Best RV Parks & Resorts near Buffalo, NY

468 Reviews

Several RV parks operate within 20-30 miles of Buffalo, with varying site arrangements and hookup options. Southwoods RV Resort near Byron offers full hookup sites with 50-amp electric service, while Niagara Falls Campground provides 103 sites with water, sewer, and electric connections. Niagara Falls/Grand Island KOA Holiday features 213 sites open from April through October with both 30- and 50-amp service options on gravel pads. DINO RV Campground in Cheektowaga maintains a smaller operation with just 3 RV sites. Most parks offer gravel pads with limited spacing between sites. "We were able to park deeper off the road due to the kindness of the owners letting us borrow an extension cord. Behind us was a field and we parked between two trees which was awesome."

The proximity to Niagara Falls influences pricing at many RV parks, with rates typically higher than comparable facilities elsewhere. Full hookup sites with 50-amp service command premium rates, particularly during peak tourist season from May through October. Many campgrounds close entirely during winter months, with seasonal operation spanning approximately April through late October. According to one visitor, "This is an average park, bathrooms were clean, grounds mostly dirt with uneven rock pads. This park anywhere else would be a $40-45 park." Dump stations are available at most locations, including Gander RV which offers sanitary dump and sewer hookups for travelers not staying overnight. Most parks accommodate pets, though some enforce strict leash rules and require proof of rabies vaccination at check-in.

    Evangola State Park Campground

    Some Sites Have a View of Lake Erie

    Unfortunately, my site did not.

    However, my site wasn't crowded and the electricity was reliable. This campground has three loops. One has 30 amp power, one has 50 amp power (with a 30 amp outlet on the same pedestal) and the third loop is for tent camping. There are several places to get water in the camp, so be sure to fill up your tanks before you park. There is a dump station. None of the sites are full hook up.

    Each site has a picnic table and a grill.

    There are two bath houses. The newer one - between loops one and three - also has laundry facilities.

    Your payment for your campsite entitles you to admission to the beach, which is a hike or a drive away.

    Four Mile Creek State Park Campground

    Simple campground on Lake Ontario

    We stayed here because it was near Niagara Falls and had site availability. We stayed at a non-electric campsite (mid-June). There were 4 other campsites occupied in our area. We have a camper van with solar power and fresh water. There is a shower in the non-electric section but it's not heated water. Since it's June, the temperature was only mildly shocking to my senses. However, the rest of the showers in the campground are heated (we checked). There are at least two laundry facilities. I actually exchanged cash for quarters at the front office. The grounds are well maintained. Beware of the resident skunk that walks around. I didn't test the cell signal here but I was able to work remotely and video chat.

    Cinderella Motel & Campsite

    Basic, Convenient, VFM (value for money)

    This campground is very basic with very close campsites.  The bathhouse and laundry are old but clean.  The staff were very friendly and helpful.  It is very close to Niagara falls and for the money it is the best campground here.  KOA and Branches CGs are nicer but they are also triple the price which for us did not seem worth it.  We were in a back in gravel site that backed up to the motel which may not seem that nice but the electric, water and sewer worked perfectly.  Our 40 foot MH and Toad fit with room to spare.  There were sites that were on the outskirts of the property that backed to the woods which some people may prefer.  Those sites were just as close although there were several that would take big rigs bit don't expect to open your awnings in most sites.   There is a nice grassy area in the center with a small covered pavilion.   There are a few sites on the side/front of Motel.  We were here to visit Niagara Falls so location and a basic campground with full hookups was all we were looking for and this campground fit our needs perfectly.  We would stay here again.

    Niagaras Lazy Lakes Camping Resort

    Clean & Friendly

    We have camped here several times. Bathrooms are very clean along with the showers. They are cleaned on a daily basis. Store on site has just the bare amenities. Big clubhouse, 2 heated pools and a pond to fish (catch & release). Sites are big. Pet friendly. Staff are very friendly. 10-15 minutes from Niagara Falls and close to stores. It does have 2 on site laundry facilities but the dryers take a while. Enjoy going there.

    AA Royal Motel & Campground

    An old campsite that fits our needs

    This is not a resort campground nor is it a campground built for escapism. It’s very close to Niagara Falls, the Rainbow Bridge (for driving into Canada), and Buffalo, NY.

    Mike is very friendly; check in was easy. The sites are full hook up or w/e only. There are pull throughs and back-ins, 30amp and 50amp sites. Your site is assigned once you arrive. You pay a deposit when you book and pay the rest when you arrive.

    They have Good Sam and weekly discounts and I was also given a cash/check discount. So our total was $51 a night for a week’s stay.

    The sites toward the front are definitely more level and have better cell service, but the sites toward the back are better shaded. Cell service and wifi was enough for me to work during the week and stream at night.

    The facilities could use some work. They are very old, and it’s hard to tell if they are clean or just old. Laundry is available - $2.50 a wash/$1.75 a dry.

    Basically, don’t expect a beautiful vacation campground. I work full time remotely from the camper. I was able to work during the days and get to Niagara Falls, CAN, and Buffalo quickly after work. Even with the discount, which I’m thankful for, it is overpriced for what it is. But it served my needs, I felt safe, and the owner was friendly so 3 stars. With some TLC to the sites and the facilities, I’d give it 4.

