Amazing views

Hipcampers say this spot has amazing views.

It all started when grandfather Charles B Wright first establish this farm in 1904. He purchased it for its natural springs. In our barn (now home to Gardiner Brewing Company) he had gravity fed water troughs for his cattle. Since then we have slowly switched from animals to tree fruit. You will enjoy rolling hills of fruit trees and fruit gardens along with beautiful views of the Shawangunk Mountain Ridge. We have 450+ acres so it in very private. As we are a working farm, you can see us driving pass with our tractors or maintaining the orchard around your campsite on occasion. You are welcome to ride your bikes, hike or jog where you will pass ponds and a working farm landscape. Please don’t pick our fruit. If you would like to enjoy the fruits of our labor please visit our farm store open year round on the premises where we sell cheeses, our fresh picked fruit and veggies, local meats, and our famous cider donuts along with other farm products. We also have a farm brewery open 3-7 in our old dairy barn for you to enjoy. Live music Saturdays and Sundays. Minnewaska State Park and Mohonk Reserve are only 10 minutes away. The rail trail is three minutes away. This trail gives you walking and biking access into New Paltz, where there is tons of restaurants and lots of shopping. Please be aware that during the months of September and October there may be a Pick-Your-Own customer or two walking around picking apples around the campsite area between the hours of 10:00-6:00. You are also welcome to come down to the farm market and purchase bags to pick your own apples in season.

Stonehenge Campsite

Camping in an Orchard!

We really had a fantastic stay at Wrights Farm. We chose to camp at the Stonehenge area and it was perfect for our group of 6 - we towed in pop up camper and had a tent as well. Plenty of space and privacy between the campsites. Tammy was very sweet and hospitable - they had a great selection of fresh meats and vegetables and beverages at the farm stand. We ended up buying a couple of bottles of wine as well as fresh apple cider donuts and free range eggs to cook with in the morning. Didn't get a chance to check out the brewery but we will be back and hope to visit the brewery next time!

Stonehenge Campsite

The lay of the land was exceptional. Hosts were extremely flexible with us as we traveled all day, got in late, and were back the road at sunrise. Can not wait to visit again with a little more time to explore the farm!

Stonehenge Campsite

Fantastic place to camp!!

We love this place!!! Stayed at the Stonehenge twice already and will definitely be back again. It is the perfect weekend getaway with everything you need. We love the convenience of the farm stand being within walking distance of the site so we can pick up things to eat for breakfast and or lunch. Its only 15 min drive to New Paltz for dinner and drinks and 20 min from the Mohonk trail system. The scenery from the campsite in the fall is fantastic and watching the skydivers above is a bonus. Oh I forgot to mention the brewery that's on premises which is awesome with live music on the weekends. Everyone should experience this unique place

Mountain Top Campsite

Beautiful views all around, foliage was spectacular. Great staff at the farm & brewery and super easy check-in. The applewood does smell great for a fire.

Stonehenge Campsite

This is NOT a tent site!

Pros: The farmer's market, orchard, and brewery were nice touches, and the mountain top view was beautiful. The site itself is large and quiet, providing plenty of space and a peaceful atmosphere. Cons: No Water Supply: Despite the site description stating there was water available, I confirmed multiple times during my visit to the farmer’s market that there was no water supply on-site. Unfortunately, the host never responded to my inquiries via text. When I asked a lady at the farmer's market, she responded unpleasantly, implying I was unreasonable for asking for water. As campers, we expect basic amenities like water for washing hands and dishes, especially when it’s listed in the site description. We ended up driving to a nearby supermarket just to use the restroom and wash our hands. Unclear Directions and Sloped Terrain: There was no clear signage pointing to the bathrooms, and the site is on a slope, making it very difficult to set up comfortably. It’s definitely not suitable for tents, and we ended up moving around to find a spot, only to encounter ticks jumping around in the area. Note: I did bring drinking water (2 gallons), but the site description clearly mentioned a water supply, which we expected for washing and cleaning. If the description had been accurate, we would have come better prepared. Overall, this site could be a decent option if they provided clearer communication and accurate descriptions.
