Best RV Parks & Resorts near Alfred, NY

Several RV parks operate within 30 miles of Alfred, New York, providing various hookup options for motorhome travelers. Maple Lane RV Park in Cuba offers full hookups including 50-amp electric service, water, and sewer connections on mostly gravel sites that accommodate larger vehicles. "We had a 35 foot travel trailer and had zero difficulty backing into a W/E spot. Gravel pads, decent space between RVs," noted one visitor. Misty Mountain RV Park, also in Cuba, features similar amenities with electric, water, and sewer hookups on sites designed for recreational vehicles. Plum Good Campground contains 25 pull-through RV pads with both 30-amp and 50-amp service options, making it suitable for big rig access. Hickory Hill Camping Resort offers 222 sites with full hookups including water, electric, and sewer connections for motorhomes of various sizes.

Most RV parks in the region operate seasonally, typically from April through October, with limited winter availability. Dump stations are available at several facilities, though Hickory Hill and Maple Lane provide sewer hookups directly at campsites. Cell service varies throughout the area, with stronger signals near larger towns. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, water quality can be inconsistent at some locations - one camper recommended using a water filter due to sediment issues. Pet policies differ between parks; Maple Lane and Hickory Hill welcome pets while other facilities may restrict certain breeds or sizes. Propane fill service is limited throughout the region, so travelers should plan accordingly. Road access to most parks involves rural highways with occasional narrow sections, though major routes remain passable for larger motorhomes when navigating carefully.

    Ferenbaugh Campground

    Relaxing place to stay

    This CG has two distinct sections. Near the entrance is the Pull Through Area. Behind a row of trees there are several sites with full hookups including cable TV and Wi-Fi. The sites are open, reasonably level, and a good size. The other sites are in the woods, most of these sites do not have sewer connections. There is a honey wagon service available. We camped with a relative who was new and we were teaching them how to operate their camper. We had a couple of dry days then some rain. Still was a great teaching/learning experience.

    Make sure you use a water filter, there was a lot of sediment in the water when we were there. See pictures of 4 days on a new cartridge.

    We had a fantastic sunrise one morning.

    Letchworth State Park Campground

    Beautiful place

    Letchworth is absolutely stunning. The views are beautiful, however the scenic areas are at least a 10 minute drive from the campground. The park is massive.

    There is a huge variation in site sizes. We lucked out and got a large site with privacy and an area for the kids to run around, however the site directly across from us was little more than the gravel pad and fire pit. Some of the sites are right on top of each other. Great for group camping, not so much if you want any privacy.

    Only two out of the 8 loops (200 and 700 loops) have updated bathrooms (single toilet with handheld showers in half of the bathrooms). The others loops have older facilities with three traditional toilet stalls and two showers.

    We loved our site but would’ve preferred to stay in a loop with the updated bath houses as we have younger children and a tent trailer.

    All sites have electricity. Some loops are pet friendly, some are pet free. The camp store has a good selection of necessities, albeit expensive for discount brands. The pool is 4-5 miles down the road from the camping area.

    Would absolutely camp here again.

    Watkins Glen State Park Campground

    Watkins Glen State Park, New York

    Campers arriving at Watkins Glen State Park are immediately captivated by its dramatic gorge scenery, where 19 waterfalls cascade through narrow stone walls. Their campsites are nestled among hardwood forests, offering a perfect balance of sunlit clearings and shady retreats. Each site comes equipped with a picnic table and fire ring, making it easy to prepare meals after a day spent exploring the park’s famous Gorge Trail. The park’s facilities blend rustic charm with modern comforts: clean flush toilets, hot-water showers, and convenient potable water stations. Hiking enthusiasts appreciate the interconnected trail system, which includes the popular Rim Trail for elevated views of the gorge, as well as more secluded footpaths through hemlock groves. Families particularly enjoy the nearby swimming pool and easy-access picnic areas overlooking Seneca Lake. To simplify travel logistics for out-of-state visitors, many campers opt to pre-book an airport transfer so they can arrive at Ithaca or Elmira–Corning Regional Airport and head straight to the park without the hassle of car rentals. Those planning to explore multiple stops along the Finger Lakes often choose the provider’s reliable city-to-city rides for comfortable, door-to-door transportation between destinations. All in all, Watkins Glen State Park delivers an unforgettable combination of awe-inspiring gorge hikes, well-appointed campsites, and family-friendly amenities. Campers seeking both adventure and relaxation will find this New York treasure hard to surpass.

