Branches of Niagara Campground & Resort

This place is pretty unreal. We took our 3 kids on a 2 week roadtrip around the country in July and this was our furthest point from home (home being Arizona). Niagara Falls was a last minute add-​on to the trip but was so worth it as my wife and kids had never seen it. This campground rounded out the visit well!
Having the number of activities they have explains the high cost, as this was by far the most expensive campground on our trip (we stayed at about 8 over the 2 weeks). But it also was by far the nicest. Sites had ample room… not spread out like a state park, but not crammed in like a KOA. The sandboxes, playground, beach, pool, etc were all fantastic. Just a very well maintained facility. The cabins looked really cute… I’d totally consider them if we didn’t have our camper.
All in all I think it was worth the stop. If I was staying in the area for a week, I’d have to really consider the cost because it would add up, but on the other hand I guess you are getting resort style amenities while still getting to use your own camper, so there’s something to be said for that. But definitely a 5-​star establishment.

We travel quite a bit; trailer, tent, or hotel. The trip to Niagara Falls was great. In large part to the BON campgrounds. We didn’t realize until we pulled in that it was a Cristian based camp, but it was a beautiful place with friendly and helpful staff. The grounds, bathrooms and all were very clean (even periodically sprayed air fresher in the bathrooms). Small camp store had a variety of items, there was a large assortment of activities for kids. Camp was both kid and pet friendly. Plus we had some fun too. The extras are zip lines, canoe/​kayak, laser tag and even a family style peddle bike. All reasonable. Niagara is close (10 min.) I recommend trying Tim Hortons if you havent. Yummy doughnuts and coffee. The pool at camp is smaller than it appears in the pics but that was the only thing that I can complain about (camp related). There was all types of people there from all walks of life, we did encounter a large group that was rude and inconsiderate but nothing to be done for bad manners. I would go back to BON in a heart beat! That’s what a good campground should be.

The place is great for family fun; tons of kid activities (most are free of charge). The cabins are nice; the tent spaces aren’t that big & they fill up quickly; when we arrived, there were no empty spots; glad they reserve by #‘s.
The boat rental keeps overselling/​over booking so expect a little aggivation (don’t reserve then change plans because you may not get one in the end, as they are always on demand).
The bath & showers are not big or many so expect a wait on that but despite that they were nice and clean & campers were polite when waiting. They even had a communal laundry, kitchen sink and microwave to use if need be. I want to come back again for sure

We stayed at Branches as a launching point to Niagara Falls. The location worked very well; within 10 minutes to the Falls. The grounds and facilities are very well kept. Lots of fun activity for kids. Putt putt, swimming, bball, vball, zip line, canoes. Unfortunately, it rained most of the time we were there. The office staff were very helpful and courteous. The washhouse was very clean and well maintained.

We rented a cabin for a few days and had a great time. They had a ton of activities for our girls (ages 4 and 7). You can purchase an activity pass that includes everything and is well worth the price. Everyone who worked there was extremely nice and great with the kids. The cabin was super clean as were the community bathrooms. We will be back and would highly recommend the camp.

Stayed here for 3 nights. Some of us were in an RV, and others in cabins. The campground is ok, but just ok, when you consider the premium prices they charge. The RV sites are on the cramped side, with gravel and a picnic table. The impression we had was that someone bought an old campground invested in it, and was trying to fix it up. The cabins were new in appearance, and were clean as were the facilities. The high prices charged must be for the proximity to Niagara Falls, not for the amenities, or lack thereof, at the campground. I am not familiar with other campgrounds in the area (there is a KOA very nearby), so I can’t make a comparison. Basically, you will have clean bathrooms if you need them, a smaller type site for your RV, or a pleasant clean cabin. You will pay top dollar, and you won’t have cable TV, or garbage collection. They have a small zip line that will give you a quick ride over part of the pond. The kids will enjoy it, if you don’t mind paying $ 15 a ride. This is not a bad campground, just not worth what they charge. Next time I come here, I will try a different campground.

Nicest campground ever. Make reservations. We were passing thru, stayed only one night, would have stayed two if site was open. Would be great vacation destination for family. They had tons of things to do. Bathhouses were beautiful. Staff friendly and helpful. We definitely would stay there again.

Beautiful, new and clean. The staff is very friendly and they offer various activities on site. It’s only about 10 minutes from Niagara Falls. Perfect camp site!

Stayed here for a weekend getaway. Loved it. Quiet, clean, friendly staff. Tons to do in the area.

Fell in love right when I was driving into the campground

We vacationed in Niagara last week and stayed at Branches Campground & Resort and I recommend this campground without any reservation! It’s beautifully maintained and the owners/​staff are great! Thank you Marsha for all of your suggestions (besides of course the falls) Niagara on the Lake and Letchworth State Park were both FABULOUS!

Branches of Niagara was three years old when we stayed there recently, and it is still in brand-​new condition. The owners and the general manager who runs the place obviously care, and care a lot, about providing a first-​class place to camp.
There are plenty of things to do — canoeing, kayaking, fishing (catch & release only), a pool (though the pool is usually a tad crowded with kids), swimming in the lake, zip lining (two lines, a short one for under-12’s and a much monger one for everyone else), miniature golf, arts and crafts for kids, and something I haven’t seen since I was kid — a huge sand pile on which to play king of the mountain.
There’s a small laundry facility and restrooms with showers, both of which are well maintained and clean. Staff members roam the grounds regularly to empty the trash and recycling cans that are conveniently placed throughout the campgrounds.
Camping can be done in cabins, in RV spaces with full hookups, or in tents.
The thing that really amazed us about Branches of Niagara, however, was the serenity of the place. Even with loads of families and tons of kids, the place had a quiet ambiance (with the exception of the pool area) — you could pull up one of the Adirondack chairs placed around the lake, and just sit awhile, letting time while away in peaceful, restful contemplation. This is something I seldom do, yet felt myself drawn towards it, especially towards late afternoon and evening. Sunsets over the lake are amazing, birds of all sizes fly overhead, and most nights as it starts to get dark, you can be enchanted by fireflies (aka lightning bugs).

I stayed here with my boyfriend yesterday after hearing it had opened this past Spring. It’s very new and very clean! There’s a great general store full of things that you might need while camping (firewood, propane, blankets, s’mores supplies, etc.) and the service was friendly. Some sites have electricity which is a few dollars more. There were RVs next to us while we stayed in our tent… it’s not very private, but I’d say good for someone with little camping experience (me). You can also rent cabins as well.
There is a man-​made lake as well with kayaks and canoes to rent next to a playground, and there’s a swimming pool in the near middle that I didn’t check out.
This was really perfect for my inexperienced camping self… it’s really pretty and clean to the point of feeling like a campgrounds resort!
