Mission Hemlock Grove

4 sites · RVs, Tents200 acres · Conesus, NY

Welcome, Mission Conesus, originally built by Franciscan Catholics. These lands were likely chosen for many reasons. Suffice it to say there is something special here. Come discover for yourself. Lose yourself here, or maybe find yourself, among the Hemlocks. First, a bit about the terrain. There is much in the way of forest, very mature, and a broad array of plant species. Elevation differences are vast, land to the west is uphill for quite a ways, and downhill to the east, to Hemlock lake below, so the world here can feel a bit tilted. We adjoin 150 acres of nature conservancy lands that nobody seems to know about. These lands are for respectful public daytime use. We also adjoin 6600 acres of NY state forest which is public property. Exploring all that is here would take a very long time! Want to get away? Welcome to our little slice of heaven. We are just getting started in the camping space, but for now, we're accepting bookings and looking forward to hosting you, at the mission.

Camping near Conesus Lake guide

Overview

Immerse in the Finger Lakes region of New York on an unforgettable Conesus Lake camping trip. From the rustic charm of off-the-grid tent camping in the woods to the convenience of modern RV parks with dump stations and full hookups for 30-amp or 50-amp service, camping choices in the area are as diverse as the outdoor activities. Camping cottages and rental trailers by Conesus Lake provide easy access to boating, tubing, and largemouth bass fishing. Or head south to Letchworth State Park near Mount Morris for some of the best views in all of the eastern United States. Dubbed the “Grand Canyon of the East,” the park is home to several campgrounds with amenities like showers and a playground, as well as cabin rentals for a more comfortable stay. Hike the challenging Letchworth State Park Gorge Trail surrounded by lush forests, or ascend steep hills through the meandering 550-foot-deep river gorge and pass two of the park's major waterfalls.
