Brookwood RV Resort.

Route 9N (133 State Highway 9N) in Ticonderoga, on the corridor between the north end of Lake George at Hague and the south end of Lake Champlain at Ticonderoga. That's the right address for travelers who want both lakes inside one base.

Three levels of camping: full-hookup RV sites with WiFi and the standard fire ring and picnic table, tent sites with the same hookups for power and water, and Adirondack-style camping cabins for groups that don't want to bring or rent gear. The cabins are basic, not glamping, which is honest for the price point.

The property runs a country store on site for the things you forgot, plus live local-band concerts on Saturday evenings from July through August, which is the main social hook. The Ticonderoga Paper Mill shutdown brings a discounted rate window for mill workers; outside that, this is a destination campground for Fort Ticonderoga visitors and the south Champlain region.
