Reviews of Grass Point State Park (Park)

Terry Wells

Still kinda good

George McAloon

A great place to visit. Our children have enjoyed the beach for years. The water is not to deep and there is plenty of shade to sit in.

Sara Fulkerson

Excellent state park for camping. Super cheap and large RVs can easily fit in several sites - trees are well cut back. No hookups on most sites but the view is well worth it. Great playground and beach. Well kept bathrooms and grounds. We dry camp for 2 weeks here every year for the past 8 years.

So much fun!

Clean campground, easy access to the water, nice beach area, right in the heart of Alexandria Bay and Clayton areas.. Dump site is clean and easy to access.. Nice park! Mike Rolling Home RV Rentals

First time camping at Grass Point, and we were not disappointed!!! We found this place to be perfect and enjoyed our 3 night stay here. Amazingly beautiful small state park overlooking the islands on the St Lawrence River…Large campsites, pet friendly, brand new playground, cute beach and swimming area. Not only did we camp here but so did several family and friends that came up for our wedding. We were able to utilize one of the pavilions for a small wedding reception….the most gorgeous sunsets we have ever seen gave way for some amazing wedding photos….Will happily be revisiting!!!

Unbelievably peaceful & scenic; I was fortunate enough to stay the night and experience a tranquil morning of fishing on the lake with a few close friends. It is apparent that an emphasis is placed on the park's overall cleanliness (numerous custodians can be seen darting to a fro attending to various aspects of the park). If you are a fan of outdoors activities then a trip to the Grass Point State Park is a must.

A nice park on the St Lawrence river. Camping is a little cramped, but there's a nice community atmosphere.

What a beautiful, small State park. There is camping, a beach, playground, new beach house.

Our favorite spot to go camp in the islands. Nice little beach spot for the kids. Most of the camp sites are in eye sight of the water /boat docks.

Daniel DSM

It was a nice place to have a picnic and swim at the beach

Alan Semon

Arriving in the off season and looking for trails rather than a campsite means this park offered little. Took an overgrown footpath out to the point, but found views were not to be found.

Melissa M

Wonderfully maintained park. New playgrounds, large and clean washrooms, small swimming area. Plenty of socks, beautiful sunset location. 3 minute drive to a grocery store.

Lance Evans

Went for a picnic. Sat near the swim area. The view is fantastic. Great place to read and watch the River.

Rolling Home RV Rentals

Great family oriented park. Similar to Keewaydin but with a nice kid friendly beach, large clean sites and a really nice dump station. Love this park!

Aaron Burnham

Nice little park, very nice playground that's relatively new. Nice view of the river too.

Joseph Sheres

Wonderful park/campgrounds. Has a dock and boat ramp. Small shop near the water for small supplies, mostly non-boating stuff. No refueling area attached either. However a great spot for an RV or tent. Great area for families, wonderful night view of the stars and equally good scenery during the day. Decently busy river with plenty to watch. Decent fresh water fishing in the area. Beautiful sunsets and a bridge within view from some of the camping areas that lights up at night. Will happily be revisiting. Electrical sites are optional.

Michael Kruse (Mike)

Clean bathrooms and the park was kept up really well

Shane Theisz

It's nice place not cheap but nice

Matthew King

Camping is cozy, facilities are nice and clean. Not good for just a fishing location.

Patricia Maslar

Large campsites, brand new playground, cute beach and swimming area. A beautiful little state park.

Deb Guest

Small, very well maintained. Staff is very nice, friendly and helpful

Colleen Lemza

This was the cleanest bath house I have ever seen. Immaculate. Great job to the staff there!

Bonnie Dillenbeck

Great place to camp. The only thing is the best sites are non electric. We're limited how long we can stay.

Dan McBride

good place to launch. close parking to launch. nice docks

Karen Morse

Very much enjoyed our weekend

Amber Lusby

Nice.

laura hollenbeck

Nice campsites on the river. Kids loved the playground and beach. Only bad thing was the bees in the field and kids got stung crossing it. But everything else was great.

