Stories from the community

2 nights at Tomtuga on the Erie Canal

Tom was a great host and knows just about everything there is to know about the best places to visit and to eat.

2 nights at The Crosspatch

Quiet yet convenient. Many unusual artifacts and old iron-craft items. Various site options.

1 night at The Crosspatch

When we pulled into her driveway Dolly greeted us immediately and we followed her to the campground across the road. We found a sweet little spot next to a stream and we were lulled to sleep. And we enjoyed seeing the horses.

6 nights at The Crosspatch

Dolly and Jim’s land is absolutely stunning and their hospitality is even more impressive! We showed up just before the rain started and they came down to welcome us. It was cold and raining the whole time but they helps us make the most of it. Dolly played games with my kids and we talked about life in the evening around a campfire. I couldn’t be more grateful for their help and time! Would definitely recommend!

Weekend Trip to The Quarry

We had a beautiful stay at the quarry. My wife and I brought our two dogs and they had plenty of room to play. we will certainly be back!

Weekend Trip to Tomtuga on the Erie Canal

Great guy, fun little spot, close enough to the falls. He drove a hour to meet me there, had a fire going for is and hooked up the camper for me. Provided lots of local and regional information for my travels.

1 night at Hideaway Valley

Second time at Williams spot and it's awesome! Brought my fishing pole this time but heavy rains the day before made it a little murky and the water was moving very fast. We'll be back with our tear drop this summer.

1 night at PB Farm Stay Camp Site

Nice place. Easy access. Very quiet. We bought eggs from the farm shop.

Weekend Trip to Ellicottville Woods

Private, quiet, safe spot to park your camper. Has an electrical outlet & odorless composting toilet. Plan on staying again.

Weekend Trip to Apple Cove Farm

Absolute gem of a property tucked into the farmlands of NY! James was an absolutely amazing host, not only do I recommend for other but I'll 100% be back several times over again. Restroom.... Disc Golf Basket! Garbage cans. Recycling cans, fire pits...

Weekend Trip to Apple Cove Farm

The campsite was great. It was very remote and quiet, no road noise, and we could hear the peepers all night. James was a great host and gave us our space while letting us know he was available if we needed anything. He also showed my son some deer antler sheddings in the morning and gave him a turkey feather he found! We only stayed for 1 night, but it was a perfect place to stay.

3 nights at The Quarry

Highly recommend! Beautiful place and great host. Clean, quiet very clean restrooms. Biking rail trail runs through the campground if you like to bike. We will definitely go back.

Weekend Trip to Angie's Country Cabins B&B

Thank you Angie for a great stay! She is definitely trying to make the property a destination! The cabin is located slightly down the street from their house. Beautifully set up! We enjoyed being a bit more secluded considering we had dogs. We didn’t use their hot tub but were welcomed to it! The property as well as the local area was flooded due to weather. We stayed for one night (due to a cancellation of another Hipcamp) but were happy to find the spot for future use! Thanks again!

1 night at The Crosspatch

It was a great place to stay overnight as I was passing through. I ended up staying there both ways I liked it so much. Hosts are friendly and available.

1 night at The Crosspatch

I was passing through for the night and it was a great place to stay - friendly and helpful. They left wood for a campfire which was also nice. Thanks!

Weekend Trip to Apple Cove Farm

absolutely amazing views, camping spots, and hospitality! firewood was delivered right to us and we even got some background on the history of Jim Thorpe. we will 100000% be back!

1 night at Ellicottville Woods

Enjoyed our stay, it was peaceful and felt safe. Some trouble with finding it, but the drive was clearly labeled so we knew once we got there and drove up a little that we were in the right place.

3 nights at Secluded Camping on the Canal

Beautiful property and location. We weren’t able to check out as much as we wanted with the mud and downed trees. No fault of the owner, there had been 40+ mph winds and downpours a few days prior to my arrival. I would really enjoy coming back in late spring or early summer when everything is in full bloom and the trails are dried up. Debra, the host is very responsive and answers any questions you may have. I would recommend this place 100% and will be back for sure.

1 night at The Crosspatch

It’s a great price with great price! Really enjoy it!

