This was the first year tompkins campground was open past labor day. It did not disappoint. We were in coverage and the complete cove was booked. Where sometimes during the summer you see spaces empty. It was such a great time spent outdoors for fall. We truly hope tompkins campground can be open in years to come past labor day.

Sites are spacious. Grass is cut and sites are very clean. The staff is very nice and helpful. Maintenance is very helpful and very quick to repair any problems

We LOVED camping this late in the season. I hope that it is something that you'd consider continuing next season.

@NancyH8034224 · Camped on Oct 5, 2025 at Campsite #41
It was wonderful, Perfect time of the year. Leaves changing, geese on the lake. Please stay open for September and October next year.
@BradR2335021 · Camped on Oct 3, 2025 at Campsite #33
Hope that you keep the campground open that late in the season or even a little later in the year. Always looking for places to go in October and November.

Wonderful campground So glad it has stayed open into October! We love fall camping
@christineB9533 · Camped on Oct 2, 2025 at Campsite #23
No Verizon cell service at campsite #23. Have to drive to boat ramp for spotty service. Lots of dogs barking the weekend we stayed. We will probably not return. Ives Run is a much better campground.

Was so happy this campground opened after initially stating they would be closed for the season. One of our favorites. Wishing they would state open later every season as they did this year.
@KellyG7782870 · Camped on Oct 2, 2025 at Campsite #41

Really enjoyed my time there
@LindaJFF276FDF · Camped on Sep 26, 2025 at Campsite #84
What a great campground. The weather was perfect with very few campsites available. Host are friendly and plenty of firewood available. Thank you for staying open later this season.
@christine25361 · Camped on Sep 25, 2025 at Campsite #22
We love this campground. Always clean and quiet, it's a lovely place to stay.
@DavidS3927304 · Camped on Sep 23, 2025 at Campsite #74
Beautiful area, quiet and very nice sites.
@HanselGED77249 · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #T
Amazing morning view of the lake spots are a bit close to each other but not too bad, my only complaint is that there were a lot of people with dogs from the tv side that walked to the tent side and did not clean up after their dogs
@MelindaG9E461A · Camped on Sep 19, 2025 at Campsite #51
Loved camping here
@RichardD237266 · Camped on Sep 18, 2025
Big lake, nice campground, most sites have electric and water, some with sewer. Clean bathrooms. A few hiking trails. About 35 min drive to Wellsboro .
@DennisM8587674 · Camped on Sep 15, 2025 at Campsite #52
beautiful area. Bench sites are wonderful. quiet most of the time. sites are large and spaced nicely. waterfront sites are especially nice. campground hosts were out and about, cleaning sites up, even blowing leaves off of parking pads. our site was clean and they are very well maintained. will definitely camp here again. no issues parking our 5th wheel on the site. plenty of room, no issues leveling.
@RogerF3989155 · Camped on Sep 14, 2025 at Campsite #37
Tompkins is a beautiful campground. We stayed in three different sites because of a mess up by me. But every site was nice. Our last one, #5, we got pelted with acorns. Maybe not best for September. Beautiful lake, nice walks, campsites spaced well. Would go back for sure!
@DavidC2858387 · Camped on Sep 13, 2025 at Campsite #9
Spacious wooded campsites near a beautiful lake. The host was very helpful. Cell coverage was poor with Verizon so it helps to have a reservation before arrival. Nice bathroom facilities.
@EishaC480BEE0E · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #45
We very much enjoyed our stay. Bathrooms were clean and our site was well maintained. We visit the lake often but havent camped before and we were very pleased to finally give it a go. We will definitely be back!
@VivekD88800484 · Camped on Sep 12, 2025 at Campsite #P09
Great place to camp. It is about 7-8 minutes hike one way from hike-in campground parking. Hauling your gear up and down from the parking can be a pain but the site is absolutely worth it. I would recommend having a trolley to haul your stuff. We stayed 2 nights and absolutely loved it. Will definitely return. RV and main campground is 2 minutes drive from hike-in campground parking.
@VaughnUDB9A153 · Camped on Sep 11, 2025 at Campsite #41
One of the most beautiful and well cared for campgrounds we have stayed at. We would love to be able to stay here through Oct.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
