About Burnham Point State Park
Burnham Point is a 12-acre New York state park on the St. Lawrence River near Cape Vincent, set aside in 1898 as part of the St. Lawrence Reservation. It is mostly a campground, with 47 lightly wooded tent and trailer sites, 19 with electric hookups, plus a boat launch, docks, a playground and a pavilion. Boaters use it as a base to reach river towns and islands, and fishing is the main draw. Day-use entry is $6 per vehicle, and campsites run $15 to $29 a night.
