There is a large parking area with 15a electrical available for small campers or small trailers. Also a hose is available to fill water. Alternatively, I have two great tent spaces at the back of the property with a private areas to set up tents. There is a (shared) campfire stonepit at the back of the property. Split firewood is available for $5.00 per armload.  Campers can take this from the firewood pile. Chestnut Ridge park is a 7 minute drive. It has great trails, including the Eternal Flame Hike, and a large fishing pond. Green lake is also nearby with fishing and a good place for paddle boarding or kayaking. The property is .5 mi from Bills Stadium.  Lake Erie and its beaches are a 15 minute drive. Niagara Falls is 30 min. Downtown Buffalo is 20 min. There are walkable restaurants nearby (about .5 to 1 mi). An indoor restroom is available at specific hours (typically 4pm-8:30 am)  or if arranged in advance outside those hours.

Site 2 - Big Tree Camping
Hidden Gem
Close to Buffalo and yet it feels like you’re in a woodland when you park at Site 2 behind the garage. It’s manicured but the host has made available a wisteria covered hammock shelter, a fire pit and wood, picnic table and more. We had planned to visit the Graycliff House designed by Frank Lloyd Wright for the Martin family. It’s only 20 minutes’ drive from the Big Tree campsite. We also took in dinner and a movie at a nearby shopping center. David was helpful and communicated with us. We hope this site is available next summer when we pass through the area again.

Site 3 fire pit
We booked David's tent site last minute for the eclipse! We are very glad that we were able to find this place. David was helpful and responsive throughout our entire stay. There were two other families staying in the two other tent sites but everything was far enough away for our stay to feel private.

Total Solar Eclipse Camping!
David was a fantastic host! He was very responsive and friendly! His property was beautiful. My husband, nephew, dog and I stayed at Site 1 (which is closest to the house) - this was great for late night & early AM bathroom trips, but I would recommend staying at Site 2 out of all three! It is the perfect spot between the house and the fire pit. Then Site 3 was right next to the fire pit. Nonetheless, you cannot go wrong with any of these sites as you are able to roam the grounds and have fun! The swings and hammock were a huge plus - the kids were loving the swing!!! I highly recommend David’s place for beginner campers, family camping trips, and campers who want to be in nature but not far from civilization. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

David’s spot was perfect! It was a lovely, spacious secluded area by a fire pit. The bathroom access was easy, and David was super friendly and helpful. It was very convenient to everything we needed. We’ll definitely be back!
