Had a wonderful experience! The hospitality was great and my sons had a blast playing with their lovely daughter. Will be coming back!

Thank you, Jessica! This experience was great. We had an easy time finding the spot thanks to Jessica's clear directions, and we had no issues during our stay. The land is beautiful, and we had a truly pleasant time.

Weekend Trip to Hucklebuck Railway Campsites

Great camp site with so much included! The tent is well maintained and the mattress is new. We didn't need the second big tent, but would be good if we had friends with us. And the hosts are super friendly and very responsive if you need more gas for the grill, water, or wood for the fire pit. Would highly recommend.

3 nights at Issac’s Endless Acres

My stay at Isaac's property was wonderful! He was very communicative. Gave recommendations on where to set up camp, gave detailed instructions and checked in. He offered us water from his well. I brought my dogs and it was wonderful to just let them run wild and not have to worry about any cars or any other groups of people. Will definitely be back again!

Weekend Trip to Greener Pastures Camp

We recently spent a wonderful weekend despite the hot weather. We loved having the spot to ourselves. The campsite was well-maintained, with plenty of space for us to set up our tent and potty tent. The field at night lit up with lightning bugs was amazing! Jess was very communicative and very patient with our two young boys. They loved the chickens! We definitely will come back!

Weekend Trip to Upper Shire Campsites Hudson Valley

Loved the location and accommodations. Fire pit ready to go with stocked wood. Outdoor shower was great. Quick ride to town and easy to find. 10 out of 10!

Weekend Trip to Forest Treasure Island

We had a great camping experience in the woods! The property is beautiful, with its own farm, garden, and cozy patios equipped with BBQ grills—perfect for relaxing and enjoying nature. Even though we were switched from the Cabbage Tent to a regular tent, our host Diana went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Her hospitality truly made the stay memorable. Highly recommend!

1 night at Hucklebuck Railway Campsites

We ended up staying a day later because the place was so lovely. Lots of different kind of plants everywhere. The swim hole was lovely. This had everything my small family wanted - a simple and beautiful vacation. The fireflies add to the magic at dust. I love that it's just 30 minutes from me as well.

1 night at Forest Treasure Island

My cousin and I rent camped on Jan’s property and it was the highlight of our camping trip. They were lovely, welcoming, and we felt safe and slept well. The animals were fun to watch and play with. Thanks again!

2 nights at Hucklebuck Railway Campsites

The campsite was great, didn’t need to bring much. The tarp covering the kitchen/dining area excellent for shade or rain. Trail to river was easy and marked, Everything was as described. The pre-arrival instructions very helpful. The hosts, Paula and Bill, communicated well and readily available. Would definitely visit again.

Weekend Trip to Pegasus Farms LLC

As a family from a few towns over we never expected to find this unique spot in Terryville. The camping was nice and private despite other campers staying at other sites. The hosts were our favorite hosts out of all of the camping we’ve done. We cannot wait to come back!

1 night at Quentins Treehouse

a magical little place! it truly was the closest you could get to sleeping comfortably in a tree. clean and surprisingly not many bugs outside for being on a lake in june. and was very impressed with how screened in the treehouse itself was. great for two people or if you wanted to have a solo getaway. it was such a peaceful experience!

1 night at Pegasus Farms LLC

Great host, beautiful site...lots of room for privacy. Great amenities. Will definitely come back!

Weekend Trip to Upper Shire Campsites Hudson Valley

Our group loved staying at the Upper Shire tent site. It was spacious and private with shade available for ~3 tents, a fire pit surrounded by adirondack chairs, and hammocks. The port a potty was clean and the shower hut was a dream. The paths through the property were beautiful and our dog loved splashing around in the pond, though we didn’t get around to using the canoe ourselves. Also, there were magically no bugs at all? I don’t understand the science of that but we were not complaining. Fireflies all night long. We can’t wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to Fernwood on Alan F.’s Land

Had a wonderful time camping at Fernwood 2! Perfect space to sit tent camp and have a fire with the picnic table close by. Absolutely would recommend.

Weekend Trip to Turtle Bend Farm

Great spot. Quiet, private. No complaints. Would return again. Had a good laugh watching a baby sheep get out and the owner chase it down.

Weekend Trip to Atland Artist Residency

Beautiful spot. Very well maintained! Loved the outside shower.

Weekend Trip to Quentins Treehouse

This dreamy lakefront treehouse was magic—you can watch the clouds roll by, it’s so peaceful and looks out onto Lake Garfield. The bed swings gently as you fall asleep under the stars, with all the sounds of nature and lake breezes as your soundtrack. It’s rustic in the best way, perfect for unplugging and recharging. Tip for future guests: You’ll need to be comfortable with stairs (almost ladder-like but with a handrail) to access the treehouse—but the view and serenity are 100% worth it. Bring a book and a flashlight💚

Weekend Trip to Fernwood on Alan F.’s Land

Very quite spot to enjoy the wilderness. It was great to take our dog on a walk on the nicely cut trails. Very warming and clean campsite.

Camp Canon

2 sites · Lodging, Tents11 acres · Copake Lake, NY

Welcome to Camp Canon. A small site situated at the base of a natural cliff line tucked away in wooded lands, surrounded by hundreds of undeveloped acres. 10 minutes from Lake Taghkanic State park and 20 minutes from Bash Bish, this camp is literally centrally located in Columbia County. 15 minutes drive north and you’ll be at the highest waterfall in the county; High Falls in Philmont. Privacy is key. Our rescue doggy Roxxie will undoubtedly stop over for a visit as our residence is about a hundred yards away nearby undetectable. You’ll hear some echos from traffic off the TSP but it sounds like wind or running water since there’s no commercial traffic allowed on that road.
