Private sites

99% of recent Hipcampers say the sites felt private.

We invite you to come camp on 77 acres of varied land. Woods, fields, swimming pond, hiking trails, and possibly even other campers, although it's very private if that's how you'd like it. You may be perfectly content staying put, but if you seek small town offerings, Chatham (15 minutes away) offers restaurants, art galleries, a brewery, movie theatre, two bakeries, and some shops. We are half an hour from Hudson, and in the midst of plentiful Berkshire and Hudson Valley hiking, biking, antiquing, and sightseeing opportunities. Enjoy the big view from the highest corner of the big field. This is a sweet little campsite set in a birch grove with a view to the Catskills, and lots of wildlife. Two minute walk from your car, and a five minute walk to a swimming pond and a composting toilet outhouse. Near Chatham, New York where there is a brewery, cheese shop, bakery, restaurants, and a movie theatre. We are half an hour from Hudson, and in the midst of plentiful Berkshire and Hudson Valley hiking, biking and sightseeing opportunities. Early check-in and late check-out are often fine; just ask. *Special note for winter campers: depending on both snowfall and what you are driving, the parking locations may change. If we can, we will be happy to either ferry you via our 4WD, or help you carry your stuff in. The winter is really fun and beautiful. It's really nice here and we're happy to share it. LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: We are on the un-ceded land of the Stockbridge Munsee Mohicans. Black Lives Matter.

Birch Camp

Birch Camp was perfect! It was secluded, comfy, and had the most beautiful views. It was a hot weekend and we were so grateful for the pond to swim in. It was magical!

Birch Camp

Tent camping was so nice here. We really appreciated the beautiful view from atop the hill. The pond was lovely. William was very communicative and helpful if we had any questions. It felt very private, even with the small cabin just a short ways away behind the site (no one was staying in it while we were there). Campfire set up and grate worked great. No table surface but the stumps were useful. For wildlife—we caught lots of small bass in the pond and saw a black bear walk right in front of us on the dirt road. Lots of birds and bugs of all kinds. :)

Creekside tent camp

This was my third time staying at this site, and it remains one of my favorites. Quiet site and plenty of space for my dog to roam while I do the camp chores.

Birch Camp

Amazing spot. The camping spot and surrounding area is beautiful. Our host William was very helpful and answers any questions very quickly. One thing I wish I knew in advance was that the parking spot was not where you camp (because our tent was a truck tent) but it’s a quick walk to a really nice fire pit. All and all I would suggest this spot to anyone who likes a little privacy while camping and is a fan of amazing views.

This place was absolutely gorgeous! So quiet and private. Would love to come back in the summer and take advantage of the pond :)
