Best all-around: Finalist

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

Always working on improvements! My second glamping site "The Medieval Encampment", is available for booking starting April 1st of 2025. I will have more pictures soon. In April of 2024, my long awaited 1st Glamping site was available for booking. It's been very popular! Please read the description carefully of the "Gypsy Rose Vardo", to see if it's the right fit for you. I also have 10 large camping sites available on our 33 acre property located in Northwest NJ. Sites 1 through 4 are on mowed, fairly level fields and are large enough for campers or RV's up to 30ft, or a couple of tents, and sites 5 and 6 are further back in the woods, available only for a few small tents, sites 7 through 10 are much further into the property and are only accessible with a high clearance AWD or 4WD SUV or you can park and hike your gear in. There are 3 compost toilet outhouses spread out through the property, so it's an easy walking distance from any site. Although we are only 2 1/2 miles from a main highway, the last 2 miles are on a dirt road with no houses. We are surrounded by protected land, so no neighbors and lots of wildlife, including the occasional bear, coyote or raccoon. Keep all food items secured. Because we are surrounded by protected land we are not sprayed for insects, so be safe and do tick checks often and bring the bug spray. We are 45 minutes from NYC or the Delaware Water Gap and an hour away from the NJ shore. There are horse farms nearby that offer trail rides. We are also close to the Highland and Appalachian Hiking trails. There are two reservoirs within a 20-minute drive for canoeing or kayaking. There are walking trails through our property, including a ten-minute hike on a marked trail to a small waterfall in a ravine.

Site 2 - Paradise Valley Homestead

I stayed when everything was frozen and the ground covered in Snow/Ice so did not get to see much, but was greeted as soon as I pulled in and was offered any site as I was the only one camping that night. It was semi-secluded, with a great little Irish pub down the road a bit. They also have a good supply of firewood available.

Site 3 - Paradise Valley Homestead

Excellent location for its proximity to busy areas of NJ and NY. One hour drive from when I live in central NJ and had a great night camping. The grounds were taken care of and there are great short trails to walk. Even a nice stream with a small waterfall.

Camp 6 very nice

Site 6 tents only

I had camp 6. It was my first time camping. I pulled my car right up to the campsite and had a campfire from right outside my car. Was quiet and serene. I enjoyed looking at all the signs on the trees.

I stayed at camp 6. Was able to pull in with a regular size car. Stayed 2 nights. I loved walking around seeing the signs on all the trees.

Site 3 - Paradise Valley Homestead

The campsite is about 2 miles off road. Sedans, go slow! The campsites are huge. Very spacious & plenty of tree if you decide to Hammock camp. Owner Kathleen is super friendy. Shes very helpful & l will make.you feel at home. If you're thinking of Hot tenting, this place is it. Kathleen allows it. Very happy with this Campground.
