We are currently having warm days for hiking and exploring, cool evenings perfect for sauna and hot tub relaxation, and cold clear nights with clear incredible star gazing potential We are currently planning on closing for the winter on Nov 15th…if the weather permits we will try a little later Welcome to our dream! Located less than 5 minutes from the Delaware River and about 25 minutes from Bethel Woods Arts Center, our 1969 “Woodstock-inspired” cabin at Hippie Havens Homestead invites you to turn back the calendar to the grooviest time of peace, love, and music.  Located in gorgeous secluded nature, just 2 hours from the George Washington Bridge and New York City, we are a world away, choosing peace and quiet over bustle and noise.   Hippie Havens Homestead has ten glorious acres to explore, complete with Hot tub, large gardens, and killer vibes. Stargaze, River Tube, relax, and chill OR hike your heart out, catch concerts at Bethel Woods, enjoy scenic Catskill towns, visit the charming town of Narrowsburg, and explore this magnificent region  --- there’s so much to do and enjoy. You can use our space to prepare or unwind from a big concert night at Bethel Woods, as a chill spa anniversary retreat, as a base camp haven for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, or as a cozy home base to savor the delights of the region. We have a very large organic garden that can be toured and in-season produce that can be purchased. It is our goal to include EVERYTHING you need to enjoy your weekend. Bring food, drinks, cooking oil and coffee creamer, we can take care of the rest. Onsite amenities include: -salt water hot tub -WiFi -tubes and equipment to borrow to tube the Delaware River (6 minutes to closest River put in) -hammocks and hammock thrones -a spring-fed pond -grills for cooking -a Yukon Solo fire pit for vibes (10 pieces of firewood are included but more is available for  purchase) -a large collection of 1960’s vinyl records ( and a player) to bring you back to those Hippie Days -a celestron telescope for stargazing our beautiful skies -A small library of local interest Catskill travel books and various books relating to Woodstock. -Locally roasted coffee (from our next door neighbor The 2 Queens) and locally blended Tea (from The Herbal Scoop in Narrowsburg) -Guitar to make some music -Robes for coziness -color changing “vibey” lights -trampoline for fun! -COMPLETELY DOG AND PET FRIENDLY  —If you are travelling with a small group we would be happy to welcome a 3rd and 4th person in our two tent sites. We have a large tent with a queen air mattress or you can use the large tent for one person and a smaller tent for your fourth. The second smaller tent has a twin air mattress. Both tents come with sleeping bag, sheets, pillows, blankets, a robe, towel set, tent lantern, small flashlight, water bottle and power charger bank. We are so proud to welcome you to Hippie Havens, a groovy place to “Let the SunShine In.”   ———————————————-   About us: ——I’m Shaggy, my wife is Kendra-we moved here and began creating Hippie Havens in 2019. For 10+ years we lived in New York City in a 4 bedroom apartment with 8 roommates and ONE bathroom, so moving to Narrowsburg was a huge change matched only by the huge project lists we needed to complete. Now we are so excited to share how far we’ve come and what we’ve learned so far.   I have been OBSESSED with the original Woodstock and Hippie Vibes since I was 14 years old when I first performed in the musical “Hair”. This was the first step in my acting career… a journey that led to meeting Kendra in 2009 in the musical “Rent” in Charleston, SC.  We were married in a big Hippie Musical Festival—themed wedding in nearby Woodbourne, NY and we continued our lives as actors.  Then came “Hair” into our lives again, and we did HUNDREDS of performances across the USA and Europe.  We knew that a part of us never wanted to leave the 60s, and this inspired us to “theme our cabin” to celebrate Woodstock and the Hippie Movement.   CABIN INFO: It’s a small cozy cabin with a lot of Big Deck Energy! The cabin is a studio Single room just over 150 square feet. The inside of the cabin is equipped with a Queen Bed, WiFi, fans, color- changing LED lights, outlets, a coffee station, a water filter, and hot water kettle. We included a record player and a library of 60s vinyl to enjoy as well as my old Guitar and a library of books concerning local info and Woodstock. The cabin is surrounded on 3 sides by a large deck. One part has a pair of hammock chairs, the large part has a fire pit surrounded by an outdoor couch set and rocker. It also has a tall dining setup for two. The back deck is our kitchen and bathroom deck. Our bathroom consists of a composting toilet and a shower. All the flowing water to the shower and outdoor sink is collected rain water -- you cannot drink the tap water. The cabin is on the far corner of the cleared part of our land. It is “semi-private”, meaning that while we live on the property, we will leave you to your vacation unless you need us for something-or if you would like to share a moment we'd be delighted. We have ten acres for you to wander. Our woods are inviting and easy to explore. The perimeter is marked with pink flags-PLEASE PLEASE wear high visibility on both your body and your pet's during fall's hunting season. A spring-fed pond makes for lovely reflection, and the seasonal frog song in the evenings is pure magic. The nights are incredibly starry and brilliant.  We are located very rurally with almost no neighbors in sight from our property (they are there though so please keep the music down after 10 p.m.)   If you are after relaxation, we have installed a salt water hot tub and a wood burning sauna (sauna is an additional fee). Hot tub is equipped with an outdoor surround-sound entertainment system ideal for watching concerts or shows!). As a general rule of thumb, most hot tub sessions should last between 15 and 45 minutes. While soaking, we recommend taking breaks, Hydrating, resting, and then entering the spa again. Please keep all hot tub sessions to a "Reasonable Length and Time".   Since moving up here, my wife has become an incredible farmer. Two of the most prominent features on our land are our large greenhouse and garden. Tours of these are possible when wife and I are available-and in season vegetable, herb, and produce purchases are possible. (Please do not tour gardens or greenhouse without one of us with you)   IMPORTANT TO NOTE: *Our bathroom system setup for cabin is a hybrid rain collection/composting setup. The bathroom and shower are outdoor and rustic-please do not book if outdoor rustic bathrooms and showers are a deal breaker for you. The toilet will not flush as it is a composting non water toilet from Nature’s Head. The water that runs from the sink and the shower is Rainwater collection and not suitable for drinking or consumption. Please conserve water.   *Our property isn’t suitable for bare feet.  Livin-brambles, thorns, and sharp things exist here-its safer to wear shoes of some sort.   *Renting a hot tub (especially a beloved hot tub!) can be real dicey. It only takes one bad apple to make a gross apple hot tub stew. Our salt water tub uses less chemicals than a chlorine tub so  please Please PLEASE be VERY RESPECTFUL and please DON’T BE DISGUSTING in our tub so we can continue to rent it. Do not spill in tub, do not use glass in tub, for GODS SAKES don’t pee in the tub. If tub needs to be emptied and cleaned, we HAVE TO charge you a $400 fee-no joke-don’t be nasty. **ANOTHER HOT TUB NOTE-heating a hot tub is EXPENSIVE-please enjoy the tub for a responsible amount of time. We REQUIRE you to replace the cover when you are done using the hot tub. Forgetting to re-cover hot tub will incur a $250 fee—seriously!! It’s easy to close-please close it.   *Please respect our privacy—-     Do not knock on or come to our front or back door-please try messaging, or texting,     Our house and back deck are off limits as is our woodshed and tool shed. The garden and greenhouse (and berry garden) are only available to visit with one of us present. We have to pay a lot for firewood to heat house in winter-we have additional wood available to purchase. Please do NOT help yourself.   *EVERYTHING on property is “use at your own risk”. Please be careful around trampoline and all water activity.   *Please be mindful when building fires-keep fire size manageable   *PETS* we are 100% pet friendly but please keep two things in mind: -TAJ! Our goldendoodle Taj is a real sweet beast and he rules the roost, free ranging during the days. If your pet doesn’t play well with others, let us know and we can work something out. —-WILD BEASTS-we get ALL OF THEM-I strongly recommend keeping your pet on a long leash during evening and at night —Very 420 friendly but we ask that you enjoy outside on large deck and refrain from hot boxing the cabin. —Here at Hippie Havens we love nature-and we have a lot of it. This property has insects, frogs, snakes, bear, ticks, skunks, mosquitos, and other woodland animals found outside in the Catskills as well as hazardous indigenous plants like poison ivy. The bathrooms are outdoors and rustic. —cabin doesn’t lock-we live in a VERY safe area but we recommend leaving anything you want locked up in your locked vehicle. — Features like bugs, the composting toilet, and the cabin’s rustic nature are fully disclosed in our listing. As such, we do not offer refunds for any conditions mentioned in the property description. By booking this lodging/camping, you agree to save and hold harmless Hippie Havens LLC, and Brett Travis and Kendra Payne from any liability arising out of your stay. You acknowledge that there are natural hazards such as uneven surfaces, bodies of water, wildfire, wildlife and noxious plants that are beyond the control of the owner, and their are manmade hazards such as the hot tub and sauna, trampoline, hammocks and buildings, and you assume all responsibility for your own safety.

