Jacques Cartier State Park

Experience the allure of Jacques Cartier State Park, where the tranquil St. Lawrence River meets a family-friendly campground offering diverse outdoor activities. This picturesque park, just west of Morristown, New York, combines the charm of waterfront camping with amenities like a sandy swimming beach, boat docks, and wide-open picnic areas.

The campground features 123 sites, including 34 with electric hookups, catering to both tent and RV campers. Sites along the waterfront provide stunning views but tend to have less privacy, while those set deeper in the wooded areas offer a more secluded retreat. Guests can enjoy well-maintained facilities, including restrooms with showers, a playground, and a boat launch. The sheltered bay offers calm waters ideal for swimming, kayaking, and fishing, with seasonal lifeguard presence ensuring safety during peak summer months. For anglers, the river provides excellent opportunities to catch smallmouth bass and northern pike.

Located in the Thousand Islands region, Jacques Cartier State Park is a gateway to natural beauty and recreational activities. Within a short drive, visitors can explore nearby parks, charming small towns, or cruise the scenic waterways. Whether planning a weekend getaway or a longer vacation, this campground is a fantastic destination for nature lovers and families alike.
