This private, breathtaking property is nestled directly on the Neversink River, located just one mile from Exit 109 off NY-17 (new I-86). Join us on 3 sprawling acres, and enjoy the serene beauty of the Neversink River. The property is ideal for anyone looking to escape to a secluded, quiet area, with everything from Bald Eagles, Deer, Rabbits, and other local wildlife. Fell free to step right into the shallow river, just footsteps from your tent, and enjoy some smores by the riverside firepit. The river typically doesn't exceed more than 3 feet of depth throughout the entire property (unless high rain totals). Relatively short drives to local attractions include the newly renovated Holiday Mountain Ski & Fun Park (1.2 miles), Resorts World Catskills Casino (2.6 miles), the Kartrite Indoor Water Park (2.9 miles), and Bethel Woods Center for the Arts (18.4 mile), home to the 1969 Woodstock music festival. 2 gas stations, a liquor store and supermarket are also within 2 miles of the property, as well as local eateries. We recommend bringing inflatables and or kayaks to take advantage of the beautiful river. Guests can drop in a few miles up river, and float down to the campsite. Trip can take anywhere from 1 hour to 3 hours depending on current flow and or paddle strength. We hope to have you stay with us!The 3 acre camping area is manicured grass and wild forest, with walking paths throughout the property. The Isle is surrounded by water, with one access way for vehicles, and another for foot traffic. Natural local vegetation can be seen throughout the campsite. Expect beautiful views both up-river and down-river, with the spectacular American Bald Eagle and other local birds constantly soaring through the river basin. Campers can expect private areas of the island, great for sunbathing and or picnicking. The campsite was once a family run tree nursery, which supplied locals with trees, shrubs, and flowers sourced from all over the world, starting all the way back in the 1880's. The entire property (120+ acres) has been in the family since the 1790's, and remains to this day. Remnants still remain of the once successful business, but have been covered by years of overgrowth. Some trees have the remaining burlap sacks still around the root ball. Walking and biking is very popular along the river, as the entire road is located right alongside the water. Kayaking and rafting are ideal for the property. 2 Gas stations, a liquor store and supermarket are less than 2 miles away, with local eateries within the vicinity as well. Feel free to ask the host about local recommendations for food and entertainment.

Paradise on the river
We loved camping on Blake's land. The spot is just as advertised - quiet, private, clean and well maintained. We saw lots of wildlife. The spot is perfect for kids and dogs - we do not have any kids but our dogs loved the river. Would not hesitate to book again if in the area! Thanks Blake for allowing us to camp!

The site was beautiful. We luckily had the whole place to ourselves and the dogs were really happy running around. We stayed at the bamboo site 3 and felt it was perfectly cozy for us. The outhouse was a nice walk and clean. We enjoyed walking around the property, playing in the river and looking at the stars at night. A truly lovely experience.

Perfect site
I took my 4 year old on his first camping trip. Blake's spot was perfect! The site was clean,private, and tranquil. We saw deer, two bald eagles, and a kayaker catch a salmon. The river is amazing, perfect for little kids to just walk around in and explore. Can't wait to come back.

Great site, very well cared-for by Blake. I cut my trip short due to bad weather, but I can't wait to come back.
