We loved camping at the ranch over the holiday weekend. We had a nice spacious serene spot where our two 10 man tents that were shaded in the evening, and we got to fall asleep to the babble of the creek. We walked up the creek to the swimming hole and took a wonderful and refreshing dip at the swimming hole where we got to hang out with other fellow hip campers and Dwayne himself! We had an amazing family weekend and made a few new friends. I would definitely recommend this spot for family camping weekends, and my family cannot wait to get back!

This is the second time my family and I stayed on Dwayne’s land. This has become a new favorite camping location for us. The camp is dog friendly and sites are distant from one another, allowing for privacy but the campers and dogs can all mingle together at the swim hole/creek. There are gorgeous farm animals that are friendly and enjoy eating carrots if you happen to bring some along! Dwayne is an incredibly generous, friendly and approachable host. He genuinely cares about how your camping experience went and makes his rounds to make sure each site is alright! The camp is easily accessible and is about 15-20 minutes from Watkins Glen. Staying at Tempest Ranch Camp is no doubt worth the stay from wherever you may be traveling from. We cannot wait to stay again in the future!

2 nights at Tempest Ranch camp
We had a great time. The layout is neat and had a small watering hole and a clean outhouse. Beautiful scenery and livestock. About 20 minutes outside of Watkins Glen.

Had a great time here. Dwayne was a cool guy who had a lot of different sites. We only stayed for one night but would love to go back. The wood bundles are a great deal!

Group trip
Amazing stay at Tempest Ranch! Dwayne was a wonderful host and so friendly. The farm had everything we needed and then some. Horses, friendly dogs, streams, trails to walk, beautiful fields, a swim hole, a small pond where my teens canoed. We liked it so much we stayed an extra night! All the other campers were really friendly and made the trip that much better. We adventures to Watkins Glen and Ithaca by day but always made it back in time to enjoy the farm life. We will definitely come back and stay when we are in the area! Our campsite was Tipi By The Stream right next to one of the horse pastures. Highly recommend Tempest Ranch!

Beautiful views, close enough to Watkins Glen but far enough so that you don't hear much commotion. Dwayne is lovely and inspiring. The swimming hole I'd refreshing and clean. The symphony of birds every morning was amazing and we saw deer. Can't forget to mention the friendliest donkeys I've ever met live at tempest ranch. Not many bugs for mid summer either! It's a peaceful place, highly recommend to like minded nature lovers.

Weekend Trip to Tempest Ranch camp
This was an amazing camp site!! I love it love it love it. Have to go again! Bathing in a stream. Wildflowers all around. Donkey calls from the barn at night. Great set up for cooking and campfire. Only thing that would have made it perfect was a grate/grill over the campfire…but we made due. Definitely would recommend. It was worth it for sure.

Awesome little cabin next to a bubbling little creek. I was pleasantly surprised ability to drive right up to the camp site. The best pleasant surprise were three lights; one in the cabin one in kitchen area, and one in the toilet area.
These made a huge difference.

We stayed here with nine middle school boys. They LOVED the pond , boats, and surrounding swings and falls nearby. We had intermittent lighting for two nights due to the constant cloudiness before our trip but found a way to make it work.

Wonderful hosts and a gorgeous setting! This cabin is so thoughtfully built, I love staring at the details almost as much as the scenery surrounding it!

The Underhill farm is amazing. Rick our host is helpful but gives you your privacy. We enjoyed our time fishing, exploring, making s’mores, and connecting with nature. Clean, private, beautiful. What else could you ask for?

This place is amazing! My son literally cried when we had to leave. The cabin was cozy and perfect for the three of us, and the air conditioning was a welcome bonus. We had a great night down by the fire pit, and during the day we walked around the property and checked out the goats. I would have happily stayed another night if I didn’t have to get back to work.

Definitely an awesome location and spot. If you want to be off the grid but close to the finger lakes this is your spot. Awesome creek next to the cabin. My labs loved the water

Weekend Trip to Tempest Ranch camp
We had an amazing time at Tempest Ranch :) Dwayne was very kind and even though the weather was wet our group had a blast relaxing on his beautiful land surrounded by nature. Given the chance we would love to come back, it's very close to some amazing waterfall hikes in the Finger Lakes region.
