Tentrr Signature Site - Belle Vue Pond and River Haven

Make some memories, start family traditions! Come and enjoy our little slice of heaven, right on the Hudson River, with a 1 acre pond w/sandy beach, right outside your tent! (The spring fed pond is refilled each season and is FULL between MID TO LATE JUNE, depending on weather. Toward the end of the season (late August) it becomes more overgrown with nature, making less swimming area, but still usable.) We're on 160 acres. Included in your stay are two sit upon kayaks and beach toys available for pond play, along with 3 regular kayaks, with life jackets for river exploration. Firewood is included for your stay! Fishing in the Hudson is catch and release. Bedding and paddle boards can be ordered under "Extras" for an extra fee.

There's so much to see and do in the area! Three great ice creams places with 10 minutes!! (Ice Cream Man, Farmer's Daughter and King Dairy) Just a 15 minute drive to Saratoga Springs, NY and the famous racetrack. Also, river rafting, boating, hiking & exploring the Adirondacks or Vermont. Explore the Canal Locks just 5 miles from us. Bennington Pottery is a 45 minute drive. Museums and culture in nearby Albany. Or shop at the outlets in either Lake George or Manchester, Vt, just 45 or 60 mins. Town is a 10 minute drive for food, etc. SPAC (Saratoga Performing Arts Center) has great summer concerts!

We have a few farm animals: chickens and calves. Drive up site, unless a lot of recent rain, and then parking would be on the road, approx. 250 feet from site. (see photos) We're excited to host you!

The Space: Perfect campsite on the Hudson River, next to our spring fed swimming pond!

Guest Access: This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with farmers, ranchers, and other property owners to offer unique outdoor accommodations on beautiful private land. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature! You'll have the entire campsite to yourself, as you'll be the only Campers enjoying this piece of paradise.

Each campsite includes a 10'x12' safari-style canvas tent on a raised platform, and you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed inside (each site is different, see photos for the exact setup). Larger groups can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that___s provided (you___re welcome to bring your own camping gear too). You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.

What you should bring: -S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat -A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling -Bedding and pillows -Lanterns and lighting -Firewood for the campfire -Water

Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property.

If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper___s property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!

Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. Line the bucket with a CleanWaste bag supplied at the camp (or another appropriate plastic bag) prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. We got this idea from bathrooms used on NASA spaceships, and we've used the Tentrr Loo countless times ourselves- don't worry!

Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.

Reservation Modifications/Cancellations: Please note the terms of the cancelation policy as they are outlined in your reservation confirmation on Airbnb. Your CampKeeper is unable to change or cancel your reservation on your behalf, and they are unable to waive any cancellation fees (if applicable).

Other Things to Note: You'll want to watch and supervise children at all times with all the water closeby. The pond is approximately 5' deep at the center, and the tent site is about 100' from the river. We are about 250 feet, with a slight downward incline, from a country road with low traffic.
