Description

Covering 318 acres in Jefferson County, New York, Westcott Beach State Park is a waterfront park offering easy access to the refreshing waters of Lake Ontario. It's a popular family camping spot with plenty of recreational activities on offer, but the best part of all is that it's also dog-friendly!

Tucked away among wooded hills and open, grassy meadows, Westcott Beach State Park sits at the lake's eastern end. There's a long and sandy swimming beach for those looking to cool off in the summer heat, as well as a boat launch ramp and small marina. Excellent black bass fishing is on offer, so don't forget your fishing gear if you're keen to wet a line!

Other park features include a children's playground, picnic areas, and a small network of hiking trails. And if you visit during the winter months, those hiking trails are also perfect for cross-country skiing.

The 154-site family campground offers tent and trailer camping, with campsite fees ranging from $18 to $28 per night. The campsites are located on a bluff overlooking the lake, and the views out over the water will have you reaching for your camera more than once.

Dogs are more than welcome to join you in the campground, but please note that a two-pet maximum applies to all sites that allow pets. You'll also need to provide proof of your dog's current rabies vaccination, and keep them leashed and under your control at all times. As always, it's up to you to be a responsible owner and properly disposeĀ  of your pet's waste.

Westcott Beach State Park is a pawesome spot for a quiet camping weekend or a longer family vacation. You'll find no shortage of things to see and do during your visit, and you can rest assured that your dog will love every second!
