This is the first time we have used the Boondocker’s Welcome part of Harvest Host and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our hosts were wonderful and so accommodating. we have a 37’ 5th wheel that is over 13’ tall and John took down some branches off a tree and then measured the height to make sure we had enough clearance. There were no leveling issues and having the electric hookup just made this stay perfect. Thank you John and Sue for your wonderful hospitality and kindness. We would definitely love to stay here again.

Great spot, easy to park and the host was very friendly. He helped run power out to our rig when we stayed, which was much appreciated. There was also another camper there at the same time, so plenty of room!

We recently stayed in Keeseville, NY, on the property of John and Sue Sokol. Upon arrival, we immediately felt welcomed and ‘at home’ after being warmly greeted by John. A little while later, we felt just as welcomed when Sue came by to introduce herself. We had a great spot on the property and the location was very convenient to many places, including Lake Placid, Keene Valley, Elizabethtown, the Ausable Chasm, and the Ausable Brewing Company (less than a mile and a half away)! John and Sue were great hosts and we hope to stay with them again. We highly recommend them for a welcoming and relaxing stay!

I strongly recommend this host!!! Sue and John are very nice people, very interesting to talk to and they really care about your well being. They offer me a place to be out of the rain when I was outside. Their place is huge and my dogs, Bella and Jazz enjoyed playing with Penny! Thank you again!!!
