Summary: Camp lakeside beneath the dramatic view of the famous Shawangunk Ridge. If a quiet, tranquil getaway is what you are looking for this site is for you. This 7 acre private lake is shared with only two other homes and borders the Mohonk Preserve just 100 yards away. Access to the preserve requires a day pass if you are not already a member. (Information on hours, fees, and land use rules can be found at this link: https://www.mohonkpreserve.org/visit/hours-and-fees/) Children accompanied by their parents are welcome in addition to the 2 adult max policy. This site is ideally located to set up base camp, adventuring away from or to hang your hat and enjoy the sights and sounds without ever leaving. Access to the new Empire State Trail & Wallkill Valley Rail Trail systems is only 0.5 miles from the campsite. Heading 3 miles south on the trail will bring you to downtown New Paltz where you will find many local eateries, shopping and Historic Huguenot Street or on your way you can jump on the new River to Ridge trail that connects you to 70 miles of carriage roads and hiking/biking trails of the Mohonk Preserve. Heading North on the Empire State/WVR trail will bring you through the hamlet of Rosendale, up to Kingston, Hudson, and all the way to Canada if you choose to keep going! If staying put is your preference, the spring fed lake is stocked with large mouth bass, sunfish and other aquatic life. Boating, bathing, (the lake is 5 feet deep at its deepest), and fishing are permitted. There is a row boat for your personal use. The site is also within a few hundred feet of a 60 acre parcel of wooded land for hiking and exploring. Please inquire if interested. The Space: Enjoy a view of the Gunks as you camp lakeside. Guest Access: This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with land owners to offer unique accommodations in beautiful outdoor spaces. 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! Your Tentrr campsite includes a 10'x12' (120 square feet) safari-style canvas tent on a raised wooden platform. Inside the tent you'll find one queen bed with a memory foam mattress. The tent is big enough for the bed plus one or two extra sleeping bags on the floor. Aside from the canvas tent, campers can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided. 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. Max Occupancy: This refers to the total number of campers allowed onsite with your reservation. 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. To use, line the bucket with a CleanWaste Sani-Bag supplied at the camp prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. CleanWaste Sani-Bags use a NASA-developed gelling/deodorizing agent that helps prevent spills and keeps everyone safe and clean. 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. What You Should Bring: - Bedding/Pillows - Bug Spray - Firewood - S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat - A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling Other Things to Note: Help preserve the natural state of your site.

Interaction with Guests: Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory!