Sergeant Thomas

Some campsites were beautiful but there are a lot of small, packed sites.

Matt McLear

Nice clean park. Friendly staff.

Ben Geffken

Such an amazingly beautiful park overlooking the islands on the St Lawrence River. With two separate sections for electric and non-electric sites anyone will be pleased. Perhaps the only downfall is the spacing of the sites, but this is understandable given the size of the park. The staff is always nice, the facilities are new and clean, with a large playground, beach with lifeguards along a cove with no current.

Dan Cook

Small campground with great location for launching your boat onto the 1,000 Islands

Al Faller

Small, but nice park. The water levels were really high, causing the beach to pretty much disappear. However it wasn't very busy and the water was crystal clear, so we all had a good time.

Joanna Pahlow

Great location. Nice sites. Why no 5, well there are no trash cans except 2 dumpsters that you pretty much have to drive too. I get you want people to pack it out, but if you want a five... Oh and then there's the showers, clean, check, enough room, check, still no trash cans and those horrible push button showers with no water pressure and lukewarm water. If you want a 5...

Nick Pietropaolo

Spacious campsites but lack shade. Have boat docks you can rent out.

Great place it's on the river. Has some electric sights, dump station, picnic area and a small beach with a large play ground for the children. They do not have a camp supply store on sight but there is a Mobil gas station / bait shop and a Price Chopper Grocrey store among uncle sam boat tours near by in Alaxandria Bay. Clayton also has much to see as well with good restaurants to visit and Clayton boat tours as well.

Eugene Brownell

Very nice

Nicholas Shanley

Fun place to take the family

Louise Mesmer

My family rented the pavilion for a birthday party. Since the water level is receding the children were able to play on the slides etc. Some of the beach originally washed be away but Grass pointe restored some of it. Enough for the teens to escape to. A perfect day. Thanks Grass Point for all you had fixed and made the park very enjoyable.

Felicia Gustoso

Very clean, nice people, very safe and a beautiful spot to swim, enjoy boating or just to relax.

Charles Palmer

What a great state park. Perfect for a family camping trip.

Wheelocks Life

Great day use area! We were at another campground and ended up here each day.

Tim Rooney

Beach was very clean and lifeguards on duty. Playground was huge and lots of different things to play on

Cate Long

Wonderful state park right on the St Lawrence River.

Stephen Meyer

Unfortunately flooding on the St Lawrence has impacted the Marina, they haven't been able to put the docks in. But, still a great Park!

ben hottenstein

Great view. I am across the River from GPSP.

Kevin Wood

Super clean place and the park employees are super nice. The head grounds guy is very nice and professional at his job. Keep up the great work all

Sue L

Beautiful views of St. Lawrence River, very small sandy beach, great for small children. New bathroom pavilion and playground.

Karen Wells

We reserved a site on the water (52), but weeds and cattails blocked our view. Sites away from river front had great view, and would get those next time! Well maintained, and wonderful sites. Might try electric sites next time!

Hoodie Foodie

Beautiful state park with great views of the St. Lawrence River.

Charlotte Witchley

Beautiful and very clean

Yefim Nodelman

excellent place

Laurie Crommelin

One of the most amazing places in the area.

Kendall Stevens

Absolutely beautiful views, quiet, clean beach. Clear water and cool playground. Kids had a blast, and so did we.

Angela Jury

Beautiful park! We purchase a pass every year!

Susan Breed

Beautiful scenery, pet friendly.

Molly Kolb

Nothing for older kids to do. Small and shallow swimming area. Kids weren't allowed to use their snorkel. It was nice that the parking was right next to the beach. Plenty of tables. Nice grassy area and playground. Clean bathroom.

Erik Rik

I liked this park better than other area Parks. The fishing is poor, however.

Kellie M. Nelson

Loved it! We had a nice picnic lunch then walked down to the water and played on the playground. We were just kids again. Very nice place. Wished I camped it's a perfect place to stay.

