Rogers Rock is a large facility of 332 campsites, including 11 on the Waltonian Islands, reachable only by boat. Additionally, the park has two group campgrounds that accommodate between 35 and 60 people. Although no electrical hookups for RVs are available, many other amenities are on hand, including picnic tables and fireplaces, hot showers, a trailer dumping station, a picnic pavilion and a sand beach for use through Labor Day when a lifeguard is on duty. Firewood restrictions apply.
Lake George is beautiful, busy and popular. Boats large and small ply its waters. Rogers Rock offers a boat launch and offshore mooring buoys. Bring your fishing tackle to go after any of pike, perch, bullhead, lake trout and brown trout, or smallmouth and largemouth bass. A fishing license (not available at the campground) is required. If you'd prefer to stay on dry land, there are many hiking trails nearby.
Length of stay at Rogers Rock is limited to 14 nights, with no more than six people and two vehicles occupying a single site. Group camping is by paid-in-advance reservation only. Observe quiet time between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m.; the campground staff cautions that these hours are strictly enforced. Portable generators may be used only between 9 a.m. and 11 a.m., and again between 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. Build fires only in established fireplaces. Dogs must be leashed and are not permitted in buildings or on the beach; dogs are not permitted on the island campsites.
Also located at the north end of Lake George is the village of Hague, offering shopping, dining and vacation rentals. Six miles north of Rogers Rock is historic Fort Ticonderoga. The site of five battles during two wars, Ticonderoga was variously occupied by the French, who built it as Fort Carillon, British and ultimately the Americans. If history lessons aren't part of your agenda, you may enjoy a round of golf at the lovely Ticonderoga Country Club, which is open to the public.
