There are four domes available, each with their distinct personalities. We stayed in the Modern Luxury dome, which was plenty space for the two of us, but there are others that have nearly double the space. Our dome was outfitted with a ton of creature comforts, like a full kitchenette, a full bathroom, a wall-mounted TV (with complimentary Youtube Premium!), and an extremely comfortable mattress on an adjustable head- and foot-power base, so that we were able to watch the snowfall outside our igloo from the perfect position. Checking in was a cinch. Each dome is programmed with a numeric lock, and the passcode corresponds with the last digits of the lodger's phone number, so gaining access is super easy. Inside, the space is definitely one-of-a-kind. It's like a giant igloo, with the bathroom making up the center middle and the rest of the studio space orients around the perimeter. The bed looks onto the outside, which presents a unique and serene windowscape. We hit some small snafus during our visit. We arrived just ahead of a big snowstorm, and it was pretty cold inside even with the heat left on at a supposed 75 degrees. After emailing and calling the property manager, someone showed up with a space heater that made a huge difference. After the storm subsided, someone also came by and wordlessly shoveled all the driveways and walkways, which we certainly appreciated. The immediate neighborhood is pretty quiet and doesn't have a whole lot going on, but we were able to find a few things that allowed us to carve out our own version of the fun stay. Within driving distance, there's a supermarket, Resorts World casino, Kartrite indoor water park, and two small tubing/skiing options.

I cannot say enough about how awesome our experience was! We stayed in the "Rosé all day" dome and…read moreabsolutely loved the beautiful decor and boutique feel of it. Everything was super clean and offered amazing amenities such as shampoo, hand soap, towels, and a full use kitchen! I was also so impressed by the dog friendly amenities, such as a water bowl and adorable dog bed included. Since it was snowing out, we did not have a chance to use the adorable chair swings, bbq grill, or firepit on premises, but each dome also has their own private outdoor area of those included. The location was nice, in the sense of you are definitely out in nature, but have a Walmart and other local spots within a few minutes drive, as well as the Resort's World casino! Overall, the perfect spot for a cute getaway or bachelorette for those that love nature, but aren't quite the camping type like myself.

Empire Campgrounds is tucked away in the wooded folds of mount hope, tall trees line the fourty acres of rural, semi-applachian terrain just a few miles from the resting grounds of the original site of Woodstock '69. There are some cool bars nearby and plenty of forest and waterfront to explore. We pitched our tents beside an old stone wall and a patch of ferns backing onto the forest- only a minute walk from the communal cabin which featured; a washroom with a shower, a kitchen and a shady front porch. They've got a friendly dog named Floki and a few chickens roaming the space between the cabin and the house. E.C. was the perfect site for our experience at Bethel Woods. We felt safe and relaxed. It was the closest thing we could get to seeing the Grateful Dead back in the day. *Note, The weather can change on a dime to pack prepared and if you happen to smoke, bring extras for sharing haha. Thanks for having us Valian & Sophia. Evan

It's all in a wooded area, has a nice pool, rather clean bathrooms and showers. The playground was barely holding together, but the little one didn't notice! It was quiet and managers were nice (maybe a bit too nice as they were driving across the playground 50 times/day and constantly greeting everyone). They let us checkin at 10am and leave past checkout. Although it wasn't anything special, everything went remarkably smoothly and we enjoyed the experience.

I hate camping so when my wife told me that we are going camping, I was not a happy camper (pun…read moreintended) She then said it's not technically not camping, it's glamping (glamorous camping)- now there's a new term I never heard of before... but since she already paid for it, I'll go with the flow and not make her disconTENT. Bill Hills Farm Tent and Breakfast is located in a small town in Narrowsburg NY, it's somewhat close to the Delaware Water Gap and it's approximately a two and a half hour drive from Queens NY. TIP: It's on the way to Woodbury outlet, so you can do some shopping after glamping We got there just before it was dark, in order to gain access there, you'll need to first meet up with the owner Jane (she lived just down the block) and she'll direct you to the glamping tent. After a short 5 minutes drive into the wood, we got to the tent and since it was night time, we couldn't really see the outside of the tent, but inside- O-M-G- GLAMOROUS! Everything was wood so you still feel like you are in the wild, Queen size bed, lights and electricity, small refrigerator, table, fully functional toilet, shower with jets and a full size marble sink. It just couldn't get more inTents than this! After the tour around the tent, Jane was super sweet and asked us if we had any dietary restrictions and also what time we would like to have breakfast. We said no and then she said good night and left us to enjoy the song of the nature = cricket singing The next day breakfast was served at around 8am (thru our request), We didn't get our breakfast served to us in bed but it was atop of a TREEHOUSE!!! OMG moment #2, this is definitely a boy's (I mean MEN) dream come true!!!! Moving on to breakfast we had muffins, fruit salad, an APPLE SAUSAGE RING and scramble eggs.. I usually don't eat sausages but that apple sausage ring was delicious!!! So good that I had two servings! and I'm very critical about my scramble eggs but Jane was on point with the eggs, it was perfect- nice and fluffy, not runny and not rock solid. While we were eating, Jane suggested a few places we should check out and she even gave us detailed directions to each of these places.. she's just too nice! Unfortunately it rained both days we were there but still we had a great time hanging out in the tent and tree house. The town center itself is not big but it's cute in it's own unique way. Overall the whole stay was quite an experience, Jane was an excellent host and is super accommodating, the tent was amazing with everything well maintained, the food Jane cooked was legit! that Apple sausage ring so good!! I'm not a fan of camping but I will not mind coming back to Blue Hill Farm Tent for another glamping experience!

