Mollie Mae, our Golden Doodle, welcomes you to stay on her quaint little chicken ranch here in apple orchard country in Peru, NY. Our property consists of 2 acres surrounded by apple orchards, strawberry, blueberry and raspberry fields, corn fields, pumpkins and more! We have segmented a portion of the property for use as a RV/Tent site, with 30A electric, water, septic hookup, fire pit and picnic table, with plenty of space for vehicles, a boat and room for kids to run around. Note there is no host-provided toilet here. Campers must provide their own. On the working orchard around us and within walking distance is a petting zoo with a horse, donkeys, llamas and goats, and a playground. Come visit in the fall and you may be able to take a wagon ride to the pumpkin patch to pick your own pumpkins, and find your way through the corn maze next door. There is also a very large country store stocked with fresh vegetables, maple syrup and other local products, gifts and souvenirs of all kinds and a bakery where you’ll find fresh donuts, pies, breads, cookies, breakfast items and so much more! Mollie Mae’s Chicken Ranch also makes a great home base location for anyone interested in venturing out to the surrounding areas. Whether it’s spending time on the beach at Ausable Point campground, golfing some of the surrounding courses, paddling or boating the waters of Lake Champlain, hiking the hundreds of trails in the Adirondack Mountains, leaf-peeping northern New York and Vermont in the fall, or visiting the Olympic Village in Lake Placid, there are so many things to see and do within a short driving distance. We are just 4.1 miles from Ausable Point campground and Lake Champlain, 4.6 miles from Ausable Chasm, 7.9 miles from Bluff Point Golf Resort, 12 miles south of Plattsburgh, 34 miles from Whiteface Mountain and 38 miles from Lake Placid. You can also take the Lake Champlain ferry from Plattsburgh and a short ride to Burlington, VT, which is about 41 miles away in total. If you want an international, metropolitan experience Montreal, Canada is only 71 miles north, but still close enough for a day trip. PLEASE NOTE OUR PET POLICY: While we do allow pets, as we have semi-free range chickens on our property and families with children who frequent the playground, petting zoo and corn maze next door, we do not allow any potentially aggressive breeds of pets including bully breeds. We ask that you share with us the breed of your pet prior to making your reservation so we can avoid any misunderstanding and unfortunate last minutes cancelations.Mollie Mae, our Golden Doodle, welcomes you to stay on her quaint little chicken ranch here in apple orchard country in Peru, NY.

Would go back again and again!

What a beautiful little piece of paradise! A sunrise that won’t soon be forgotten over the mountains. Jason was prompt to welcome us to their property which conveniently adjoins to the neighboring apple orchard which also has a petting zoo and great playground for the kids. Jason’s wife was also amazing and made us feel right at home knowing it was our first RV trip. 10 out of 10!

Great fall weekend with kids + dog

We had the best time at Jason’s site this weekend. He is a great host (very communicative and welcoming). The space was pretty flat and it was easy to set up camp. Loved the full hookups! There is a great farm next door and our kids loved walking through the orchards. We enjoyed doughnuts and cider and there is an awesome playground plus a corn maze! It’s great to have so much to do within steps from the site. Our 3 year old is obsessed with tractors so watching the John Deere farm tractors pass by the site was a fun surprise. It was very occasional and not a disruption for us. A great location - a beautiful 45min drive brought us to Whiteface and Lake Placid. We appreciated the firewood and delicious fresh eggs waiting for us when we arrived! A perfect weekend, wonderful family memories…we’d love to come back again next year!

Excellent camping experience!

Our family of 5 had an amazing time at Mollie Mae’s site. The host was kind and generous and the site itself was perfect. Great space that is flat and has huge shade trees. The fire pit has great seating. The site shares a road with Rulfs Apple Orchard and morning walks through the fruit trees was fun for all of us. Our family would highly recommend this site and we hope to return!

Great Sunset

We enjoyed our stay. We were greeted with a dozen farm fresh eggs and a beautiful grassy site. Great place to stay close to Burlington VT. Looking forward to our next visit.
