Best Cabin Camping near Greenville, NY

Several state parks and private campgrounds near Greenville, New York provide cabin rentals with varying amenities. Sebago Cabin Camp in Harriman State Park offers rustic cabins equipped with cots, electricity, refrigerators, and double hot plates. "The cabins are rustic but there's what you need: cots, electricity, a fridge," notes one visitor. Croton Point Park features cabins that operate year-round, with electric hookups and shower facilities. The Stephen & Betsy Corman AMC Harriman Outdoor Center provides more secluded cabin options with market access. Most cabins include outdoor fire rings, picnic tables, and access to communal bathrooms, though interior amenities vary significantly by location.

Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available throughout the region, with prices reflecting comfort levels and amenities. Pet-friendly cabins can be found at West Point FMWR Round Pond Outdoor Recreation Area and Mahlon Dickerson Reservation, while Camp Glen Gray prohibits pets. Family-sized cabins typically feature multiple rooms with twin or full beds. According to one Heckscher State Park visitor, "Modern facility with full kitchen accessories, propane fireplace, WiFi access, bathroom with shower, large screened-in porch with bar height table and chairs." Reservations are essential during summer months, particularly for weekend stays. Some locations like High Point State Park Campground operate seasonally from April through October, while others maintain year-round availability.

Most basic cabin rentals provide beds without linens, requiring guests to bring their own bedding, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary dramatically between properties, from fully equipped kitchens with refrigerators, microwaves, and cookware to simple setups with only outdoor fire rings for cooking. Firewood is available for purchase at most locations, including Sebago Cabin Camp where weekend communal bonfires are common. Camp stores at larger facilities stock essential supplies, though selection is limited. For extended stays, bringing groceries from larger towns is recommended as on-site options typically cover only basic needs like ice, snacks, and camping supplies.

    Heckscher State Park Campground

    Great Late Fall Weekend Cabin

    This was a last-minute booking for us and we were delighted with the beachside cottage, with enough amenities that mom and dad did not worry we had their cutie with us for "camping". She's too little for backpacking into the woods but finally got to stay overnight and help with the campfire!

    Pros

    • Modern facility with full kitchen accessories (coffee maker, plates, wine opener, can opener, silverware, pots, pans, cooking utensils, toaster, oven), sponge/dish liquid. Microwave.1
    • Clean interior, clean campground
    • modern cottage with propane fireplace, WiFi access, bathroom with shower, large screened in porch with bar height table and 4 chairs, deck with chaise lounges, two bedrooms (1 with 2 twin beds, 1 with full), coach, chairs, plenty of clean storage places and hooks. You have everything but bedding, food, drinks, and personal items.
    • cottages far enough away from each other
    • fire ring with Adirondack chairs
    • dumpster and recycling within walking distance
    • lots of bone dry firewood around for campfire
    • walkable beach
    • beautiful
    • wildlife: deer, rabbits, turtles

    Cons

    • a bit pricey
    • playground is driving distance not walking

    Sebago Cabin Camp — Harriman State Park

    No RV sites a step up from tent camping.

    They have rustic cabins. Theae do not have plumbing or heat. It is a step up from cabin camping. They also have a beach behind it.

    Heckscher State Park Campground

    Like camping in a city park, the beach cottages are the highlight

    My husband and and I camped one night at this newly reopened park over the weekend in Long Island just to check it out and were pretty disappointed by the tent camping area. There are 69 tent/trailer sites(no hook ups). There is no distinguishing separation between each site nor a designated driveway for your car- you merely pull up on the grass. It's basically like camping in your local city park. People park wildly all over the place, which also makes it more difficult to determine which site is which by the number painted on the roadway. Each"site" has a picnic table and an barbecue grate on a post. There is one bath/shower house in the center of all of these sites with no path provided for folks to walk to and fro, so naturally people will walk right through your site randomly rather than around the road. While the bathroom building itself is in decent shape and has a large amount of toilet stalls and about five showers, the condition of women's room was absolutely ghastly inside.

    At some point during the evening, a maintenance worker on a golf cart showed up with a mop and some cleaning supplies and cleaned the men's side of the building. I was so relieved when I saw him, but he seemed to neglect the women's side completely, so I resorted to using the men's facilities all night.

    There are no fire pits on any of the sites, although I learned afterwards that they do allow you to bring your own metal fire pit as long as it is elevated off the ground. There are large dumpsters located throughout the camping area and a large trash bag is provided (if needed) at the camp office when you check in.

    The highlight of Heckscher State Park is the newly constructed heated cottages located on the shore of Nichol's& Great South Bays.. There are currently 11 cottages--- with more under construction. There are cottages suited for two, four, and six people and range in price from$225-$285 per night during off peak seasons and$250- 320 per night during the peak seasons.

    The cottages are fully furnished, with a full kitchen and large bathroom with a walk in shower. The cottages are a short walk from the beach and also include a fire pit with Adirondack chairs and an outdoor shower on the exterior each property. I do not have photos of the inside, but they do have them on the Reserve America website if you are interested.