We were a little disappointment through. When we made the reservations back in March we had a choice of several sites. I asked for her recommendations for the best river site. She recommended R6 and it looked great on the map. When we arrived he told us R6 was not a great site and needed work. I'll say so......look at my photos of site R6. So we ended up across the street and down a few sites. See map in photos I attached. It was a mud pit even on the dry days. No grass or privacy. I asked if any of the concrete pad sites were available as I would pay to upgrade but he told us they were sold out. (However the one across from us was empty our entire stay.) The staff was very helpful and friendly. Not the fault of the campground but the family in the cabin by the river had a small dog that started barking at 6:30am through the day. It was annoying seeing them sit there next to the dog and let it bark.

Worst campground in the northeast. The owner moved all of our camping gear to another site while we…read morewere away at dinner. We came back at 9:30 pm to find a huge group of people are our campsite and all of our stuff was gone. Of course we were mad so we called the owner "Barry" and instead of helping us, he yelled at us and told us to take the new campsite or leave. I'll be honest I called him a name afterwards which was wrong of me but then he threatened to fight me and to rape my girlfriend. His words "keep it up and I'll bang Your wife" wow is that how you Run a business these days? The guy literally changed at me for calling him a name. What a man-child. We had to pack our campsite up at almost 10pm and leave with nowhere to go and no other campgrounds were open. There are plenty of other bad reviews to justify our discontentment. Do the world a favor and don't support this tyrant.

"If your going to Willowemuc Miss Mac, with me you can ride" - so she stepped up into the rig and…read moresettled down inside - she asked me if I've ever come here and will I stay a while? And I said - "listen darlin' - I'm traveling every road in this here land" And the machine that kills fascism started up in my head and sang songs of early Americana - my love of the land "Green Douglas furs where the water cuts thru - down Her wild mountains and canyons she flew - Canadian northwest and the oceans so blue" sing along now people "Roll On Columbia Roll On" - all as I'm watching little brownish grey fishies in seperate sunny huddled eddys, as if they're watching what's happening on land and perhaps waiting for a tired out mosquito to land. But ee were just looking to spend a night or two in the woods of the southern Catskills, not much more so we couldn't do it all - plus, thirteen hours of darkness now arrive around these parts in this time on the calendar (October 9tg) and just about 40* overnight with Big Phil and the new addition - Shrimp Scampi at the tender age of 15 months - one more makes a Three Dog Night - he's a stallworth young laddy passed his time chasing off all approaching fishermen and outgoing ATV's with ferociously - slightly alarming but new to the game of life, we'll just keep close watch and avoid the natives. The talk of The River permeates the crisp October air "but there's quite a few people over there" So I asked to see The Lake - we took the rig up and over rugged terrain and the lake sat perched up a twenty feet from the base campground Getting there bestowed Falls yearly yet short color splendor and grandur, the explosion of prime time foliage in the mountains. And there's something special about a swirl of fallen leaves - perhaps it's the tailspin behind us, wanting to follow but resetting instead as we rumble on. I quickly got a fire going, Marmot Limelight 2P, Vietnam Army cot, Yeti with all sorts of goodies and firewood both paid for then split with my Kelly Works axe. The ringing in my ear from the damn cellphone continually pounding and let's not leave out the grinding city rumble -- but it lightly lifted from off my soul with a bit of help from Veltins pilsner as the beer buzz began take hold - I only see Veltins upstate and not in all of these Catskill parts, so keep an eye out. Back to my beer and distractions within - I used the instructions frim my new Gillie Kettle to get my fire going as I'm not even slightly concerned about getting all 52 (inflated figure) pieces stacked and the fire going because I was going to cook a meal fit for coal miner's and accountants - a hearty thinking man's stew - but it didn't go according to plan and I got a bit miffed - so I did away with that process and put a steak on my BLACKSTONE 1650 because that's how I roll - always with backups for my backups. The thirty bucks for my campsite was fairly priced and I didn't tell y'all - I arrived on the final weekend before seasonal closing, just because I took a loopy wrong turn and I relooped it - but I'm thinking for a family with kiddos under 15, and during peak summer - this here spot is a real humdinger. For me, for what's it's worth, I'll just drive deeper into the woods - I can't say I'm a campground guy - but I respect it for what it is.

We did have a large group of ~15 people, 2 dogs and a rabbit. The owners were super friendly and kept checking up on us. Be warned that your campsite will still be somewhat near other people, so it would be helpful not to blast music at late night hours. There is running (cold) water at the sink where you can wash your stuff next to the bathhouse which also has cold water. The toilets are portable bathrooms, but they are the cleanest portable bathrooms I have ever been in! It is even scented (and you can smell it from the outside). You don't even smell whatever business is in there even while you are doing your own business. Although there is no running sink in the bathroom, they do provide hand sanitizer, but you can just walk a bit to the running sink. The waters were clear, and there was water activities nearby. You can also buy firewood and ice from the owners. You won't get much cellular service here if any at all. But the night sky was beautiful when I came to visit. It was clear and so much stars out, we even caught sight of a comet and 2 shooting stars! This place is one of my favorite campsites thanks to Kevin and Ann (the campsite owners).
