The 1772 Lefevre Homestead

1 site · Tent40 acres · New Paltz, NY

This property was once a working apple orchard. Over regulation made it very difficult to manage so we let it lie foul for years. Then we let a fellow farmer use it to graze his cattle. Now our children has taking it over and are raising beef cattle on the property. Our campsite lies on the beautiful two and a half century old LeFevre family farmstead with rich history and stunning views of the Shawangunk Mountain ridge. The property is on a 40-acre old apple orchard that is super private and filled with dramatic views and spectacular sunsets. Wake up in your tent to the sounds of birds chirping, roasters crowing and cows just close enough but just far enough way. On occasion there may be a person driving by to tend to the cattle.

For 10+ years we lived in New York City in a 4 bedroom apartment with 8 roommates and ONE bathroom, so moving to Narrowsburg was a huge change matched only by the huge project lists we needed to complete. Now we are so excited to share how far we’ve come and what we’ve learned so far. I have been OBSESSED with the original Woodstock and Hippie Vibes since I was 14 years old when I first performed in the musical “Hair”. This was the first step in my acting career… a journey that led to meeting Kendra in 2009 in the musical “Rent” in Charleston, SC. We were married in a big Hippie Musical Festival—themed wedding in nearby Woodbourne, NY and we continued our lives as actors. Then came “Hair” into our lives again, and we did HUNDREDS of performances across the USA and Europe. We knew that a part of us never wanted to leave the 60s, and this inspired us to “theme our cabin” to celebrate Woodstock and the Hippie Movement. CABIN INFO: It’s a small cozy cabin with a lot of Big Deck Energy! The cabin is a studio Single room just over 150 square feet. The inside of the cabin is equipped with a Queen Bed, WiFi, fans, color- changing LED lights, outlets, a coffee station, a water filter, and hot water kettle. We included a record player and a library of 60s vinyl to enjoy as well as my old Guitar and a library of books concerning local info and Woodstock. The cabin is surrounded on 3 sides by a large deck. One part has a pair of hammock chairs, the large part has a fire pit surrounded by an outdoor couch set and rocker. It also has a tall dining setup for two. The back deck is our kitchen and bathroom deck. Our bathroom consists of a composting toilet and a shower. All the flowing water to the shower and outdoor sink is collected rain water -- you cannot drink the tap water. The cabin is on the far corner of the cleared part of our land. It is “semi-private”, meaning that while we live on the property, we will leave you to your vacation unless you need us for something-or if you would like to share a moment we'd be delighted. We have ten acres for you to wander. Our woods are inviting and easy to explore. The perimeter is marked with pink flags-PLEASE PLEASE wear high visibility on both your body and your pet's during fall's hunting season. A spring-fed pond makes for lovely reflection, and the seasonal frog song in the evenings is pure magic. The nights are incredibly starry and brilliant. We are located very rurally with almost no neighbors in sight from our property (they are there though so please keep the music down after 10 p.m.) If you are after relaxation, we have installed a salt water hot tub and a wood burning sauna (sauna is an additional fee). Hot tub is equipped with an outdoor surround-sound entertainment system ideal for watching concerts or shows!). As a general rule of thumb, most hot tub sessions should last between 15 and 45 minutes. While soaking, we recommend taking breaks, Hydrating, resting, and then entering the spa again. Please keep all hot tub sessions to a "Reasonable Length and Time". Since moving up here, my wife has become an incredible farmer. Two of the most prominent features on our land are our large greenhouse and garden. Tours of these are possible when wife and I are available-and in season vegetable, herb, and produce purchases are possible. (Please do not tour gardens or greenhouse without one of us with you) IMPORTANT TO NOTE: *Our bathroom system setup for cabin is a hybrid rain collection/composting setup. The bathroom and shower are outdoor and rustic-please do not book if outdoor rustic bathrooms and showers are a deal breaker for you. The toilet will not flush as it is a composting non water toilet from Nature’s Head. The water that runs from the sink and the shower is Rainwater collection and not suitable for drinking or consumption. Please conserve water. *Our property isn’t suitable for bare feet. Livin-brambles, thorns, and sharp things exist here-its safer to wear shoes of some sort. *Renting a hot tub (especially a beloved hot tub!) can be real dicey. It only takes one bad apple to make a gross apple hot tub stew. Our salt water tub uses less chemicals than a chlorine tub so please Please PLEASE be VERY RESPECTFUL and please DON’T BE DISGUSTING in our tub so we can continue to rent it. Do not spill in tub, do not use glass in tub, for GODS SAKES don’t pee in the tub. If tub needs to be emptied and cleaned, we HAVE TO charge you a $400 fee-no joke-don’t be nasty. **ANOTHER HOT TUB NOTE-heating a hot tub is EXPENSIVE-please enjoy the tub for a responsible amount of time. We REQUIRE you to replace the cover when you are done using the hot tub. Forgetting to re-cover hot tub will incur a $250 fee—seriously!! It’s easy to close-please close it. *Please respect our privacy—- Do not knock on or come to our front or back door-please try messaging, or texting, Our house and back deck are off limits as is our woodshed and tool shed. The garden and greenhouse (and berry garden) are only available to visit with one of us present. We have to pay a lot for firewood to heat house in winter-we have additional wood available to purchase. Please do NOT help yourself. *EVERYTHING on property is “use at your own risk”. Please be careful around trampoline and all water activity. *Please be mindful when building fires-keep fire size manageable *PETS* we are 100% pet friendly but please keep two things in mind: -TAJ! Our goldendoodle Taj is a real sweet beast and he rules the roost, free ranging during the days. If your pet doesn’t play well with others, let us know and we can work something out. —-WILD BEASTS-we get ALL OF THEM-I strongly recommend keeping your pet on a long leash during evening and at night —Here at Hippie Havens we love nature-and we have a lot of it. This property has insects, frogs, snakes, bear, ticks, skunks, mosquitos, and other woodland animals found outside in the Catskills as well as hazardous indigenous plants like poison ivy. The bathrooms are outdoors and rustic. —cabin doesn’t lock-we live in a VERY safe area but we recommend leaving anything you want locked up in your locked vehicle. — Features like bugs, the composting toilet, and the cabin’s rustic nature are fully disclosed in our listing. As such, we do not offer refunds for any conditions mentioned in the property description. By booking this lodging/camping, you agree to save and hold harmless Hippie Havens LLC, and Brett Travis and Kendra Payne from any liability arising out of your stay. You acknowledge that there are natural hazards such as uneven surfaces, bodies of water, wildfire, wildlife and noxious plants that are beyond the control of the owner, and their are manmade hazards such as the hot tub and sauna, trampoline, hammocks and buildings, and you assume all responsibility for your own safety.

