  Treetopia Campground

  Amazing camping/Glamping!

  Treetopia is a unique and truly amazing camping/Glamping experience in the Catskills, New York! We were able to meet Betty, Treetopia’s manager, who toured us around the campground and took us into each type of rental they provide for that special camping trip. They have RV sites, yurts, custom furnished treehouses with electricity, beautiful tiny homes with outdoor living spaces, completely remodeled vintage airstreams, and gorgeous private cabins! Every unit was more beautiful and comfortable than the next. The backdrop for the campground is the wonderful Catskill Mountains and all of the nature that includes. A wonderfully inspiring place! 😊👍🏻

  If you have an RV, they have 30/50 amp with electric and water. There is no sewer, but they have a dump-station and on-site Honeywagon truck that you can schedule. They staff was wonderful and went out of their way to make our stay perfect! 💗

  October Mountain State Forest

  Early in the season

  For some, the strange people who haunt certain grounds are a plus. For the rest of us, they are just a regular feature of the land west of the great Massassippi River. Anyway, being some of the first people to hit a campground like this one early in the season certainly has it’s benefits. For one, the bathrooms are cleeean as hail, and this place is really well-appointed. Pooping in relative comfort basically makes this glamping. They even have a big ole nice sink to wash your dirty dishes (and whatever other unmentionables, if you nasty), clean water spigots, RV sites with hookups, plenty of wood for sale, forage, or barter, and flat campgrounds with concrete fire pits with built in grill grates and wooden picnic tables. All amenities are within close walking distance, which is also a plus. The trails in October Mountain State Forest are very pretty, with some grand vistas to pull over if you’re some sort of nature pervert or lookie loo. Good fishin’ and mushroom hunting and other things white folks like to do in these parts, too.

  Now let’s get to the cons:

  bugs- this place, at the end of May is positively swarming with mosquitoes and gnats, even in the 2 rainy and cold-ass nights we spent there, the flies were everpresent. It’s Hitchcockian; and I don’t want to make any accusations or cast aspersions, but these insects are prejudiced, at best.

  massholes- these are a given. I’m one so I know.

  rangers- because this is a state park, you will have ranger patrols consisting of, um, rangers, some of whom might be more interested in what’s in your coozie than others, because, you know, rules. That said, we had no enforcement issues, but then again the camp ground was empty. Otherwise, unless you’ve got one of the few yurts onthe property, the campsites aren’t far enough apart that you ever really feel secluded. They’re not too bad, though, plenty of room.

  This place, overall, is a good time if it’s not below 60 and wet.

  Spacious Skies Woodland Hills

  A peaceful place with character.

  My first visit to New York state was amazing, largely in part due to my campsite at the Woodland Hills campground. I had a back in site and was having problems with my camper, and they were able to change to a pull through at time of check in. However, it was in early May and before the summer crowds. The pond has a fountain which sounds like a small waterfall at night, and wildflowers were in bloom. Very nice bathrooms and showers, and my dog loved the dog park.

  October Mountain State Forest

  State Forest camping near Monument Mountain

  The campground has 3 sections, located on different tiers of a hill. The lower level has RV sites, middle has tent sites, and upper has a few yurts. Each level has a bath house (3 toilet stalls and 1 shower in the lower level; it was run-down but clean enough). Outside the entrance station (near the RV sites) is a HUGE power station that emits a hum constantly. Super annoying and an eyesore. You’ll see many vehicles drive-by with boats or ATVs in tow as the state forest also has areas suitable for their use. Accessible from the campground are a few hiking trails. Monument Mountain is a popular hiking spot about 20 minutes away and Bash Bish Falls State Park is about 45 minutes away. Note: Massachusetts does not allow alcohol in their parks.

  Seasonal camping - YES, weekend/week - DEFINITELY!

  We found this site on Campendium, we needed a site close to the Lebanon Valley Speedway to watch a friend race. Our site #1A was a quick back in site with full hookups and a perfect view day or night, right on their pond.

  This area has a large seasonal population but they are super friendly and it was a pleasure to see the kids (and adults) fishing, paddling on the lake, swimming in the designated area and sitting/playing on the nice beach. Over the weekend they had organized corn hole games and several other ways to get physical and have a blast. They also had a community “Father’s Day” breakfast (fathers ate free!) which was open to all and yummy!

  Great weekend site

  We rented a rustic campsite for a long weekend and it was way better than expected. The staff was helpful, the site was pretty and there are so many places to hike and the best of the Berkshires so close by. There are only two showers in each gendered bathroom, but there are so many RVs here it never was an issue. The pool is being renovated so it is currently closed.

  Tightly squeezed sites.

  Although sites are squeezed in, it is a nice family campground. However the site I had was steep grade from steps to picnic table. Flat ground area for camper was very narrow.Tricky footing for older folks like my wife and I. Particularly since my wife uses a cane.

  Treetopia Campground

  Classy campground with caring staff!

  Treetopia is in a class all by itself! We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the campground. We went in late September and stayed on one of their deck sites with our Class B (Winnebago). I LOVED sitting out on the deck every morning for my coffee while taking in the fall air. It’s obvious that the campground recently underwent major renovation the bathrooms and showers are out of this world! Best of any campground we’ve ever visited!

