Amy was very kind upon arrival and gave me a quick tour of the property. Our dogs were able to play off leash together but she asked first if it was okay. The outhouse and outdoor kitchen are are very nice! Amy let me park close to both since I was the only camper there.

Feel like family camping experience
So where to begin. A beautiful hour and a half ride right out of Buffalo and you land in the beautiful scenic campsite. Loaded with things to do such as kayaks ,canoes, stocked bass pond, outdoor kitchen, enormous fire pit, tree house, and lovely forested walking routes in the woods. Right away when we got there we were greeted by Amy and her friendly puppy and given a nice tour and some lovely conversation. Throughout the weekend (labor day) we're we're introduced to family as they came over to celebrate and included our camping group as one of their own. Libations and stories were shared from both groups leading to some wonderful nights and friendships. Early mornings would start with a few of us fishing and even one of family catching a 5lb bass. It was a biiiig fish haha. Overall this felt more like being invited over by family for a fun get together. It was camping with all the perks! The best part has to be the host and the people around her they were so inviting and kind it really made the weekend. If you like tarot, beers, good vibes,fishing and of course maple syrup. This is 100 percent the place to check out.

Amy is a very kind and gracious host. She has an awesome property with something for everyone. Her communication is excellent and answers questions quickly. Fishing on the pond for bass was a blast! She also has walking trails and the "outhouse" was great. All the cooking necessities are there and campfires galore. It was a lot of fun!

Luxury Backcountry serenity!
Absolutely amazing in every aspect! Amy always went above and beyond to make sure our stay was the best it could possibly be! Lulu the pup was perfectly well behaved and got along perfectly with our dog! We had our own fire pit and secluded site so we could have our own time, but there is also the Party Pit, where there's all the cooking supplies you could need, plus a fridge, plus people to share great stories with! The pond is perfect for fishing, the bass are super active! Amazing for hammock campers, very short walk from parking to your campsite, outhouse with flushing toilet was a great luxury! Amy went out of her way to make sure we felt like family there, between Amy, Lulu, and the amazing property, we will definitely be back!
