Camping with animals!
We had an amazing stay! We came for a girls trip and found a great camping spot at Sundial Farm. It was a great site close to so much to see. NYC is about 40 minutes and close to great trails. Molly was very nice and accommodating when we got there later than expected. Our dog was welcome which was one reason we were looking for a camp site. It was easy to find and absolutely beautiful! Would definitely recommend coming to see the farm even if its for the markets on the land!

Just me and my dog
This is my second stay with my dog in the apple orchard. We so enjoyed our first stay last spring that I was eager to return. Molly is a wonderful host - communication was easy and her responses were immediate. She seemed determined to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. When we attempted to hike to Tea Town and couldn't find the way, Molly jumped in her car to help us (I definitely recommend visiting Tea Town, by the way). At the campsite in the orchard is a large firepit and more than enough wood for a long evening fire. The road noise did not bother me; it was more like white noise, but it is significant. I felt safe and the site felt private and my dog had off leash freedom to roam around the campsite area (I put her on a leash when we neared the farm). The campsite is really pretty in the spring. Apples on the ground on this October trip made it more difficult to find a good spot to pitch a tent. Prior to our arrival, Molly kindly offered an alternate site away from the apples if I thought my dog eating the apples would be a problem. Luckily she wasn't interested in them and I found an apple-free place for my tent and we enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful farm, friendliest host!
Woke up to beautiful views of Sundial Farm and loved exploring the property. A great place to experience the fall leaves, the festive pumpkin patch animals on the farm added to the fun! Molly was an amazing host who went above and beyond to help us out of a jam and make us feel welcome. Would 10/10 recommend booking a visit!

Beautiful farm! lots of space to set up, secluded from the public part of the farm where visitors come for the farm stand. Molly was so kind and helpful and showed us to the site even though we couldn’t be there until past dark. Would gladly stay again!

A group of 4 people and 1 dog had a great time at Molly’s campsite. We were initially worried about heavy rain when we got there, but Molly made sure that we were safe and had enough equipment to cover our tents. She even helped us to move our luggage using her cart due to the muddy road. Plus, it was nice to have a clean bathroom nearby and the farm store & local brewery’s pop-up store were a bonus. You can hear car sounds as the site is near the highway, but it did not bother us at all.