  I highly recommend the deck sites to people small to moderate sized RVs and for large rigs they have some big sites.

  October Mountain State Forest

  Peaceful and clean campground

  I tent camped here in night while exploring the fishing in Western Massachusetts.

  The campsite was peaceful and quiet and mostly tucked into the hillside.

  I did see the electrical station at the entrance but the sound didn’t reach where I was staying at site 33. To avoid that sound, I would suggest sites further up the road.

  The sites offered medium privacy. Site 33 was built into a slope in the hill, so it required walking up a short set of stairs, but the tent site was level.

  I didn’t explore the hiking trails but it seems very convenient that you could leave into the trails right from the campground.

  For any fly fishing folks, this campground is very close to the Housatonic (catch and release only!)

  Near a power station

  It cost me $52 because I am not a Massachusetts resident, per night. I got site number one you can hear the hum of the electric station. The Ranger said he doesn’t even notice it anymore. The trails are pretty it’s Labor Day weekend I’m lucky to have a spot. Would not recommend it.

  October Mountain State Forest

  A quirky little campground ... that feels like an X-Files Location

  **General Notes: **

  We had a nice time overall  this place is A quirky little campground that feels like an X-Files Location.  

  This is a smallish campground which is divided into two sections: RV (lower area near entrance) and Tent (upper area).  However, there are tents allowed in the RV section as well.   RV area is wide open with no privacy and Tent area is more wooded with more privacy.  All sites are very close to one another.  

  We stayed at site 37 in the upper tent area. 

  Pros:

  1.Nice  & helpful staff

  2.Very clean bathrooms with very clean shower

  3. Access to stunning hiking trails, including the Appalachian Trail

  Cons:

  1. Several of the upper area tent sites are basically on a ramp.  It was almost comical how slanted the site(s) was.  Things would slide off the picnic table often and we tried to level the table but then our feet could barely touch the ground when sitting - adorably comical. 

  2. In other reviews, you will read about the hum from power station which is directly across the street from the site … it's real.   We had it less at site 37 than the lower sites. 

  3. There would also be a train that would pass by - trains can be charming but this one seemed to stop often near by and rev it's engine for about an hour … it was very strange. 

  4. You may see in another review (which I think is no longer up now?) that there are a fair amount of Daddy Long Legs.   There are.   A lot.  We know that bugs are a part of camping, absolutely  … but this was almost boarding on, well  …  an X-Files episode.  They are  e v e r y w h e r e.   Some standing guard as if they want to stay out you way.  Others rushing around as if they are trying to get home because they realized they left the gas on.   We always are mindful of our tent zippers and so we had no visitors inside our tent … but they were very abundant.

  October Mountain State Forest

  Some flaws to be aware of

  The pros: bathrooms are clean with three stalls (women). Free showers. Good location for hunting

  Cons: what site you get makes all the difference. There are Many, I would say most, Sites that you feel very exposed (Like I would jot be comfortable staying there) and out in the open. Just plopped next to someone on the grass. I want to feel like im in the woods. Look for the sites that go off to the side (not on the loops) like 39-40. Additionally, there is a station nearby that offers a constant hum and during the week there are trucks going in and out of before 7am. The closer to the street side the worse it is. The far off sites (like 39-40) the sound is still there but more distant. Sites are closer together and on the smaller side

  Pretty quiet

  Our specific site was a little close to others, but not all were like that. The facilities were clean and the campground was fairly quiet. There are tons of hiking and driving trails around the area to keep yourselves occupied. The whole area is a really nice area.

  Great tree filled, cozy campground

  This campground is at the base of October mountain. The sites are varied from grassy meadows by the entrance to wooded canopys uphill. Facilities were good, cleaned frequently. Great trail system starts right at the edge of the campground also. Great over all experience for this first timer.

  Neighborhood Camping

  A clean and for the most part quiet camp spot. However it is near an electrical plant that has a hum all day & night—makes for great white noise when sleeping.

  There is a road that seems to house construction vehicles that were busy going by early evening and early morning.

  The park is great if you are traveling and need to pull off the interstate to rest your head and get a shower. The bathrooms were very clean.

  The staff were all incredibly nice and helpful. I felt safe in this campground.

  The photos people posted are deceiving as they are taken from other places and not right in the campsite.

  I would stay here again when passing through but would not make it a multi day stay.

  Clean and quiet

  Some of the sites are very visible and a few are tucked away into the woods with privacy. Most are pretty close to their neighbors. Although we were here on Wednesday and Thursday during the summer and the campground was pretty quiet after 9PM. The rangers are super friendly and the bathrooms are clean.

  Clean and peaceful.

  We stayed here October 2016 and had a great time.

  The bathrooms were clean and well-maintained.

  Campsite #3 was level and plenty big for our fiberglass camper and our tent. (And car)

  Hiking was MOST EXCELLENT!!!
  We got to walk to the Appalachian trail. (First time for me)

  There was an absolutely GIANT beaver dam.

  The trails were completely perfectly maintained with some 2x6 boards over the muddy bits so our boots didn't get wet.

  The leaves were starting to turn, but it was a bit early in the season to get really fantastic foliage.
