Our property was purchased and farmed by my ancestors in 1803. They cleared the meadow area of trees and rocks and established the stone wall, enclosing the area. A hemlock and pine forest at the edge of the meadow leads to our 50-acre wetland preserve which provides habitat for many bird and wildlife species. Native people also camped,hunted and trapped here in the early 1800s. Learn more about this land: Relax in a secluded meadow, wander through old Hemlock forest trails and watch many varieties of birds and other wildlife on 60 acres of wetland preserve. A very private spot with space for gatherings, tipis, tents, vans -- all are welcome. Absolutely beautiful night skies due to a lack of light pollution. Only 5 minutes away from the village, where you can pick up groceries and whatever else you need. Kids 12 and under can stay for free.

Great couple of days!

Great spot in a under visited area of the Adirondacks. The field is remote and beautiful. Dale is a great guy and very accommodating providing firewood, water and a restroom. Thanks for a memorable stay! For those interested the road biking in the area is amazing.

Beautiful retreat

We loved staying on Dale's land! We stayed for 3 nights in our tent with our dog. The campsite was well kept with a comfortable tent spot, fire pit, available firewood, and an outhouse. Dale was very welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. The town is also a quick ten minute drive for any supplies. We would definitely camp here again.

What a beautiful site to watch the eclipse. And Dale was so kind when I first arrived - he gave me a walkthrough of the area and made sure I had everything I needed. Thank you so much for sharing your land Dale!

Camped here for the eclipse

This was our first time camping at a private property, or using hipcamp, and would definitely camp at Dale's property again. We camped here for the total eclipse, and Dale was very accommodating. He greeted us when we arrive, showed us out to the campsite and gave us the lay of the land. Super congenial. Our campsite had a table and firepit ready to go for our needs, and the firewood was plentiful. Unlike crowded campgrounds, Dale's place is secluded enough that we could hear an owl at night, and the calls of coyotes in the distance. No signs of pests on though! Thanks for having us, Dale!

a nice field to stay the night.

This is a nice field with a good view of the sky. It was really quiet, and Dale was very nice. It's close to Clarkson and SUNY Potsdam, and also the Stone Valley trail.
