Weekend Trip to Wallkill River Camping

I had another great experience here. This is my second visit and it won't be the last....

Weekend Trip to Greener Pastures Camp

This place was so lovely! We arrived late, but the hosts stayed up to show us around and offered us firewood. Their property is very beautiful, and waking up to the sound of the birds was just perfect. Thank you guys, 100% will come back!

1 night at Greener Pastures Camp

It was a great place to stay the night! Jessica was very accessible for communication. On arrival, she showed us the different place we could park our camper van and we had access to free firewood too. It was quiet and very private!

Weekend Trip to Greener Pastures Camp

It was a very nice spot. Beautiful scenery. There is alot to do around the area. Plenty of hiking and fishing. It was very quiet. The response from Jessica was always within a timely manner and very pleasant to communicate with. I plan on returning to this location in the future. I would recommend to anyone.

Weekend Trip to Red Fox Meadow Campsite

This is my 4th time here. That should say it all. If I come back to a place more then twice it’s because it’s amazing and this time was no different. It was a wet weekend but still enjoyed a nice night camping on the property. Woke up to rain but was able to let things dry out and left a little later then check out but the host was super nice and understanding about it. If you need a spot to crash for the night and like to bike this spot is for you even if you don’t like to bike this is an amazing spot to pitch your tent for the night

Weekend Trip to Vernal Heights

Great spot for camping!! Lots of privacy and a beautiful spot in the woods. Hosts were so friendly, and our dogs had a great time!

Weekend Trip to Forest Treasure Island

Super lovely site, loads of friendly animals, and an extremely kind host!

1 night at The Mountain Top @Wright's Farm

Had a very nice, cold night with the field all to ourselves. Loved the farm stand and very friendly hosts. Thanks so much.

1 night at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Our stay at site #1 in our teardrop camper was seamless. The site is perfectly flat and the power source very convenient. Eric greeted us on arrival, and then we enjoyed a very nice walk on the trail behind the barn. Friendly horses, beautiful setting, everything well marked - these folks know hospitality!

1 night at The Mountain Top @Wright's Farm

We had an amazing stay! Campsites are spacious and it was very quiet when we went.

1 night at The Mountain Top @Wright's Farm

We had such a pleasant experience staying the night at Ridgeview #2! Truly, the farm and orchard are so beautiful, even in the tail end of the winter season. This site felt private even for a working area, and we were only visited by deer in the evening and throughout the night. Because of the rolling hills and hard-packed soil, we never had to worry about our tent flooding despite it raining the entire night. We managed to stay completely dry and warm and were able to pack in and out in a cinch since we could drive our car right onto our site. We drove a 4x4 truck and there is one particularly steep part of the path that was dodgy with the rain, but I'm almost certain we could have taken our tiny sedan all the way through due to the well-maintained farm trails. Just be sure to read and adhere to their listed rules as this is a working farm and you shouldn't have issues! The farm stand nearby is perfect for any last minute amenities if you forgot / ran out of anything. There's apple wood for a campfire (great for long, hot fires) and we made sure to arrive as soon as they opened in the morning for warm apple-cider donuts — incredible! Lastly, their brewery was not only a pleasant surprise, but a wildly fun experience with a live band playing on a Sunday night. You could definitely tell everyone there was a local but we didn't feel excluded and the beer and cider were great. Will be recommending to friends in the city who are looking to get away, but not TOO far away.

Weekend Trip to The 1772 Lefevre Homestead

This was my first Hip Camp stay. The land was as advertised (great open and private property, friendly cows, and a great view). The weather turn out for the worse on our weekend but as seasoned campers we made the best of it. My friend and I talked about coming back at some point with the family and make a bigger trip out of it.

Weekend Trip to Moon In The Pond Farm

Very nice property, each site is very private. Be ready to walk your things to the site. Dom has wheelbarrows to help move things which is great. Great experience, the firewood is a nice big bundle. We loved the animals on the farm too. No tables at the sites but there are some nice stumps you can easily use as a table. Thanks Dom

Weekend Trip to Wallkill River Camping

What a great site. Has to be my favorite camping site so far. Well kept and secluded without feeling to far from others. This morning as the sun came up, I've never heard so many varieties of birds singing before. I should've recorded it. I will be back in a few weeks.

Weekend Trip to Destination Farnch

We had an amazing time at Mike’s camp, even when it rained one night! There was plenty of firewood available, and the space was vast enough to accommodate a large group. We were upgraded to Phoenix Landing, which is more secluded and away from road noise—definitely a great spot for a peaceful getaway. We visited at the end of winter and could already tell that the area would be lush and beautiful in the summer. There’s a nice walking path on the property, perfect for a leisurely stroll. While there is a bathroom and shower on-site, we didn’t use them since we were only there for two nights and brought our own setup. The campsite was clean and well-maintained, and the land at Phoenix Landing was leveled, making our tent setup super even and comfortable for sleeping. There’s also a platform available, but we opted for a more primitive camping experience. We met Mike at the mushroom factory, and he was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and polite. Checking in and out was a breeze, and whenever we needed to communicate, he was always available and responsive. Overall, we had an awesome experience and would highly recommend this spot!

2 nights at Red Fox Meadow Campsite

Had such a great stay here! Super peaceful and tucked away in the woods, with tons of birds singing—it was exactly what I needed. Gwyneth was an awesome host, really friendly and accommodating. I got in late, but she still took the time to help me find the perfect spot to set up. Plus, I got to meet a newborn baby goat, which was such a cool surprise! Definitely recommend this place.

1 night at Greener Pastures Camp

Jessica was really sweet and accommodating. My vehicle is pretty tall, so she came out to meet me and show me another entrance where I wouldn’t risk having any branches hitting the top of my bus! Jessica and her partner are so kind! I would definitely recommend staying on their beautiful piece of property

Weekend Trip to The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Great site and a nice getaway from the city. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Beautiful site, easy to access, a little windy but it’s worth it for the wide open view of the sky

1 night at The Dominion House Farm and Trails

Really loved it, so we decided to stay there another day.

The 1772 Lefevre Homestead

1 site · RV, Tent40 acres · New Paltz, NY

This property was once a working apple orchard. Over regulation made it very difficult to manage so we let it lie foul for years. Then we let a fellow farmer use it to graze his cattle. Now our children has taking it over and are raising beef cattle on the property. Our campsite lies on the beautiful two and a half century old LeFevre family farmstead with rich history and stunning views of the Shawangunk Mountain ridge. The property is on a 40-acre old apple orchard that is super private and filled with dramatic views and spectacular sunsets. Wake up in your tent to the sounds of birds chirping, roasters crowing and cows just close enough but just far enough way. On occasion there may be a person driving by to tend to the cattle.
