The Upper Shire Private Campsites in the Hudson Valley are on a gorgeous hill with a small pond surrounded by 22 acres of an old horse ranch. Located in Columbia County near the border of Massachusetts and New York. There are currently 5 unique camping areas located here. Each one is special due to its location on the hill. Check out our map and enjoy our spacious yet secluded campsites. This place comes with a relaxed atmosphere and is located near Catamount Ski Resort, Bash Bish Falls, Taconic State Park, Hudson NY, and Great Barrington, MA. If you plan on bringing a pet please be sure to add that fee to your booking under "extras" ($25) If you have additional guest(s) that would like to join you that fee is ($25 a night per person) and you will need to message us about how to arrange that. We have extra easy pop-up two person tents are available to rent ($15 for two nights) you can also find that option under "extras" along with bundles of firewood ($15)

Upper Shire Meadow
We had a great experience. The site was clean and well-kept with a nice fire pit and chairs, hammocks and a clean porta-potty. The hosts brought us fire wood, water and an air pump to blow up an air mattress. They were responsive, friendly and communicative. Lots of privacy and room for tents! The site was so clean tho we had trouble finding sticks for building a fire and ended up gathering wood off-site along a nearby road. (Not from too far away tho, so we wouldn’t unwittingly bring unwanted insects.) We could hear traffic during the day/evening from a nearby road, but it wasn’t too overwhelming and we were delighted to hear so many different types of birds in the morning. Thanks for a lovely stay! 💛

A private retreat in the Berkshires
I was absolutely blown away by my experience at Joanna's land. She met me on arrival, helped me park my camper, and gave me many tips about the land. She was warm, welcoming, and friendly. I typically try to avoid Hipcamps where there may be multiple guests, but I felt absolutely isolated. The setup of each site gave everyone privacy, and I couldn't have been happier. There were so many thoughtful small touches from signs to cleared trails to solar-powered string lights that just made the stay even more special. I'll definitely be returning!

1987 Airstream at Tin Can Valley
A relaxing Memorial Day weekend.
Our family of four loved this place. The space was huge and private. The Airstream housed us four comfortably. Did a little canoeing in the pond. Enjoyed the campfire and the hammocks. Will definitely be back. The shower house in construction now will be a big plus!

Pine Grove Bell Tent
Great spot with wonderful people
We went with our puppy and had a fantastic time in the Bell tent. The tent was roomy and a lantern & power bank was included. Joanna even provided an air mattress for us which had a built in air pump for ease of use. Water & wood was provided and the fire pit with chairs was great. The grounds were great to explore and check out. Would highly recommend this to others! Very excited to see how they add to the camping experience for years to come!
