Overview

Description

Mongaup Pond Campground offers a 120-acre lake, the largest body of water in Catskills Park, outside of the New York City reservoirs. Surrounded by Forest Preserve land, the park offers hiking, snowmobiling. Large, wooded campsites, some on the lake, appeal to campers who enjoy a dense forest environment and seclusion. Swimming in the lake, relaxing in the picnic area, and renting boats are popular pastimes here. To insure fairness for all NY customers, any reservation with departure dates outside the 9-month Maximum Window can not be changed or cancelled until 18 days after the reservation was made. Length Of Stay: A camping permit can only be issued for a maximum of two weeks. From July 1 through Labor Day, only 14 cumulative days of camping can be obtained at any campground. This is to ensure that new campers can enjoy their right to camp. Reservations may not be honored if you have more than 14 days cumulative camping between July 1 and Labor Day at the campground. Handicapped Access Sites: Sites that are accessible to the disabled are for mobility impaired people only. At least one member of the camping party staying on the site must be mobility impaired (for example, in a wheelchair or uses a walker) or the camping party will be turned away at the campground.

  • SPECIAL ALERT- Beginning this year, please leave your trailer boats at home!

    Many people do not realize that unwanted plants and other organisms can be moved by their trailered boats. You could spread these pests to Mongaup Pond, which in turn could infect Catskill Hatchery located 1.9 miles downstream from the pond. The hatchery uses water from the pond outlet, Mongaup Creek, as part of its water supply to raise 115,000 pounds of trout for stocking in state waters each year. If the hatchery became infected, undesirable organisms could be spread to waters being stocked throughout southeastern New York, or even statewide.

    If you bring any type of boat to Mongaup Pond, be sure it has been completely dry for several days before you arrive and can be hand launched. Please note we are also prohibiting Bait Fish use in Mongaup Pond to eliminate another possible means of infection.

    For additional information on invasive species and their control, go to www.ProtectYourWaters.net Or call your local DEC office.

    Thank you for helping to protect Mongaup Pond and Catskill Hatchery.
