Campers consistently rave about the serene and scenic location along the river, which offers a perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility. The host, Chris, is frequently praised for being helpful and accommodating, ensuring a smooth experience for visitors. The campsite is well-equipped with features like a lean-to and a clean outhouse, adding to the comfort of the stay. While the proximity to the river is a highlight, some mention the hike down being a bit steep, but the overall ambiance and facilities make it a popular choice for both relaxation and adventure.

Great location, wonderful river swimming. Should have stayed at least another night.
We met Chris at his house and followed him to the campsite. He was friendly and informative, a gracious host. Very nice setup on the edge of a ravine (you can hear the water below) with adjacent grassy field to camp and let dog run. We did not have time for the swimming hole trek. Definitely recommend.

Its a great spot! He is a very good host. I caught two Brown trout at sunrise in the third week of July. Deer, birds, good views and the fire pit is nice. I would recommend the property to anyone! :)
I have a list of things I look for when I'm booking a campsite. At the top of that list is privacy. This campsite fits that. The spot is in the woods with no other site, or house etc. around. It's just you and the wildlife. It's not too far off the road and easy to get to, but still secluded enough to feel private.
The lean-to is great if it starts to get buggy. We cooked some food over the fire and our dog loved to run around the field at the site. Getting to the water is a short hike but worth it. Just make sure you wear the right footwear!
This is definitely a site worth visiting again for some time away but still being able to access modern convivences. Also wanted to mention- we have Verizon and had cell service.
PS- Make sure you check out the farm stand!

Upon arrival, we were greeted by Chris at the farm house. We purchased $20 worth of wood that he brought to our site and stacked for us. Chris then showed us to our site and explained the property map provided. Also provided, in the lean-to, were sheets of information with things to do in the area, emergency numbers, etc. While the site isn’t as close to the water as we’d hoped, you can hike down. There aren’t many great places to get in down there, so you’re better off driving the path to the screen house (if the site isn’t occupied). If you’re tenting, and want to be closer to the water, I recommend that site. If you’re looking for more quiet, privacy, with soft grass to play yard games in, the lean-to site is perfect. You can walk, or drive, down to the “swim area” where you’ll get to chat with all the fun tubers floating by. The site is very spacious, flat enough, and sunny, with a bit of shade. By the lean-to, there’s enough room for maybe 4-6 people to sit by the fire. The fireplace is on the edge of a cliff overlooking the creek. Great view and the sound of the moving water is very relaxing. In addition to the lean-to, you’re provided a picnic table, 2 chairs, and 2 benches outside. 2 chairs, a small table, and a lantern inside. There’s a clean outhouse with TP, hand sanitizer, and hand wipes. If you forgot anything, the stores are only minutes away. We picked up some zucchini, shitake mushrooms, and carved wood mushrooms at the farm stand here as well.
If you want a relaxing getaway on the river, this is it! We had a blast catching crayfish, fishing, tubing, and paddle boarding all a few feet away from our tent. The property is breathtaking and Chris is incredibly kind, responsive, and accommodating. Absolutely would love to camp here again!

Had a great time tent camping by West Canada Creek! The dogs loved running in the little field behind the lean to and the site was very well kept.

Beautiful site, garbage removal, super clean outhouse. Chris was a great host, driving to site to show us around. Leaving dry wood for a great campfire. Say 2 deer at campsite. Look forward to staying again!

What a great set up Chris and Heather have put together. Everything I needed was of access for me to just enjoy my time. I was early in the season and marked my calendar to come back to see the farm in full bloom. Thanks again for the love and elbow grease to make a safe haven spot.

My wife and I had such a great weekend camping on this property. The site itself was beautiful and clean. Chris was a great host and was very accommodating. We spent the day in the water and let our dog roam free. He’s exhausted today!
Would definitely recommend staying here and we are excited to be able to come back!
Also would recommend stopping by to look at his pumpkin carvings! We bought a few on the way home.
Thanks again!

