Our full hook-up camp is in the middle of a small Amish community near the Finger Lakes. Amish buggies pass by occasionally especially on the Sunday where they meet at a neighbors for church fellowship. Our Amish are very friendly and will wave to let you know. There are Amish shops and baked good stands throughout the countryside that are fun to visit. A map of the shops is available to help you. Their shops are not open on Sunday however. The camp is close to the road where it is an easy in and out. We have full hookups...electric, water, and sewer (I have an extra 10 sewer hose if you need it). We are close to Stony Brook State Park, Conesus Lake, Deer Run Winery, Letchworth State Park, Livingston County Murals, Harriet Hollister Spencer State Park (overlook!), Erie Canal, and Geneseo State College. This camp is a nice hub to explore western NYS... going North, South, East, West to see the sites or hike.

Sandbar Farm was purchased as our home and as a place for both sharing our love and knowledge of horses with others and providing a place for animals to re-group and sometimes recover in order to find their perfect human. We have accomplished this goal for many and some, like Nameless the Mustang, have found a permanent safe place here. Over the years, we have found that our human friends and relatives also find the farm to be fun, and a popular place to relax and re-group from everyday life. We hope that you will feel the same way after a visit.

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.
See the provided map for site locations. Site 1 is open field and is near the pavilion, sites 2 and 3 are along the woods, and site 4 is the most private and tucked into the woods. We looking forward to hosting you, at the mission.

🙂 HAPPY TRAILS LANDING ⛺️
Happy Trails Landing offers primitive camping and is located between Bully Hill, Klipnocky, Gas Springs and Hiltonville State Forests on 140 acres of privately owned land. This peaceful spot is accessible, yet remote. The Finger Lakes Trail (FLT) follows the edge of the property for over 1/2 mile making your stay ideal for day hikes, or as a stop for those hiking longer sections of the 450+ mile network. Wade in the headwaters of the Canisteo River which passes through, or just get lost in the beauty along its shores. Explore streams and beaver ponds, stroll on miles of mowed grassy trails that wind around fields, meadows, and woods. Watch the sun rise and set and open views make for unparalleled star gazing all night long.
The nearest 3 small towns are about 7-8 miles away where you can find groceries, gas, shops, cafes, bars and restaurants. The larger “city” of Hornell, (with a Walmart and more) is a 15-20 minute drive. The beautiful Stoney Brook State Park is a 22 minute drive and award winning Letchworth State Park is less than 40 minutes away. We are just slightly southwest of the renowned Finger Lakes Region, but our local wine trail begins in under a 15 minute drive. Several breweries have popped up nearby as well!
Happy Trails will strive to keep your camping experience peaceful and private by not renting to more than one party at a time in the same area unless requested for larger group experiences. Our home is located 1/4 +/- mile from most sites. We are dog lovers and well behaved dogs are welcome as long as owners notify us in advance, keep them in control and clean up after them.
When you arrive you will follow 🙂 signs to your site. There may be scant service without searching out a sweet spot.

A lovely, 3 acre plot of secluded land surrounded by cute ponds and decorated with sculptures. A small campfire spot, wood stove in the trailer and a composting toilet. Want to unplug and get away from the busy life? Most mobile phones do not work here! We have only minimal solar electricity, and there is a propane stove as well! Two double beds, one single, and a couple of nice cots. Tent Sites abound!
We bought this property about four years ago. It was trashed by the previous owner and had an old dilapidated trailer in the middle of it. We cleaned and cleaned, then we ripped out the bad parts of the trailer and rebuilt the insides, placed a huge metal roof over the whole thing and put in a composting outhouse.
There's no running water, and phones don't get reception, so you can truly unplug and decompress in this lovely, quiet piece of land which is close to a ton of hiking / forest land and just down the road from Cummings Nature Center, a great place for family exploration and learning.

