Holders of 2017 season passes do not have to provide proof of residency and can simply apply by mail (or in person). The application form is available at the Office or on the Parks page at co.sullivan.ny.us.
The beach at Lake Superior State Park will open to the public on Saturday, May 26, 2018 and continue to operate every weekend through the end of June, when it will commence daily operations through Labor Day. Hours are 9 a.m.-7 p.m., subject to weather conditions.
Admission is $5 per person. Children under 3 years old and veterans who present a valid ID issued through the Sullivan County Return the F.A.V.O.R. program can enter for free.
