This is a great place for any camping stay, short or long. It stands apart from other campsites for…read moreits ample space (and therefore privacy at each site), views of rolling hills, and a wonderful host that makes your stay personal and comfortable. For my husband and me, it was like a lovely cross between a bnb/camping experience, because we were lucky to spend a morning chatting with Wally over his delicious breakfast sandwiches and coffee--but if you want a secluded, private experience, that is easily yours as well at this lovely farm campsite.
Instead of feeling like you're all on top of each other with tent site after tent site like at many places, you have an entire verdant hill all to yourself, with nice flat places for tent set-up, a firepit, and chairs. It is quiet, peaceful, and beautiful, and we slept well on our overnight stay. We arrived really late but that was no problem.
The site is charged per person, so it may be more expensive than other places that charge per site, but if you want to exchange a bit of extra money for a much more pleasant space, this may be worthwhile for you. Please note no potable water faucet. We didn't make use of the shower option, but he said one can be installed at your request.
The farm is about 15 minutes from New Paltz, so really convenient for anyone headed that way, or toward the Mohonk Preserve for the multitude of outdoor activities there.
Wally is a great host with great stories, life experiences, and philosophies, and we look forward to staying there again sometime. Thanks Wally!
