West Branch Riverside
This property was a wonderful surprise! Just as the photo looks but add the sound of bubbling brook beside your tent. I came with two girlfriends and my square drop camper. With no cell service we were enjoying each others stories and connecting rather than being on our phones. The property has a picnic table, fire pit and 2 Adirondack chairs. We loved our stay and would stay again. Vilhelm was very kind and his daughter is a sweetie, they drove us to the site and walked us through anything we might need or to answer any questions we might have had. You will love this place, if you’re looking to seriously unplug from your phone and you should it won’t disappoint. Thank you Vilhelm!

Great spot, very quiet, beautiful piece of land! Vilem was an incredible host. Super helpful, very cool, very friendly. Easy to contact and a breeze to talk to. Would highly recommend his site!

This is a beautiful site at the edge of a stream in a gorgeous valley at the edge of the Catskill Scenic Trail. The host Vilem, and his family, are friendly and accommodating. But let you drive how much interaction you have with them. I will definitely return and encourage others to camp at this site.

Vilem has a wonderful property and we had a great evening. Vilem was very responsive and made us feel quite welcome. Yhe field is in the middle of a valley, next to a stream. You are within earshot of the road, but barely and we really only heard cars early in the evening. Thanks so much!

Quiet with a babbling stream and walking path just steps away from the campsite.

First and foremost, Vilem was an amazing host! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at West Branch Riverside. The property is gorgeous and expansive. Taking it in literally cleared our lungs and head! It was a peaceful place to camp, with the rolling river next to us and the mountains all around. Despite the relatively colder temperature the weekend we went, as well as rain in the forecast, we found ourselves warm and more than content. Yes, we bundled up, but the place itself kept us active-it had so much to offer. We walked along the river to fish (caught a wild trout!), walked the Catskill Scenic Trail and fished some more. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get away from it all.

West Branch Riverside
This campsite is breathtaking! We could not have been happier with the setup here. Entirely secluded and right on the river. Our pickup truck had no problem getting to the campsite at all. The site is flat and has plenty of room with an unreal sunset view! Vilem is a kind excellent host. We hope to come back for another stay in the near future. Thanks!

Vilem was a warm host, greeted us upon arrival, showed us to the site, and had made sure we were set for our stay. Camp is tucked between the water and a vast crop field--really gorgeous--with a fire pit and grill top (you can use for two separate fires or place the one inside the other). The sounds of the river are really peaceful. You will also hear to moos and crow of nearby animals (not intrusive, but background noise). There was more than enough room to set up our two person tent and park our car. The site is located near a long walking path with copious amounts of water to fish in, if you visit during the season. It had rained during our stay, but we brought our 4WD car and placed a tarp under our tent during setup and had no issue with mud/getting out of the field and didn't sleeping in water. The ground is pretty level. Because the area is flat, and there were no crops growing, we made sure to stake our tent and moved our car beside it during an especially windy night. I popped in my earplugs and had no issue sleeping though.
In the surrounding area (accessible by car), are several sprawling farms with cute stands to purchase baked goods, dairy products and meat. It's a short ride to the center of town (Delhi) where we were able to get gas, firewood, and cell service.
Overall, we had a really lovely stay at an incredibly peaceful site. Vilem was a great host and would check in every once in a while. My partner (and pup!) enjoyed their birthday weekend camping here and we would love to come back.

West Branch Orchard
Vilem's property was a gorgeous and wonderful experience nestled in the mountains. He and his family were very helpful and sweet, and told us where to get the best local honey, cheese and meat. We stayed at a new spot they made recently right by the river, and had a great time eating s'mores and looking at the stars. 10/10 would stay here again, Vilem is a wonderful host.

