Crown Point has a rich heritage dating back to the 1750's, and Crown Point Public Campground rests over battlefields and fort locations dating back to 1775. Remnants of structures and sites remain for visitors to view. The lighthouse built in 1858 and rebuilt in 1911-12, is positioned on the campground shore. It can be toured for the appropriate day-use fee and overlooks the 281,600 acre Lake Champlain. Positioned so that it is majestically overlooking Lake Champlain and neighboring Vermont, the Crown Point bridge looms on the northern shore of the campground and is one of the few bridges connecting New York State and Vermont. The entire Crown Point Reservation, including all 49 acres of the campground, are listed in the National Register of Historic Places and have been designated by the United States Secretary of the Interior as a National Historic Landmark.

Power boats, rowboats, and canoes are allowed/ the campground offers a boat launch. Fishing for largemouth bass, smallmouth bass, northern pike, bullhead, yellow perch, brown trout, and lake trout is popular.

The park has campsites, hot showers, a trailer dump station, a recycling center, disabled accessibility, and a boat launching ramp. Campsites are capable of holding any size RV and are blanketed with grass all summer long. There is one on-site lean-to.
