There is access to my family farm 100+ acres where you can enjoy swimming, Kayaking, fishing, walking through trails, playing with the family chickens, and strolling through the grape vines, apple orchard, and Christmas trees farm.

The Swim Pond at Olin Springs

3 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Mount Vision, NY

The property was historically used for milk cows grazing and the farmer would put the milk jugs in the main emergent spring to keep cold. Federal wetlands in the back are protected from adding to or changing, but can be explored in your wellies! There was nothing on the land when purchased in 2018. We wanted to create our own lake front property for our retirement. The man made pond is blue clay, spring fed and holds water year round. Is was stocked with large mouth bass and channel catfish in 2020. Please, only keep fish over 12 inches. Learn more about this land: Camp in the meadows or down by the pond. Also a small stream and wetlands to explore. All campers can pick where they want to set up camp.

The best camping near Delta Lake State Park guide

Overview

About

Delta Lake is located on a peninsula near aptly named Westernville. The lake formed in 1908 when engineers dammed up a river to supply water for a barge canal. Visitors can enjoy swimming in the summer and fishing year-round.

The swimming portion of the lake is isolated from the rest of the reservoir. This makes for a safer swimming environment.

Rent a boat from a nearby marina for a day out on the water. Cast your line out for trout, pike, bullhead, bass, and perch. Take your haul back to your campground for dinner. Hikers navigate the wooded and relatively flat trails. In winter, these turn into cross country ski trails. You can also ice fish in winter.

The large campground has 101 sites for tents and RVs. A few tent campsites sit within feet of the water. Gentle waves hitting the shore rock you to sleep. Cooing frogs or insects hum their nightly tunes to sing a lullaby for your slumber.
