Plus a short easy hike (at least the downhill part) to a large 1/2 acre private swimming pond.
Short drive to Main Street Delhi and all that it has to offer. Such as restaurants like the Blue Bee, Hollow, Delhi Pizza Co, and the Shire Pub! This and That Antique shop. And last but not least great grocery stores Good Cheap Food (local Kimchee!) and Catskills Regional Harvest & Butcher Shop (not in the village but close and all local!) Also, close by The Bull & Garland in Hobart and Brushland Eating House in Bovina. A couple of recent additions! Smoke Joint in Delhi, The Hamden Inn, and the Hamden General Store both amazing additions to the community and both in Hamden.
Several of Catskills best farm-stands are nearby with the best local milk, meat, and veggies. Humdinger Farm Store, Bramley Mountain Farm, Bye Brook Farm, Burnett Farms, and Clark Dairy Farms (Best Chocolate Milk in New York State!)

The Space:
Secluded campsite with access to 1100 Acres of New York City Watershed land (public) and private swimming pond.
Guest Access:
This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with farmers, ranchers, and other property owners to offer unique outdoor accommodations on beautiful private land. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature! You'll have the entire campsite to yourself, as you'll be the only Campers enjoying this piece of paradise.
Each campsite includes a 10'x12' safari-style canvas tent on a raised platform, and you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed inside (each site is different, see photos for the exact setup). Larger groups can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided (you’re welcome to bring your own camping gear too). You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.
What you should bring:
-S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat
-A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling
-Bedding and pillows
-Lanterns and lighting
-Firewood for the campfire
-Water
Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property.
If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper’s property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!
Occupancy: Max occupancy refers to the total number of campers allowed at the site during your reservation. We welcome campers with larger parties, but you may need to bring extra camping gear of your own in addition to the tent that is already provided. Please plan accordingly.
Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. Line the bucket with a CleanWaste bag supplied at the camp (or another appropriate plastic bag) prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. We got this idea from bathrooms used on NASA spaceships, and we've used the Tentrr Loo countless times ourselves- don't worry!
Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.
Tentrr Extras:
These are other amenities, services, or activities that may be provided by your CampKeeper for an additional fee. Please let us know in advance if you'd like to add these to your booking so that we can process payment. Availability of any Extras are not guaranteed and must be confirmed at least 24 hours prior to check-in.
Dome Tent Set-Up$ - 40.00
We can set up the dome tent for you! Give us the word and we will make sure it is ready to use when you arrive.
Other Things to Note:
- If you run into the Bigfoot, avoid at all costs he has very bad breath!
- We love pets, but all pets should be kept leashed as we have a small Porcupine population. They are slow-moving and kind of stand-offish so please give them their space, there are 30,000 reasons to leave them be.
- The pond is home to 3 wise and mighty grass carp, disturbingly large but otherwise harmless and good for the pond ecosystem, please do not attempt to ride!
- Please note pond access is shared with the residence on the property (and the grass carp).
- Please feel free to cut and burn any blow-down branches but do not cut down anything standing. Please keep aware of any burn advisories and practice all necessary care with regard to the fire.
- Pack out what you pack in, including loo bags! Leave campsite as you found it.
- The property has a 1/3 mile winding easy-to-miss driveway, once at the top near the house, please look for the Tentrr sign on the right leading you down the pond road. There is parking behind the pond shed or you can choose to drive closer to the campsite. *Please note* driving up to the campsite will require driving through an open field, please be sure your vehicle is up to the task.
- Please be sure to store all food in the provided cooler and keep the lid on the trash can securely, help prevents uninvited four-legged guests.
- Let us know if you will need help up to the campsite, we are happy to help.
- Feel free to call/text James with any questions.
Interaction with Guests:
In the age of social distancing, isolated time can still be quality time - especially when you’re unplugged and out in nature - and we want you to know that the Tentrr team and our hosts are working together to make sure you have a safe and relaxing experience. Our hosts have been doing a great job ensuring our campsites are clean and spotless for your arrival. We ask that you do your part as well - maintain social distancing, clean up after yourselves, and leave no trace - so that everyone in our camping communities can enjoy these cherished outdoor spaces.
To limit the potential impact of community spread during the Covid-19 pandemic, we are encouraging our campers and hosts to adopt self-check in procedures whenever possible. To make self check-in easy, Tentrr provides a map to your site and driving directions in an email sent out a few days before your reservation. Please refer to this guide to get to your campsite. As a reminder, it is good practice to give your host a head's up on your estimated arrival time a few days beforehand. If you need any assistance, you can reach out to your host through the contact information provided in your confirmation email.
