2 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Cabin accommodations near Montgomery offer rustic to upscale lodging options at several established campgrounds. Jellystone Park Gardiner provides family-friendly cabins with full hookups, electrical service, and on-site bathrooms with showers. Boulder Point Campground features more rustic cabin settings with drinking water and shared facilities. The Thousand Trails Rondout Valley and Peace and Carrots Farm Bluebird Tiny Home also offer cabin rentals in the area. "The Bluebird Tiny Home was one of my favorite trips - it was the perfect balance of having the necessities of home nearby while also being able to spend time outdoors," notes one visitor.
Rustic and deluxe cabins are both available, depending on the location. Smaller basic log cabins typically provide simple sleeping arrangements with minimal amenities, while larger deluxe cabins often include kitchenettes, private bathrooms, and climate control. Jellystone Park operates from April through November, with peak season during summer months when advance reservations are essential. Most campgrounds permit pets in select cabins, though restrictions may apply. According to reviews, "This place is so much fun. My whole family loved the activities, awesome pools and water area" at Jellystone, which offers some of the more family-oriented cabin accommodations.
Most cabins include beds but require visitors to bring their own linens, towels, and toiletries. Cooking facilities vary widely—premium cabins may feature small refrigerators and microwaves, while more rustic options rely on outdoor fire rings for meal preparation. On-site camp stores at Jellystone Park and Boulder Point provide basic provisions and firewood. West Point FMWR Lake Frederick and Round Pond Recreation Areas offer additional cabin options within reasonable driving distance from Montgomery, with varying levels of amenities and access to recreational activities.

GuideMade a reservation (site44) since I arrived as the sun had set. Office registration was open until 8. Staff was neither friendly nor unfriendly. Bathroom was dated but fine and a short walk from my site. CG was emptier being a Tuesday night in mid-October, so was plenty of space.
Great trail following the Hudson River. Beautiful fall colors.
RangerI'll start by saying this is a site-specific review (C20). I booked using Campspot and didn't select my own site but put in the criteria for my rig (30ft TT plus truck) and got a 50A back-in spot. The site was big but abnormal. Between the picnic table placement and the trees, I ended up right around 50ft from the electric and water, and the water spigot was so low I could barely put on my camco filter. With the uneven dirt roads, I had to unhitch with my truck in a gigantic puddle (lol). The site was otherwise fine aside from my gate code not working on Day 2. As for the campground as a whole, I thought it was pretty unique place by the river that offered several good amenities and activities, like downstream river tubing, an arcade, bathroom/shower facilities, a small store, little trails, and more. I would say this place borders the more primitive side.
ScoutRip Van Winkle Campground
Catskills NY
The Good:
1. The location
2. The actual campground itself. There are roomy sites with trees.
The Bad:
1. If you are lucky enough to get an assigned campsite away from the busy road, it is a HALF MILE walk to the only showers in the ENTIRE campground. They have nearly 200 campsites and ONE set of showers.
2. The speed bumps are beyond ridiculous. Two humpers and high as Bob Marley.
3. If you call the office for help (our electrical post was out) they record you without your knowledge.
The Ugly:
1. The campground lost power on my electrical post and tried to blame ME for it. I own a Bulldog surge protector, yeah, so it wasn't me. How it was handled was unbelievable. I have never been treated so rudely. A simple apology would have gone a long way.
ScoutWe reserved for a day. Very bad service. The river is super dirty and they did not even clean the trash cans. Besides, the fire ring has no grill cooking grate, so if you don’t bring your own NO GRILLING. Ryan was the person in front that took care of us, he was rude, my kids felt weird because he was not welcoming at all. Also, we try to ask for a partial refund since we did not felt comfortable since the beginning, and they said NO. We have experience camping, but this one was simply THE WORST. We lost the money but we won’t put our kids in a difficult situation. Thanks.
ScoutWe stay at a lot of Jellystone parks so have become accustomed to the park layouts and activities. This one was well maintained with clean facilities. Some things like the mini golf and fire pits needed maintenance. The pools were nice but get very busy later in the day. The sites up on the hills are nice but beware, it’s a hill! There is little to no WiFi or cell service or it gets easily bogged down, so be ready for that. Food was basic but good. Some activities like bingo were a bit chaotic and there were a lot of ground hornets around the jumping pillows. Would totally go again.
