Clean air and a clean campground❣️Definitely had a hippy vibe to it, and was not far from the highway. The staff was in contact with me right after my same day reservation, and the owner I met was welcoming. There are port a potties and showers available, but they are in the process of building an actual bathhouse. There is also a pet fee to be aware of. I would describe this as rustic camping, so do not expect something like a formal campground with paved parking spots, fire rings, and picnic tables at the sites. Think open farm field, walk in woods camping. I would stay again❣️

Came here on a couple summer weeknights while visiting the Seneca nation and allegheny state park, and we were the only campers. Dolly welcomed us and her son showed us around the place, but for the most part we were there alone. The pavilion was a great place to convene and offered helpful living amenities, while our camp spot was next to the horse field, offering beautiful views. Would love to come back.

AMAZING STAY AND VIEWS! Host, Diane, was great! She shared local happenings and restaurants. The property was secluded, yet minutes away from downtown Westfield and local wineries/attractions. There’ a Love’s gas station nearby and off I-90 with a dump station, so very convenient. WE WILL DEFINITELY BE BACK!

Weekend Trip to The Heron Farm & Event Center

When we got there I wasn't handed a bunch of papers and rules so I was a little unsure how everything was going to go, but I soon realized everyone was incredibly helpful, they have signs everywhere with what you need to know so they don't have to waste paper and they were just easy going and accommodating. As a single mom camping with a small child every interaction with guests and staff was positive and I never felt uncomfortable. The staff, realizing I had a small child, offered suggestions that made all the difference and later realized they were teachers. Highly recommend. We look forward to coming back 😊

This site is rustic yet gorgeous. Horseback riding available across the road and Dolly couldn't be nicer. Really great for people who want to experience country life while still being a short drive to casino or the cute shops or thriving nightlife in Ellicottville. Will definitely return!
