To the owners & staff at Hartwick Highlands Campground,Just a short note to say thanks. When you put out the welcome mat every day, you leave nothing left behind. From the help on the initial call to make a reservation to the heartfelt waves when leaving, this campground is top notch. Apparently, the letter “H” isn’t only the first letter in the campground’s name, it stands for the unprecedented “HOSPITALITY” that they offer. From the help getting in a campsite LONG after dark to the assistance with all the local attractions, these folks do it all and then some. The only negative that I have is that I only had a long weekend to spend here. This is probably one of the nicest campgrounds that my family and I have ever been to. But as Arnold said in the movies, “I’ll be back”. And as for Jennifer in the office, if there is a national campground association and they are ever in need of an ambassador, you’ve got my vote!!!!! Again, thanks for all the help and hospitality (there’s those “H’s” again).The Farrell
Unlike the vast majority of campgrounds – the designers had, from the beginning a vision – A design that would join comfort with nature and the natural beauty of the area they selected for their campground. One sees in a half mile or so of a road into a deep wood, composed mainly of thick pines and maples, the possibility of bike trails, walking trails of varying difficulty, and a natural experience bounded by Canadian geese honking and caroling at a nearby pond. And whitetail deer spooked by your presence as you walk, however quietly. At night billions of stars and the northern lights sparkle overhead. An occasional bird flits here and there.
In the morning one alights from tent or trailer onto a soft bed of chipped wood to a clear dawn, fresh air and sunlight filtering through the trees. Mornings are crisp, 50 degrees or so, for the temperature falls rapidly at night. Neighbors are clustered nearby – but not so close to disturb your privacy. Clean air, bright and clean bathrooms, everything done in taste. Planned for you as though for them – for they are campers too!
