FINGER LAKES REGION
SAMPSON STATE PARK
Encompassing more than 2,000 acres on the eastern shore of Seneca Lake, including
300 feet of sandy shoreline beach, Sampson State Park features camping and boating
as the primary recreational activities. The majority of the park's campsites are electric.
The marina has overnight boat slips and a large multiple ramp launch site. A key feature
of the park is the beautiful view of the lake at its center. Facilities include courts for
tennis, horseshoe, basketball and volleyball, a swimming beach with nearby playground,
a low impact fitness circuit and a scenic lakeshore trail. Other popular activities include
fishing, bicycling, jogging, geocaching and nature watching. The park also has a proud
military history serving as both a U.S. Naval Training Station during World War II and
an Air Force Base during the Korean War. Veterans from both eras created a museum in
the former brig/stockade to interpret these periods of the park's history.
