Mid-May – October
The Genesee River carves a 17-mile gorge 600 feet deep through Letchworth's western New York holdings — a landscape Forbes and USA Today have ranked the East's top state park multiple times running. The 270-site campground (Section A through Section F) holds 30/50-amp electric hookups at a 40-ft cap, mid-May through October operation, with the dump station near the camp entrance. Reservations open 9 months ahead through ReserveAmerica and summer weekends fill within the first day. The Middle Falls, Upper Falls, and Lower Falls cascades total 600+ feet of vertical drop. Hot-air balloon rides launching from the park's south end are a signature shoulder-season activity. The Mary Jemison statue and gravesite commemorates the "White Woman of the Genesee" whose 1758 capture and subsequent 70-year life among the Seneca remains one of the most documented frontier captivity narratives.
