Paula and her husband are kind, thoughtful, and helpful hosts! They were very quick to respond to our messages and were incredibly accommodating. I’d forgotten to pack cooking oil and Paula was generous enough to offer some of hers. This place has everything you need! If you enjoy birding this place has a variety of birds. Also, it was so cool to hear a great horned owl in the middle of the night.
We all had so much fun at their campsite - the perfect fall getaway. We’d love to visit again in the summer so we can enjoy the swimming holes and take advantage of the hiking trails!

We had a wonderful time at Paula and Bill’s campsite. It’s rustic yet well stocked and maintained, with tons of walking paths and a beautiful creek where we spent the afternoon skipping rocks. Bill brought us fresh water and firewood (along with some lovely conversation), and even when a nor’easter rolled through on our final night, we stayed warm and dry in our tent. Paula was so easy to get in touch with and they were flexible with our arrival time coming from NYC. The land they are on is truly stunning and they really care for it with such love.
Our six-year-old had the best time and now wishes we could camp there every weekend!
We also spent part of one of our days at Kesicke Farm, where he played in the corn maze, fed the animals, and just had an absolute blast. Mighty Donuts was also amazing and a great spot for kids, and Red Hook diner on our way out was just exactly what we needed.
Overall, our experience was fantastic, and we would love to come back again!

Stayed overnight in the remodeled horsetrailer in the field. Quiet. Large enough for 2 adults and 2 dogs. Hosts were nice and the horses were beautiful.

We had a great weekend at the campsite. Their attention to detail was incredible. You really had everything we needed to enjoy the weekend. The trails for hiking on the property very well maintained. I am definitely coming back next spring.

This campsite was so great. We loved the kitchen set up, and all of the supplies they have ready for you! The tent was cozy, and the stove in there helped a ton. We can’t wait to come back! Definitely would recommend trying it out!

This was a great site. Well-stocked with necessities, but rustic and isolated enough that you really enjoy your time with the surrounding nature and stream. Existing tents were very comfortable. And Paula and Bill were very attentive and made sure we had the water we needed. They were hands off allowing us to enjoy the stay, but attentive and quick when we needed something.

This campsite was a five star experience from start to finish! Paula and Bill were very accommodating for our last minute visit when a previous reservation was canceled due to a site error. The amenities and service are above and beyond—all the firewood you could ever need, an ice chest (with complimentary ice refills!), water and camp showers (restocked daily), a wood stove in the tent for chilly nights as well as a mattress and pillows, propane and charcoal grills for anyone who prefers that to a campfire, the list goes on and on! The proximity to the river is a huge luxury, just be aware the path down is steep. We wouldn’t change a thing about our time here and are definitely dreaming of coming back the next chance we get- possibly with friends since there’s a spare tent with air mattresses!

Paula gave us very detailed instructions from the point of booking. She was responsive whenever we reached out to her for things and her husband Bill gave us a great tour. We were able to capture some crawfish and swim in the stream that takes about 5-10 minutes of walking. The water was very clean. Everything we needed was pretty much there except for the food (obviously). You would need to bring plates, utensils, and cups. The dogs loved it there!

We just had our second visit to Paula’s campsite and had a great time. It’s very secluded and quiet. They’ve got a ton of camping gear set up already, so we don’t need to haul all of our equipment. It’s a very short walk down to the creek where we went swimming each day, and there are plenty of walking trails on site. Practically unlimited firewood and water too. We’ll definitely be back!
