This was a nice little spot. The ground at the first campsite was a bit rocky, but there were others to choose from. The provided firewood was amazing and the tree coverage was great with the heat. We saw some deer and various other wildlife.

Just what we needed!

We loved our time at Al's Camp! The solar path lights at the RV site were a nice touch, as was the non-potable water next to the firepit. The tree sculptures were magical, and we were able to set up our solar suitcase panels at the tent site. I wish we had been able to do more walking on the trails at the site, but just walking down to the creek was fun! We also spent quite some time one morning watching and listening to birds of prey circling above the trees. You'll also hear planes, trains, and automobiles, but it doesn't detract from the experience. We'll be back if we're in the area again! We also appreciated how responsive Al was to our questions.

Great private camping with 40 acres to explore. There was ample dry firewood and the outhouse was clean and well kept. Loved being surrounded by woods but able to see the stars through the canopy. We chose the tent site further in to feel even closer to nature. Lots to do nearby if looking for activities off site.

Great location. Nice to have some firewood provided and only a little ways from the road. There was some road noise. I'm used to living in the country but overall a good experience.

This is a great location for anybody wanting to visit wineries along Seneca lake. It was very easy to find. Plenty of space for our pop-up camper, and the amenities for camping were excellent. The down-facing night lights near the bench and outhouse are helpful. All the firewood was lovely. We had the most delicious steaks that we cooked over the coals. The noise from Highway 14 is definitely there, but so were the calls of the osprey that we enjoyed listening to.
