Relax at Tilden Hill Farm its a 155 acre farm raising Black Angus Cattle it has been in the Brewer family for seven generations. Founded in 1798 by Josiah Brewer, the farm has served as a grist mill, chicken farm, cheese factory.
We offer several types of site selection for your comfort. Choose from our private tent camping to relaxing RV sites. Our tent sites are quiet and scenic, just a quick walk down to the pond. Some of our sites you can park next to, but a few you will have to walk ~100 yards with your belongings. There are 2 bath houses on the campground with hot showers and toilets.
All sites include a fire pit and picnic table. We have 10 full hook up sites (water/electric/sewer) and 9 sites with water and electric. There is a dump station and fire wood available to all for a fee.
Once settled in, take a meandering walk through our 12 miles of walking trails or find your way down to our pond. Water activities are plentiful: fishing for bass, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, we accommodate it all!
We look forward to seeing you at Tilden Hill Farm where you can "Experience a Family Tradition"

This was such a great find! I have put it on my list of places to return to. I did not appreciate until arriving that Tilden Farm has won many awards (including best Hip Camp in NY) and is a destination for mountain bikers. The awards are well earned. The sites are thoughtfully located and supported with everything needed. The communication was perfect.

Pure serenity! Loved our stay. It was awesome to be able to walk on the trails through the woods with our pups. It would be really cool to rent the lodge in the woods! Something to think about. (Then let us know first!). Thank you for sharing your land with us.

We love the quietness of the campground. We had a lovely view of the pond, and the cows that would occasionally wonder near us. We loved kayaking, fishing, and the restrooms were very clean!

This was my third time staying on Ken’s land, just for a night while on my way to/from Maine.
While I’ve never stopped for too long and I’m usually getting in late, it is so nice knowing that there is a nice, safe space to stop to break up the long drive. The property is beautiful and I wish I had more time to explore!
Thanks Ken!
