About this property

Hudson Valley’s Waterfront Camping Getaway with electric, water and KAYAKS!

This quaint little tent and private deck are nestled among the trees on the banks of the Esopus Creek in a great little neighborhood! A way to get back to nature without truly leaving it all behind. A one of a kind private waterfront escape with warm water and electric outlets!

Enjoy a safari style tent on your own private deck overlooking the water located in a private wooded property. Rinse off under the private A-frame shower with warm water and use the NEWLY installed Porta-Potty. This porta-potty is emptied weekly and sanitized before each guest. You won’t have to dig holes but you are camping after all!!

The Camping experience does come with everything that nature has to offer! Meaning…you are outdoors and the outdoors comes with bugs, mosquitoes, flies etc. We suggest you bring bug spray for your stay!

Hungry...cook a meal on the propane grill. You are welcomed to bring aluminum trays to cook on. Charge your phones or laptops should you need to do a little work under the canopy of the trees! (Yes! There is an outlet for small devices!!!) Finally, relax under the stars on a queen sized bed in your screened in tent as the tree frogs lull you to sleep and the fireflies wow your senses with their magical glow! There is a freight train that travels across the creek from time to time. If you are sensitive to noise, this may not work for you.

Water access is now available! You will find a staircase down the bank of the creek so you can launch the kayaks provided or even fish off of them! There is a two and a half mile stretch of the Esopus Creek between two small waterfalls that is lovely to kayak on! Please note that going out on the creek is at your own risk! We also don't control the water levels as mother nature is in charge of that. We suggest you bring water shoes or old sneakers you don't mind getting wet or muddy.

Feel like exploring? Take a short walk through the beautiful neighborhood and be sure to enjoy the magnificent sunsets over the farm. We are located in a great little neighborhood so you never have to go trekking too far into nature and be totally secluded. Yet, you enjoy the half acre waterfront property all to yourself! Plenty of longer trails are easily accessible just a short drive away!

If something a little bit further from nature tickles your fancy, jump in your car for a quick ride to Uptown Kingston or Saugerties where you’ll find plenty of great restaurants and shops to visit during your stay. Either way, you're sure to enjoy!

End your day with a nice fire under the stars! You have two comfy Adirondack chairs and an enclosed fire pit for your use!! Be sure to bring enough wood as you’ll want to linger around the fire just a little while longer!!

During the cooler months, enjoy a small heater that will warm up the tent to a toasty temperature perfect for sleeping! Sweet dreams are sure to follow!

This is a tricky one to review. The place itself is great. Fantastic view over the creek and well thought out facilities. We loved sitting on the deck in the morning sun and by the fire pit at night. The bed was also super comfy and the heater in the tent worked well as nights were chilly.The problem for us was that the property description says a freight train ‘runs from time to time’ and the property may not be suitable for those sensitive to noise. This is not accurate. Each night of our 2 night stay we were woken at least 5 times between 2am and 7am (the train passed in the evening also but we were out for most of the days) . You don’t need to be sensitive to noise for this to have happened as it was just the other side of the creek and accompanied by lots of very loud hooting of the horn and as they are so long this lasted for several minutes each time. If you normally live next to a freight train line this might not bother you but it certainly did for us. We do not feel that the description reflects this and probably would not have chosen to stay if we had known this. It is a shame because the facilities are great and the location picturesque but it is definitely not the peaceful haven it is made out to be. In addition there is the constant hum of traffic from the interstate that can be heard. This isn’t so bad but again it is there so you should bear this in mind.Our other issue was that the shower never ran hotter than lukewarm no matter how long we ran it for.

Stunning Location with perfect setup

This cute spot had everything you'd possibly need! My husband and I loved waking up to an incredible view of the creek and the sounds of nature, no better way to start the day! The creek is large and we highly recommend using the kayaks provided by the hosts. Outdoor shower was very energizing before of after a long day of exploring the area. Hosts were very communicative and we will definitely return many times.

Riverway Getaway

The property was well maintained and the host was responsive and timely. I arrived after dark and the directions were clear and easy to follow. When I told the host I would be arriving late they turned on the heater so the tent would be warm upon my arrival. The host includes so many great items from a cooler, tables and chairs on the deck, hammock, floats for the river, umbrellas, fire starters, etc. One thing to know is that a train track is on the other side of the river and the train goes by early in the morning. It did not wake me up, but if you are a light sleeper it might be an issue. I would definitely rent this tent again!

Perfect Getaway!

We had a great time at Hudson Cove! It was the perfect marriage of a nature getaway with adorable small town exploring. We enjoyed the provided kayaks daily, had morning stretch sessions on the beautiful deck, spent a touristy afternoon in Woodstock, and got to snuggle up with our pup at the end of the night surrounded by the sounds of the great outdoors. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to take a breather from the hustle and bustle of life.

Eaten Alive.

Property was cute and private, however the severe infestation of biting flies was unbearable. Our whole body was bitten up and the extreme itch and pain made the whole weekend unpleasant. I wish it was communicated to us that this was an issue. Bring bug spray by the gallon.

This was better than advertised. The site was beautifully maintained and the renters were quick to respond with any questions. The beauty was beyond expectations and no, it was not buggy. Thank you!

Just what we needed!

After the craziness of this past year, we need a place to recharge and be together. This was the perfect spot. The site itself was magical, especially at night with the floating lanterns. There was a crazy thunderstorm while we were there, but we were safe and dry I n the cozy bed of our tent. We enjoyed the tubes and kayaks. The creek was calm and peaceful. William and Alexandra were wonderful hosts. We used their recommendations to go hiking and dinner.
