Timberland Realty is pleased to represent Cornell Cooperative Extension of Wyoming County in the sale of approximately 287.08 acres known as “Camp Wyomoco”, a former 4H Camp they own in the Town of Orangeville, Wyoming County, New York. The property is located on Buffalo Road and has approximately 3030 feet of frontage. The main entrance is found at 2780 Buffalo Road.
This is a fantastic opportunity to own an organized camp facility with equestrian facilities and a strong history of campership within the community. The camp has been maintained up to the time of listing and is selling in “turn-key” fashion with just about everything you need to use and maintain the property at the time of acquisition!
As you enter the property you are immediately awestruck by its beauty. The matrix of field, pond, horse corral and barn in the distance, tastefully built and designed camp buildings in their wooded settings and the fantastic view take you immediately to a point of total relaxation. A truly enjoyable outdoor experience is about to begin. The excellent paved internal main road leads to the primary structures and all secondary gravel roads.
All of the buildings on the property are ready for use with just some minor housekeeping. There is a boys & girls lodge (1,488 sf) with 6 bedrooms and 3 full baths (one handicap accessible, Camp Office (510 sf) with half bath, Health Lodge (640 sf) with half bath, has sleeping quarters and is handicap accessible, Wyomoco Lodge (dining hall) (5030 sf) with a complete commercial kitchen and comes with all serving trays, utensils, pots, pans, tables, chairs and service items ready to serve! Two walk-in commercial coolers are on the outside of the kitchen area. A full-length covered porch compliments the building.
The Trading Post is a wood-framed 656 sf structure on the first floor and 500 sf on the second. The building has electric, water and propane along with a half bath outside and a handicapped accessible full bath with shower.
Other buildings include: Staff Lounge/Camp Store (682 sf); the Learning Center/Nature Center (2228 sf) which is a polebarn style building with 2 overhead doors and additional storage; the Directors Cabin (672 sf) with a full bath and propane heat; the Girls Cabins area with 11 rustic cabins (3840 sf total) and bunks with electric; the Boys Cabins area with 7 rustic cabins (2272 sf), bunks and electric; horse barn (3000 sf) with electric and about a one acre riding area; the Maintenance Shed (1008 sf) that comes complete with all equipment necessary to begin operations; a shooting pavilion and archery range round out the primary buildings and structures.
The camp has two (2) shower houses/bathroom facilities on the property. Used as one for boys and one for girls when previously in operation.
The property also is sports-oriented with a full court outdoor basketball court, both a large and small soccer field where the goals/nets come with the property, a kickball diamond and the previously mentioned shooting and archery ranges. In addition, the 3 acre pond is used for canoeing and kayaking and comes with canoes, kayaks, life vests and is ready to use immediately. The pond is also a great place to fish for bass and panfish!
The property is a mix of hardwoods and softwoods throughout and has had some limited timber harvesting in the past. There is good stocking in the hardwoods (hard maple, soft maple, cherry, beech, birch and more) that, if managed property, will provide returns in the future. Multiple hiking trails cross through the wooded portions of the property taking in the vast array of upland and water features alike.
The main trail from the driveway leads south all the way to Stony Creek. Stony Creek is a full-time flowing, slate bottom stream. This is a great place to relax and listen to the stream and take in the sights and sounds of nature.
There is an old spring house on the south end of the property that a neighboring owner does have a deeded right to use and maintain. It is unclear if it is being used or not.
This is a fantastic opportunity to own a functional camping facility with a beautiful pond and equestrian facility in Western New York only 45 minutes from Buffalo! The property is being sold “as-is” and all oil, gas, mineral and timber rights will transfer along with all furnishings and equipment onsite currently.
