Site 8 - Willow Hill Farm and Mountains Camp
Adirondack Area Nice Basic Camping
I booked Site 8 but I honestly don't know which site we stayed at because we had the place to ourselves. It's a nice basic campsite, secluded from road noise, on a working horse farm. We were driving from the Hudson Valley to Montreal & this was a perfect place to stay overnight. My dog & I got our feet wet in the beautiful Ausable River on the way out in the morning. Tara was communicative & friendly but we were left alone (which I appreciate). We're self-contained so I can't rate the bathroom facilities but the firepits were nice! My dog was happily off-leash the whole time, which might not be possible if there are multiple sites in use. Will stay again on future trips.

Site 1 - Willow Hill Farm Cabins
We could not sleep here
My daughter and I have spent many years tent camping and attending/working in summer camps staying in bunks. We were expecting a rustic but comfortable and clean cabin to spend the night in. Unfortunately we were horrified upon opening the cabin doors to discover a moldy piles of mattresses, one of which had wads of hair on top. There was a filthy and mildewed love seat with cushions half off, old books with layers of dust, and one of the beds had a moldy blanket on it. The cabin reeked of urine and mildew. Luckily the bathroom had running water, though one of the toilets was black inside as if it hadn’t been cleaned in years. One sink had old toothpaste, a dirty sponge, and filth in it. The grass around the cabins was overgrown and covered in ant piles. Ultimately, the cabins were uninhabitable and unhealthy and we had no choice but to (try to) sleep in the car. I don’t know how anyone could expect someone to sleep in that and breathe in mold spores and dust. We understand “roughing it”, but these conditions were just unacceptable. We also weren’t given explicit directions on where to park and which cabin was ours until the next day. I hate to have to write this review but if I had known what the conditions of these cabins were, I never in a million years would have stayed here. The entire place felt abandoned and creepy. It was not a good time and we hardly slept. I would love to be refunded for this night as we were unable to use the facilities and the cabins.

Site 1 - Willow Hill Farm Cabins
Perfect for our stay
We loved the campsite. Very close to Ausable Chasm.
Site 11 - Willow Hill Farm and Mountains Camp
Nice peaceful locale for the price!
I have to say I was expecting a little more “creature comforts” like hot water and a mowed field since I have a Prius and if I drove into the field next to my site it would have probably gotten lost or partially buried in the tall brush/grass. I’m lucky I am an Eagle Scout because I really had to rough it and if I had been staying more than just an overnight I would have been really aggravated about the hot water “running out” I mean when the Host (Tara) said to me that the hot water had been used all up and we are literally like three weeks into camping season!!! And this was the day before Memorial Day! I’d hate to be a family with little ones and be told oh you and your family can’t have hot showers today because it’s been used up! Wow I’m sorry but as someone who runs a private campground these are things that need to be addressed before people arrive! If you’re not prepared you at least need to give your guests a heads up! Cause if I knew that I would probably have stayed somewhere else I was kinda looking forward to a nice hot shower on the morning of my departure. St least there were flushing toilets but maybe leaving the light to the bathrooms on at night or in the evening when guests are expected might be a good idea next time cause it’s not only scary but also very dangerous I wasn’t even able to get over to the bathrooms until the next day cause I really did not want to take any chances in the dark; even with a flashlight! So just be prepared is all next time thx!
