Overview

Description

Crown Point has a rich heritage dating back to the 1750's, and Crown Point Public Campground rests over battlefields and fort locations dating back to 1775. Remnants of structures and sites remain for visitors to view. The lighthouse built in 1858 and rebuilt in 1911-12, is positioned on the campground shore. It can be toured for the appropriate day-use fee and overlooks the 281,600 acre Lake Champlain. Positioned so that it is majestically overlooking Lake Champlain and neighboring Vermont, the Crown Point bridge looms on the northern shore of the campground and is one of the few bridges connecting New York State and Vermont. The entire Crown Point Reservation, including all 49 acres of the campground, are listed in the National Register of Historic Places and have been designated by the United States Secretary of the Interior as a National Historic Landmark.

Geography:

The campground is located on the lower southwestern shore of Lake Champlain, north of the village of Crown Point. The New York State Conservation Department acquired the land in 1910. In 1912, the Champlain Memorial Lighthouse was dedicated to commemorate the 300th anniversary of Champlain's discovery of the lake that now bears his name. In 1929, the steamboat pier was constructed, and it has become a popular fishing spot. Construction of the campground began in 1915. In 1930, 1951, and 1952, it was expanded to its present size.

Recreation:

Power boats, rowboats, and canoes are allowed/ the campground offers a boat launch. Fishing for largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, northern pike, bullhead, yellow perch, brown trout, and lake trout is popular.

Facilities:

The park has campsites, hot showers, a trailer dump station, a recycling center, disabled accessibility, and a boat launching ramp. Campsites are capable of holding any size RV and are blanketed with grass all summer long. There is one on-site lean-to.

Nearby Attractions:

The campground and surrounding area are steeped in significant history and archaeological resources. Adjacent to the campground are the historic forts Crown Point and Fort St. Frederic. Designated Crown Point State Historic Site is an area attraction. Fort Ticonderoga is located 10 miles south of Crown Point. A lighthouse located on the campground was built in 1858 and rebuilt in 1911-12. The Crown Point Bridge is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
