    "Lindsey W. writes, "This is my new favorite spot. I had the BEST stay at Cory's tent amongst the pines. I couldn't have picked a better place to do some solo winter camping. The tent is easily accessible and is fully stocked with kitchen supplies, lanterns, and necessities. Between what I brought and what was already there, I was living quite luxuriously in the woods. The wood stove works beautifully. I stayed very warm in the tent (it was 80 degrees in there!) while the outside temps reached a low of -15 degrees. Beautiful location and excellent host. Cory made sure I had everything I needed. I already look forward to another stay here." William K writes, "The place is great. The wood stove kept the tent warm overnight. Also had plenty of firewood for 2 night weekend. Location is excellent all & the propane grill outside is a plus. Would stay again." Eric F. writes, "Cory's Camp in the Pines is awesome! My daughter and I stayed here for a few nights and loved it. The tent is great- clean, dry and large enough to walk around in freely. It's got distinct 'areas' which made it cozy- a wood stove area to sit by, a table with chairs to eat or play games at, a fully equipped kitchen area to cook at, and a sleeping area with two beds (full and twin) and some cots. Everything we needed was there, from cooking gear to utensils to cut and stacked firewood. The stove kept the interior really warm even when the tempts hit the low 30's outside. Outdoors had a nice fire pit, some chairs, a hammock, and total privacy. The outhouse was crazy clean, and even had a little LED light for those night visits. As others mentioned, you could faintly hear the highway but it quickly fades into the background and you don't think about it. Cory was an awesome, attentive, and responsive host. Finally, we were at trailheads in the High Peaks in 35 minutes. All in all, we couldn't have asked for anything more- we loved it and we'll be back! This property is the fulfillment of a life-long dream. I first was introduced to this area thirty plus years ago when I visited a nearby hunting camp. This is a place where you step into the pages of a calendar and are surrounded by peace and tranquility, yet the beautiful village of Schroon Lake is only a handful of miles away if you want to visit the public beach or local businesses. It's also surrounded by thousands of acres of state land- in fact, you can walk out of this site right onto endless chunks of public land. While this camp is off-grid and a bit rustic, it offers you an opportunity to live the dream life and experience the Adirondacks to the fullest. Learn more about this land: This camp is conveniently located right off exit 28 on I-87.  Your home away from home is a 14x17' Cabela's canvas wall tent camp on a wood platform.  You will be  situated on two acres of forest abutting thousands of acres of state land. The beautiful village of Schroon Lake and its public beach are just a few minutes drive away as well. This camp is equipped to be used all year.  You and your family will be high and dry regardless of the weather. Enjoy the ambiance of a large Vermont Castings wood stove and stay warm on the crispiest days and nights the Adirondacks has to offer. Sit out under the stars on a cool night on the front porch or next to your private campfire. Nearly everything you need is provided. The camp is even equipped with propane for cooking and lighting and we’ll provide some dry firewood. Cooking utensils are also available as well as a bunk bed/futon that doubles as a couch, and two cots.  There is also a kitchen table with 4 chairs. If you’re looking for 100% satisfaction in the Adirondacks, look no further. The only thing you’ll need is your sleeping bag, pillows., and some food. We look forward to serving you.

    Great tent in the Adirondacks
    Great hot tent on the foothills of the Adirondacks. Stepping out, there’s miles of wildness and old trails surrounding the site. Beautiful vibes. But please bring your supplies, as the only store around is a Sunoco about a 15 minute walk. Would recommend!

    Awesome August weekend
    Awesome campsite with all the amenities you need for a getaway in the Adirondacks. The futon and top bunk were very comfortable. Lots of wood and all the other essentials. I would absolutely come back

    We enjoyed our stay in the tent at the camp in the pines. He had wood for us and stayed warm even though the Arctic front moved in. There was plenty of room for our gear. He even has a wash area and camp stove to use with pots and pans. We enjoyed the secluded land. I would like to camp here again. Cory was very responsive with any questions that we had.

    Cozy hub for Adirondack Adventures
    With pets
    Cory's canvas tent set up in the Adirondacks was the perfect place for a weekend of adventure for my pup and I. The tent is well stocked, cozy, and stays plenty warm even in the winter with a full sized wood stove inside. My last night there was quite a bit of rain and not a drop came inside. The tent is situated in the forest off a private road which gives you a sense of privacy and the true feeling of being in the woods while also being convienently but not disturbingly close to the highway and a small town for amenities. Cory was a fantastic host and even gave me a call before I headed to camp in order to answer any questions I may have in addition to answering quickly to texts. The location is less than an hour away from the high peaks hikes and the drive there is stunning. Grateful Cory is able this little piece of nature with us, will certainly be staying here again in the future.

    Cory’s place was great! Nice and quiet, and central to hiking, restaurants and breweries. We had everything we needed to cook meals, and he firewood and potable water us. We had plenty of room, and stayed dry after heavy rainfall for 24 hours. It was very peaceful.