    Darien Lakes State Park Campground

    Clean/Quiet Campground

    9/25-9/29/22- The park was nearly empty, perhaps 6 or 8 other campers widely spread out. It was immaculate and the sites well spaced apart. All site have a picnic table and fire pit. Ours had both 30A and 50A power, was pretty level left/right but about 6” high in front before we leveled our 34’ fifth wheel. The park has drinking water faucets at a variety of places throughout, but site#15 has a faucet directly next to it, so we had water available too. Both AT&T 4G and Verizon 5G had 3 bars reception. The dump station was clean and convenient. It looked like a great place for kids that included at least one (probably more) playground.

    AA Royal Motel & Campground

    Good location

    This campground is open year around which is really hard to find in this area. We needed to come here for personal reasons before any other campground was opened. So far this isn’t bad could be better/ cleaner.

    It is 50 amp full hook up with free Wi-Fi that doesn’t suck.

    The site are paved level back ins and pull throughs

    The staff was nice enough. Haven’t had much interaction with him.

    There is a great Italian store right across the street and Niagara Falls down the road. I would stay here in a pinch again

Guide to Buffalo

RV parks near Buffalo, New York provide convenient access to Niagara Falls and other attractions in Western New York. Most campgrounds in the region operate seasonally from April through October, closing during harsh winter months. Sites typically feature gravel pads with varying levels of privacy and spacing between neighboring campers.

What to do

Visit Niagara Falls State Park: Located approximately 20 minutes from Niagara Falls/Grand Island KOA Holiday, this natural wonder attracts visitors year-round. "You can schedule tours of the falls in the office. Tour bus stops at office. Restaurants nearby," notes Mike H.

Explore local attractions: Family-friendly activities abound near campsites. "The proximity to the Falls makes this a great stop for a sight seeing road trip," says Brett A. Many campgrounds provide information about nearby attractions and some even offer transportation options.

Enjoy on-site recreation: Many campgrounds feature recreational facilities for when you're not sightseeing. Southwoods RV Resort offers "2 well kept pools, playgrounds, laundry facilities, mini golf, soccer, basketball," according to Hope C., making it ideal for days when you don't want to venture far from camp.

What campers like

Well-maintained facilities: Campers consistently mention clean facilities as a highlight. At Skyline RV Resort, Paul G. notes it's "Clean and well maintained," though he adds that sites can be "a little tight if you like to spread out."

Family-friendly environments: Many RV parks welcome families with children. Cara B. describes Niagara Falls/Grand Island KOA as "Great for families. Very safe, spaces were a bit small for a tent site. Great amenities pool/showers/games for kids."

Helpful staff: Friendly service makes a difference at many campgrounds. At Southwoods RV Resort, visitors appreciate the personal touch: "The owner took us around on a golf cart to show us how different some areas are within the campground. Very nice people from weekend warriors to the seasonal campers," reports Rich L.

What you should know

Seasonal operation: Most RV parks near Buffalo close during winter months. Niagara Falls Campground & Lodging operates from "April 1 - October 31" and is "Closed from November 1 - March 31," making advance planning essential for fall visits.

Noise considerations: Some campgrounds experience noise from nearby roads or trains. Patty M. describes Niagara Falls Campground as "Really not what I consider camping. Close to Niagara Falls, clean bathrooms," highlighting that convenience sometimes comes with urban noise.

Price variations: Prices can fluctuate based on season and proximity to attractions. "This is an average park, bathrooms were clean, grounds mostly dirt with uneven rock pads. The management was helpful and pleasant. This park anywhere else would be a $40-45 park," notes Ed G. about comparative pricing.

Tips for camping with families

Look for kid-friendly amenities: Choose campgrounds with dedicated facilities for children. Red Rock Ponds RV Resort provides options for families, though Eric B. notes it was "kinda close to other campers. Geared toward more seasonal campers."

Consider location for day trips: Stay at campgrounds with convenient access to family attractions. Nancy G. mentions that Niagara Falls/Grand Island KOA offers "Fun activities for all ages of children. Clean facilities," making it a good base camp for families.

Book early for summer months: Family-oriented campgrounds fill quickly during school breaks. Cheryl M. recommends Southwoods RV Resort as a "Family friendly park, lots of activities, park hosts/owners are hands on and awesome," but availability can be limited during peak season.

Tips from RVers

Site selection matters: When booking, ask about site dimensions and surface type. Nancy W. from Niagara Hartland RV Resort reports "Not bad, pond was great for the dogs but it's a little run down here & lots of seasonal sites. Looks more like a trailer park."

Hookup options vary: Confirm available hookups before booking. Thomas S. shares about Niagara Falls/Grand Island KOA: "We arrived late and our site info was in the night drop so all good. It is right off the roadway so there is some road noise."

Consider staying outside peak areas: Campgrounds further from major attractions often offer better value. Kirk S. notes about Niagara Falls/Grand Island KOA: "Internet is really good and has been upgraded recently with 2G and 5G access. Bathrooms are clean and functional. Staff is very polite."
