Capricorn | Black Lake Glamping Dome

Capricorn is designed for two guests looking for an easy way to experience camping without having to pitch a tent or sleep on the ground.
Inside the dome is a queen bed with bedding, two nightstands and lamps, a luggage rack, shoe rack, and interior lighting. A large clear section of the dome and overhead skylight help bring the outdoors into the space while still giving you a comfortable place to sleep.
A greenhouse-style ventilation system exchanges indoor and outdoor air to help manage temperatures and keep air circulating. Please note that this is not traditional heating or air conditioning, and temperatures inside the dome will still be influenced by outdoor weather.
Outside, Capricorn has its own deck with two Adirondack chairs, a two-person hammock, and a smokeless fire pit — perfect for morning coffee, an afternoon nap, or relaxing around the fire at night.
Approximately 350 feet away is the shared glamping kitchen. It includes a stove and oven, pots and pans, plates, cutlery, glasses, counter seating for two, and a small table with two chairs.
Next to the kitchen is our pavilion and shared bathhouse, with separate men's and women's restrooms and three individual shower rooms. The pavilion also offers additional covered seating.

Guests have access to the entire dome, shared kitchen, bathrooms and showers.

Back Bay Campground and Cottages is a family-owned and operated lakeside retreat located on the southern shores of Black Lake in upstate New York. Known as one of New York’s premier fishing and boating destinations, the campground sits just minutes from the scenic St. Lawrence River and the charming town of Hammond, NY. The property is thoughtfully designed for guests who want to enjoy the lake at a relaxed pace without the crowds and noise of large commercial resorts. Guests enjoy easy access to the water and docks, along with shared amenities such as a heated swimming pool, arcade, and picnic areas. An on-site camp store offers convenient rentals, including boats, kayaks, and lawn games, so you can fully enjoy the lake without leaving the property.

Back Bay Campground is located on a quiet lakeside road and is accessible by car only. Public transportation and ride share services are not available in the area; therefore, guests must plan to arrive with their own vehicle. Once on the property, guests can easily explore the campground on foot, including access to amenities and walking paths. Cell service may be limited in certain areas due to the rural setting.

Leo is part of Back Bay Campground on Black Lake, giving you access to the campground and its amenities during your stay.
Spend your days enjoying the lake, exploring the campground, relaxing by the heated pool, or challenging each other in our 24/7 game room. Kayaks, paddleboards, fishing boats, pontoon boats, and other rentals may also be available during the campground season.
Our 24/7 bait and tackle vending makes it easy to grab fishing essentials before heading out on Black Lake.
Leo is best suited for guests who enjoy the outdoors and want the fun of camping with the added comfort of a real bed, furnished outdoor space, and access to cooking and shower facilities.
