I have only a driveway to offer but it's safe haven, free and includes 15amp hookup (WILL NOT support trailer/camper A/C), water hookup when outdoor temps allow and free, high-speed wifi. I know from my recent travels how awesome it is to have a safe, cheap/free, place to park overnight, even if its a driveway. Suggested Local Attractions: George Eastman Museum, Rochester Science Museum and Planetarium nearby along with many restaurants and brew pubs. The Finger Lakes area is to the south and is a beautiful area, welcoming and full of vineyards and wineries. Lake Ontario is 5miles north.

Happy Grampa, semi-retired Details: I am semi-retired bought my first RV, a Class C, Forest River Sunseeker 2850. My first trip was 6,400 miles from NY to Colorado, Utah, Arizona, Texas, Arkansas, Kentucky, Ohio and back home with my adult daughter and my two pups. We couldn't meet with locals much due to Covid but saw a lot of beautiful country including Rocky Mountain National Park, Arches, Bryce Canyon, Zion, Grand Canyon and White Sands. It reminded me of how much natural beauty our country has to offer. I hope to RV around the country and see much more in the years to come. Home Town: Rochester, NY, upstate Finger Lakes Region. Favorite Boondocking Locations: To be determined and discovered. Skills or Expertise to Share: A committed DIYer, my skill set lies between village idiot and rocket scientist (but closer to the former).

Ray provided us with a lovely place to stay and a wonderful, green, grassy back yard for our Boxer to run! He was so flexible with our schedule and so gracious to allow us to top off our water tank with his water. It was such a pleasure to meet him and we appreciated his hospitality.

Ray was incredibly , hospitable, and welcoming. His home was conveniently located and was easy to access from the highway. His driveway offered a quiet, peaceful stay. He was very understanding when our plans changed due to our daughter being sick. We highly recommend this host!!!
