Thanks for a great season! We look forward to welcoming campers back in spring 2025. Relax in a secluded, comfortable tent while enjoying the music of the frogs. The land is a mix of cleared and wooded areas with a half acre pond. In the spring the pond comes alive with the singing of frogs and the blinking of fireflies. Enjoy a campfire in the evening and a brilliant display of stars. The pond is nice for swimming or paddling. We provide a kayak or just sit on the dock or relax in the hammock. The village of Callicoon is a ten minute drive with great restaurants, a brewery, distillery, wine bar, grocery store, vintage shops, live music and a wonderful farmers market on the weekend. From town, you can also book a canoe trip on the Delaware River. Bethel Woods Center for the Arts is a 15 minute drive for great concerts and an interesting museum. There will be a list in the tent with suggested activities in the surrounding area if you choose to go exploring. We provide kindling, firewood, bedding, fresh eggs from our chickens and brownies from our kitchen. There is a small cupboard attached to the picnic table with everything you will need for meals on the campfire. A cooler is provided, please bring your own ice. There will be 2 large jugs of water at the site and additional water at the handwashing station on the back side of the outhouse. The site offers total privacy. Parking is within a couple minutes walk to the site and there will be a cart to help you transport your gear. We are a couple of longtime residents of this beautiful piece of the planet and we look forward to sharing it with you.The tent is nestled in the trees in front of the pond. There is a short trail to the left of the tent that leads to the outhouse and there is a handwashing station there with fresh water on the backside of the outhouse. More water is at the tent and also available up by the house. There is a fire pit and a covered stack of firewood beside it. Kindling is in the tent. The picnic table has a cupboard with basic cooking supplies, cast iron pan, pots, grilling tools, French press, tea kettle, plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery etc. we can provide a kayak for paddling on the pond. The site is about an acre, peaceful and quiet.

Everything was great! From the eggs & brownies Ginny provided to all the amenities - extra blankets, cooking utensils, etc. Although the description is very accurate, the camp far exceeded our expectations. It was so peaceful and serene. When planning my next camping trip, I will definitely be checking to see if Frog Pond is available

20/10 Stay

My dog and I’d stay at Frog Pond was dreamy, frictionless, and safe. Can’t stop gushing about our weekend away. The site was remote enough that we felt secluded, but as a female solo camper, I knew I was close enough to folks if something went wrong. We just brought ourselves and some food to cook, it couldn’t have been easier. Plus - NO CELL SERVICE FTW!

With pets

This campsite is so beautiful, especially during sunset when you can see the reflections in the pond. It's quiet and we had the place to ourselves. Ginny even left a bottle of wine for us. This is a gem and we can't wait to come back.

Relax with the Frogs

Frog pond exceeds expectations. A symphony of frog songs, and a light show of fireflies under clear starry skies made for a beautiful summer camping experience! There were spots of shade to relax in while kayaking and enjoy many signs of a super healthy pond - including red-spotted newts. Our host Ginny was very welcoming and communicative, and had the site well kitted out with anything we might need. Main Street Callicoon is a mere minutes away. We would definitely recommend this spot to friends and hope to stay in this peaceful place again.
