Adirondack Adventure Base

Overlook Lean-To, Treehouse, primitive campsites, and so much more! This is glamping at its finest. Our property was originally used as a seasonal hunting/fishing camp in the 1920's. Sheila and Bob bought it in the early 80s and have turned it into an amazing compound built for their family. They blinked their eyes and their children are gone, so this beautiful 50 acre diverse property and its private trail system are meant to be shared.

Nestled in a mature, private pine forest, this well cared for property boasts abundant wildlife and a network of walking, skiing and mountain biking trails which take you past wetlands, cliffs and a variety of forest types. They have all kinds of lodging options from a beautiful vacation cabin they rent, to an Adk lean-to, to a Treehouse, and primitive campsites. You'll find a little bit for everyone at Adirondack Adventure Base.

ADK Mountain View


Fyi for future campers. ADK Mountain View will be undergoing changes to its current campsites. Per order of the Adirondack Park Agency. All sites will be moved as they have been deemed to close to jurisdictional wetlands. Please bear with us as we go through these changes. With that being said, any site you book at this time will not be in the same place at the time of your stay. Thank you.

This was a very old dairy farm owned by the Duntley Family. Old farming equipment dispersed throughout the property. An old foundation from a sugaring house. Beautiful old rock walls. Deer and wildlife galore.

Pitch your tent or bring your camper to our 150-acre working farm oasis. Beautiful views of the Adirondack Mountains. Easy drive to great hiking spots. Easy access in Essex for the ferry to Vermont. Lake Placid, high peaks 30 minutes. Or just relax at your campsite with a fire.

There is a water spigot to the left of the big brown metal building with easy access with the driveway in front of the building. 

Each site has its own outhouse, picnic table, two Adirondack chairs, fire ring with a cooking grate.

Snow mobile access during winter months.

Happy Camping!

Plenty of space to hang with friends, watch the sunset, cook your favorite camping dinner, and have a fire. Pets are welcome here, too!

Beautiful horses on the property with gorgeous views of the Adirondack Mountains.

Each campsite has an outhouse. Very clean, with fun photographs and paintings in each outhouse. Each outhouse has a fire extinguisher, wasp repellant, hand sanitizer, and toilet paper.

Beautiful campsite with plenty of activities and accommodations! 

Sarah & Lou (the hosts) will provide firewood upon request. There are firepits at every campsite.

At this campsite location, you can watch the sunset behind the Adirondack mountains while lounging on a lounge bed!

Each campsite has very clean and well-kept outhouse.

So many butterfly's! Saw mostly what appear to be Eastern tiger swallowtails, but if you keep an eye out you'll notice many others! 

Willow Hill Farm and Mountains

Willow Hill Farm is a family-run working horse farm.  We train , teach, board horses, and run a day camp. We had a resident camp for 40 years. We have mountains in our backyard and the Au Sable River with world class fishing bordering our meadow for a half mile. We are 45 minutes from Lake Placid and 30 minutes from Plattsburgh.  Montreal and Burlington, VT are a 1.5 hour drive.  Lake Champlain is 15 minutes away. Hiking, boating, and swimming are all close, and riding lessons are available on the farm.

Most hip camp sites are where resident campers stayed.  There are two sleeping cabins with many bunks. Each has two small rooms where a counselor slept and one large room.  There are screened windows with shutters on all sides and screen doors without locks on each end.  There are electrical outlets and over head lights in the cabins. We have plans to improve the cabins.  

Past the cabins is the Green with 4 loose stone firepits. Across from the cabins is the shower house with four hot showers, sink, and toilets. Showers and toilets have closed stalls. Currently, the water system is above ground and will not work in freezing temps. We are installing an outhouse for year round use. All water is from our excellent well.

On each side of the former(closed) dining are spots. There are electrical outlets on the outside of the dining hall.

People with campers may like to park in the riding arena near the barnyard. There are outlets, but no toilets. Good water is available from the barns. Lovely views of sky and mountains!

We also have a beautiful 50 acre field with an outlet, but no well. We will be putting an outhouse there. Excellent sky viewing here.   This is where we jump and train our horses.
