Magical meadows at the CBL

My friends and I spent two nights at the Center for Bioregional Living and fully enjoyed our time out of the city and under the stars. The site is well-maintained and quite secluded in an immersive meadow landscape. It's also a close drive to many amazing hikes, swimming spots, and farmer's markets. We set up camp near the outdoor classroom, were able to prep and eat summer's bounty in the wooden structure, cooked our meals on the wood fire grill (there is also a 2-burner stove available), and spent most evenings around the fire pit. Having access to site amenities, like an outhouse, rainwater-fed sink, and outdoor shower, elevated our camping experience. Andrew and Adriana were responsive and supportive throughout our stay. One afternoon, we were welcomed by the Center's goats as we brought things to our camp! We were all enchanted by our time at the Center and look forward to coming back again!

Tranquility not from NYC

Andrews Camp Site: Nature's Retreat! Tranquil surroundings, friendly goats, and a refreshing rainwater shower. Ideal for a quick NYC getaway. 👍

Camp in a permaculture haven!

I had a fantastic time camping on Andrew and Adriana’s land. They explained all amenities thoroughly, and I found the campsite as well as compost toilet and shower to be great experiences. I was able to find a place to set up my camping hammock under shelter which was a plus! By far the best aspect of this trip was the educational aspect of Andrew’s permaculture property, and I can’t thank his family enough for inspiring me and motivating me to keep going with my own goals. You will be left alone and have tons of privacy with expansive land in a hillside meadow to meander around, feel safe as a solo camper, and experience beavers swimming right by the road. I also loved the chickens, ducks, goats, great kitchen gardens, wild medicinal herbs everywhere and fruit/nut trees. Don’t hesitate to book some time here! You won’t regret it.

Night sky was exquisite from the campsite on the to of the hill. Big mirror in the privy for checking for ticks was a thoughtful touch for solo travelers.
