” (Daydream Campground) was exactly what we wanted for a trip to the Watkins Glen area with our 2 grandchildren. The kids enjoyed walking to the dock and around Weller Island. The fire pit was perfect for nightly s’mores ! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! “

“A hidden gem in the Finger Lakes.”
We’ve stayed at larger campgrounds, but Daydream’s smaller size and attention to detail made all the difference. The quiet hours were respected, and we felt like we had our own peaceful corner of the lake.

We used Daydream as our home base for exploring Watkins Glen and the Finger Lakes region. The location is perfect, and coming back to a quiet, well-maintained campground each evening was exactly what we needed.

Designed for Families, Built for Connection
Daydream Campground was created with family in mind. It began as a passion project by the previous owners, who thoughtfully cleaned up the land and shaped it into a place for their own family and friends to gather, relax, and enjoy the lake. Today, we continue that vision—sharing Daydream with families, couples, and outdoor-minded travelers looking for a calm, well-kept place to slow down, spend time together, and enjoy simple lake living.
