Evangola State Park

This campground is not far off the NY STate Thruway and easy to finds. There is no road noise from the Thruway, but a little from the main road.

These are open spacious sites overlooking Lake Erie. Most sites do not have a lake view. You cannot access the lake from the campground, but need to trek a good half mile or more along a bike path to the public beach. Unfortunately many of the Ash trees are dying and so the sites in the middle don't have shade any more. Your best bet for shade is camping on the outside of the loop, especially on the West side. The gravel pads could use refreshing. You don't want to park off the grass if there has been rain, since the ground is rather soft. There is electric at the rv sites (30 amp and 50 amp) and water spigots dispersed around the loop. The dump station is nearby.

There is a brand new bath house as well as some older ones, but very clean.

The tenting sites are rather odd. You need to off load your car at your site and then park in a parking lot. Doesn't make it easy to keep things in your car for safety. The sites have very little shade. It appears this has been remodeled but not the best in my mind for tenters.

The sites cost more on the weekends, more money for 50 amp, a $5 fee for out of staters, and $2.75 office fee for non-reservation
