Long Point State Park is situated on the east side of Cayuga Lake on a V-shaped spit of land extending out into the water. Located just south of the charming village of Aurora and near a number of excellent wineries, the park is mid-distance between the northern and southern ends of the lake.
Location: The park is located on Cayuga Lake and is part of the Finger Lakes. This particular lake stretches nearly forty miles to its northern outlet at the Montezuma National Wildlife Refuge. It is the longest, widest and has the largest drainage basin of the eleven Finger Lakes.
Recreation: Principally a day-use park in a residential area, Long Point offers a stony beach, a supervised swimming area, a bathhouse, a playground, a boat launch and temporary docking area with two concrete ramps, a gazebo, and a picnic area with tables and grilles.
Nearby: Fillmore Glen State Park, Buttermilk Falls State Park, Robert H. Treman State Park, Allan H. Treman State Marine Park, Cayuga Lake State Park, and Taughannock Falls State Park are all nearby

SWIMMING: Each year the campground makes every effort to provide safe swimming opportunities by testing the water and by keeping the swimming areas staffed with lifeguards. Please be aware that if the safety of our swimmers is compromised due to lack of lifeguard coverage or water quality issues, swimming will be prohibited. Swimming cannot be a guaranteed activity; therefore, we cannot offer refunds on camping stays. We apologize for this inconvenience as it may occur with little advance notice.
