Best Cabin Camping near Westfield, NY

Several state parks and private campgrounds near Westfield, New York provide rustic cabin rentals with varying amenities. Allegany State Park offers cabins in both the Quaker and Red House areas, with wood-burning stoves for heat during cooler months. According to one visitor, "The cabins are perfect for cooler temperatures and cozying up beside the wood stove. The table and chairs provided inside the cabin are perfect for eating on and prepping food." Lake Erie State Park Campground features basic cabins with electricity, while Chautauqua Lake KOA provides more furnished options. Most cabins include beds, tables, and chairs, with outdoor fire rings and picnic tables. Bathroom facilities are typically centralized rather than in-unit, with shower houses located within walking distance of cabin loops.

Rustic cabins predominate in the region, though amenities vary significantly between locations. Willow Bay Recreation Area offers small cabins with twin beds, bunk beds, and wall-mounted heaters, but requires guests to bring their own bedding. Pet-friendly cabins are available at several locations, including Sparrow Pond Family Campground and Evangola State Park, though New York State parks require proof of rabies vaccination for dogs. The Red House Area of Allegany State Park remains open year-round, making it suitable for fall and winter cabin camping. One camper noted, "We have made it an immediate family tradition to stay here for Thanksgiving. This place is great for family camping. It has a nice variety of cabins along several loops. Cabins range from rustic to downright homey."

Most forest cabins in the area require visitors to bring their own linens, pillows, and cooking equipment. Basic cabin rentals typically include electricity but may lack running water inside the units. Refrigerators and cooking facilities vary widely between locations, with some offering only outdoor fire rings with grates for cooking. Cell service is limited or nonexistent at more remote cabin sites like those at Willow Bay and parts of Allegany State Park. The nearest full-service grocery stores are located in larger towns, so cabin campers should arrive with essential supplies. Firewood is generally available for purchase at campground offices or from hosts, though prices and availability vary by season.

    Willow Bay Recreation Area

    Quiet nights, Easy days

    Willow bay campground is run by the National Forest Service. The reservable lots are wide and numerous for a out of the way sight. The campground services tent sites, RV sites as well as small cabins with electricity. There is a central bathhouse near the oak loop. Closer to the boat ramp sites- most of which are tent ready, there are vault toilets. These sites are less than a mile from the North Country Trail. Other, smaller trails are here as well. The New York State lone is less than five miles away- providing access to Allegheny State Park. The closest town of note is Bradford, which is about 18 miles away. It has all you need to get your necessities. The cabins were small- one twin bed and a set of single bunks. You need to bring your own sheets. There is a small heater imbedded in the wall. It keeps things from getting too cold, as it was when I was there. Fire ring and picnic table provided. Charcoal grill as well. The only problem I had was with the wildlife. A mouse or something kep crawling in the space between the roof and ceiling. There is no cel service here, and you shouldn’t need it either. Places to visit are too numerous to mention, but I will give a shout out to the zippo case museum, absolutely a must.

    Evangola State Park Campground

    Great campground

    We stayed here three nights to ride out a heat wave and really liked it. Sites are electric only, with a dump station available at the entrance and one in the campground loop. There are potable water spigots throughout the campground, where you awkwardly pull over to the side of the road and fill your tank. Sites are pretty much wide open, with zero separation between you and your neighbor. Most are out in direct sun but the ones along the edge have some tree cover and shade. 

    There are yurts here as well, and a playground, and a huge disc golf course. You can walk to the beach from the campground (dogs aren’t allowed on the beach). The nature center is right in the campground, by the basketball and tennis courts. 

    Showers were dirty and buggy, but they’re free and you can actually choose your own water temperature. NY State campgrounds require proof of rabies vaccinations for your dogs.

     Good cell reception for Verizon, ATT wasn’t great but the cell booster helped. Trash bins, but no recycling. Beautiful sunset on the lake.

    Dewdrop

    Spacious

    Campsite layouts are non traditional with large driveways and often times the tables and fire rings are below the driveway.  With this layout you get more privacy with very few sites having and overlapping with other sites. Pitching a tent was easy on the driveway and fairly level. Some sites had large high sided fire rings which take away from the fireside relaxation of a shorter camp chair. 

    Bathrooms and shower house was below the standards of many of PA State Parks which we regard as the benchmark for campgrounds at reasonable prices. 

    Boating and biking all accessible from the grounds. No need to drive to the trails at Jakes Rocks.

    Quaker Area — Allegany State Park State Park

    Quaker Area- Buffalo Cabin #8

    We head out to Allegany State Park every year in late fall. The cabins are perfect for cooler temperatures and cozying up beside the wood stove. The table and chairs provided inside the cabin are perfect for eating on and prepping food. 

     The buffalo trail is perfect for a weekend getaway, with Cabin 8 far in the corner, providing lots of space between nearby cabins. It is also beside the river and provides a wonderful sound to fall asleep to.

    Shower facilities are just down the road and were very clean! The bathroom facilities on the buffalo cabin loop are also equally clean and warm in the colder temperatures!