    While the cottages are lovely and their location is fabulous  they are quite pricey and  no TLC was spent in the$22 tent/rv camping area, other than a new registration office which is not yet completed as of this weekend. I do hope they invest some funding in the primitive area to add fire pits,more water spigots, clearer site markings and for the continued maintenance& upkeep of the bath/shower house.

    * I emailed the parks departement about the issues mentioned above about the camping area and received this reply:

    I am sorry that you are upset with the conditions in our recently opened campgrounds. We have replaced all of the picnic tables. Although, they may look old because they are weathered since these picnic tables were put together during the Winter, however, they are brand new. All of the barbeques are also new and were installed during the Winter. We have changed and modernized the light fixtures and we will be replacing the rusted doors that you mentioned. There are also plans to install a playground within the campground beginning this Fall and we are looking for other improvements and additions to the campgrounds. As you probably noticed there is a new building under construction, at the entrance to the campgrounds, and it will serve as a check-in area, as well as, additional comfort stations, including family restrooms. Your suggestion of fire pits is a good one and the Park Managers will evaluate the feasibility of installing these. Lastly, I have spoken to the Park Manager who will review the cleaning operation to ensure the restrooms are appropriately maintained. I apologize for our employee not cleaning the women's room. Again, I am sorry for your negative experience but we are continuing to make improvements to the campgrounds.

    Sincerely, George Gorman Regional Director New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation

    I will check back later this year to see if anything was changed and report back.

    High Point State Park Campground

    Relaxing and Well-Maintained

    Stayed 2 nights and it was really nice. Camping for summer is pretty limited to Sawmill Lake, as the other locations are for groups or winter camping. Camps are secluded from each other and most if not all have an elevated space to put tents or chairs. Each place comes with a lamp hang, a fire pit, and a picnic table. Bathrooms are spaced out. No running water except for pump founded outside of the bathrooms. Toilets are pump flushed. Showers are only located INSIDE High Point State Park, not throughout the campsites, but entry is free for campers. One hiking trail is accessible in Sawmill campground, 3 others are accessible on the road outside of the campground and the rest are located inside the park. When you arrive you have to check in with the park office for your campsite tag. Hours are 8-4. Park officials come through the campsites pretty regularly, a few times a day which is nice. Areas are clean and well maintained.

    Pleasant Acres Farm RV Resort

    RV and Cabin Rental Only...and a miniature horse!

    It is important to note that there is only RV and cabin rentals offered at Pleasant Acre. The grounds are up on top of a mountain and is quite beautiful and quiet. This is a great place to get away and bring your family and dogs. They offer several planned activities for kids and they have nice facilities like a great swimming pool and ping pong. Important to not miss: the amazingly beautiful miniature horse that wonders around its huge pin located in the middle of the campground.

    Croton Point Park

    Not the Best Place to Go in the Northeast By a Longshot

    Croton Point Campground is a modest little campground, located along the Hudson River within Croton Point Park in NY. In addition to camping, the park itself offers many of its own attractions, including swimming, hiking, kayaking, cabin rentals, and a host of other family-oriented activities just along the Hudson. 

    The park, which is honestly probably the largest attraction here, is located just an hour and a half outside of the city. This proximity is both its perk and its downfall, as the park itself, but particularly the campground, has become laden with all sorts of inexplicable and burdensome rules, endless guidelines, and restrictions only a New York State-run bureaucracy could ever make sense of, let alone hope to justify. 

    This includes all manner of restrictions on how you can camp, where you can camp, what equipment can be used, and use in relation to what particular site you may have been lucky enough to reserve. Much of this you can understand while imagining what may have taken place here to bring them to such measures, but it doesn't make it any easier to contend with. 

    In terms of the actual camping conditions Both the tenting section and RV sites are each very clustered together, and quite crowded, with regular patrols🚓(actual patrols) being made day and night, by both the Park Rangers and what appears to be general park staff members, all looking to see if you or your family might be doing something that they might consider outside of the guidelines or not in compliance with the many restrictions. 

    This is not to say you can't possibly have a good time here. It just might mean being a bit more diligent toward reviewing the potential legitimacy of your normal camping routine to ensure it meets with many restrictions and guidelines imposed, while also making yourself comfortable with some fairly regular surveillance during your stay here. These all being things we hoped to get away from while camping ourselves It just turned out to be a bit much for our particular liking.

    Heckscher State Park Campground

    Good Campsite For Families And Weekend Trips

    I camped here solo on Friday and Saturday over the Labor Day weekend. Overall my experience was positive.

    Camping Sites

    Each camping site has a picnic table and barbeque grill. The sites are designated by printing on the roads and do not have clear boundaries between them. My site had good shade coverage and was free of rocks and other hazards. 

    I had enough space that I didn't feel like I was intruding on my neighbors and vice-versa. That said, there aren't clear paths to the restroom building so it's not uncommon for people to cut through the edges of sites to get there. In my experience I (and others I saw) tried not to go right through the middle people's setups to do so.