Dog friendly Hippie Haven ❤️
Shaggy and Taj were so friendly and were there to greet us upon arrival. Cute and cozy cabin! It overlooks a beautiful property view which includes rolling hill background and the main house a couple hundred feet down the hill. The hot tub is a short walk over towards the back of the main house but it felt very private. Our dogs loved playing with Taj during our stay. Thanks for the hospitality!

We had a great time! The campfire on the deck, the hot tub, the sauna, and all the little extras in the cabin were all enjoyable. We will be back again!

The Hippie Havens Experience
Everything about this property was just awesome. From the moment we got there Shaggy was very welcoming (and his goldendoodle Taj!) and spent time going over the basics before leaving us to experience his beloved land. Very accommodating down to earth hosts and gave really cool recommendations to explore and visit around the area. It was a very relaxing weekend just enjoying the peaceful beauty Hippie Havens had to offer. Exceeded any expectations we had, everything is well thought out regarding what you need or may use. The cabin itself is very welcoming and all the Woodstock decor pulls everything together to make for some great vibes. The land it sits on is gorgeous with a great view, the sunrise and starry night skies were an added bonus. Truly all around a wonderful experience, especially for my first time on hipcamp and cant wait to go back! No complaints, definitely would recommend. Thank you!

Has all the vibes!
Our stay at Shaggy and Kendra’s hippie haven was both out of this world and very peaceful! We loved exploring the woods behind the housing unit and taking a soak while watching tv in the hot tub, their space had it all. Our room was cozy, well equipped with locally crafted tea, soft robes, and a fun selection of records that tied together the groovy Woodstock theme. We were even greeted with fresh flowers from their greenhouse! Shaggy went the extra mile of meeting us despite our super late arrival to ensure we had an understanding of how to access all the amenities which allowed for a freedom and ease for the duration of our visit. Genuinely kind hosts who know how to curate a welcoming environment. One of my favorite Hipcamp experiences, we hope to visit again!

Catskills and beauty
Both Shaggy and his wife were super helpful, but also respected our desire for peace and serenity. The cabin was tiny but perfect for our needs. Any accommodation I requested were met and I couldn’t have expected a better experience. Only downside was that compost toilet. It’s as clean as could be expected but still kinda gross. I’m sure the price would reflect it if they upgraded to proper modern plumbing but in a way it might steal some of the charm. Best possible ratings for these guys.
