THOUSAND ISLANDS REGION
HIGLEY FLOW STATE PARK
Higley Flow State Park is nestled among the Adirondack foothills on the picturesque
Raquette River. Spacious campsites, separated from neighbors by pine trees, abound
in the park. The terrain is hilly and heavily-wooded and there is a sandy beach on the
reservoir of the Raquette River and hiking trails. The scenic river is ideal for canoeing
and fishing. The Beaver Pond Nature Trail has interpretive signs that describe the six
distinct habitats through which the trail passes. A new playground near the beach
offers fun for younger campers.
KEEWAYDIN STATE PARK
Keewaydin State Park is on the St. Lawrence River, offering excellent boating, fishing,
and during the winter, ice fishing. The sheltered marina provides dock space for
seasonal and transient visitors. The park's campsites overlook the river and the terrain
includes steep, rocky outcroppings between the campsites and the shoreline, providing
vantage points for watching the ocean-going vessels traversing the river. The popular
family destination has a swimming pool and picnic areas. New for the 2014 boating
season is a bathroom/shower facility with a glass-enclosed pavillion.
