable row boat - probably two hours - but you can rent a canoe at the ranger station which would get you out there in maybe an hour or hour and a half. It's a beautiful little private island with a pit toilet and fire pit with picnic tables. This year we spent one night at site 26, which was a little too close to other rowdier sites, and one night at 39, which was beautiful and secluded. If you're thinking about camping here but don't have a boat, rent a canoe! It's a nice way to get out to the islands and work up a sweat so you're ready to swim by the time you get to your site. Some words of advice: make sure you text anyone you need to while you're in Speculator or Indian Lake because if you need to get a hold of someone while you're camping you have to row back to shore, which could take hours if your site is further up the lake, then drive into town to get service; bring a roll of toilet paper with you if you don't want to use the cheapo single ply the whole time you're there; and lastly, really look at the map to make sure you know what you're getting into in terms of the trek out to your site! 32 is far enough that it feels remote but not so far you can't canoe there. Much further north and you're looking at hours of paddling. All in all a great spot to get away.

Some are located on islands, some on the shore along the lake. They're all extremely private but very primitive, a fire ring, picnic table and outhouse .

The lake is beautiful, with opportunities to get out and hike up a mountain or to a waterfall. If you're going to camp you need to bring all of your supplies with you, including drinking water. There are shower facilities that you can access at Lewey Lake Campground, just across the road from the Indian Lake access.
