BeaverWood Farm (no children)

50 sites · RVs, Tents15 acres · Ferndale, NY

We are a 15 acre farm on the shores of Swan Lake with plenty of campsites sites on the property, accommodating tents, mid sized campers and RV's. No children under 16 please. Depending on how crowded we are, privacy varies, but on most weekends you can be out of site of other campers. Many campsites have fire-pits already, but you're welcome to make your own anywhere you'd like. While camping, you may be visited by over 100 friendly, free roaming FARM ANIMALS! (We just had BABY GOATS born in early May and expect more at the end of June!) You may feed the animals anything you bring, but please don't let them eat plastic bags! We cannot offer reimbursement for tents damaged by animals. This is extremely rare, but it CAN happen. If you do not wish to put your tent at risk, please do not camp here. The farm was once an old bungalow colony and has some glass and metal still in the soil. Please wear shoes. Firewood is available at several locations around the farm. There is a heated sink and shower in the back corner of our main camping area. Boats are available at our lakeside dock, so you can boat to our corner store or venture into the wild north end of Swan Lake. There's a tall mountain for hiking and an awesome secret swimming hole, both within a 10 minute drive. Enjoy a child free visit, as we do not allow children under 16 years old.

Kelsey Creek Field and Valley

2 sites · RVs, Tents23 acres · Afton, NY

Learn more about this land: Reservations are open year-round. We welcome all types of campers, including RVs under 28 feet. Campers will enjoy a lovely mix of New York wilderness and wildlife, but the property is only a mile from local restaurants, shops, and the quaint town of Afton. We have one space for an RV on a gravel pad, but depending on your vehicle's off-road ability and/or how dry it is, you are welcome to park a little further away from the road and closer to the wildlife. Site 1 is the gravel pad for RVs. There are no RV hookups and the site is close to the road. Site 2 is parking your vehicle or RV anywhere on the property. If your vehicle has 4-wheel drive, you can use the road down to the valley. The top 4 acres is a cleared, gently sloping field that goes back 600 feet from the road to a ridge of trees, where the largest part of the property starts. There is a road that was cut down to the valley (about 70 feet of descent) that is an easy walk. Although the top property has some spots with nice views, the true beauty of the property is the valley and the flowing creek. One-half of the lower property is a pine forest with many great camping spots for those who don't mind carrying their gear. The other half, where the road ends, is an open meadow. Vehicles with 4-wheel drive can park in the meadow next to the creek. When the wild plants of the meadow are high, I will cut a path through it for convenient access to the creek and other favorite spots. The crystal-clear, unpolluted creek has two places to swim, about 3-5 feet deep (depending on the season and what changes the last rains made), and is full of crayfish, salamanders, and even brook trout if you like to fish. My two boys (aged 9 and 11) never tire of exploring the forest, brook, and wildlife with me, and a dip in the cool brook is refreshing on a hot day. About a mile from the property, in town, there is a place to park for kayaking or fishing on the Susquehanna River. Oquaga State park is only 23 minutes away with fishing, boating, and a sandy beach on Arctic Lake. I hope you will have a lovely time camping with us! Occasionally, there are two noise-making businesses that you may want to know before booking. There is a private shooting club about 2.5 miles away that is open on the weekends. Normally we don't hear them, but they do occasionally, a couple times a year, have events that we hear. There is also a race track about 2 miles away that you can hear from the property on race nights, which are usually once a month on a Friday, but they occasionally have additional special events. If you are looking for long-term camping, please let me know as we will definitely do discounts for weekly or monthly stays. Tiny Homes are also welcome.

Steady Slope Fields and Forest

3 sites · Lodging, Tents58 acres · Delhi, NY

This land was once all pasture for grazing animals. We moved to Delaware County in November 2018 to start our family and pursue dreams of working on the land. The initial idea was to find a place we could live, garden, and raise a few animals while hosting guests and sharing the land with visitors. When we found this place on Williams Road, we loved the mix of rural and proximity to a thriving country town. We now have two kids and enjoy living in Delhi so much we hardly leave the town limits! There are wonderful restaurants, a great year-round farmers market, grocery stores, and many other services and amenities you can find listed towards the end of this guide. Our Catskill Mountain home is situated on a historic early 19th century farm site. Parts of the house might be more than 190 years old! With several additions and upgrades we think the house has lots of charm and enjoy the many modern touches. The property is overgrown pastures and a few steeper slopes with medium growth trees. After the industrial period saw this region nearly deforested, the land was granted to settlers who cleared fields and planted grass. Our immediate vicinity was knows for it’s cattle (Bovina), mostly for diary, and sheep. The agriculture in Delaware County has been on a decline since the advent of rail shipping opened New York City markets to farms in less challenging geographies. Construction of the NYC fresh water system (DEP Watershed) may have contributed to this decline, but about 60-70 years ago the majority of pastures, especially less productive parcels were abandoned to the “weed trees”. These first succession trees grew quickly in the sunny meadows and covered the hills; trees such as Ash, Hawthorn, and Norway Spruce. Fences and barns were left to return to the earth. On our property the stone walls that boarder the fields are the most stark reminder of the intensive agriculture practiced here.