4 nights at McCormick Farms Base Camp
Stayed at site #3 which is set back and away from 2 other sites. SPACIOUS area surrounded by woods with a lean to, picnic table, fire ring. It's really a great, private area and feels secluded from the other two sites.
Emily was quickly responsive to every question leading up to the trip and couldn't have been a better host. Small amenities like a bin in the lean to with an area guide book and a small stock of perhaps forgotten necessities to a welcoming flower pot near the camp entrance give a feeling of warmth and welcome to the site. This was a great choice for us and look forward to staying here again.

We had a wonderful stay at McCormick Farms Base Camp. The campsite was peaceful, spacious, and well maintained. The location is fantastic—just a few minutes from Letchworth State Park, so it was easy to spend the day exploring and then return to a quiet campsite in the evening.
Emily was an exceptional host. She was incredibly accommodating and a great communicator throughout our stay, making everything easy from booking through checkout. We really appreciated her responsiveness and hospitality.
The thoughtful setup with the picnic table and fire pit, combined with the quiet farm setting, made for a relaxing getaway. If you're looking for a scenic, convenient place to camp near Letchworth, we highly recommend McCormick Farms Base Camp. We'd happily stay here again!

Weekend Trip to Overgrown Ridge Camp By Letchworth
It’s such beautiful space, it’s tucked away behind their house but it’s very private, quiet, filled with wild flowers, tall grass and tons of greenery. The set up was perfect. The cabin itself had it all; an AC/heating unit, hot plate, fridge, bed, breakfast bar and couch. It was so cozy. We loved the fire pit and lights around the camp! It’s only 15 minutes from Letchworth park. Jalin was very welcoming and helpful in finding the property. We’re very grateful to have had a girls trip and get away from the city. Thank you for letting us stay!

Now THIS is what we expect from a HipCamp: beautiful wooded setting, privacy, and dappled sunlight.
Yes, you can glimpse a house through the trees across the ravine, even in the height of summer, but we heard not a peep and saw no lights in our 3 days there mid-week.
The access driveway was freshly mowed, and the star-gazing spot mentioned in another review was perfect for our portable solar array. We felt comfortable leaving it up while we were away from camp because it's completely surround be dense forest. (Bonus: no road noise!)
We didn't use the outhouse because we have a toilet in our teardrop, but we loved the sturdy camp furniture... and the overall vibe.
Justin was very responsive and sent us a map of how to find the site when we touched base the day of check-in. There is a collection of vehicles on the property near the house at the entrance from the road, but once you get on the grass "driveway" down to the ravine you're totally immersed in nature -- our cat even enjoyed walking the woods!
We didn't hear or see a waterfall, which we expected would be in the ravine, so it may have been low water or somewhere else, but that didn't detract at all from our experience.
One note for folks with Tesla tow vehicles: we barely made it to a Tesla supercharging station with the RV, and we actually had to backtrack to get to one with the car only before continuing on our RV road trip the next day. This camp is in a bit of a charging desert.

I had the best time camping at creekside site 301! I will start by saying absolutely everyone on the staff was a delight. Kim and Mary both went above and beyond to help us during our stay, from hauling down gear to the site using a 4x4 gator (it’s a walk in site a few min walk from parking) to taking us for a ride on the gator to show us different areas of the property. The owner as well as his son were super kind and nice to speak with. You can tell they really love this place and take pride in it.
As for the site: Completely gorgeous and secluded from the rest of the property. The creek was crystal clear and super fun to explore up and down with many swimming holes along the way. I will say 301,302, and 303 are all next to each other, so this would be an incredible spot for groups to book together. If you prefer privacy i would recommend checking to see if any of the creekside sites are already occupied. We got lucky and had the whole creekside to ourselves. Getting lulled to sleep by the sound of the creek was amazing.
We only got to stay for 2 nights and drove from 5 hours away and i would (and will) come back again in a heartbeat. I could’ve stayed a week just enjoying this place.
