Sandbar Farm was purchased as our home and as a place for both sharing our love and knowledge of horses with others and providing a place for animals to re-group and sometimes recover in order to find their perfect human. We have accomplished this goal for many and some, like Nameless the Mustang, have found a permanent safe place here. Over the years, we have found that our human friends and relatives also find the farm to be fun, and a popular place to relax and re-group from everyday life. We hope that you will feel the same way after a visit. Learn more about this land: Beautiful camping spots among the pine trees. Wake up to deer and horses crossing the fields behind you, birds chirping and the fresh air smell of the great outdoors. We have our own fields and wood for hiking, quiet dirt roads for walking or biking with horses often available for trail rides at an extra fee. We are also: 5 minutes from Stony Brook Park with its natural stone spring fed swimming pool and miles of hiking trails along the streams; 35 minutes from Letchworth Park, the Grand Canyon of the East with its amazing waterfalls. Whether it's a big event or the Arkport Summerfest, there's always something fun to do, besides just relaxing. We also offer limited stabling for outside horses so you can enjoy the trails at more than 5 different parks. Phillips Creek/Turnpike Forest/Palmers Pond, Coyle Hill, Sugar Hill, Wag trail, Mendon Ponds and several others. Have a different hobby? Just ask and we'll let you know what's available.

Jackie and Rob’s place was perfect. It’s remote, quiet and very peaceful. It was just me, the deer, the birds and the horses nearby. It was exactly what I needed. I’d certainly return if back in this area.

In the woods

Our Forest Home

OH MAN DOES MY FAMILY LOVE STAYING HERE. This was our third stay (2022, 2023, 2024) and the forest site feels like our little home away from home. Jackie and Rob have been so kind to us, letting our kids interact with their (extremely cool!!!) horses, donkeys, and chickens, and giving us thoughtful extras! Even if we couldn't camp there, I know we would happily return just for the hilarity of Rob's stories. The forest site is like a private little slice of perfection, safe and fun for my kids to explore and discover creatures like toads and salamanders. Having been in late June and mid July, there were indeed a lot of mosquitoes, but when we were there in early September, the forest floor was much drier and mosquitoes were really not noticeable. We love it regardless-- waking up to the sounds of Wood Thrush and Hooded Warbler is priceless to me!! Nearby Stony Brook state park was a wonderful hangout spot for our family too, we loved picnicking, playground, and swimming at the natural swim area (check dates to be sure when it is open). Letchworth SP is further away but ABSOLUTELY worth the visit (we've gone twice)! What a great little spot that we have been fortunate to discover.

Main farm 2

My cat Gabby and I were thrilled to escape the hustle and bustle at this peaceful, secluded property hosted by Jacqueline and her husband Rob. Their warm hospitality shone through when I forgot a container for water, and Jacqueline kindly offered hers without hesitation. Even with rain almost every day, we embraced the natural beauty of the land with a little help from our gracious hosts. Gabby couldn't resist daily strolls, returning from her adventures happily exhausted. Our explorations were made even more special with visits from the friendly horses who didn't let the rain dampen their spirits. We quickly felt right at home in this picturesque setting. Jacqueline's local knowledge further enriched our stay when she suggested a visit to Letchworth State Park to see the breathtaking waterfalls. Taking her advice, we ventured out on the one rain-free day of our trip and were rewarded with stunning views of cascading water amidst a backdrop of vibrant greenery. It was an unforgettable experience! Back at the property, we appreciated the charming one-room cabin, which offered a cozy refuge during rainy moments. Gabby and I found ourselves captivated by the tranquility of this place, and we're already looking forward to another visit to this hidden gem with its delightful hosts.

Main farm 2

We stayed at main farm 2 campsite. The site was clean and well maintained. The hosts were very accommodating and friendly; they gave us some free farm eggs and fire wood. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a quiet site with flat ground and lots of green grass.

Jackie was very accommodating and available when we had questions before and during the trip. The location was great and close to state parks.
