Nearest OG is in Colonie or Queensbury. There are numerous Chinese buffet places on RT 9 on the way up to Lake George. Lots of franchise type restaurants on that route. That would be your closest.

As to grocery shopping, I wish they would put up a Trader Joe's somewhere in the TOGA environs. If anyone is looking for quality beef and poultry and a lot of other quality foods, I can recommend THE MEAT HOUSE on Rt. 50 in Wilton.

McDonald's or Dunkin Donuts . No surprises and they have take out . Actually, now I recall almost being attacked by an agitated German Shephard in an SUV that was pulling out of the drive up at McDonald's. If the rear window was down any further he would have had me for breakfast. I was standing on the sidewalk waiting for the SUV to pull out before that surprise. And the lady behind the wheel puffing on a smoke got mad when I asked her to roll up the windows.

Hello,

I stayed in my RV at Whispering Pines Campsites & RV Park, 550 Sand Hill Road ▪ Greenfield Center ▪ New York ▪ 12833 for 5 days in May this year, really nice. I hae sayed at 2 other places up there over the last two Toga seasons and this one was by far the best.

They have RV sites, tent sites and cabins to rent as well. Cabins go fast if you think yo may want to go there I would get on it.


About 1 mile from Old Friends Cabin Creek and like 15 minutes to the track (going back streets)

Camp ground owners were just great!!!!
