Wooded Waterfall Campsite
Had a great stay! This is a lovely, quiet, and private little patch of woods with a comfortable balance of light and shade. Good location: we found a nice park in town for kayaking and took a day trip to Letchworth State Park. Shopping & food nearby if you need it. The onsite furniture is both cute and very usable, with a huge picnic table. Plenty of fire wood was provided. The cooking grate over the fire ring was very appreciated, since our camp stove failed. Even the clean, close by, composting toilet was pleasant. Host was friendly and very respectful of two women camping by themselves. Would definitely camp here again if in the area!

Awesome spot! Didn’t have much time to stay and enjoy as we were there for a concert at CMAC but would love to come back and spent more time. Very clean, nice outhouse in great condition and nice furniture

We enjoyed our stay. Robert met us and guided us to the site, which is located near his house but down a gravel path. We were provided with plenty of firewood. While on the site, we barely heard or saw anyone else, except an occasional passing car or lawn mower in the distance. The campsite had nice wooden furniture and a very clean pit toilet. We took a 15 min walk through the woods to get to Hemlock Lake, though it was a bit treacherous at points. You can also easily drive there too. The stars were very bright in the meadows near the site.

Great site.
We loved camping on Bob's land. Tge site is equal to most state park campsites with space and nice seating. The outhouse is also one of the nicest/cleanest we have ever seen. A little challenging to back a trailer in to in a rainstorm, but a nice gravel surface. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful, private campsite
Beautiful private wooded campsite. Backs up to the forest. Robert was super kind and helpful. He has done a great job with adding nice furniture and a table to the site. He provided firewood as well. The vault toilet is clean and taken care of. Would stay here again and would reccommend it to everyone.

The campsite location was quite private. There is a house in view but it is across a ravine and partially shielded by trees. The rustic furniture around the fire pit is comfy and well made. There is a new, odor free out house. Bob provided us with an abundant amount of fire wood.
