The River's Edge campsites sit on the shoreline of the Delaware River at the western edge of New York State overlooking the mountains of Pennsylvania. Our canvas tents and open air platforms perch between the river and the former Delaware & Hudson Canal which was once was used to transport raw goods by barge to New York City via the 'port' of Port Jervis. The remnants of the canal walls are throughout the property including a 300 person theater which we created to both preserve and feature this industrial history. It also makes a great place for an event or a movie night. Today, the original canal towpath, along which barges would be pulled and floated downstream, is a trail that links all of the campsites over 5 acres and at the furthest end an eel fishing camp that is in operation from June to October (say 'hi' to Jim). In the early 1900s, the train replaced the canal as the primary method of moving goods into New York and if you are lucky — you will hear the train rumble by along the river on the Pennsylvania side. There is something spectacular in the absolute still and grandness of the river, the mountains and the ongoing industrial history of the valley. It is a reminder of the way things used to be.

River's Edge Sunrise
Thomas is a great host through in some freebies and was very knowledgeable about the area. We were first time at his property. He was very hospitable. He even gave us access to a Airbnb that he wasn’t using an order to give us some extra accommodations would highly recommend paying a visit. and what a beautiful view of the river truly worth the visit

We loved camping at Sunrise Edge! Thomas was extremely understanding and accommodating. The heated tents were a life saver and just having everything ready before we arrived was so wonderful. We will definitely come back!

River's Edge on the Canal
Cozy and Intimate
This is our second time visiting Rivers Edge. Such a cozy environment with such an involved host. Had everything needed aside from food, drink and any other personal items. We can’t wait to come back and try out the other campsites until we’ve experienced them all.

River's Edge on the Canal
Perfect camping set up
This is an amazing camping/glamping site where they’ve really thought of everything to create an easy and seamless stay! Two of us are experienced campers and we pitched a tent in the ample mulched space provided. Two were new to camping (and one was 7 years old!) and they stayed in the canvas tent. It’s perfect for a first camping experience because it’s so easy. The lights were really cute, the grill, cookware, and table settings made dinner a breeze, and the provided chairs were comfy for lounging. You can see and occasionally hear the other camp sites, but they were very well spaced and it felt private. We especially loved how it was right on the river and had beautiful river views! The 7 year old went wading even in October. The site was described as “simply perfect” by a first time camper, and we’d love to come back!

Forest Overlook
Loved the space, nice and woodsy and the flattened spots for tents were nice and cozy. A great spot to camp if you want to enjoy a little seclusion while still being close to stores and restaurants if you need them

The Lagoon
Camping with a gorgeous view
We had an amazing stay at this Lagoon campsite! Everything was perfect—from the stunning views to the well-maintained accommodations. The host was incredibly helpful, providing clear guidance on what to bring and offering great hiking suggestions. We had everything we needed and more. The tents, toilet, and cooking utensils were spotless, and the propane grill worked perfectly for burgers. The only downside was the outdoor shower attached to a small shack. While we didn’t mind using an outdoor shower, it was located in someone’s yard. When we went to use it, a birthday party was happening, which made things a bit awkward. We ended up just rinsing off while chatting with the guests! A partition would be a great addition to give guests more privacy in that situation. Other than that, I highly recommend this campsite and plan to return in the future!
