Camp near Whiteface, the Ausable River and Lake Placid.

First opened in 1926, Wilmington Notch Campground is located in picturesque birch and pine grove formed by glacial forces at the base of legendary Whiteface Mountain, home of two winter Olympics. It contains 54 campsites and offers hot showers, flush toilets, a trailer dump station, a recycling center, and a picnic area.
We love that it allows campers to immerse themselves in nature, but is also close to many of the Adirondacks’ manmade highlights.