    Jellystone Park™ of Western New York

    Camping resort in the middle of nowhere

    There was a great WiFi connection, so it was difficult to get my boys to go explore! We have a 35 foot travel trailer and had zero difficulty backing into a W/E spot. Gravel pads, decent space between RVs. We did need our extra hose to reach our spigot but I think that was unusual. The dump station was easy to get to and clean when we left.

    Playgrounds, beach, mini-golf, dog park, bounce pillow, basketball, volleyball, movie nights, wagon rides twice a day with Jellystone characters, lots of daily activities, water park, kayaks, SUP’s, canoes, LIFEGUARDS!... ALL INCLUDED. My kids did mini-golf 4 times. Snack bar (with good wings and delivers!). Golf cart rentals. What was I most impressed with? Trash pickup. You put it in front of your site, somebody picked it up. Any time of day.

    There were three types of cabins I saw, but didn’t go inside. You could fish in the pond. The website says Laser Tag but we didn’t explore that far. The town is teeny tiny so no good grocery store around. The grounds were well kept. Niagara Falls were a little more than an hour away. Great day trip!

    We we will come back next year and bring our cousins!

    Leonard Harrison State Park Campground

    Site 17 Site maps can be deceptive

    General: This is a small 28-site campground located on the east rim of the canyon; seven of the sites are electric and six of them are pet-friendly. We reserved site 17 after looking at the site map because it looked like there was a generous amount of separation between this site and the surrounding ones, however, upon arrival, this was not the case. Although some of the sites are generous in size, there is no physical separation between them. Site 1 would, in my opinion, be the best of the non-electric sites for privacy. Sites 6 and 8, while close to the bathhouse, would likely have people walking through your site to get to the bathhouse. Campers have worn a path between these sites to access it. Props to this park for having recycling bins for plastic, glass, and aluminum. While this park is open year-round, the campground is only open from the second Friday in April through the third weekend in October. 

    Site Quality: The parking pad is delineated by rocks but not very clearly defined. There is a generously sized picnic table and fire ring to complete the grassy site. 

    Bathhouse: Very clean (we have found most Pennsylvania state parks excel in their bathhouse cleanliness). Hot water (definitely appreciated on this cold weekend!) and one handicap accessible shower (but it was too cold while we were there to want to take a shower although it did look inviting). 

    Activities: Two hiking trails on the east rim where the campground is located. The Turkey Path was closed about ¾ mile down (by the waterfall) due to storm damage. Although the trail was clearly marked closed at this point, many chose to ignore it and continue on☹. This trail is challenging as it has steep switchbacks down and back up again and it is narrow and slippery but definitely worth doing. The Overlook Trail, while not long (less than a mile), is also challenging with down and uphills. If you don’t want to (or can’t) access these trails, there is an observation platform where you can enjoy great views of the canyon. All of these trails are accessible from the campground. There is also a long multi-use trail for hiking, bicycling, horseback riding, and cross-country skiing. There is a nice playground accessible from the campground. 

    Conclusion: We were here the last weekend the campground was open and while the fall foliage was not experiencing the best year, it was still very beautiful at this park, and we enjoyed the hikes.

    Keuka Lake State Park Campground

    Wonderful Finger Lakes Camping

    Large grassy sites with privacy between the sites. Most sites have a good level gravel pad to park on. 

    We stayed in the non-electric loop with a small travel trailer, but there are electric sites available. Spigots for water are spaced well enough that with a few lengths you can fill up.

    The hike to the beach wasn't too bad through the woods, with ones being a grassy walking path and the other being a dirt trail through the woods. The beach is typically crowded.

    This is a place I would always recommend.

    Ives Run

    Best campground in Northcentral PA

    Taking everything into consideration, it’s hard to find a nicer campground to stay for a night or two weeks.

    • clean, well maintained and monitored.

    • large sites on macadam pads. Large fields behind most sites for activities.

    • full hook ups available

    • numerous hiking trails, large lake for boating, fishing and swimming.

    • centrally located between Mansfield, Wellsboro and Corning

    *pet friendly. Alcohol allowed

    the only draw back is that it fills up quickly and you need to reserve many months ahead of time especially for holidays. Not group camping friendly because of the reservation system. No pavilions for group activities within the Campground

The area experiences distinct seasons with cold winters and mild summers, typically recording 45-60 inches of annual precipitation. Most campgrounds in the region offer seasonal availability from April through October with limited winter operations.

