Once an historic granary, this building and property was converted for use as a family home and organic homestead. We raise poultry for meat and eggs and have a large raised bed system of vegetables and bramble fruits for preserving. Quiet spots with nearby parking make this a unique camping experience. Picnic table and small fire ring for campfires. Catch some fireflies and gaze at the stars without city lights....it's time to relax! Learn more about this land: Park your camper or RV in one of the private garden areas amid organically raised berries, vegetables, laying hens and other farm occupants! Each roomy campsite has a picnic table and small fire ring. Organic eggs for breakfast when available (the hens decide!). Our farm began as a granary in 1875, and in 1984 we began to renovate it into a home and sustenance farm.

Mixed feelings

beautiful home, nice flat yard and nice gardens—easy to set up tent, but watch out for dog poop in the yard. Heather was friendly and came out to meet us when we arrived, but did not mention where toilet was/how to access it or the wifi, nor where to find spigot for water. we forgot to ask, but didn’t see her again. she did show us where to find firewood. there was also no picnic table as mentioned in the description. no big deal, but not entirely what we were expecting. otherwise easy to find and an enjoyable stay.

Amazing host, kid friendly

Our first time using Hipcamp and it was perfect. My two girls and I had planned to camp in Ontario but due to covid border lockdown we couldn’t. We had been camping for a month around the Great Lakes and wanted to be close to Lake Ontario and found Heathers place. Couldn’t of been happier, my 8 year old said it was the best place we stayed the whole trip. I asked my 6 year old if she liked it there and she corrected me and said she loved it not liked it.

The site was relatively private along the garden beds of the host’s home. The host was very friendly and communicative. As a camping site for a tent the ground in the yard was pretty compacted and a bit harder than a few other places we camped on our trip. We drove an extra 45 minutes to camp on a farm in the Buffalo area. The site had a bit more debris in the surrounding environment than had hoped given the selected pictures.

Wonderful night along Lake Ontario.

Our host, Heather, was extremely friendly. She had some extra lettuce in the garden, and cut some for us. It was delicious. There was a nice trail along the woods behind the camp. The dogs loved going on it. I would highly recommend staying here if ever you get up to Niagara Falls or Rochester.

I enjoyed my stay on this small farm in upstate New York. We were there too early for fruit or vegetables, but we did get eggs from the resident chickens! The night was very peaceful, with the windows open listening to the frogs and coyotes. We say deer and rabbits on our morning walk. Heather was kind and helpful. Her big labs are friendly and sweet. Our AT&T signal was strong enough to stream video for work, 30 download, 6 upload. Our Verizon signal was slow, 5 download, 1 upload. I would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful garden location

What a wonderful vacation. Heather was a fantastic, generous and accommodating host with a wealth of information about local food and attractions. The site is a beautiful garden with raspberries galore in a quiet country location.The location is perfect for enjoying Niagara Falls or the many State Parks and wineries that are in the area. Thank you Heather, can’t wait to come back!!!!

This was the perfect spot to use as a base to explore Lake Ontario, Buffalo, Niagara and Rochester. Heather was kind and friendly. And we enjoyed the raspberries and eggs from our farm. There is a ton of birds in the area and they are really entertaining in the morning.

Hidden Gem in Upstate NY :)

What a great little hidden gem! Stonebird Farm is beautifully tucked away in upstate NY, and surprisingly close to Lake Ontario (10min drive). Heather is a fantastic host and super accommodating! Camping here was a treat. Plus, the yellow labs Gunner and Gracie will give you an awesome welcome :)

We had a lovely stay in our tent in the garden! Heather was super friendly and showed us around her farm -- the main house is so cool, the property is perfect for wandering, and the endless raspberry bushes were unbeatable. We ended the night with a bonfire and smore's! I would totally recommend this garden spot to future tent campers.
