My second glamping site "The Medieval Encampment", is available for booking starting April 1st of 2025. I will have more pictures soon. In April of 2024, my long awaited 1st Glamping site was available for booking. It's been very popular! Please read the description carefully of the "Gypsy Rose Vardo", to see if it's the right fit for you.
I also have 10 large camping sites available on our 33 acre property located in Northwest NJ. Sites 1 through 4 are on mowed, fairly level fields and are large enough for campers or RV's up to 30ft, or a couple of tents, and sites 5 and 6 are further back in the woods, available only for a few small tents, sites 7 through 10 are much further into the property and are only accessible with a high clearance AWD or 4WD SUV or you can park and hike your gear in. There are 3 compost toilet outhouses spread out through the property, so it's an easy walking distance from any site.
Although we are only 2 1/2 miles from a main highway, the last 2 miles are on a dirt road with no houses.
We are surrounded by protected land, so no neighbors and lots of wildlife, including the occasional bear, coyote or raccoon. Keep all food items secured. Because we are surrounded by protected land we are not sprayed for insects, so be safe and do tick checks often and bring the bug spray.
We are 45 minutes from NYC or the Delaware Water Gap and an hour away from the NJ shore. There are horse farms nearby that offer trail rides. We are also close to the Highland and Appalachian Hiking trails.
There are two reservoirs within a 20-minute drive for canoeing or kayaking.
There are walking trails through our property, including a ten-minute hike on a marked trail to a small waterfall in a ravine.

Summers get hot in the northeast. And muggy. We’re sweating just thinking about it. When it’s mid-July and Connecticut is threatening to burst into flames, Kettletown State Park is where people go to cool off.The refreshing waters of the Housatonic River and Lake Zoar are guaranteed to lower your body temperature and restore your energy levels. The rest of the park that isn’t water is heavily wooded, providing lots of welcome shade. Shoot, you could even go for a hike and not worry about overheating. It’s the perfect summer getaway from summer, if that makes sense. Don’t think about it too much, just go.

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead
Kathleen, I left you a detailed review in the book inside the cabin. I truly hope I get a chance to come with my family in the summer time. Unforgettable experience. The nature on this property is unparalleled near NYC.
If you’re looking at this ad and need a push to book, dont think twice!
I’m looking forward to getting a chance to throw some wisdom on the wood block next time as well!
Do NOT skip the waterfall hike. 5 stars!! 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Weekend Trip to Paradise Valley Homestead
We had such a wonderful stay at The Gypsy Rose! As new parents, we really needed a night away, and this spot was absolutely perfect. The wagon in the woods was cozy and unique, and the fall foliage made the whole place feel magical. We relaxed by the fire until bedtime, got an amazing night’s sleep, and woke up to a stunning mountain view. After morning coffee, we took a short hike to a nearby waterfall the perfect ending to a peaceful getaway. Thank you so much for your incredible hospitality! We can’t wait to come back.

My girlfriend and I absolutely loved our stay. The comfy bed was her favorite part. The cabin, outdoor screened dining area, and campfire area were all very comfortable and came with a ton of amenities. Hostess Kathleen was super welcoming, and consistently ensured that everything was in order around the site and was to our liking. Looking forward to returning next time we're in the area!

There is not enough space to write everything that is amazing about Kathy and this site. First of all the photos on hip camp don’t do this gem justice. This site is in a massive private property surrounded by wooded areas. The site is open but enclosed by trees so it’s a perfect balance of privacy. The outhouse is super clean and Cathy cleans them every day! As for the cabin it was perfect. It’s small but you will sleep like a baby. It has a tiny sink and small table to prepare food for grilling. There is a fire area and Cathy has bags of wood ready for use at $5 or $10 a bag. Although there is no shower why on earth would you not want to shower in a natural waterfall on the property. There is a large flat rock you can just ease into the natural pool. The waterfall is fed from what Kathy said is a shallow pond further up so the water is a perfect temperature. The pond on the property is also perfect if you have kids. The first day we got there kids played at the pond jumping off of a rope and small boats they have there until it was literally dark. For parents with curious kids this site will not disappoint. My girlfriend and I also found this site strategically located for getting in from Brooklyn. Two hours and you are there. And it was one hour away from other waterfalls we wanted to explore in the area. Of all the sites we have been to this has to be our favorite. We will definitely be coming back.
