This site was perfect for us! We came with our dogs and they loved running around on the trails and in the fields - the site had a picnic table and cooking area, and we grabbed firewood, eggs, maple syrup and a few other goodies from the farm stand on the way in. David and his family were amazing hosts, checking in periodically to see if we needed anything to make our stay even more comfortable. We took advantage of the permanent tent at the site and our own tents, both were super fun - we will most definitely be back again, thank you David and family!

We loved staying at this property! We enjoyed playing cards by the beautiful creek and taking walks on the property. It was a short drive from longer hikes, such as Fahnestock State Park, which we took advantage of. Bill and Stephen were really helpful in making sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely come back again!

This spot stands out as my favorite of all the Hipcamp sites I’ve stayed at upstate. The location is essentially perfect... peaceful, beautiful, and easy to get to. I come here every year with my son, it’s become a tradition for us. Stephen, the host, is always a pleasure, communicative, kind, and genuinely cares about the experience. The inside of the tent is well maintained, and the stream that runs right in front adds such a magical touch. I highly recommend this place, just don’t book it in early October, because that’s when We like to come!

Weekend Trip to Hunterbrook Mountain
We loved Hunterbrook Mountain! Stephen was a gracious and friendly host, providing clear and helpful information before and during our stay. The site is private, peaceful, beautiful, and hard to leave. Stephen provides cookware, a hammock, cleaning supplies, cards, a football, and more. Multiple trails on the property. Fresh spring water available anytime. Can’t wait to go back!

2 nights at Hunterbrook Mountain
We loved the tent and the space. The hosts were very responsive and informative. It's clear they want campers to have a great experience. The terrain to the site is uphill & the hike up there is not for faint of heart or the overly wobbly. It's not a long hike, but it is rocky and at a constant incline. But what you'll find at the end of it is really lovely. Would be wonderful for a group, with extra tents. The amenities are exceptional-- bed!!! battery, camp chairs, firewood, potable water, cooking gear, shower, compost toilet (I had no idea they could be this good), fairy lights! There are so many hikes, a few lakes, and excellent food options within 10-15 mins drive; with 2 hikes on the property.
One warning for those who care: Although you are surrounded by nature, you can hear large/noisy vehicles through the night (trucks switching gears, motorcycles). This wasn't an issue for us and we slept like logs, but it might be for sensitive sleepers or folks who want all their senses to bathe in nature.

David’s secluded camp site was absolutely the best site I have stayed at ALL summer. Quiet, convenient, and just what I needed. The dogs were living their best life for the duration of our stay. What surprised me the most about the site was the lack of mosquitoes, flying knats and ants??!! Lots of big spiders, eating healthy! It was great to not smell of deet or citronella☺️
I highly recommend spending a few nights here, best decision I made😀thanx David!!!

Group trip
Hunterbrook was fantastic. It was peaceful, Bill was super friendly and helpful, and the site was clean and really well stocked. The location is great for day hikes in Fahnestock State Park (10 mims) or the Hudson Highlands (20 mins). We had a terrific time hiking in the daytime and sitting by the fire and brook at night.

3 nights at Moon In The Pond Farm
Accommodations and site were as described. Dominic is very friendly and helpful. It's a few miles off any main roads so it's very quiet and dark at night so the star gazing is excellent and so is the sleeping.
I would note that there is no shower available for use but he will let you use the hose! :)

Weekend Trip to Maple Corner Farm
The site here at Maple Corner Farm is truly a delight for people who like CAMPING. They were so accommodating when we arrived, helping us get well water onsite and providing a solar-heated shower bag for our use (and a plastic camp toilet).
Although wood was available for purchase at the farm store, they gave us the OK to go looking for wood in the forest and burn anything we find on the ground - so we did, and had no issue finding logs, kindling, etc. to keep the fire going all weekend.
The trails are a little overgrown, but anyone with long pants and bug spray will have no issue walking through the areas with taller grass/a few patches of low-to-the-ground ferns along the trails. The nearby campsite with a natural swimming hole was unoccupied so we got to dabble there a bit, and the meadow was huge and open - we set up a blanket and telescope at night for stargazing, and brought binoculars to birdwatch over the meadow during the day.
We saw hawks, baby turkeys, ospreys, owls, and crows - along with a few frogs, monarch butterflies and some brave chipmunks.
Altogether, it felt very safe yet remote, we were free to roam the farm, and had a super authentic camping experience. The mattresses and bunk bed in our canvas tent were a huge plus, as well as the shower attached to the outhouse. There is a military base and airport nearby so we saw some cool planes, fighter jets, and heard bombs at one point. We’ll be back and likely will rent both sites that border the meadow!

We stayed at Maple Corner Farm this past weekend and could not have been happier with our experience. We chose the Meadow site and wanted privacy and space for our 110 pound dog who can be a little iffy with strangers and this site was perfect. The canvas tent with queen bunk beds was perfect for our family of 3 and the covered awning was great for shade. We had brought a screen tent knowing how buggy it might be because we also live in the woods. There was a delightful swimming hole just a couple minutes walk down the road that was amazing to cool off in. David was a great host and he is running a 5 star spot for sure!

Weekend Trip to Maple Corner Farm
We loved camping at Maple Corner Farm! Highlights:
- It was totally quiet and remote, beautiful, peaceful, just us and the fields and the woods (yet easy to get to)
- We felt so very welcomed by David and his family. Gracious, patient, hospitable, kind, went the extra mile, very available and responsive. Thank you, David!
- The tent site was delightful. Loved the roof over the picnic table and the kitchen area. The adirondack chairs were super comfortable, buying wood was simple, the tent and platform were clean and exactly as described, entire area was clean and well cared for.
Thank you thank you thank you!

Last minute decided to book a camping trip at Dominic’s Idaho site and it was the most incredible experience. This was my first time camping on a farm and seeing all the animals on site was truly magical! Dominic was a great host and walked us to our campsite and gave us a quick history of the land. Such a perfect spot to unwind, star gaze, and enjoy nature. Waking up to the cows grazing in the pasture was something really special. Will definitely be back!! !!

We loved being at Moon in the Pond!!! Dominic keeps an idyllic, lush farm and the Idaho site was absolutely beautiful and private. We woke up each morning to grazing highland cows in the pasture nearby - the site is definitely in and among the working farm and its animals. Photos don’t really do it justice. Guests who are bug bite prone like me should make sure to bring repellent for the dusk and early evening hours. Would absolutely stay again. Thank you Dominic!

1 night at Water Forest Retreat
Five stars aren’t enough to describe our stay at the picturesque Octagon. This is a perfect getaway for a solo traveler or couple. Nancy thought of all the details, and we felt so welcomed. We cooked dinner over the bonfire, and in addition to the tiny house, enjoyed the outdoor shower and a hike through this beautiful property. I hope to return one day!