This property was once a working apple orchard. Over regulation made it very difficult to manage so we let it lie foul for years. Then we let a fellow farmer use it to graze his cattle. Now our children has taking it over and are raising beef cattle on the property. Our campsite lies on the beautiful two and a half century old LeFevre family farmstead with rich history and stunning views of the Shawangunk Mountain ridge. The property is on a 40-acre old apple orchard that is super private and filled with dramatic views and spectacular sunsets. Wake up in your tent to the sounds of birds chirping, roasters crowing and cows just close enough but just far enough way. On occasion there may be a person driving by to tend to the cattle.

Welcome to Clearing Farm! Our grounds expand over 100 acres with many private hiking trails, a big field and cascading waterfalls. Visit our Instagram @clearingfarm to find out more. Please note while our cabin is a premium experience on a working farm, it is still an outdoor experience that takes place deep in the woods, off the grid and in a cabin built from earthy or recycled materials. It is a far cry from a typical hotel or traditional glamping. This Clearing Farm off-grid cabin is located on our 100+ acre farm. You'll be staying right next to a waterfall and able to enjoy all our land features. Experience a private campsite equipped with a Casper Full Mattress, fire pit and charcoal grill. Please note there is 1 bed at the property but room next to the cabin to bring and put up additional tents. THERE IS NO LONGER THE WOOD BURNING STOVE IN THE CABIN - THE TOWN MADE US TAKE IT OUT.
