This is a beautiful piece of property located in the heart of the Finger Lakes and Wine Country of NY. It features a stunning spring fed waterfall and nice forest land. Very close to town but also very secluded and private. Great place to unwind and relax from our everyday lives. It is situated however in a gully next to a creek and waterfall so it is susceptible to heavy rains. It is recommended to at least have an AWD vehicle if rainy. I can usually help campers with getting to the site in my side X side if you need to park up at the pasture. Please order enough wood initially as I have found I spend a lot of time delivering extra wood to campers. It seems as if you will typically go through 2 bundles per night on average. Also I supply a contractor size garbage bag to you if you choose garbage removal. It is also a good idea to text me when you have a solid ETA so I can be here to take you to the site. I want to mention that the two sites closest to the waterfall are a slight hike in and can only accommodate up to 4 person tents so if a bigger group or vehicle camping you will be placed at another site. Hope to see you soon. Ken

    Ken's campsite is a hit among campers who appreciate a blend of nature and comfort. The area is described as serene and secluded, with a charming waterfall nearby that adds to the peaceful ambiance. Guests have highlighted the convenience of on-site amenities like fire pits and picnic tables, while the proximity to Watkins Glen is a notable advantage for exploring the region. Ken, the host, receives high praise for his hospitality and responsiveness, making the stay even more enjoyable.

    Doesn't recommend

    We stayed for two nights and loved the secluded setting, quiet surroundings, and beautiful scenery. It felt like we were the only people in the woods. However, the cabin was uncomfortably cold at night, and the small heater couldn’t adequately warm the space. We purchased our own bedding as instructed, but the sleeping area still didn’t feel clean, with visible stains on the pillows and dirt on the sofa bed mattress. The shower was a cold-water waterfall setup with no privacy, making it impractical for us to use in the cold weather. While the listing disclosed the rustic facilities, we still found the stay lacking in basic warmth, comfort, and cleanliness. Beautiful location, but the overall experience was disappointing.
