10820 State Route 36
Dansville, NY 14437

Stony Brook State Park, nestled in Dansville, NY, boasts a rugged gorge set amidst the picturesque rolling hills of Western New York. Visitors can revel in the park's stunning scenery through a range of activities such as camping, picnicking, swimming, and hiking. The North Entrance beckons day-use guests with a host of amenities including picnic areas, playgrounds, natural stream-fed pools, and access to hiking trails.

Hikers can traverse three trails, each approximately a mile long with staircases adding to the moderate difficulty level. The highlight is the Gorge Trail, offering a scenic route passing by three major waterfalls. For those seeking a more elevated perspective, the Rim Trails wind through woodlands overlooking captivating waterfalls and rock formations.

Accommodation options include 88 campsites, a group campsite, and eight rustic cabins located in the woodlands above the gorge at the South Entrance. The campground, devoid of electric or water hookups at sites or cabins, features public restrooms in each loop and a dump station. Additionally, the park provides two rentable picnic shelters ideal for gatherings and events.