What to do

Hiking at Letchworth State Park: Located 30 miles from Alfred, the park features over 66 miles of hiking trails through what locals call the "Grand Canyon of the East." One camper noted, "The gorge is spectacular. Try to get to the balloon fest on Memorial Day - and book a flight if you can. Voted Best State Park in the USA."

Water activities at Jones Pond: This secluded campground offers fishing, kayaking and wildlife watching opportunities. According to a visitor, "These sites are great for camping, kayaking, fishing (plenty of catfish!), and watching loons, herons, and bald eagles."

Family recreation at Jellystone Park™ of Western New York: This campground offers comprehensive family entertainment with water features, games, and seasonal activities. "Water park, fishing, kayaking, swimming. It has it all. We went on the 4th of July and they had amazing fireworks and activities galore for the kids," reports one camper.

Explore local towns: Cuba, NY is 15 miles southwest of Alfred and hosts seasonal events. A camper at Maple Lane mentioned, "Went into town on Sunday for a market street festival which was small given COVID guidelines but nice."

What campers like

Privacy and seclusion: Evergreen Trails Campground offers wooded sites for those seeking quiet. A camper describes, "The sites are very secluded though and if you want some peace get one of the sites in the woods and have some time to yourself!"

Family-friendly amenities: Hickory Hill Camping Resort provides numerous recreation options included with your stay. "There is a lot to do at Hickory Hill and everything is included in your site fee. The staff is helpful. They have multiple pools, a sprayground, mini golf, crafts, clean bathrooms and dog stations throughout the grounds," notes a reviewer.

Convenient access to attractions: Many campers appreciate the proximity to natural features and towns. At Letchworth State Park Campground, a camper observed, "The loops near the Lower Falls are our favorites, but any choice is a good one. All are close to the gorge/river and wooded, and connect to trails directly from your campsite."

Seasonal programming: Many rv campgrounds near Alfred, New York offer special seasonal events. At Jellystone Park, a visitor mentioned, "They have the best fireworks for July 4 and their Halloween weekends are full of fun and fright!"

What you should know

Road conditions: Access to some campgrounds involves narrow or rough roads. At Jones Pond Campground, "You will need a high clearance vehicle to access site 3-6 due to a rough, poorly maintained jeep road."

Shower facilities: Facilities vary widely between parks. At Evergreen Trails, "The shower house was clean and nice but did cost money, which I think is not appropriate."

Site selection matters: Many campgrounds have significantly different site types. At Evergreen Trails, a camper mentioned, "I wish I had known the more wooded sites were water and electric. I had full hookup so it was kinda open for my liking."

Reservation timing: Popular campgrounds fill quickly during peak season. For Letchworth State Park, visitors advise, "Book early. Bring your hiking shoes & camera." The most sought-after RV campgrounds around Alfred, New York often require reservations weeks or months ahead, especially for summer weekends.

Tips for camping with families

Activity planning: Hickory Hill Camping Resort offers numerous family activities. "This Campground is a clean, well kept campground with a friendly helpful staff. The amenities are terrific, pools, playgrounds, go carts, ice cream shop along with a well stocked camp store."

Noise considerations: Family-oriented campgrounds can be lively. At Jellystone Park, one camper observed, "We do enjoy a little Jellystone every now and then. I feel like it is pretty crowded. The water area always seems to be over crowded and never enough room for sitting!"

Budget planning: Remember that activity-focused campgrounds often have higher rates. One Jellystone visitor noted, "Expect to pay higher rates, however, because you are being charged for more than just a campsite. There's all the 'extras.'"

Off-season visits: For families seeking fewer crowds at popular destinations, consider shoulder seasons. A Letchworth visitor shared, "I love taking visitors here in all seasons but in autumn it is exceptional."

Tips from RVers

Site access: Summer Haven has limited RV capacity with specific challenges. A recent visitor noted, "Getting into the site was a challenge, but doable with a 16 foot Basecamp. They did have a 120v surge protector on site, and we fortunately had an extension cord."

Power options: Verify electrical service availability and type before booking RV sites near Alfred, New York. At Summer Haven, "This early in the season water was not available, but electricity was. The owner's description noted a 50 amp hookup which was available, but 30 amp was not."

Site surface types: Most RV sites in the region have gravel pads. At Maple Lane RV Park, sites are designed for various RV sizes with appropriate utility connections.

Early/late season considerations: Services may be limited during shoulder seasons. As one camper discovered at Summer Haven in April, "This early in the season water was not available, but electricity was."