Camping here was awesome. The location is great -- close enough by car to food sources, but isolated from people and villages as well if you come fully prepared. The site's dual fire pits and close proximity to the river (less than 100 yards) were useful for warmth, refreshment, and essential parts' bathing. The river is also beautiful and just a stone's throw away. The Catskills hiking trail being just off the site was an amazing bonus -- super convenient and even a bit magical.
As if the location weren't stellar enough, Vilem and Rebecca were cool, kind, and extremely accessible hosts. Their property is serene, beautiful, and lends itself well to camping. We had a really great time and can't wait to come back!

Vilem was a gracious host and I felt like I was speaking with a long-term friend.
Location is wonderful: unmatched solar display, babbling creek, singing coyotes, and gorgeous views. It is a great respite from the busy metropolitan world.
Hope to return again!

West Branch Orchard
Private spot in an orchard close to a tributary of the Delaware River, and right off the 26 mile Catskill Scenic Trail. The host family is wonderful and went out of their way to help us out. There are plans for a site in a hayfield next summer which sound great.

This was our first time using Hipcamp, and we are hooked! Vilem's property was so beautiful and secluded with so much to do in the area! We never ended up leaving the property because there was so much to do right outside of our tent. The Catskill Scenic trail is right on the property and was beautiful to walk. There is also a creek with great swimming spots for us and our dog-- we all had a blast! We are already planning on making a trip back!
Also, Thanks for the corn Vilem-- it was delicious!

Vilem and Rebecca were great hosts! They checked in with us ahead of time to confirm directions, and showed us around the site when we arrived. It was exactly as described - we had a little private access to the creek, fire pit and a small grill pit for charcoal, and plenty of space to set up the tent and park. Vilem left extra firewood at the site, which was a really nice surprise.
The site was right next to the Catskills trail, which was great for running/biking, though meant cyclists passed the site during the day and a few 4x4s at night. There were enough trees between the site and the trail for privacy. Tons of activities/restaurants/hikes nearby, and lots of beautiful creek to explore! We saw trout, herons, and a huge snapping turtle in the creek (~15 inches long!). Lovely weekend getaway!

Vilem and Rebecca were amazing hosts! Their beautiful property has just 2 campsites, both completely lovely and remote, with tons of space and privacy. The river is adjacent to their property and the entire landscape is gorgeous. Vilem helped us with everything we needed, and they are gracious, lovely people. We highly recommend this spot, and only wish we could have stayed longer.

What a magical spot!
We had crackling fires at night and woke to mist over the small orchard. .Vilem and family really went above and beyond, and are genuinely lovely people. We could not have felt more welcome.
The location is surrounded by green farmland and backed by a trail and the river. Running, biking, swimming, hiking, etc... are all right there. It is only a few miles from Delhi, which has shops, restaurants, and a gas station.
We would return in a heartbeat.

Vilem and Rebecca’s campsite was very lovely. We had a wonderful get-away weekend exploring the area. The campsite was set up with firewood and a grill and plenty of space to pitch a tent. They kindly lent us a set of bikes and because of the sites proximity to the Catskill Scenic trail we were able to ride a few miles down it. (We would highly recommend an early morning ride before 8am to catch the fog coating the river and corn fields it was fantastic).
We looking for our next excuse to come back. Highly recommend!
& Thanks Rebecca for the burgundy beans!

We had a wonderful stay at Vilem’s. He and his family were warm hosts who made us feel very welcome. The site was well-kept and right on the Catskill scenic trail. We borrowed bikes from Vilem and rode on it for miles, and the scenery was stunning. The site is also right on the west branch of the Delaware, and the sound of the river flowing past made for peaceful days and evenings. You can easily jump in and take a swim if you’re so inclined on a hot day. Highly recommended!

My boyfriend, our dog and I had an incredible July 4th weekend staying at Vilem’s place! Our tent site was just footsteps off the Catskills Scenic Trail while still being so private! The trail was so fun to walk on especially for our dog because of the multiple swimming opportunities for her. The site had a few options of where to put the tent, and they have a really nice fire pit set up. The town of Delhi was about a 20 minute drive and had some nice eating options. Vilem and his family were so welcoming and friendly. We will definitely stay there again!
