Campgrounds near Forestville, New York
Forestville sits in Chautauqua County a few miles inland from Lake Erie, positioning RV travelers between two state-park campgrounds on the lakeshore and private parks in the rolling farmland to the south. The area combines beach access, wooded sites, and easy highway reach via Route 5 and the I-90 Thruway, all within a short drive of Dunkirk and Fredonia for groceries, fuel, and dump-station needs.
To the north, Evangola State Park offers wooded sites with beach access on Lake Erie. To the west, Lake Erie State Park sits on high bluffs above the water in the region's grape belt. Firemans Fraternity Campground and Top-A-Rise Camping Area serve travelers looking for smaller, private-park stays closer to Forestville.
Farther south, Pope Haven Campground pulls RVers into Cattaraugus County with full-hookup sites and family programming. Together these options cover tent camping, powered RV sites, cabins, and yurts.
Things to do near Forestville
Lake Erie is the anchor. Evangola State Park has an arc-shaped natural sand beach roughly a mile long backed by low shale cliffs, plus nature trails, a disc golf course, tennis and basketball courts, and a nature center. Lake Erie State Park adds bluff-top views along three-quarters of a mile of shoreline, a swimming beach, an 18-hole disc golf course, and hiking trails through the eastern part of the park.
Inland, the Concord grape belt runs through Chautauqua County, with wineries and farm stands along the Chautauqua Wine Trail. The Amish Trail south toward Randolph offers baked goods, quilts, and furniture shops. Cattaraugus Creek is a popular fishing and paddling corridor for anglers passing through the area.

Camping season on the Lake Erie shore runs roughly mid-April through late October at Evangola State Park, with Lake Erie State Park generally opening a bit later, from mid-May to mid-October. Day-use areas of both state parks remain open year-round for hiking, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling. Private parks such as Pope Haven Campground operate on a similar seasonal schedule.
July and August bring the warmest, driest stretch and the biggest crowds. Weekends at Evangola and Lake Erie State Park fill quickly, so mid-week arrivals see more site choice. June and September are quieter, with lake temperatures still swimmable in early September.
Winter shifts the character entirely. Lake-effect snow off Lake Erie is heavy in this corridor, and campgrounds close. Shoulder seasons in April and late October can bring cold rain and wind off the lake, so RVers should plan for hookups and heat.
How to book
Evangola State Park and Lake Erie State Park both reserve through the New York State Parks system on ReserveAmerica. Bookings open up to nine months in advance on a rolling window, and same-day reservations are accepted online or by phone until 3 p.m. on the day of arrival. Walk-ins are permitted on campsites only.
Private parks handle their own bookings. Pope Haven Campground takes reservations directly by phone or through its website. Firemans Fraternity Campground and Top-A-Rise Camping Area also book directly with the operators. For summer weekends, reserve well ahead; state park sites and popular private full-hookup sites go fast.
What to expect
Expect a mix of powered and non-electric sites at the state parks, with amperage varying by loop. Lake Erie State Park offers 81 electric sites ranging from 15 to 50 amps plus a non-electric loop, and Evangola State Park has three loops with different electrical options along with yurts and a cabin. Both parks have showers and a dump station; water is typically at shared spigots or fill stations rather than individual sites.
Pope Haven Campground provides full-hookup sites and standard private-park amenities such as laundry and a camp store. Cell coverage is generally reliable near Route 5 and I-90, thinner in the hills to the south. Current proof of rabies inoculation is required at check-in at New York state park campgrounds; metal tags are not accepted.
