About
Blueberry Patch Campground is a small, semi-primitive campground located along Picnic Area Road (County Route 2) in the Finger Lakes National Forest of New York. The campground takes its name from the large blueberry patch adjacent to the camping area, where visitors can gather both high bush and low bush blueberries when in season. The campground offers nine sites available on a first-come, first-served basis. Each site includes a fire pit, tent pad, picnic table, and parking for up to two vehicles. Two handicap-accessible vault toilets serve the campground. Note that no potable water is available, so campers must bring their own supply. Designed for tent camping and small campers under 24 feet in length, this is not suitable for large RVs. The maximum stay is 14 days within a 30-day period. Dogs are welcome but must remain leashed at all times. The $15 per night fee is payable at the self-pay station upon arrival.
