About the retreat

Namaste Catskills is a peaceful 14-acre sustainable agrisanctuary in Sullivan County, New York, about two hours from NYC. Stay in a cozy teepee or pitch your tent on a wooded hilltop, beside a fern-covered hillside or near a tranquil pond where frogs sing you to sleep.

Wander through the apple orchard, harvest fresh vegetables from the greenhouse with host guidance, or meet the goats, chickens and other farm animals in their paddocks. Ask us for a custom itinerary and we will help you experience Roscoe and Livingston Manor like a local.

Good to know: you may not be the only camper on the property, and we space the sites for privacy. Electric vehicle charging is not available. Parking is near the house and the sites are a short walk away, with a cart provided for your gear. We share the exact address after you book. Instagram: @NamasteCatskills.

Good to know before you book

Parking, gear, and a cart to help

Parking is by the house. From there it is a short walk in to your site, and we keep a cart on hand so gear does not have to be carried by hand the whole way.

Every site has campfires allowed, and access to a toilet, potable water and showers. No pets, please. We have a resident farm dog and want every camper to have a quiet, relaxed stay.

Amazing Farm Stay

We LOVED this site! To start, I absolutely adored the animals. Each one is so cute, and there was such a variety. The bull had to be my favorite! The site was super clean and had amazing amenities. A flushing toilet was a really pleasant surprise. The pond site was nice, open, and close to everything. The wooded sites give you a little more privacy or room for a group. Nick and Dylan were super responsive and so nice. We will absolutely be back and with friends this time! Would be awesome to rent all of the sites and have a friend or family weekend. Thank you so much!

An incredibly peaceful campground. I can't overstate how beautiful and calm. The animals are incredible and obviously very well cared for. My daughter loved feeding them..This was a very special place.

Great host and beautiful campsite! Could be a bit close to other campsites, but the others were empty during our stay.

Peaceful and private location

Really enjoyed my stay. I camped in my tent in the upper wooded area, and they built me a custom fire pit! The property is beautiful, the animals are friendly, the hosts were helpful. I give it 5 stars!

So cute!

This farm is so cute! The owner Nick has big dreams about the possibilities of future events and activities to offer, which I had such fun hearing about over tea and s'mores at the campfire! There was a great spot to hang a hammock near where I set up my tent, and the animals were all so friendly but also safely contained in pens so as not to bother guests. Be prepared to walk your gear to your site, as the parking is near the house and not the campsites, but it wasn't far. The ground was beautifully soft - another guest told me they hardly needed a ground pad! (I used mine anyway and did sleep great). Would absolutely recommend for a quiet weekend away, and I even found a local swimming hole to dip my feet into just a couple miles away!
