Best all-around: Finalist

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

GREAT NEWS!!! As of April 5th, my long awaited 1st Glamping site is available for booking! Please read the description carefully of the "Gypsy Rose Vardo", to see if it's the right fit for you. We also have 10 large camping sites available on our 33 acre property located in Northwest NJ. Sites 1 through 4 are on mowed, fairly level fields and are large enough for campers or RV's up to 30ft, or a couple of tents, and sites 5 and 6 are further back in the woods, available only for a few small tents, sites 7 through 10 are much further into the property and are only accessible with a high clearance AWD or 4WD SUV or you can park and hike your gear in. There are 3 compost toilet outhouses spread out through the Hipcamp, so it's an easy walking distance from any site. Although we are only 2 1/2 miles from a main highway, the last 2 miles are on a dirt road with no houses. We are surrounded by protected land, so no neighbors and lots of wildlife, including the occasional bear, coyote or raccoon. Keep all food items secured. Because we are surrounded by protected land we are not sprayed for insects, so be safe and do tick checks often and bring the bug spray. We are 45 minutes from NYC or the Delaware Water Gap and an hour away from the NJ shore. There are horse farms nearby that offer trail rides. We are also close to the Highland and Appalachian Hiking trails. There are two reservoirs within a 20-minute drive for canoeing or kayaking. There are walking trails through our property, including a ten-minute hike on a marked trail to a small waterfall in a ravine.

Site 6 tents only

First-time hot tent camping.

The campsites and Kathleen were fantastic. This was my first experience with winter camping on a freezing night. The campsite was spacious, and firewood was available at a great price, along with plenty of wood throughout the area. I also had the opportunity to hike the trails and visit the waterfall. I will definitely return. Thanks again, Kathleen!

Site 2 - Paradise Valley Homestead

Our stay at Paradise Valley Homestead with Kathleen, was wonderful. Sites were neat, an old fashioned outhouse that was very clean, and all the nature one could ask for. We drove into NYC, took about an hour and 15 minutes.....that was all the way into the port of authority. Super easy! Highly recommend
