About this property

Escape to Serenity: Off-Grid Cabin on Spring-Fed Pond, Your Private Sanctuary.

Stargazing, Bird Songs & Campfire Nights

Unplug, unwind, and immerse yourself in nature at our charming off-grid cabin, nestled on a peaceful farmstead beside a crystal-clear spring-fed pond. Wake up to mist rising over the water, sip coffee while birdwatching** (Red Winged Black Birds, kingfishers, and warblers and 17 others I have so far identified!), and let the symphony of frogs lull you to sleep.

**Why You’ll Love It:**
✨ **Ultimate Privacy**: Your own slice of wilderness—no neighbors, no noise, just acres of tranquility.
🔥 **Cozy Evenings**: Roast marshmallows under starry skies at your private **fire pit** (wood provided!).
🌙 **Magical Nights**: Ample **outdoor solar lighting** creates a warm, enchanting atmosphere for evening gatherings.
🚶‍♂️ **Nature at Your Doorstep**: Walk to **Canaseraga Creek** for serene wading or fishing, or explore miles of quiet woodland trails right from the property.
🏞️ **Adventure Nearby**: Minutes from legendary **Letchworth State Park** ("Grand Canyon of the East") and **Stony Brook State Park** (waterfalls & gorges!).

**The Cabin:**
• Solar-powered essentials (lights + USB charging)
• Cozy sleeping on one queen and one full futon + basic kitchenette supplies, a table top grill and two burner propane stove (outdoor).
• Privacy tent with self contained flushing toilet and additional tent for dressing and a shower pump.
• Pond access for peaceful paddling (bring your kayak!)
• Farm-fresh eggs available (seasonal)

**Perfect For:**
• Nature lovers & birders
• Couples seeking a digital detox
• Hikers & waterfall chasers
• Writers/artists craving inspiration


**Call to Action:**
**Ready to recharge?** Limited summer dates available!

**Birds we have seen: Rose breasted gosbeaks, Goldfinches, Cardinals, Blue Jays, red-breasted robins, red crowned woodpeckers, downy woodpeckers, crows, Canadian geese, Mallards, red tail Hawks, bald eagles, hummingbirds, red-winged blackbirds, grackles, black-headed Baltimore Orioles and others we have not been able to identify! We have feeders all around the property with different types of seed to encourage a variety of birds to come.