    If you're looking for privacy, the sites at the rear seemed to be less-densely packed, even though every site was occupied. Quiet hours are generally adhered to but not enforced - there were some campers that had noise running later.

    Amenities

    The restroom building is in the middle of the campground and was clean and had plenty of stalls.

    Potable water is available at regular intervals, about at the corners of each group of four campsites.

    Cell phone reception is limited - I had data but it was very slow which led to my phone's battery draining quickly.

    Access

    A car is an absolute must for this part - the entrance is directly off of Southern State Parkway with no pedestrian access. Train stations are nearby so you could take the train most of the way and rent a car from there.

    Mahlon Dickerson Reservation

    Great little campground

    Mahlon Dickerson Campground is a true gem. It is a small campground nestled in the woods. There are level padded sites with electric and water (in warmer months). Sites were spaced out with beautiful woods in the background. Hiking trail goes right through the campground. There is a bathroom with showers that is heated in the colder months. There is a water spigot at the bathrooms to fill up your water tanks. Dump station also on site. Each site has a nice picnic table and fire ring. I really enjoyed this campground and would go back again.


Guide to Greenville

Cabins near Greenville, New York sit within the Hudson Valley region, an area characterized by rolling hills and dense forests at elevations between 500-1,800 feet. Winter temperatures regularly drop below freezing from December through February, while summer months average 75-85°F with moderate humidity. Many cabin sites feature wooden platforms to keep tents and equipment elevated during occasional heavy rainfall periods.

What to do

Hiking on the Appalachian Trail: Access points near High Point State Park Campground offer day-hike options. "I stopped at this shelter while hiking the AT in High Point SP. The shelter has the usual facilities, privy, water source (must be filtered), bear box, etc," notes Richard M.

Visit historic monuments: The High Point Monument stands 1,803 feet above sea level. "We took one afternoon to visit the High Point Monument, which was lovely," writes Dwight D. The panoramic views extend across multiple states on clear days.

Fishing at local lakes: Multiple fishing spots exist within a 30-minute drive. "We fit in a hike up to the Appalachian Trail from our campsite, swam at the pond (Lake Marcia), and got in a fishing session at Steeny Kill Lake," says Justin P. from High Point State Park.

What campers like

Private woodland sites: Many campers appreciate the secluded nature of cabins in this region. At Mahlon Dickerson Reservation, "the campground is small but also secluded. We always hike to the lake here, it's a very easy hike and also very peaceful," according to Paulene-Amanda M.

Lake access for swimming: Several cabin locations offer lake amenities. "The lake is beautiful in the morning with mist or steam," reports one High Point State Park camper. Swimming areas typically have designated boundaries.

Platform camping options: Many sites feature elevated wooden platforms. At Mahlon Dickerson, "They have these 12x12 platforms to put your tent on. This was pretty cool especially since some of the sites are all gravel with surrounding dirt," explains Christina L.

What you should know

Limited facilities at some locations: Bathroom amenities vary significantly by site. At Croton Point Park, "Only one or two bathrooms in the whole place so be prepared to go for a walk when you have to go," warns Isabel L.

Reservation systems differ by location: Some parks require phone booking while others use online systems. "The reservation process is a bit wonky. You need to call (no online reservations) and then wait for an e-mail, but the e-mail does not tell you your assigned site," explains Lee D. about Croton Point Park.

Wildlife considerations: Wildlife encounters require proper food storage. "Keep your food in the dry bag and away from the tent or benches provided or face the packs of fearless racoons at night," advises Anil S.

Tips for camping with families

Playgrounds and child-friendly spaces: Several cabin areas include dedicated play areas. At West Point FMWR Round Pond Outdoor Recreation Area, "We were very impressed with the playground on site!" says Jacey H.

First-time camping sites: Some locations are particularly suited for novice family campers. "I took my 5 year-old-son and wife, all of us first time campers. This place was great. The site was very nice, all the people friendly and area beautiful," reports Kevin G. about Croton Point Park.

Holiday-themed activities: Fall and winter holidays often feature special programming. "We came in October to celebrate Halloween in sleepy hollow! This is a great campsite and reasonably priced. Was close to bear mountains state park and the train station is right there!" shares Wendy C.

Tips from RVers

Hookup access and lengths: Electric and water hookup distances vary by site. At Mahlon Dickerson, "Website lists water hook ups at long distances but they have hose reels to help with that. Our site (15) said 75' however the 50' hose reel made it to our RV connection," notes one camper.

Navigation considerations: Some cabin areas have access restrictions. "Easy to navigate our 38 ft. RV. Easy to dump and fill. Peaceful. Close to train to N.Y. City," reports Nancymike K. about Camp Glen Gray.

Site leveling: Prepare for varied terrain at some locations. At The Stephen & Betsy Corman AMC Harriman Outdoor Center, "The parking for your car is 1/4 mile away but they allow you to unload and give you a wagon to take stuff to your site," explains Thomas M., highlighting the importance of planning for gear transport.