Chris was quick to respond to my inquiry before booking the site. Everything is as advertised, and there were no surprises. He met us at the house and led us to the site with a tour of the area and the river. I really appreciated the laminated information packet inside the screen house. This has the best outhouse ever, so clean! We loved having a river for our dog to swim in, and the fire pit to warm us up and dry her off.

Probably the best site I’ve ever camped on. Had everything you need. Took a swim which was lovely. Would love to come back someday.
Everything about this camp was awesome. I liked the view of the water and accessing it was very easy. The lean-to and the outhouse were well kept. Accessing the campsite was a simple minute drive from the road, and you can park right next to the site. The view of the stars was awe-inspiring.
I will definitely be back and I’d recommend to all campers.

All in all great camp!
A secluded spot in the forest above the river.
nice fields and river access - was great fun to run around with the kids and dip in the river.
lean-to was great with the rainy night that we had.
Chris was nice and helpful.
only downside to take into account, is some amount of road noise from the nearby highway - not terrible, but there...
Chris is a fabulous and personable host. The location was perfect for a quiet get away, and the W Canada waters were fantastic to swim/ cool off in! I would recommend to anyone.

West Canada Creek Lean-to
The Lean-To was perfect for two! I was nice, being so close to the creek. It was a bit noisy during the day with all the tubers floating by but come night it was peaceful.
The lean-to camp was awesome. Really pretty view of the creek and all you need for a camp. Brought 3 of my kids there for 3 nights. They loved it. And the ability to order firewood straight from the owner was a huge plus!! And it was right at the camp ready for us. No need to cart our own or try to find some on the way there. The land is perfect. Secluded enough to feel like you are in the middle of nowhere, but still close enough to civilization if you forgot something. I took the kids to the Herkimer Dimond Mines for a day. It's not to far away. The creek is beautiful. Chris was really helpful, explaining what we could do and where we could go. They had a map and info. Other than the Dimond mines, we pretty much stayed there the 3 days. We swam, kayaked and hiked all over the land. Chris even helped us jump start our van when I left some lights on too long. Chris is also very responsive through the app!! Which is a huge plus.

I highly recommend this campsite to anyone looking for a peaceful, nature-filled getaway. Tucked back far enough from the road, it's incredibly quiet — you might hear the occasional car, but mostly just the sounds of nature. Just about 20 feet down a small hill, there’s a beautiful creek perfect for tubing, kayaking, or fishing. I especially suggest bringing a tube — you’ll see hundreds of others floating along and enjoying the water.
The owner has done a fantastic job maintaining plenty of tree coverage, giving each campsite a nice sense of privacy. The screen house was a great bonus — roomy enough for an air mattress and ideal for sleeping under the stars without the bugs. The owner is incredibly friendly, offers free firewood, and their family even sells fresh food from their farm. It all adds up to a relaxing and memorable camping experience.

Beautiful site, the screen room was a huge bonus! Secluded, quiet and we will definitely be back. Doggo had a blast too!!
This sweet camp site was perfect: private, beautiful surroundings, the sound of the bubbling creek to put you to sleep, well-maintained, and comfortable.
My husband and I stayed for one night at the Lean-to site, very private and quiet. Didn't hear or see anyone (besides Chris) the entire time. Took a quick hike down the switchback to the river, which was a little challenging not having proper hiking shoes on as we had to navigate off the trail to get to the river. Very buggy. Many areas were still pretty slick or at an incline, so be prepared. Chris supplied us with everything we could need for the fire, guest book and a list of close by attractions which was a nice touch.
Outhouse clean and well lit (window) but didn't need to use. Heard many coyotes semi close by for a good 10 minutes after a series of fireworks, that was a special treat. The only down side was the microstorm that ripped through there at 4am on Sunday morning. Waited for a clear moment and left quickly- up to over 40 trees (outside owner's property) totally uprooted , areas flooded. Apart from the storm, we very much enjoyed our stay.