    Bova Cottages — Allegany State Park

    A lot of space

    The water is easy to find, bathrooms are available with showers, and the options are tents, cabins, or RV camping. Do not leave food out. The bears are very ambitious.

    Willow Bay Recreation Area

    Willow Bay

    The camp grounds were great. Staff was very helpful and nice. Camp sites were decently spaced out. Fire wood was priced fairly well but they don’t usually deliver($).and they sell worms at the gate along with ice.

    The RVs had their own loop and tents and cabins were on the water down a wooded trail.

    The reason this was 4/5 is because you have to unload the car then walk everything to the camp. There is no drive up access for tent camping. A wagon is highly encouraged

    Additionally, vault toilets on the tent side and plumbing and showers on the RV side. Bathrooms were very clean and didn’t smell, the showers were hot.

    I saw some boats anchored at sites which I thought was nice. I also got to peek into a cabin and it was pretty cozy.

    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.

    Quaker Area — Allegany State Park State Park

    Gem of a park in Upstate NY

    We come here every summer. This park is massive with two distinct zones in the park and over a dozen individual campground loops. There's also two beaches, over a dozen hiking trails, a restaurant, camp stores, a dump station, and more. Note that on the Quaker side of the park, there is very limited cell service, and that many of the cabins do not have running water inside.


Guide to Westfield

Cabin accommodations near Westfield, New York range from basic shelters to more equipped options across several state parks and private campgrounds. The region sits along Lake Erie's shoreline, with elevations ranging from 570 to 2,500 feet across the broader area. Fall temperatures can drop into the 30s at night, making wood stoves and heaters important considerations for shoulder season cabin stays.

What to do

Sunset viewing at Lake Erie: Lake Erie State Park Campground offers prime sunset viewing locations within walking distance of cabin sites. "Short walk from campsite to the lake. Try to see sunset!" notes camper Layla P. The park also features "breathing room between sites" and clean facilities.

Hiking at Allegany State Park: With extensive trail networks in both the Quaker and Red House areas, hiking opportunities abound. "We camped here with one of our children, and hiked a couple of trails, that were beautiful!" shares Trina W. about the Quaker Area — Allegany State Park.

Water activities on Chautauqua Lake: The Chautauqua Lake KOA provides access to lake activities with cabin options ranging from basic to deluxe. One visitor noted, "Night sky was perfect for viewing stars!" Cabins here are typically more furnished than state park options.

What campers like

Lakefront cabin access: Several parks offer cabin sites with water views. One visitor to Lake Erie State Park Campground mentioned, "The campsite was very well maintained, with breathing room between sites. It was very quiet for most of my time."

Winter cabin options: The Red House Area — Allegany State Park stays open year-round, unlike many other area campgrounds. A camper shared their experience: "The Red House Administration building is a great central location to meet up with other camping families. Staff is super friendly & helpful."

Fishing opportunities: Many cabin locations offer access to fishing. At Erie KOA, a camper reported, "The kids enjoyed fishing in the pond and were able to catch a large small mouth bass and lots of blue gills." Some cabin sites are situated directly alongside fishing spots.

What you should know

Cabin styles vary significantly: Basic cabins typically have electricity but may lack running water. At Sparrow Pond Family Campground, "Spots are VERY close together despite the fact it was off season, owners packed everyone into a single location."

Seasonal considerations: Most campgrounds in the area close by mid-October. Lake Erie State Park operates from April 29 to October 10, with limited off-season options. One camper noted Harecreek Campground has "100 psi on their water lines" so water pressure regulators are necessary.

Wildlife awareness: Black squirrels, rabbits, and various birds are common at most campgrounds. A Lake Erie State Park visitor mentioned: "We saw lots of wildlife (black squirrels, rabbits and birds)," adding that despite the campground being full, "it was quiet since I like to retire early."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Most family-oriented campgrounds feature playgrounds. At Erie KOA, a visitor reported, "The playground got 2 thumbs up from a 4 and 6 year old. There was a movie night every night." The campground also features a "gaga ball pit" popular with kids.

Cabin selection for groups: At Allegany State Park, "Cabins range from rustic to downright homey" and are arranged in loops. The campground has "a nice variety of cabins along several loops," making it suitable for family gatherings where multiple cabins might be needed.

Beach activities: Several campgrounds offer beach access, though water conditions vary. At Evangola State Park Campground, "The lake was nice, but wear water shoes, as the rocks stick up and are sharp in spots." Some beaches may have seasonal maintenance issues.

Tips from RVers

Site selection: At most campgrounds, RV cabin sites offer more privacy than tent cabin sites. "The campsites were pretty close together and did not offer much privacy unless you had a camper," noted one visitor to Allegany State Park.

Off-season options: When cabin camping with an RV in cooler months, check which campgrounds remain open. One camper mentioned that the Red House Area at Allegany "has nice and clean" cabins that "seem to be well kept and quiet everytime I've stayed in them."

Hookup availability: RV sites with cabins typically offer electric hookups, while water connections vary by campground. A visitor to Lake Erie State Park noted, "The water hookups are NOT at each site, but there is one CLOSE to each site, so you can run your house over, fill your tank, and disconnect."
