    Tranquil Meadows

    3 sites · RVs, Tents27 acres · Holley, NY
    Untill a couple years ago the acreage on this property had been farmed.In 2018 we decided give the farm land back to nature. It's amazing how quickly the land recovered! Our remodeled farm house was built in 1876. We've found many treasures on the property from past generations of farm families, everything from old bottles to horse shoes. We purchased this place in 2003 with hopes there would be grandchildren in the future and what a beautiful experience we could give them. Since then we've been blessed with a grand daughter and three grandsons. There is little to compare with the peace you feel in a quiet country environment like ours.Learn more about this land:We offer a nature preserve camping experience. Sunlight dancing off our expansive meadows of hiking trails is a tranquil site to behold.A multitude of song birds,butterflies and dragonflies make for a relaxing connection to nature. There are trails through cool wooded areas that will take you to to two ponds on the property. There is an elevated observation deck that over looks pine tree island from which you are likely to catch deer grazing at dusk in the cool evening air. We look forward to sharing our little country paradise with you.

    Weekend Trip to     Campcreeklife
    Cool spot right on Wiscoy Creek. I regret not bringing my fishing pole! Plenty of flat spots to set up tents. I'll be back in the warmer months and will rent out both spots and bring a few friends. Tons of firewood to gather right on the forest floor. I cut up a few logs the beavers got to and had plenty of firewood in addition to a little I brought with me.

    Weekend Trip to     Zoar Valley Forest Retreat
    One of the best campsites ever. I booked for Father's Day as a surprise but ended up having to cancel because of a conflict. My husband randomly booked this site, not knowing it was the same one I booked for him a few months earlier, so I guess it was meant to be! The sites are huge, big fire pit, private, and my dogs loved being off leash. Can't wait to go back in the summer!