TravelerWe were looking for a campsite on our way up north and we’re so happy to find this one. While it is a commercial site. It is located in the woods. It has full hook up and portable water at the site. We couldn’t be happier with a warm welcome we received late at night and the cleanliness of the bathrooms and each site. I would highly recommend this campsite.
LegendExcellent campground! The forest is beautiful, the Hudson River is super close, there are great trails, and the surrounding area is beautiful. Sites are electric only, so make sure your water pump is working and fresh water tank is full. There are spigots for filling and a nice dump station. The player is excellent. I don't think tetn camping here would be great because the tent sites are closer together and there are trains that pass regularly. We couldn't hear the trains in our camper and our site was large and private with great Forest and hammock trees. The mansion tours at Vanderbilt and Mills were awesome!
ScoutThe main issue with the sites was that they were primitive -- no water. The campsites were basically just wooden platforms, with a picnic table and fire pit. There were also a lot of bugs, though this may be due to the rain. The location itself was fairly pretty and there were a number of hiking trails of not-overly-serious difficulty. The particular site we picked left is a little farther from our car than we would have liked, but for other sites you can bring your car closer.
TravelerThe campground was closed in 2024 for renovations. It is now open. I did a tour of the campgrounds but did not stay there. FYI, generators are NOT allowed at all at this campground. I did not see electric or water hookups. There are three loops. Each has it pros/cons. Sites 30-33 are near the bathroom facilities, sites 34-50 are more secluded, sites 52-65 are closer to the lake.
Cabin camping near Montgomery, New York provides access to the Hudson Valley region with elevations ranging from 400 to 1,800 feet. The area experiences humid continental climate with four distinct seasons, making spring through fall the primary camping period. Water access is common at most established campgrounds, with the Neversink and Delaware Rivers providing recreation opportunities.
River activities: At Neversink River Resort, tubing on the river offers a relaxing way to enjoy nature. "Tubing was fun. Bring bug spray," notes Evan F. Many cabin sites provide direct access to river activities during summer months.
Hiking trails: Several cabin destinations offer on-site trails connecting to larger regional networks. A visitor at High Point State Park Campground shares, "I spent two nights camping with my niece and this campground was perfect. 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."
Farm experiences: Some cabin accommodations provide unique agricultural settings. Boulder Point Campground features more rustic settings with natural surroundings. The area also includes working farms where visitors can experience sustainable agriculture practices during their cabin stay.
Private settings: Many campers appreciate the secluded nature of certain cabin sites. "Our site was even and easy to level on. Lots of locals and summer residents," explains Ian R. about his experience at Thousand Trails Rondout Valley. The creek running by the campground receives praise: "The creek that runs by the campground is gorgeous, and my kids had fun finding Crayfish."
Family-oriented activities: Organized events keep younger visitors engaged at several cabin locations. At Jellystone Park Gardiner, one visitor mentioned, "Nice pool that is shallow so you can relax and let the little ones go in the water park section alone or they have a 3 ft pool also. My older kids preferred a deeper pool but they still had a great time there they have lasertag which they enjoy. And a bounce pillow."
Lakefront cabins: Water access directly from cabin sites is highly valued. "The sites were clean and beautiful. We parked right next to our camp site and had water, fire pit, outlets, and our car all in one area," reports Daniella P. about her stay at Korns Campgrounds.
Seasonal considerations: Most cabin facilities operate from April through October, with varying amenities depending on the season. Jellystone Park offers scheduled activities that taper off in shoulder seasons, while other facilities maintain consistent service levels.
Cabin standards vary significantly: From basic sleeping structures to fully-equipped units, cabins range widely in comfort level. At Korns Campgrounds, accommodations come with specific amenities: "Between rustic power-only campsites that give you a true camping experience and upgraded but still simple cabins which allow campers of all ages and abilities to enjoy the outdoor experience, there is something for everyone."
Reservation requirements: Weekend bookings fill quickly during summer months. "We got in with no reservation, which was great. The sites are varied, some have tent platforms, it's just off the AT, but we have a trailer and the 'trailer' sites aren't level," notes a visitor at High Point State Park.
