Thank you. :o) Land was purchased in 2008. We have had the pleasure of raising our 2 beautiful daughters playing on the Neversink River. I decided to build a campsite after being approached by a few guys from Brooklyn, looking for a place to camp while stopping at our family yard sale. They loved the location and came back a second time. It became obvious we had something special at this location. The site is continuing to grow and we are working on new accommodations to keep things interesting! We hope you consider coming to visit us! When we are available, we greet each guest to help get their gear down to the river with our John Deere Gator UTV. We offer the same help during checkout getting the guests gear back to their vehicle. We live onsite but far enough away from the campsite allowing the privacy for our guests.Whether you prefer traditional camping or glamping, or maybe somewhere in between; it’s up to you at Neversink Sanctuary. Nestled on the peaceful banks of the Neversink River in the beautiful Catskill Mountains, our private campsite is the perfect place to relax and recharge. “The Shed at Neversink Sanctuary” is loaded with amenities such as a covered front porch, heat, electric, wi-fi, and a full outdoor kitchen.  Feel free to keep it simple and cook on the open campfire or use our propane grill and smoker Big Green Egg Komodo BBQ (yes, you read that right) to show off your culinary skills. Come enjoy kayaking, tubing, fishing, bird watching, or just exploring the tranquil waters of the Neversink River at this private location. It is not uncommon to experience bald eagle here at the sanctuary as there is a nest in view and one a bit further upstream.  Let the refreshing river waters wash your stresses downstream. Our site has plenty of room for additional tents and playing yard games such as can jam and cornhole which are provided for your enjoyment.  We have extra gear for convenience, zero gravity chairs, 5 ft table, and more!

We love neversink!!!
We went to Des’s land 4 times so far. This time was for my husband’s birthday. We had a blast as usual. The cabin was so warm in the end of the October which is awesome.

Dreamy riverside
This is a perfect location for a little getaway. It does not feel like you are in somebody's backyard at all. Des has thought of everything you could possibly need and supplied it. Would absolutely recommend.

Spacious Site w/ the Best Amenities
Our group loved camping on Neversink Sanctuary for my boyfriends 30th! It was such a serene campground especially having river access, the outdoor kitchen and so many amenities on site (we recommend bringing lump charcoal for the big green egg). We made pizzas, smoked a chuck roast, did some fishing, saw some bald eagles, cold plunged, had campfires and made so many more amazing memories here. It has great access to Livingston Manor one of our favorite towns upstate. It’s close to Upward Brewery and we had a great time there hiking Beer Mountain. Des is very kind and does a great job to make your experience as great as it can be. The cabin was so cozy and we also camped out. Amazing property! We’ll definitely be back!

Great host, great property
Des was great to us. I host a get together once a year and one of the hardest things is getting a property host who cares and is reliable. He met us when we arrived and took all of our stuff down to the camp. All that was advertised was present, plus extras. The cabin sleeps 4 on the mattresses and you can totally fit another 2 or 3 on the floor. We popped up tents all over the yard as well. Other fun things included the bald eagle nest across the river, kayaking (he has 2 that are included), campfires (he sells wood), kan jam and frisbee.
