We have three camp sites on a 200-acre parcel of secluded, rural farm land. We are a working pasture based farm where you can see how grass fed beef, pork, chicken, and eggs are produced. There's nothing quite like fresh eggs and bacon after waking up to the sunrise over a fog-filled valley! When you arrive we will provide a complimentary carton of pastured raised eggs and you are welcome to visit our web site (redhouseranch . net) or store to order meats for your stay and/or to take with you upon your departure. We have a wide variety of grass fed beef, pasture raised pork, snack sticks for long hikes, and dog bones and smoked treats for your furry friends. Many of our items are well suited for campfire cooking. Keep in mind that all our products are frozen so be sure to plan for time to thaw. If you're not sure what that involves - we're here to help. We are a working farm but, much of our property is not grazed or farmed. You are welcome to explore the entire area while also getting a glimpse of sustainable, pasture-based, farming methods. Learn more about us and the history of the farm at our website. As you roam the hills and forests you'll eventually bump into some of our animals. Please do not enter the animal enclosures or touch any of the electrified fence lines. If you really want to pet a piggie or hold a chicken - just reach out to Ike or Dave and we will gladly arrange this for you. Red House Ranch is also the perfect spot for wildlife enthusiasts and bird watchers. During your stay you may encounter eagles, blue herons, coyotes, turtles, wild turkeys, foxes, the endangered bobolink bird (its unique call sounds a bit like R2D2), deer, great horned owls, and many unique plants. It's not uncommon to hear the coyotes howling at night. In addition to hiking trails with incredible views, there are four ponds on the property easily accessible with mown paths. One is very large with a dock and suitable for swimming, paddling, fishing, or just relaxing but the water. The other three are smaller and are now primarily wildlife habitat. easily accessible with mown paths If you're feeling adventurous, there is a more strenuous hike down into the creek bed where you can find miniature versions of the gorges and waterfalls that our region is known for. We are happy to provide maps and guidance or leave you to your own devices. When skies are clear our area has very little light pollution and excellent star visibility. It's a great place to view the night sky during a meteor shower. We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we enjoy living in the beautiful Southern Tier/Finger Lakes area!

Paradise on Earth
What a magnificent campsite! I loved absolutely everything about it. I had no problem finding it. Hosts are terrific. Get ready for a warm welcome and camping in paradise. The eggs are delicious !! I had no problem finding just the right place for my 24FT Campervan. I can't wait to return, stay a little longer, learn about their sustainable farming and take home some beef!

Perfect stay at a wonderful farm!
This site is perfect! No hookups, but full sun for solar. We’ve never set up so fast. Lots of deer and wildlife to see at this natural regenerative farm. The hosts were great and so were the steaks and chops we bought there, YUM! There’s a nice little creek you can hike across the road. I’d recommend this spot to anyone!

What a beautiful and peaceful place to spend time as a family. Ike and Dave were kind and thoughtful hosts. They care deeply for their land, animals, and guests. We enjoyed exploring the property - swimming in the pond, saying hi to the animals, and hiking along the creek. The morning and evening views by the campfire were breathtaking at the tent site. The eggs we were given upon arrival and steaks were purchased were delicious. We will absolutely be returning!
