What a great park!! Had a small issue when arriving but lt was handled perfectly. Had the best customer service anamarore or something close to that horrible with names. Was only here 1 hour and went and got added to the seasons Site List. The amazing women you put my husband on the list was awesome !!!

I'm doing a favor for a friend and driving a 30 foot travel trailer rv across NY. I was on windy, narrow roads through the catskills all afternoon and my drive took much longer than expected (I don't normally drive trailers, I have a small car). I arrived to the campground a friend recommended at around 830pm and there was no way it would work. The sites were too small. Once I was down the long road at the campsite, there was nowhere to turn the trailer around so I headed towards Phoenicia. There was no service the entire drive, but I got one bar and saw Sleepy Hollow campground was about 15 minutes away. It was the only rv park in the area. It looked large and spacious on Google Maps, and by the time I got there, it was 1030pm. I drove around to the back office, seeing half of the rv park and saw tons of open space and some open sites! Yay! When I got to the office, I saw quiet hours didn't start until 11 (thank goodness, my friend's trailer is a little squeaky on dirty roads), and that I was supposed to go around to the greenhouse for check in. As I rounded the office building in the dark, I was greeted with a super bright flashlight right in my eyes and no words. The light just kept approaching me and I said while backing away, "Hello? You scared me!" and a man responded aggressively, "What the hell do you think you're doing" I gasped and continued to retreat while pointing behind me. Mind you, I am a small 5'6 woman alone in a pink shirt and there is a 30ft long 9ft wide travel trailer parked directly behind me. I feel like it was obvious what my goals were...? After continuing to shield my face from the bright flashlight and backing away from the threatening man I couldn't see, I started to explain my situation and told him I was alone and not used to driving big RVs, especially at night. I asked if I could pay for a site and I'd be out first thing in the morning. He didn't care at all, just said no. I said I didn't need hook-ups, just a place to park. He said nothing. I asked if he knew of any other campgrounds or rv parks and he said there was a parking area on the side of the road by the railroad tracks. I asked him if it was safe and he said rudely, "I don't know, there's stuff parked there sometimes." [I went and checked it out, it's on the side of the highway and there is no one else there, no lights, no buildings, no phone service to call 911 if something happens, pretty sketchy] I reiterated I was alone and nervous and not used to the RV and he was silent. I waited another second, no response, and I started to walk back to my friend's truck, fumbling with the keys (because they're not mine and I couldn't find the unlock button). I looked back at him again, and he didn't say a word. Just stood there staring at me. It was one of the rudest, shortest, and coldest interactions I've ever had with someone. As I drove slowly through the other half of the campground, towards the exit, I saw so many places to park I couldn't count. Just near the exit, there were at least 3 or 4 open sites, and a long extra wide dirt road that several campers could have fit on. This miserable and scary man turned me away simply because he felt like it. Not only did he not care about another human's safety, specifically a woman alone at night, but he also was aggressive, ill-mannered, and nasty. Beware, and don't go hear looking for refuge or a friendly face.

I rented a site on the river at sleepy hollow camp site for Tues-Fri and it provided an amazing respite from cabin fever. It is by far the cleanest and most peaceful campsite I've ever stayed at. Wyatt was a lovely host and even helped me hook up my trailer on my way out. It was a lovely week of writing, dips in the river and take-out from phonecia diner. Also, unlike most campgrounds, these guys have made a significant investment in their wifi systems and have very fast service...registered 30mbs on my speed test. I highly recommend!

Conveniently located just outside of town, this grassy site is quiet and peaceful. There's a busy, dusty site in town if that is your thing, but for a more relaxing time, this is the place. The site is mostly RV-centric but there are several places for the tent camper to pitch.