Weekend Trip to The Quarry

the showers are great and the host was chill asf- the heaters in there were useful

Tomtuga on the Erie Canal

4 sites · RVs2 acres · Gasport, NY

Thank you for looking at what I have to offer. We love to have fun here. Which is why we call our little campground Tomtuga. It is sort of a reference of the Caribbean pirate island of Tortuga, except my name is Tom. I'm here mostly for the canal and living the pirate life but there have been sightings of Bigfoot and his cousin Yeti. They show up once in awhile to keep things interesting. Here at Tomtuga we are 2 acres with the Erie Canal across the front on a quiet street and the Genesee Valley Transportation, a local shortline railroad across the backyard. Boat season is May - Oct. Train runs mostly just two days a week all year. Step out and give the boats and trains a friendly wave. We are a hard packed base that can handle the very large RVs. Campsite #1 is where the 50amp / 30amp / 110 electric outlets are. Campsite #2 is the only area that has a "good" grassy spot. With only two campsites, along with my RV here, it is a rather peaceful camp. There are no bathrooms here, so I'm sorry but no tent camping available. We offer ''Buddy Camping'', in which if you are traveling with friends in a 2nd RV / camper. I allow you to both camp on the same campsite #1. You still need to book campsite #4. If you have more camping friends, I can add more campsites for each camper using our "Overflow sites" for booking. This is just a clerical thing for charges. Actually campsite #1 can hold three campers. Also if you don't need power, like you have solar or batteries etc. I might allow you to park anywhere on our two acres. You book campsite #3. You can check the property out before setting up. I allow 2nd vehicles or also ''toads'' on the campsites too at no charge. I'm Ok if you show up early from an overnight drive to the site and park in the main driveway. If there are not any previous campers onsite, I might let you into the site. Just let me know beforehand. *No bathrooms on the property! You must have self contained units! When I get the bathroom built, this will change. **Again, NO Bathrooms here! If you try to book posing as a ''campervan'' but just a van or staying in a cardboard box on a trailer, don't book here. Please go stealth camp at Walmart, they have bathrooms and are free to overnight. I wouldn't pee in your yard. No water hookups. No dumpstation either. We have free WiFi. Firewood available for $5 a bundle or bring your own. The local gas station has small bundles down the street for $8 each. * Please ask me before you let any of your dogs off leash. If there are other campers here, we all need to be in agreement on this. For their children and pets safety too. I do allow multiple dogs here. Again, please clean up after them. Do NOT just toss it into my woods or the canal. Nice small canal town here with local eateries, including two pizza places; two bars and a breakfast lunch spot / laundromat / hardware store / Dollar General / gas station. We have a veterinary in town too. All within a short walking distance. NYS Bike path on the opposite side of the canal, goes from Buffalo to Albany. Some 350 miles. Also a free NYS Canal boat ramp 1,800ft to the east, on our side of the canal. So bring your bikes / kayaks / boats / fishing poles. Rentals available in Lockport. Worms available at the hardware store in town. We are also open during the winter season, Uh yep. Please message me before hand because it depends on the snow depth if I'm letting campers in. *Special Bonus Offer - I am an online ordained minister and offer wedding nuptials here at Camp Tomtuga. Our twist is having your vows done by Rev Bigfoot or Padre Yeti in full regalia. Comes with an actual wedding certificate (you still need a license to make it legal). Cake is an extra fee. NO Dumpstation here!!! There is one 20 minutes south, just off the NY Thruway at the Flying J Truck Stop. 8484 Allegheny Rd, Pembroke. It is in the RV fuel island. Costs is $10. Get the code inside. *Ask about our free camper sticker or buying a Camp Tomtuga T-shirt. The shirts are Made to Order and can be mailed out afterwards. Hey if you could, when on the booking page it asks you to "Say Hello". Please tell me what kind of camper you are coming in like an RV or trailer and the size. It asks you that question right above that but I don't receive that info till much later. It just helps me gauge on placement here. I have plenty of room but it's nice to know what it showing up. Thanks Lots of people asking so, we are 30 miles from Niagara Falls. Very easy ride there and back using NYS Rt 104. This route goes along the Niagara escarpment with lots of farms stands and a few wineries. Most of my guests use my campsites as a basecamp to then go and explore Niagara Falls or even day trip to Toronto Canada 106 miles away. I provide a list of local NY info / places to visit in Canada and my experience on crossing the border. My camp to downtown Buffalo is 38 miles. To downtown Rochester is 51 miles. Lake Ontario Olcott Beach is 17 miles. Letchworth NYS Park 60 miles. We are 42 miles to the Buffalo Bills (Highmark Stadium). Thanks again, I hope you come and stay.
