Off-the-Grid Glamping Destination in New York for Weekend Getaway in Nature

Your campsite includes a 10'x12' (120 square feet) safari-style canvas tent on a raised wooden platform. Inside the tent you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed (see photos for the exact setup). The tent is big enough for the bed plus one or two extra sleeping bags on the floor. Aside from the canvas tent, campers can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided. You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.

Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet. This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. To use, line the bucket with a CleanWaste Sani-Bag supplied at the camp prior to use. Afterward, tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. CleanWaste Sani-Bags use a NASA-developed gelling/deodorizing agent that helps prevent spills and keeps everyone safe and clean. Every campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.

What you should bring:
-S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat
-A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling
-Bedding and pillows
-Lanterns and lighting
-Firewood for the campfire

Interaction with Guests:
Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While the host does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property.

If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper’s property, the host reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!

Getting Around:
Directions to Campsite from my private driveway:

As you drive up the hill, once past the last hedgerow (forsythia) on your left, there are 2 semi-dead juniper bushes on your left. If in a 4WD SUV or truck and the ground conditions permit, you may turn left to drive straight across the meadow to down below the pond dam where you will see the Campsite on your right, backed by the trees lining the creek. Please DO NOT drive on the pond spillway, or you may get stuck!

If you are not in a suitable vehicle, continue straight up the hill on the driveway, toward the huge white dome barn. After crossing the creek, there is a grassy area straight ahead (before you turn left toward the dome and house) where you should park (by the trash can supplied for your use). It is a 3-minute walk from here across the meadow to the Campsite. I can supply a sturdy wheelbarrow if needed.

If possible, it would be best to check in with me when you arrive before proceeding to your Campsite.

Other Things to Note:
Do not enter horse pastures, open gates, climb through fencing, leave food for horse or dog, or approach horse. No hunting or firearms are allowed on property.
Do look out for deer on the road as you drive up our hill.

House Rules:
• No parties or events
• Check-in is anytime after 12:00 PM
