About this campground
Nestled on a scenic peninsula jutting into the pristine waters of Seneca Lake, Lodi Point Marine State Park offers an intimate escape where water enthusiasts and nature lovers converge. This charming lakeside retreat serves as both a gateway to aquatic adventures and a peaceful haven for picnickers seeking respite beneath towering shade trees. Whether you're launching your boat for a day on the water, casting a line from the shoreline, or simply savoring a lakeside meal with loved ones, this modest yet captivating park delivers the simple pleasures of life on the water.
The campground facilities primarily cater to day-use activities rather than overnight camping.
Weather and SeasonsExperience the dramatic beauty of four distinct seasons at Lodi Point, where nature's moods paint an ever-changing canvas. Winter transforms the park into a crystalline wonderland, with snow-dusted shores and frozen vistas creating a serene, contemplative atmosphere. As spring awakens the landscape, summer arrives with warm, languid days perfect for water activities, though the humid air occasionally gives way to refreshing afternoon showers that dance across the lake's surface. Each season brings its own magic to this waterfront sanctuary.

Natural Features and SceneryPerched on a distinctive finger of land that reaches boldly into Seneca Lake's sapphire waters, Lodi Point offers a front-row seat to nature's theater. Gentle lake breezes whisper through the canopy of mature trees that dot the landscape, providing welcome shade and a sense of timeless tranquility. The park's unique flat stone beaches invite exploration, their smooth surfaces warmed by the sun and perfect for launching kayaks or simply sitting to watch the play of light on water. This natural peninsula creates an almost island-like atmosphere, surrounded by the vast expanse of one of New York's most beautiful lakes.
Geological RegionLodi Point Marine State Park sits proudly within the legendary Finger Lakes region, a geological masterpiece carved by ancient glaciers over millennia. As part of this celebrated landscape surrounding Seneca Lake—the deepest of the Finger Lakes—the park showcases the region's remarkable natural heritage. The area's glacial origins have created not just stunning scenery, but a rich ecosystem where diverse plant and animal communities thrive in the unique microclimate formed by the deep, temperature-moderating waters of this magnificent lake.
