About this property

Wilderness Escape: Entire Adirondack Campground

| THE CAMPGROUND |

Tucked in the backwoods of the Adirondacks, down a private dirt road, you will find five cabins nestled together on 56 private acres located in the towns of Russell and Clare, New York.

You will have private access to half a mile of the Grass River! On most days you can hear the roar of the river from the camp! Bring your fly fishing or spinning reel rods, picnic or just relax on the shoreline! There is a huge field next to the cabins, perfect for setting up tents. There is a nearby pond and private trails to walk and explore, bring your toys - Bike, ATV/snowmobile, snowshoe or XC ski and explore with family and friends!

This is the perfect four seasons campground for outdoor enthusiasts!

| THE CABINS |

Four individual small log cabins spread out in a row, underneath a canopy of beautiful pine trees. Each cabin comes equipped with power, WIFI, TVs, kitchenettes (refrigerators, coffee mskers and microwaves), screened-in porches, AC units and outdoor water hookups. They each comfortably sleep between 2-3 adults. Heat is electric during colder months.

*The smaller cabins do not have running water or bathrooms. Water pumps are available outside each cabin, meant for bringing in your own water. A bathhouse with separate men’s and women’s bathrooms and showers is a short walk from these cabins.

A little further down the road is a single story log cabin. This home is equipped with a living room, full kitchen (refrigerator, stove and dishwasher), three bedrooms, closets and two full bathrooms with two stand up showers abd one large bathtub.

*Please note although the cabins are outfitted with modern amenities, they still have a rustic camp-like feel*

| THE BATH HOUSE |

Across from the four smaller cabins is a bath house, featuring a men's and women's side. Each side has two bathroom stalls, one stand up shower and double sinks.

| THE GRASS RIVER |

The Grass River is a 73 mile-long river, mainly flowing northeast from the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains into the St. Lawrence Valley. Stocked with brown trout, native brook trout, smallmouth bass and rock bass are also popular to anglers.
