Blue Wind Nature Camp
Awesome location with many different campsites for different size groups. The host Mike had tons of animals (dogs, cats, and chickens) and we got an awesome tour with Dallas the cute young puppy. This site is great for all age groups but will be great for kids!

Blue Wind Nature Camp
Mike was a great host! He has the cutest puppy while we were there and very friendly cats and dogs. The sites were all very nice and the land was very big and fun to explore. Our dogs really enjoyed swimming in the pond and exploring the medow

Blue Wind Nature Camp
We loved the chickens and the cats, and it was nice having a real bathroom available. It was also really great having tables and chairs supplied at each site.
I wish it had been made more clear in the listing that you had to walk in to all the sites, we would have packed a bit differently. Also worth noting that the map that'd included in the photos gives the idea there is a bit more to see/do at the site than is really the case.

Blue Wind Nature Camp
Quiet, friendly, private and cool.
Mike’s land is beautiful. His sites are quiet, private, and well-organized with hand-built fire circles, handmade benches, picnic tables, grill, firewood stand. He was building a meditation garden while we were there. There are amazing trees on the property. Mike was helpful and kind and gave us good local recommendations. He has firewood by donation and wheelbarrows to cart your stuff in. Hot shower and real bathroom, an outdoor sick and kitchen if you need it.
Each site we saw had multiple tent areas all nicely away from each other. There were only two of us, but we usually camp in small groups, so this was good to see. I suspect we’ll come back with others.
The weather was very hot and humid, but our campsite was 10-15 degrees cooler due to the lovely tree canopy.
Swimming holes, rivers, lakes, parks, and hikes near by. A cute town, Livingston Manor, with a great old fashioned local supermarket, as well as restaurants and shops. Design shops, bookstores, kid’s shop with art & craft supplies, art galleries, retro used shops — good browsing to be had. Two breweries nearby. Some of the town might be called a bit “hickster”-ish, but that is to be expected in the Catskills. (One shop had a baseball hat with that word on it. lol.) There’s something for everyone to like here.

Blue Wind Nature Camp
Camping with Animals!
We enjoyed our camping trip Blue Wind Nature Camp! We chose the closest site, a short walk from the parking lot. The camp site was spacious, with plenty of room for our family’s tent and our friends’ tent. Fire pit, grill, tongs, picnic tables, and benches were all provided. The trees kept the site well shaded. The field by the lodge provided a great spot for star-gazing. The kids loved the tire swing and low ropes course, and most of all, they loved meeting the sweet dog, kitty and her kittens, and the four chickens.
