A tiny cabin in an enchanted forest above a sacred waterfall. Follow a small trail below a red barn silo through wildflowers and wild medicines to your forest home. Spend the day at the waterfall exploring the clay beds and looking for fossils in the 380 million year old gorge. Return to your cabin, make a fire and fall asleep under the stars listening to the waterfall and the river below. A truly magical place! This is a quiet campsite. No parties. You must bring your own sheets and blankets! Kahonrakén:ra, The White Spout Waterfall, is a world unto itself. For generations, the majestic waterfall has been a secret place revered for its spectacular and serene beauty. It is sacred to the Kanienkeha:ka, also known a the Mohawks, the original people of Skóhare, the Schoharie Valley. Coursing between two outcroppings in a deep ravine, the waterfall crashes down over mossy rock shelves into a hidden pool, which then empties again into the river, running into emerald swimming holes and through dramatic clay beds. The effect is transporting. Truly, it is one of those extraordinarily beautiful spots on earth that makes you feel like you are in another world. Out of respect and consideration for the wishes of the original people returning to their ancestral lands and rematriating their sacred sites, we do not allow alcohol or partying the campsites. There is a profound healing process happening at the waterfall. At the request of the Kaneinekehaka, we ask that you to respect the sacredness of this land. Thank you! Surrounded by 50 acres of private woodland, the cabin is about a 10 minute walk up the gorge from the waterfall. At the cabin there is a picnic table, fire pit and a campsite with three additional flat tenting areas for friends or family to join you. There is a queen bed, a single memory foam floor mattress and three pillows, but bedding is not provided. Please bring your own sheets, pillowcases and towels. There is no electricity, plumbing or wifi at the cabin. There is a private path down from your cabin and campsite down to the waterfall. It is truly amazing but the hike is quite steep, so please wear appropriate footwear. All hiking is at your own risk. This is a private site with a private path down to the waterfall and swimming holes. You will not be sharing the Forest Tiny Cabin site with others. There is a second campsite on the property that is not in view but please be aware that you may hear your camping neighbors. For this reason, we ask that you don’t play amplified music and please keep noise down after 10pm so that everyone can enjoy the peaceful sounds of the countryside. Although your path to the waterfall is private and the waterfall is on private property, there may be other guests or locals that access the waterfall further down the road. There is no glass or alcohol allowed at the falls. At the top of the path by the big red barn there is a community room with a large refrigerator, charging station, sink, coffee maker and two port-a-potties. Feel free to fill the water jug provided with drinking water from the hose and bring it to the cabin for your use. The tiny cabin is across the road from a traditional Haudenosaunee Longhouse still under construction. Search for the Waterfall Unity Alliance online to learn more about local work supporting the return of the Kanienʼkehá꞉ka (Mohawk) people to the valley and the land rematriation and healing process underway. This is a leave no trace campsite. Please take all your trash with you when you leave. And please bring your own toilet paper for the port-a-potty! Firewood is available onsite for $1 per log. Instructions for payment are at the red barn. The wood is stacked at your campsite as well as next to the red toolshed just uphill from the barn. You can also buy your own fire wood en route. The Schoharie Valley is said to be the most fertile valley east of the Mississippi. It is still wild, unspoiled country and there are many local farms with fresh produce and organic meat within 5 miles of the house. Enjoy!!!! available by phone or text. No interaction required, but you may see us around. West Fulton is a destination spot for anyone looking to reconnect with nature and spend some restorative time in the countryside. Just a few miles up West Fulton road, a small cultural and food center has developed over the years. It's a welcoming neighborhood of creative, caring human beings who have created a thriving community hub. In West Fulton you will find an arts center, 2 farm to table cafes, a 24 hour honor store providing farm fresh and gourmet items, an ashtray museum, local cidery, yoga and movement center, and more! You don't have to go far for much of anything. Just relax and enjoy! Ample parking is available. A car in needed to get around.
