Our property was purchased and farmed by my ancestors in 1803. They cleared the meadow area of trees and rocks and established the stone wall, enclosing the area. A hemlock and pine forest at the edge of the meadow leads to our 50-acre wetland preserve which provides habitat for many bird and wildlife species. Native people also camped,hunted and trapped here in the early 1800s. Learn more about this land: Relax in a secluded meadow, wander through old Hemlock forest trails and watch many varieties of birds and other wildlife on 60 acres of wetland preserve. A very private spot with space for gatherings, tipis, tents, vans -- all are welcome. Absolutely beautiful night skies due to a lack of light pollution. Only 5 minutes away from the village, where you can pick up groceries and whatever else you need. Kids 12 and under can stay for free.

Beautiful meadow close to town
We had a great stay at Hidden Meadow! So nice to be able to camp while visiting our son at Clarkson and be close to everything. Host was very responsive and helpful. We would definitely camp here again!

We enjoyed our stay at hidden meadow. We went on a hike and our puppy loved being able to run around through the woods and the host was lovely. I would go back for sure!

This is camping on historical ground. And if you get a chance, chat with Dale and ask him about his time wrangling bison. Lots of acreage to explore.

Very chill very cool hosts
Dale and his partner are the sweetest. If you are lucky enough to meet him, ask him about his published book! Fascinating people and I will keep this in mind for future stays. Thanks!
