Special Weather Statement issued May 23 at 2:33AM EDT by NWS Burlington VT
* The warm air temperatures today in the upper 60s to lower 70s may cause people to underestimate the dangers of the cold water temperatures. Lake and river temperatures are only in the upper 40s to mid 50s. * The cold water temperatures can quickly cause hypothermia to anyone immersed in the water. According to the US Coast Guard, when the water temperatures are below 60 degrees, the average submerged person could lose dexterity within minutes and be unable to accomplish simple tasks. Anyone on small boats, canoes or kayaks should plan accordingly if recreating today and use extreme caution to avoid this threat. Paddle smart from the start and always wear your life jacket!
About
Coles Creek State Park sits on the banks of Lake St. Lawrence in St. Lawrence County, providing a waterfront camping experience in New York's Thousand Islands region. The park offers approximately 228 campsites spread across multiple loops, with a mix of wooded and open sites near the swimming beach. Roughly 147 sites feature 30-amp electric hookups, making the campground suitable for both tent campers and RVs up to 40 feet. The park's location on Lake St. Lawrence makes it ideal for water-based recreation. A marina at the mouth of Coles Creek offers boat rentals, dockage, and a boat launch, while the lake provides excellent fishing opportunities. The swimming beach is staffed by lifeguards during season and includes a designated swimming area. Additional facilities include playgrounds, basketball and volleyball courts, baseball/softball fields, picnic pavilions available for rent, and food concessions. Each camping loop has its own restrooms, showers, and water fill-up stations, with a trailer dump station available for RV campers.
Directions
Located on Route 37 in Waddington, NY. The marina entrance is just north of the main park entrance at the mouth of Coles Creek.
