We love having chill rock climbers, hikers and families on our farm/wedding venue.  It's not a campground!  It's just a super cool place to have some privacy and a camp fire and be really close to the best hiking and climbing, and swimming holes and farmers markets and road biking around. Horse farm / Wedding venue super close to Gunx, Minnewaska State Park, Mohonk Preserve, Lipman Park (Mt biking) Great for rock climbers, families, hikers, horse folks. Sites are private with fire pits. It is $25/ person per night! Strict cancellation policy so if not sure, just book for 1 person to guaranty a space and settle up upon arrival when you know your actual plans and numbers ? So, we do weddings on some summer /fall weekends.   You camp in a totally different part of the property and are no where near the wedding activity at all.  Occasionally, the music is audible.  We do our best to let the wedding folks have their fun without irritating neighbors and campers, but feel free to check in with us before booking.Horse farm / Wedding venue super close to Gunx, Minnewaska State Park, Mohonk Preserve, Lipman Park (Mt biking) Great for rock climbers, families, hikers, horse folks.

Camping near the Shawangunk Ridge
Wally's campsites are a reasonably priced and a rare find in a pricey area just over the mountain from New Paltz, NY. Campsites are fairly open in a field setting and, as described, the road in is rutted and becomes very slippery when wet. I took the recommended "Big Bertha" site directly past the porta potties as it had been raining and this site was recommended for campers without 4-wheel drive. Wally ain't kidding. Definitely follow his advice!

Great spot to stay overnight! Wally was a great host and communicated with us about everything we needed to know. Wasn't too bad finding a spot in the dark with Wally's instructions, although you might need a flashlight/headlamp to quickly check if the spot is already occupied. Woke up to the beautiful yellow glow on the trees; such a pretty spot in the fall! Sites were well-spaced so that you didn't feel like you were right next to others, but did not feel super private, as many other sites are visible. Great place to stay for a climbing trip to the Gunks. Portable toilets could use some improvements, as my husband and I had to hold the door shut while in use, even with the latches latched, which could be a bit awkward. Other than that, no complaints!

We enjoyed the campsite and had a good time although if you arrive late on a busy weekend, anything left will be very sloped. As we were leaving we were scolded for looking for sticks for our fire in the woods near the farm store

Great time, open spaces with fire rings and close to amazing climbing! Host was easy going and we were able to arrive late with no issues.