Nathan's Mom Iswatching

a perfect place for walking the beach and trails after camping season. take your trash home as there are no garbage cans. such a pretty place with views of ships in the channel.

Ashley Learned

Pros: nice playground and swimming area. Cons: not the cleanest. Showers are stahls that cover from above head to ankles. Gets very buggy in bathrooms. Campsites are small. No place for cover if it rains besides bathrooms.

H Y Cheng

Gorgeous harbor view. With the wind caressing and blowing your face softly. A smell from the ocean makes me felt a sense of freedom. I love it. It was so great. A highly recommended place that cannot be missed in your life. If you like the national scenery and wildlife, it will be an amazing piece of land for you to explore.

Jocasa Relf

Great time on the river Saturday

jarod musser

So cool being in waterfront here and watching all the ships passing through. Our site said not water view, but it was 100%. Maybe cat tails grow taller later.Easy access to everything around. Wasn't to buys. Nice wide open area for kids to play ball and meet people. Great fishing dock. Clean bathrooms and dump station. Wanted to be on Wellesley Island but after checking out the campgrounds there (some of them), was much happier at Grass Point. Definitely check out the boat tours. Well worth it! Tried to rent boat here but it was to late in day. Close at 430. $35 an hour for a 16' Lund with 20HP seemed pretty decent price. Cool place !

Lindsay Foote

So the amenities are really nice - playground is awesome and beach swimming is great. Dock is close by and Marina store has ice cream bars and snacks. Boats weren’t available cause of Covid but prices are good if they were renting. Took away a star because tent sites are small and not secluded from each other in any way. We had site 53. Directly across from the bathrooms makes it super bright at night which isn’t great. Also I’m pretty sure there is a huge raccoon den right at the edge of the water and dude is ballsy cause we hadn’t even finished packing everything up for the night and he was tearing at it. I would say there is no reason to get a water site because you can’t see over all the reeds or fish from your site. We were also slammed with mass clusters of mayfly babies off the water.

Linda G

Great price. Very nice sites with electric for 28 bucks. Nice water fill area and great area to empty and wash out tank. Park is on the bay and beautiful sunsets

Don Tarantino

Very peaceful!! Beautiful!! Very clean!!

Sean Kaercher

Great park. Clean right on the water. Easy to access boat launch. Great price.

Christine Darling

This is our 3rd or 4th trip here, great campground, bathrooms are close and clean. Showers are clean and nice considering its a camp ground. Water for showers could be a couple degrees warmer but it's not ice and it's clean so how can you really complain. Grounds are clean and nice, staff is friendly. Views are beautiful. Will return again like always! Prefer this park above any!!

Jim Milliman

Yard needs mowing around parking for pavilion.... mold on shower curtain.... tall grass around rocks...cold water in wife's girls shower room 1 night , guy's were nice and warm......... beach was beautiful, sun sets are beautiful.... docks are clean.... been coming here for the last 20 plus years and will continue to go there.... only this year is a little disappointing

greatwhite grower86

kristina stanton

Just stayed here for a night. It was suppose to be two, but flooding in our area limited one of our nights. But anyways, this was my first camping trip with just my 8 year old and not the bf and I'm impressed. The camp sites are smaller than some I've been at if you're on the inside of the circle with spots behind you, but im not sure if that's because our neighbor parked too far over or not. We came with another family, and her site was on the outer side of the loop with no one behind her and that was perfect. Site 27. The sites arent very private at all, so definitely go for the outer ones on the loops Everything was within perfect walking distance. The bathrooms look a ways on the map, but they arent bad at all. And they were very clean. Especially the shoes. Which I've stayed at some pretty sketchy ones lol. The park looked really nice, but we never got a chance to try it out. The beach was nice, but you're not allowed to wear nose covered goggles. I've also stayed at enough campsites that noise, when it's bedtime or early in the morning, is awful. This place was very quiet. It's also a close drive to Alexandria Bay where we did Boldt Castle

Jacob Riesenberg

It's one of my favorite state parks I've ever been to!

sean kaercher

Beautiful views of the river. Well maintained.
