Round Pond Recreation Area

Gravel lots throughout, mostly level with water and electric hookups. All sites are back-in, with the electric hookup on the passenger side, but the water on the driver's side. Picnic table and fire ring provided. Roads throughout the RV/cabin area are narrow, one-way, but navigated without much difficult in ClassC. Laundry and bathrooms within short walking distance. Dump station available at entrance to camp/cottage area. No T-Mobile cellular coverage, but marginal(140Mbps) Starlink coverage. After hours sign in package at the camp office, and caretaker at facility for assistance. Tripped the old 30amp service with microwave and coffee pot. Somewhat off the beaten track from interstate and state routes, but nice drive by the firing ranges and training areas for the Military Academy. Gorgeous scenery on the drive to the campground, as well as within the facility.

We are full time RVers and visit famcamps all over the US. We usually really love the opportunity to be able to stay on them. But this might be the worst one unfortunately. The approach is dangerous; there’s no other way to say it. Be very very careful going up the approach!!!! The directions are ok. We were able to make a reservation and the girls inside the office were nice and accommodating. The locations are not great and you need to be an expert driver to get the RV where it needs to be. No sewer but the bathrooms were clean with hot water. We went to New York City for the day taking a train, which was really fun! We also did the tour of West Point which we highly recommend! Overall, we wouldn’t go back to this famcamp.

Greetings! Such an, yet MWR continues to run it into the ground. Rates continue to go up, yet the Campground is run down. Stayed here twice past 2 years very little maintenance done, sites are in poor condition, Very Noteworthy.... during cadet graduation, military has less of priority than parents of the cadets who aren't military... Most sites un-level, none with sewer, however they will provide a honey bucket once a week for an additional fee, water pressure is marginal at best..., So sad to see a military campground in this condition.

Had a really nice campsite. Our purpose of the trip was to visit Old Rhineback Aerodrome and see the air show and museum, the campsite we had was on the opposite side of the lake and there were 3 sites in our grouping, but it was still nice and private. There were no problems with the water or electric and the dump station was easy to access. We were able to go down and see a concert at Trophy Point, even though it was windy and cold, it was nice. This a a true gem and I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Overall a very nice campground. The sites are roomy with power and water. The bathrooms were clean and the laundry was decent with one machine out of order. Very convenient to West Point, NYC and the hudson valley area. It's a quiet and peaceful place at a very reasonable cost. Cell reception at the back of the campground is bad but the sites closer to the office have a decent signal.

Have stayed at Round Pond many times. Great location and setting. The main two drawbacks are lack of sewer hook up and poor cell reception. If you are down near the bathhouse you will have very poor cell reception. It is a great place to stay.

Beautiful place to camp. Easy to make reservations. Check in was smooth. We booked a couple nights staying in site #9 by the bath house. It was very nice and we had a great view of the lake. We enjoyed it so much we decided to extend our stay. We moved to site #C16. It was much more secluded and surrounded by trees - very beautiful. I will say the higher up we were, the more we were able to hear the firing range. We didn't hear it at all while staying by the bathhouse. The mosquitos were much worse too up in the foliage. I wish I had a screened in tent to be able to enjoy the outdoors more. The temps were wonderful, the views and area is just gorgeous. My only negative is it's not located on the base and anyone can access the area. So we had to lock everything up each night and when we left the site. When we are on a base, we don't need to worry about locking everything up. We did like that we were very close to West Point and enjoyed exploring the amazing campus. So much history and beauty. We were surprised how much we liked it there and have already made another reservation to return next month.

Stayed here for 7 nights and had an good experience overall. The reservation was easy to get and was able to work with staff to adjust by several days at about 3 weeks out. The entrance is up a steep hill but a properly sized tow vehicle should not have any problems. The road is a bit narrow at places so meeting another RV would be an issue. There are several places where the trees are low or hanging into the road where you will scrape if not careful. Initially, we were assigned site C5 that is in the loop behind the dump/bath house. We were directed to drive around this back loop which turned out to be nearly impassable with a 37’ fifth wheel. There are very low overhanging trees and large rocks along the loop. I badly scratched our rig and nearly lost our sewer outlet on a rock. Turns out our rig would not even fit in the assigned site. The staff put us into overflow for the night, which is right next to the office and has electric and water, and found us a better site. The rest of the stay was very enjoyable. There was not much ATT service while on the back side of the pond near the bath house. However, we could get a couple of bars when we walked to the top of the ridge on the other side of the pond. I would stay here again when visiting the area, but I’ll make sure to avoid that back loop.

A great place to get off the road and really relax, clean, secure, and very easy to access. We pull a 35 foot travel trailer, and there are a few of the back area sites where it gets a bit tight... main access road, and route to dump station is no problem at all. Stop here multiple times a year ... love and enjoy the area. Base facilities (commissary, gas, etc.) just a few minutes away. Have a good time!! * I must agree with the comments on the entrance road... a very steep drive up, then down into campground (basically driving up and over a ridge)...so keep in low gear, and take your time ... not too big of a deal :-)
