Whetstone Gulf

Fun, remote and quiet state park. The gorge trail was a fun challenge. We also biked around all the other paths and roads.

I almost hesitate to tell others about this park in fear that it might become a destination. Part of its exquisite charm is that it's practically abandoned most of the time. In my opinion, Whetstone puts Letchworth to shame. The rim trails, while not for the faint of heart, will definitely remind you that you are alive. It's an invigorating hike (watch your step) through a variety of woods with jaw-dropping views.

Beautiful place to take a walk. Im amazed that this isnt more publicized. There are a lot of spots along the trail with incredible views. The bulk of the views are towards the top end of the ravine. The first few times I didnt reach the best part but recently I finally finished the loop and It was a total shocker. It has a mountain climbing feel to it and there is an amazing boidiversity. The trail runs about 3 miles up the ravine and loops back down. Well maintained and very nice staff. Playground, swimming area that is like a small beach, restrooms, camping areas, picnic areas and dogs allowed. Will want to be very careful with children on the trails because of the huge cliffs and steep conditions on trail.

First time out in the new camper. Very pleased with our stay. Beautiful park with decent amenities. Whether camping or day use Whetstone Gulf is a place of natural beauty just waiting for you to come discover it.

Checked in on a Wed eve. Easy check-in, friendly workers.$5 per pack of wood. It was fairly empty an quiet. When we left it was almost full. Campsite was clean, large and well maintained. Our site had 2 picnic tables also a small path going out to the swimming/playground area. There is several hiking trails with the largest being around a 5 mile loop trail around a gorge. Trail is what one would expect for being in the woods beside a gorge. Roots from the trees, carpets of pine needles, sheer drop offs and lots of interesting flora/fauna, be prepared if you plan to go. If you leave the campgrounds you can go up (on gravel, no maintenance roads) to the reservoir, for swimming, fishing, canoeing etc... if you brought atv's even better !! They are welcome and we met several. There are several restrooms and the one we used was clean and stocked. Our children loved the playground and if you like to bike, the roads around the campgrounds were paved. Also dogs are allowed if that is a point of interest to you. Enjoy !!
