    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! 💗

    Moon Valley Campground

    Very unique smaller private campground

    This was a great campsite nestled in the foothills of Northern NJ on the NY border. Small, clean with great views and great location for hiking , cruising etc. Bring your tent or use the existing glamping tents. Headed back for a fall weekend in the "dome" which has incredible views. Try it you won't be sorry.

    Oakland Valley Campground

    Family friendly campground

    Nice, family friendly campground with 3 levels to camp at. Top level has a pool, showers and bathrooms with laundry area and game room. Middle level has open field with bathrooms with sinks and running water. There is water and electric on the sites at the middle level. River level has more primitive bathrooms and some bathrooms with running water. You can camp right next to the river and it has a great view.

    Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground

    Great Spot!

    Big and spacious state park with many camping options. Has options for trailers, tent sites, platforms for tents and even some cabins. Small store in park that sells firewood and ice and a few other things you may need. Big lake with swimming and boating as well as many hiking trails. Bathrooms on site as well as showers. Some sites are close together, but there are a few a little more secluded and set back. Fire pits are great. Can’t wait to camp here again!

    Neversink River Resort

    run down but decent-

    Not a whole lot for children to do. There’s a bounce pillow to jump on and a really old and rickity swing set and an old metal slide. also, there’s a pool, but that is in a state of disrepair. The concrete around Is all cracked and damaged, and one of the ladders to get out was missing, but the water was clean (most Important!). They Inflate these slides, but charge a ridiculous amount to use them. They have a snack snack shop with Ice cream. The campground itself is large, and our site was right on the river and of an ample size. We had the place to ourselves on Friday, and then Saturday they stacked people right on top of us, even though there were ample other sites to spread other campers out.. Sadly, there is trash, beer bottle caps, and broken glass everywhere. I did my best to clean up, but there was still stuff all over the place. You can bring rafts and tubes and float on the river, which looked fun.. they do not monitor nor enforce quiet hours, so we had to listen to latin music blasted until well past midnight (we finally gave up on the grounds to do their job and tell them to turn music down/off so we had to) and then they were loud/wasted drunk until the early hours of the morning.. the price was high for what was here... you would think for the cost you would get more—especially better service of the grounds (keeping it clean and keeping it at a respectable noise level during quiet hours.) Not impressed with this place. I’m sure there are better places nearby—

    White Pines Campsites

    Could have been so much better

    Upon arrival, I liked the atmosphere and friendly service but our site was filthy. A bag of dog poop by a tree, trash under the picnic table, cigarette butts littering the rocks around the fire pit, and the pit was so full of ash, there was no more room for firewood. And as other reviewers stated, these sites aren’t the cheapest. I don’t normally complain but this was unacceptable in my opinion. I called the front desk and spoke with a very lovely person. She was mortified and said she’d send maintenance. No. One. Ever. Showed. Up. We waited an hour and then we just started cleaning it up ourselves so we could move on and get started on dinner.

    Our site was T3 and it was spacious and spread out from other tent sites. There was a tiny creek meandering behind the site and the woods just went on for miles. We felt grateful to be separated from the RVers and have so much space to ourselves.

    Night fell and the place turned into Margaritaville. The seasonal RVers have really taken over the place and while some have tasteful decor and lights, others not so much. Even 50 yards away from the RV section and I felt like I was in a dance club parking lot. The music was so loud. No one seemed to care. Nothing was enforced.

    Lastly, there was a lonely port-a-potty across the road from us along with a water spigot. There was trash all around the spigot that remained there throughout our stay (an entire roll of sopping wet toilet paper and an eyelash curler, guys), but the camp sanitation truck came once a day to empty that outhouse, which I never used based on the smell. If you have young kids that nap during the day, this truck would wake them. I walked the extra .2 miles to the bathhouse, which started out immaculate but quickly turned south with the sheer number of people using it. A cleaning log claimed it was tended to but it couldn’t have been true. Trash was endlessly overflowing and soap was running low.

    The loud music I could get over for the view but the uncleanliness was just annoying. What a simple thing to fix for your customers.

    Also beware of bears. We and several other neighboring campers spied a pretty big black bear not far enough away in the late morning hours. I’m sure they are fed well.

