This is my spot to camp. Great spot for couples, check our their Lover's Land spot. Just the sound of the creek running and being in the elements.

We tent camped here with our kids and had a great time. Good sites, many amenities (wifi in my tent?!) and lots to keep the kids occupied. They liked exploring all the fun zones. We used the location as a jumping off point to day hike North South Lake and Kaaterskill
Rip Van Winkle Campground was started by Elton & Kay Johnson who were dedicated to their country, their community, and most of all their family. A lot has changed since 1966. What hasn’t changed is that the campground is still owned and operated by the same family and we are as dedicated to the same ideals, to each other and to you as Elton and Kay were.
