All to yourself

98% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.

The camp site is as close to pure wilderness as it gets. No vehicles allowed. From an easily accessible parking space, it's a mildly uphill ten minute hike through magical meadows deep into a hidden mountain valley in the midst of 250,000 acres. Utter privacy. The only sounds being the wind, the birds, yourself, and Herdman Brook rushing along a few yards east of your site. The beauty of the site is that it's so pristine. This is not glamping. No cabin. No platform. Need tent, tarp, or hammock, and you will sleep under more stars than you can possibly imagine. Fire ring, cooking grate, chairs, commode, water bucket on site. We may not sell wood this year but will provide cart. 10 a.m. check in. 3 p.m. checkout. Campers ought to be aware that black bears live in these mountains., although you're not likely to see one unless it's running away from you. If you're really nervous bring bear spray, but you're not likely to need it. I literally chased one off our porch not a month ago. Also, the nation is experiencing a tick explosion. We've done what we can but do come prepared. I would appreciate your purchasing human waste bags from me when you arrive. I'll have them here for $3.00/bag. Feel free to bring your own. You should also bring FIRE STARTER to make your life easier. Wonderful hikes - one to a waterfall - trail head at end of Spruceton Rd. Hunter Brook, Devil's Notch, Fire Tower atop Hunter Mountain, Ridge of West Kill Mountain. Fishing holes abound. West Kill Brewery and Spruceton Inn Bed and Bar each half mile up the road. Civilized respites. 4 campers preferred. 6 possible. One more thing: DOGS. We have two: a 13 year old female whatever and a shepherd-husky mix, 4 years old, also female. They are quite friendly, although the shepherd looks intimidating, and both roam the property at will 2-3 times/day. We would prefer you not bring your dog, however, if you must, please be certain it is well behaved. 4.5 miles up County Rte 6 to 1833 Spruceton Rd., NY 12492 Old white farmhouse. On left. Coach lights. American flag. Welcome sign. Look for Baker Rd. Bridge directly opposite on right Stop at house for check in and guide to site. And Drive Carefully! PS: Pack it in. Pack it out. Please leave campsite as pristine as you found it.Complete and total privacy. Off the grid on the cusp of the Catskill wilderness. The ultimate in social distancing. As close to pure wilderness as it gets unless you're some place on the tundra. Hidden mountain valley. Wildlife. Trout fishing. Utter privacy. The only sounds being the wind, the birds, yourself, and the brook rushing only a few yards east of your site. Very basic. No cabin. No platform. Need tent or sleep under the stars. Fire ring, cooking grate, two chairs, water bucket, hospital style commode. No wifi. No cell service. You're off the grid. 10 a.m. check in. 4 p.m. checkout. This is not glamping but camping at its most basic - gorgeous scenery, complete privacy, utter peace, and 250,00 acres in which to wander. Room for two tents. Trout fishing on the West Kill. Easy access to two popular hikes: Diamond Notch Falls and Hunter Creek. We would appreciate your purchasing human waste [xxxxxxxx] have them for sale here at $3.00/bag. You should also bring fire starter to make your life easier. We recommend SureStart Fire Lighting Squares. We may be selling firewood as well - 6 logs/$10. Please tell us beforehand. Wonderful hikes - one to a waterfall - trail head at end of Spruceton Rd.

Review summary
Generated from real Hipcamper reviews
Stephen's campsite offers a truly secluded experience with stunning views of the Catskills and a peaceful setting, making it perfect for those seeking solitude and nature. Most campers appreciate the serene atmosphere and Stephen's welcoming nature, although the uphill walk to the site can be challenging. A utility cart is often mentioned as essential for transporting gear. The site's proximity to local attractions, like the West Kill Brewery, is a bonus for those looking to explore the area.

Remember to pack light for this wonderful and secluded scene. We packed heavy like a car camping and made 3 round trips to get our gears up there. It is uphill and quite a workout, but it was part of the trip and we love it. We truly appreciate Stephen generosity borrowed us his utility cart for transportation. Looking forward to coming back soon!
