DEC has announced a transition to automated, online sales for all-day use permits for the Lake George Islands. Previously, visitors had to access island headquarters via boat to purchase their permits. WTEN reports online sales are expected to begin on May 12, seven days before the opening of the Lake George Islands campgrounds. Bookings can be made as early as seven days before the day of arrival and as late as the same day depending on availability. The total fee for a day-use permit is $12.