    Copake Falls Area — Taconic State Park

    Great Place for First Timers

    I went here with two of my coworkers for a relaxing weekend getaway. I'm use to the rough and tough it of backpacking the AT Trail so this place had quite a few amenities I am not use to! Haha. We stayed at a platform tent site and were able to park two vehicles on site but the grounds had plenty of parking not too far from the sites. Each of the sites had a large platform (enough room for one very large tent or 2-3 smaller tents), a fire pit, and picnic table. You are very close to your neighbor in this area but when we were there everyone was very respectful. There was potable water a short walking distance away as well as flushing toilets. There was a very large open grassy field for play/sports, a playground and life guarded portion of the lake for swimming. This location was very accesible to the Bish Bash Falls trail and even had a few side trails to explore. This place is very good for easing on first timers and there were quite a few children so those who are parents should consider this a great place to get kids involved in the outdoors as well. There were other accommodations such as RV hook ups, events, and rentals but we weren't there long enough to take adavatage of those. Overall a great experience and relatively cheap for what you get. I believe it was around $30 for two nights which was the minimum.

    Lake Waramaug State Park Campground

    A very tired campground. Full of problems and inconsistencies.

    This campground changed in the last few years, but not for the better. It is apparent that the manager does not like campers. If you have a tent, you are treated ok, until you violate one of their endless rules. Then they have the police escort you out.. If you have a pop-up or anything above the ground on wheels they make your life miserable and prevent you from camping in the front row where the sites are larger, level, and have a lake view. Bathrooms are dirty and uncared for, toilet paper is non-existent in the afternoon. Alcohol is not allowed but is poorly enforced. Quiet hours are not enforced. Two cars per site is not enforced. Loud Boomboxes are the norm. People using the lakeside state park walk through your campsite to go use the campground bathroom and showers - hence the toilet paper issue in the bathroom. Unfortunately, some of those day picnickers think your stuff is free for the taking. NEVER LEAVE YOUR STUFF UNGUARDED. The numerous skunks are an unwelcomed camp amenity. Watch your children, cars go racing through the campground! If you are looking for stress free and peaceful, this is not the place. It is party central on the weekends.The staff leaves at random times, either 3 pm, 5 pm or 9 pm and then you are on your own. But don't worry, there is a sometimes functioning emergency phone outside the camp office. Oh yes, and there is no cell service in that area. Have fun. But I'm not going back. Are you sure you want to camp here?


Guide to Stormville

Glamping in Stormville, New York occurs within the Hudson Valley region, where elevations range from 200 to 1,600 feet above sea level. The area experiences distinct seasonal changes with summer temperatures averaging 75-85°F during peak camping months from June through September. Several campgrounds near Stormville offer year-round access with varying amenities depending on seasonal conditions.

What to do

Swimming and water activities: Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground offers multiple swimming areas including a dedicated shallow section. "The lake is beautiful and clean. Expect to pay $15 fee to use your paddleboards/kayaks etc. Worth every penny," notes camper Mellisa T. Late night stargazing over the calm lake waters provides an excellent activity due to low light pollution.

Hiking nearby trails: Taconic State Park provides immediate access to trails that cross state boundaries. "There are plenty of hiking trails nearby and of course, trails to Bash Bish Falls which is beautiful," reports Jackie G. The park's location makes it a convenient base for exploring the Taconic Mountain range with trails ranging from beginner to advanced difficulty levels.

Organized activities for kids: Jellystone Park Gardiner schedules regular entertainment for families. "This campground is great for kids. It has events just about every weekend with kid activity," says Jennifer I. Activities typically run more frequently on weekends with special themed events during summer holidays.

Farm exploration: While staying at Lone Oak Campsites, visitors can explore neighboring agricultural operations. "We did an interesting tour of the neighboring farm where they make cow pots," reports Jean T. These educational opportunities provide insight into regional farming practices and sustainable operations particular to the Hudson Valley.

What campers like

Private outdoor space: Thousand Trails Rondout Valley offers sites with natural features and water access. "Our site was up front and we didn't venture into the park. We had one and a babbling brook was 30 feet behind us. Great spot for morning coffee," writes Robert M. Many campers appreciate the balance between privacy and accessibility to facilities.

