Big Indian Wilderness Paradise
Magical camping experience
This campsite was a dream for my kids, ages 5 and 8, plus my husband and I. We had a wonderful time. The tent and beds were luxurious, and everything, including the outhouse, was spotless when we got there. The creek provided endless fun for the kids, and when they weren’t at the stream, they were playing wiffle ball in the huge field next to the tent. John and AC couldn’t have been nicer hosts!

The perfect, secret spot!
Perfect weekend getaway at the “secret spot.” John & AC are expert hosts and devoted stewards to their “slice of heaven.” The spot is a true gem nestled in the Catskills. The campsite is easily accessible yet private and spacious. Hosts added thoughtful amenities and local recommendations. I definitely would camp here again. 5-stars!

Highly Recommend!
The campsite was extremely spacious!! Plent of room for yard games and the creek near the camp site was a great addition. There was a great hiking trail about 20 min from the campsite. The host was very nice supplying us with plenty of drinking water and even left s'mores materials for us!

Absolutely stunning camping site that was totally private. A.C. was super sweet & showed us around upon arrival. The outhouse was spotless—not even any bugs inside. There are two trees that were perfect for our hammock & a flat grassy area for the tent. We fell asleep to the sound of the stream. We definitely want to come back!

Camping with a view
One night is not enough at this beautiful campsite! You get a spectacular view with a mountain backdrop, trees, and the creek flowing gently. We were lucky enough to get clear skies at night and saw a ton of stars. The outhouse was a nice little a perk. John was also a great host and showed us to the site. I highly recommend staying here!!!

Thank you!!!
We loved the night we spent camping at John and AC's spot. The site itself is beautiful, with plenty of flat grassy spots from which to choose for your tent. The amenities (the outhouse, the picnic table and the fire pit) were spotless. John and AC are excellent communicators, generous hosts (AC saved the day by lending us a lighter when we forgot matches!) , and loving stewards of their gorgeous property. Thank y'all so much! We will definitely be back.
