Our land is 18 acres of a wooded hill, surrounded by hundreds more acres of trust-preserved land. A brook glitters from across the street, visible from most spots on the hill. The preserve land can be hiked, though there are not always paths. Macedonia and Kent Falls state parks are nearby by car, as well as an entrance to the Appalachian Trail just five minutes down the road. We are just six minutes away from the Tenmile River Metro North station and can pick you up with advance coordination. The town of Kent, Connecticut is a 7-minute drive and has lots of shops, dining, and an art gallery. The town of Amenia, New York is a 12-minute drive and has a drive-in movie theater, and some restaurants. Historic Downtown Wassaic is a 7-minute drive and is home to the Wassaic Project art gallery.This is a two level campsite that can accommodate up to four tents. There is a gorgeous stone fire pit with stone seating. The site is a five minute hike uphill from parking, up a lush, green, wooded path (please note the path is steep in places, but can accommodate a wagon or cart). The area is completely private and very quiet, with some occasional road sound. These woods are surrounded by hundreds of acres of preserved land, which can be hiked, but does not always have paths.

Camping on Jessica’s site was great. Highly recommended. The composting toilet was so nice to have — but be prepared to pack your refuse out of camp.

Ophidian - Four Tent

I had a great time camping with my dog. The hosts were very kind and the site was clean and well prepared with water and firewood. The stone fire pit and surrounding bench were beautiful. I also liked that I was deep enough into the woods that it felt private, but I was still close enough to the road and host’s home in case there were some kind of emergency.

Awesome camp site! Really pretty spot with a well-built fire pit and nice grounds to explore. Plenty of space for our group of four. Great communication from the host!

Ophidian - Four Tent

We really enjoyed staying on Sarah’s land! The campsite was very well prepared for our arrival with firewood and drinking water. We really enjoyed having a fire in the fire pit at the site. The toilet tent was an unexpected plus. Sarah was very helpful and even offered to help us carry up our gear. We’d definitely come back!