Swimming areas for different ages: Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground provides separate swimming areas for various skill levels. "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," notes Amanda S. The swimming areas include both shallow sections for young children and deeper sections with docks.

Adult-specific amenities: Several campgrounds offer dedicated adult spaces. "Nice. QUIET. Great pool with beverages for the adults," reports Jody B. about Jellystone Park Gardiner. These adult areas typically operate during specific hours and provide a respite from family-oriented activities.

Platform tent sites: Taconic State Park features elevated platforms that keep tents dry during wet weather. "This was our second time coming to this campground and our second time getting dumped on by the rain, but have no fear!! The platforms kept us off the ground and were helpful in setting up appropriate tarp protection," explains Rosie R. These platforms typically measure 12x12 feet, accommodating standard family tents.

What you should know

Bathroom facilities vary widely: Conditions and availability of bathroom facilities differ significantly between campgrounds. "The bathrooms needed updating and people at the tent area made a comment that it took a while to get a turn at the showers," reports Stephanie H. about Jellystone Park. Crowded weekends typically create longer wait times for facilities at most campgrounds.

Cell service limitations: Lake Waramaug State Park and other area campgrounds have limited connectivity. "There is no cell service in that area," advises Tom J. Many campers report needing to drive 5-10 minutes from campgrounds to obtain reliable phone signals, particularly in more remote or mountainous locations.

Varying enforcement of rules: Campgrounds implement regulations inconsistently depending on staffing and season. "Alcohol is not allowed but is poorly enforced. Quiet hours are not enforced. Two cars per site is not enforced," notes a Lake Waramaug visitor. Weekend staffing typically provides more oversight than weekday periods at most campgrounds.

Military-only access: Certain camping areas have restricted access. "Unfortunately for me, Round Pond is camping reserved for active and retired military personnel only," explains Ethan K. Both West Point FMWR Round Pond and Lake Frederick Outdoor Recreation Areas require military identification for entry and reservations.

Tips for camping with families

Choose activity-focused campgrounds: Lone Oak Campsites provides continuous programming for children. "Big fun for kids and adults. Two big pools, store, bar for adults with live entertainment. Tons of kids activities going on all day," reports Kim T. The organized activities typically operate from morning through early evening during peak season.

Consider tent platforms for weather protection: At Lake Taghkanic State Park Campground, elevated tent platforms provide advantages for family camping. "The platforms kept us off the ground and were helpful in setting up appropriate tarp protection," notes Rosie R. These platforms help keep tent interiors dry during unexpected weather changes common in the region.

Prioritize weekday visits for quieter experience: Many campgrounds become significantly busier on weekends. "I would never camp here on a weekend.... it is a party place then," advises Katrina M. about Lake Waramaug State Park. Weekday camping typically means better bathroom access, more attentive staff assistance, and quieter surroundings for families with young children.

Book sites near playgrounds strategically: Proximity to play areas affects noise levels. "We got a red carpet site by the Gaga pit and near the water park (Cindy bear lane) and it was a convenient yet noisy site. Kids were at the playground 8 am or before and the noise woke us up," reports Stephanie H. about her stay at Jellystone Park Gardiner.

Tips from RVers

Book full hookup sites early: Taconic State Park has limited electrical connections. "This is basic dry camping it is fun but there is no electric or water at the sites, only in the bathhouse," notes Amanda S. Reservations for hookup sites typically need to be made 3-6 months in advance for summer weekends.

Check power requirements before arrival: Electrical service varies between campsites even within the same campground. "Be careful on the map for what site has what amenities, and make sure to double check power requirements because it's not labeled on the sites and it varies," warns Natalie N. about Lone Oak Campsites. Some sites offer 30-amp while others provide 50-amp service.

Consider sewer connection placement: Some hookup sites present logistical challenges. "The sewer connection in 372 ran uphill for me, but my pipe sits very low," reports Inez W. about Thousand Trails Rondout Valley. RVers with low-mounted waste outlets may need extension hoses or alternate drainage solutions at certain sites.

Rent golf carts selectively: Transportation within larger campgrounds may not meet expectations. "Love it here but renting a golf cart is probably not the best option $175 for 2 days and it only goes 5mph I can walk faster than that," advises Scott about Jellystone Park Gardiner. Golf cart rentals typically require advance reservations during peak season.
