We have three different sites to choose from: Tiny House, Glamping, and Camp Site. Each is unique and private from each other! The bathroom is shared with the other sites, but it is covered and well maintained. Enjoy our private outdoor shower and toilet! Extras are available to purchase: firewood bundle, wine tasting and farm fresh eggs. All of our sites are animal friendly! Let your dog roam here! Our property sits on the foothills of the Adirondack's on 45 beautiful acres just 15 minutes east of Albany. Choose to explore our vineyard and winery on site and opt into our wine tasting next door. Open April-October, Friday-Sunday, 10-4pm Trails and walking paths are throughout the property and you may even catch our horses and honey bees that roam our beautiful community! Across the street is the Empire Foot/Rail Trails which is special for walking and biking. Local landmarks nearby and easy access to HWYs. Waterfalls and nice parks nearby Just a short distance away, our special community area that hosts yoga classes, and gathering sites: picnic tables, fire pits, gardens etc! We are just a short distance away from Troy and Albany

Good Karma at Dharma
Dharma Bums Eco Farm has a relaxed, laid back vibe to it. Many tent camping sites to enjoy, large fire pit, hammocks strung up on an old geodesic jungle gym, and facilities: composting toilet and shower area. The TenyTinyTudor will accommodate one person comfortably, or one person & a pet. It’s a bit of a tight squeeze for two people. If in doubt, reach out & contact Val with your questions. Though we did not stay the night-due to unforeseen circumstances beyond our control-Val worked with us on refunding our payment.

Tent area was nice with picnic tables provided. Close to the rail trail. Toilet and shower area could use a little more maintenance.

Great campsite. We spent only one night on our way to NY. Since we checked in at night, it was a little bit hard to find as there was not a clear sign. Overall pleasant experience.

Great spot, minimalist bathroom.
This space is great, Val is awesome! Bathroom is open air and when we were there, there was no hot water. But still would highly recommend and would return!

Camp Site (Tent) @ Dharma Bums
So close but so wonderful!
The area is full of trees and grass, the campsites are far enough from each other allowing ample privacy. The toilet/sink/shower area was clean and stocked with necessities. There is a sitting area (with live music) for guests at the vineyard for wine tasting and other refreshments. We didn't partake this time but will next time... Yes, we are planning to return... We felt like it was the wilderness but only 20 minutes from home! Val was friendly and accommodating, stopping by to see if we needed anything after we had set up. All in all a great 24 hour experience...impending storms made us pack up earlier than we would have liked, so next time we'll stay 2 nights!
