2 tent pitches

Come relax on our idyllic farm in the Catskills! We have two campsites located off of the old road which is now a tree lined path. We value peace, quiet, and the great outdoors. There is little noise or light pollutions and the campsites are completely off grid. At each campsite we offer a large tent platform, covered storage for firewood, a fire pit, and a picnic table. We have shared trash and recycling, firewood, an off grid toilet/outhouse, and parking for guests as well.

Stargzing Campsite at Camp Cricket

Camp cricket was super cozy and nice and secluded. We stayed in the star gazers campsite. Great couple of chairs next to the fire pit and the tent site was great. Would highly recommend

Stargzing Campsite at Camp Cricket

Loved camping at the stargazing platform site. Great privacy and had all the things we needed - picnic table and fire pit with grate for a stove. Site was very spacious and platform made it very easy to set up our tent. Our site was a short walk from the shared bathroom and parking. There was noticeable poison ivy on the outer skirts of the walkway to the bathroom and by the firewood but easy enough to avoid. Might be a little harder if you are bringing a dog but that’s something to expect camping in the wilderness anywhere. Campsite was also great because we were close to town and the reservoir so we could leave during the day and enjoy the surroundings. Really loved the community at Olive’s Country Store and Cafe! The only issue we had was arriving around 5pm the sun is blinding and we missed the blue gate to turn into for parking, but once we turned around it was easy to find. Very grateful for the set up that was provided!!!

Serene fall camping spot

Really enjoyed the serene and beautiful environment at this site. We ran into Anna as she was checking that that the bathroom wasn't ransacked by racoons (it wasn't) and she was very kind, telling us to let her know if we needed anything. The bathroom was very luxurious compared to others I've used at similar campsites. The platform is large and we had plenty of room to set our teepee up. The provided firewood was a nice touch, just make sure to take from under the tarp otherwise the wood is damp and doesn't make for a good fire. Lots of ticks and poison ivy as previous reviews said, we used tick spray and checked ourselves a few times, throwing the buggers off and we were fine. We heard lots of neat animal noises throughout the night and went on stunning hikes in the nearby area. Cute breweries and even the world's largest kaleidoscope only 20 mins away.

Forest Campsite at Camp Cricket

Easy weekend

Everything was really well maintained and advertised exactly in the descriptions and photos. I had some trouble getting in contact with the host with a question but it was a non issue because we eventually figured out our problem. Either way, we would surely be back and invite our friends as well. Thanks for having us

Stargzing Campsite at Camp Cricket

I loved camping on Anna’s land, it was everything I needed: I haven’t seen stars that clear in a while and it was beyond refreshing, on top of that it was so so quiet and peaceful aside from nature sounds. The host was incredibly communicative and overall wonderful. Loved this experience and very grateful.
