Celestial meadow is a BIPOC and LGBTQ safe space. The 18 acres of forested land was formerly used for hunting, so has been left mostly untouched. It is a wonderful mix of elm, oak, maple, pine and hemlock as well as some grassy meadows and old stone walls. It is currently owned by two NYC transplants who express their creativity in nature, foraging for herbs, weaving and creating art out of grass and pine needles, and cooking in the wild. SEE MORE PICTURES ON OUR INSTAGRAM: @celestial_meadow_camp Welcome to Celestial Meadow,! This beautiful bell tent is set on a private meadow on 18 acres of nature.  Gaze at the stars around the fire pit or grill on the BBQ by the picnic table as you unwind amongst the alder and blueberry bushes, soft grass and scent of yarrow and other herbs. The handmade Caribbean hammock is the epitome of relaxation, and the heated outdoor shower is the highlight of many campers trip! Celestial Meadow is a two minute drive from Mountain Dale  @visitmountaindale,  charming, artsy village.  Forage & Gather is a great place to start to pick up local meats and veggies for the grill, and their breakfast, coffee and lunch is unmissable! Next door is Willow and Post with an incredible assortment of natural wines, and craft beers and spirits.  People come from far and wide to experience the charming outdoor creekside bar restaurant and brunch spot “High Voltage” that features live music and campfires on weekends. The Dale serves arguable some of the best sourdough pizza in the Catskills, and theres live music (and disco!) on weekends. Sandburg Trading is really handy for any forgotten essentials (and ask them if they have their famous Empanadas in stock!) For special vintage pieces in all natural fabrics check out Ambika’s boutique. Witchey Handmade also has amazing herbs and ethical skin care goods.  Along the village runs the Rail Trail, which is excellent for hiking or biking along the scenic reservoir. the hiking in Shawanagunks is spectacular, and the trails along the Neversink River provide beautiful swimming holes. Additional Amenities at the campsite: • 5-gallon potable water tank (can be refilled with the shower hose) • Outdoor propane heated shower  • Compost toilet (private and secluded for your comfort) • Space to pitch two extra tents. • Firewood available to buy by the bundle or unlimited, in extras • Electricity, and Electric Heater inside the tent and an outdoor accessible plug. The tent is furnished with a table, comfy chair, full-sized bed, and decorated with a cosy vintage feel. The full sized mattress sleeps two, and an additional single mattress that folds into a chair can sleep a third. There are lamps, a kettle, a fan and wifi for those who want to feel socially distant without feeling off the grid.  The meadow is fairly close to a small country road so you will hear the occasional car, but the sounds of the frogs, crickets and cicadas will be what mesmerizes you. Also, this being wooded land, deer are common, but generally keep their distance. However, with deer, there are ticks. There haven’t been many this summer, but check yourself daily and keep your tweezers handy. Black Bears are rarely spotted, but it’s always great outdoor etiquette to store all food in your car or the cooler provided,  and not to store any food in the tent. I love food, hiking, the arts and vintage shopping, and am always happy to answer any additional questions you have about things to do in the surrounding area.

Celestial Meadow Glamping
Wonderful weekend in the meadow 💛
Had the most amazing time glamping! Bianca was a wonderful host and she thought of literally everything at the tent. The outdoor shower is heated and feels like a lux space. The bathroom even has reading material and a lovely view of the forest. We had a great time building a fire and cooking fresh bacon and eggs (that we bought at the local Forage & Gather market in town). The tent has a super comfortable full size bed and it was so sleeping to the sound of the crickets. What a great weekend and I’d highly recommend this experience to anyone!

Relaxing and private camping
Very relaxing location. The outdoor shower (heated) and compost toilet were great, beautiful setting. Not sure I would pay this amount again for private camping, but it was nice not to be near anyone (I never even saw Bianca or anyone else), and have a private shower/toilet. Extra lighting could have been useful, especially for cooking, so don't forget to bring some lanterns with you. The firewood was damp but Bianca offered us some dry wood from her home- you may want to bring some of your own for backup, as well as fire starters (there were none there). The mattress is not a memory foam mattress, it is a spring mattress and somewhat old, but we slept well nonetheless. Also, FYI- there is a TON of poison ivy everywhere, so be careful where you walk! The town is also very small and has a couple cute places to go, but check because they close mostly on Sunday, and earlier than it says online. We ended up just making food on the fire for all our meals, it was awesome.

Out of this world!
Celestial Meadow is as fantastic as it looks and sounds. Bianca has thoughtfully appointed both the glamping tent, the fire pit/picnic table area, the compost toilet and the outdoor shower. A super comfortable way to enjoy the quiet of the outdoors.

Magical weekend getaway
10/10! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it truly was a Celestial experience. We ended up staying during Tropical Storm Henri, and our stay was just as, if not even more magical than expected. The sound of rain on the yurt was relaxing and we were safe and warm despite the storm. The yurt is waterproof and had space for me, my partner and our large doggo. The outdoor shower is incredible, one of our highlights. Also if you get a clear night star gazing is breathtaking. If you can definitely take trips to the local spots downtown The Dale & Forage and Gather! Also check out Miniawaska preserve (rain or shine) & Neversink Gorge.

The Celestial Meadow is the perfect romantic getaway with it's yurt beautifully decorated and tucked away in one corner of the meadow. At night the sounds of a small creek can be heard and the ambiance is nothing but magical with the hanging lights illuminating the site. The outdoor shower and toilet are touches that add to the whole experience. If the site was not enough, the little town (less than 5-minute drive) is like a drive-through time with its charming buildings and cute shops. Whether you are looking for a nice coffee and breakfast, a bottle shop with bottles tastefully handpicked, a souvenir, or a path taking you behind one of the buildings, by a small garden, into a rustic space surrounded by trees and nature where you can enjoy good food and drinks... you will find it all! Finally, this site is also located close to a number of beautiful hiking trails and parks, one of which (Minnewaska State Park) was particularly amazing with its numerous waterfalls and viewpoints! We absolutely loved our experience and would go back again and would recommend it to friends and family!
