    Learn more about this land: The Sweet Life Animal Ranch & Rescue sits in beautiful Dimmock Hollow surrounded by fields, forests and creeks and is an exceptional, absolutely tranquil and peaceful spot. Park your RV next to the animal pastures or pitch your tent anywhere across the 200ac property, up on the hill with views, next to the creek or wherever your heart desires. Dry camping only as of right now but we are planning tiny cabins with an outdoor shower and composting toilet in the near future. The Rescue has horses, donkeys, mules, cats and dogs and the Ranch has goats and Scottish Highland cows so you have plenty of opportunity to get your animal fix. The Butternuts Valley is a magic area with friendly people, unspoiled nature and lots of outdoor opportunities like hiking, biking, riding, fishing, taking the canoe down the Butternuts creek, enjoying the many historic villages and towns, the Baseball Hall of Fame and Farmers Museum in Cooperstown, the Historic Car Museum in Norwich to name only a few. Gilbertsville has a fantastic bakery with the best pastries and artisan breads, Just outside Morris is a wonderful Amish farm market. Morris has a great ice cream shop open during the summer months.The Sweet Life Animal Ranch & Rescue sits in beautiful Dimmock Hollow surrounded by fields, forests and creeks and is an exceptional, absolutely tranquil and peaceful spot.

    It was a peaceful night and the surrounding area is beautiful. Very conveniently located near Morris. Judith was super hospitable and a pleasant host. We were treated each time we arrived by her rescue dogs which we loved

    Thank you Judith!

    What a peaceful, beautiful place! Judith greeted us upon arrival with eggs that were still warm from the chickens! Our kids loved it. Judith is kind, caring and welcoming. We walked the property with her and the dogs while seeing the many animals she has. The landscape is gorgeous and the horses were happy to see us! Would definitely recommend for anyone looking to camp in a quiet lovely area.

    Scottish Highland Cows!!
    6 m campervan · With pets
    We loved our stay at The Sweet Life Animal Ranch! The property is right along the road, and we had no issues finding where to go. When we arrived, our host greeted us and showed us to our campsite, which was right alongside one of the pastures. There were Scottish Highland cows, donkeys, and horses. We never thought we would see Highland cows here in New York. Our host was super friendly and told us about a bakery down the road that's voted the best bakery in this part of the state. Something to know is we did not have any cell signal for AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon during our stay.
