The Upper Shire at Roe Jan Ranch is a gorgeous hill with a small pond on 22 acres in Columbia County in Hillsdale, NY close to the border of Massachusetts. There are currently 3 unique camping areas located here. Each one is special due to its location on the hill. Check out our map and enjoy our spacious campsites.
My camp site changed twice before leaving their office. Second site was nice grass covered and even had a grill built in anf walking heck rock throwing distance from the showers and bathroom. However we left after finding our site to eat and when arriving back from dinner we were told we were moved from that site to another one that had no grill shower house was a half mile away and was graveled lot that put holes in my tent and has my back hurting. Probably won't recommend.
I've enjoyed camping at Fox Hill for many years, however this is the first time I camped with my two young boys and wife. We rented a 36 ft trailer on the main pond and loved every minute. The camper had plenty of space for two young children and two adults. The grounds were clean and well maintained.
This place is a very nice quiet place by a large pond for chilling with a great barbeque going and fresh air, love it,
I’ve camped here many years. Started as a weekender then transitioned to seasonal. So many wonderful cherished memories and friendships I still hold dear. Life changed course for me, so I’m no longer a camper there, but do still visit from time to time. It’s extremely peaceful. If you are family camping and are looking for a place for your children to get back to nature and don’t expect an adult or staff to hold their hand every minute with an organized activity, THIS IS YOUR PLACE! If you want your children to REALLY CAMP and not be distracted with activities and to make life long friendships, THIS IS THE PLACE. If you have no children, I promise, you will not be infiltrated with brats! The parents who come to this campground are awesome! They know where their children are. The kids are respectful; but let’s be honest- kids are kids, and when one does step out of line, the parents ALWAYS handle it immediately and it’s been my experience it’s followed up with a face to face apology and it’s usually the last time it happens; and it’s RARE! Also pets are welcome! Just gotta have papers and on leash. Owners are stellar (Guy and Patty ❤️ and their entire family). They know EVERYTHING that goes on and keep everyone in check. Side note: you MORE THAN LIKELY at some point may see a bear if you’re lucky!
Don’t pass this beautiful destination up! Way too many memories to be missed out on! You won’t be sorry!!
