Notes from the host
River's Edge on the Canal 2FD0
Summary:
Camp next to the majestic Delaware River in the comfort of a fully electrified and insulated tent. The ultimate romantic getaway is available year round. Tent includes carpeted and insulated floor, wood stove, electric heater, and real 8" thick foam mattresses. Across the road is our 5 bedroom farmhouse lodge, Slumberland at the River's Edge, which can be booked separately by request if you have extra guests or family that prefer indoor living. Don't see your dates? Make contact as we have many other camp sites and mountain cabins.
Explore the local communities, shops, and restaurants, hike local trails, or relax and read on a superb deck by your campfire or wood stove. Fall, winter, and early spring are magical isolated times in the valley. Watch the river flow by and embracing a true back to nature experience. It is roughing it -- with all the amenities. In the summer, the valley transforms and becomes a jungle of vines and a steady stream of rafters comes down the river for endless entertainment. Within 10-15 minutes are the towns of Barryville, Yulan, and Eldred where you will find great spots for breakfast, lunch and dinner! Or try your hand at splitting wood and winter cooking on an open campfire.
Please note: canvas tent features a queen-size bed for 2 people. Additional tents are available upon request for extra guests. Only cell service is through Verizon and even that is not 100% reliable. Please make contact before -- if you have any questions or special needs.
The Space:
Nestled in the river valley and ready for warm weather! Our most remote site!
Guest Access:
This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with farmers, ranchers, and other property owners to offer unique outdoor accommodations on beautiful private land. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature! As a general rule, Tentrr campsites do not have access to electricity and cell service may be hard to come by. You'll have the entire campsite to yourself, as you'll be the only Campers enjoying this piece of paradise.
Each campsite includes a 10'x12' safari-style canvas tent on a raised platform, and you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed inside (each site is different, see photos for the exact setup). Larger groups can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided (you’re welcome to bring your own camping gear too). You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.
Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. Line the bucket with a CleanWaste bag supplied at the camp (or another appropriate plastic bag) prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. We got this idea from bathrooms used on NASA spaceships, and we've used the Tentrr Loo countless times ourselves- don't worry!
Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.
Other Things to Note:
Base booking is for 4 campers regardless of age and is limited to overnight paying guests only. If bringing additional people (including children), please calculate and include at time of booking or contact Campkeeper prior to arrival with final numbers. We understand that plans can change and Campkeeper is readily available to adjust your booking. NOTE: Campers coming to site with more people than registered will be charged double the normal rate for extra guests (80./night vs 40./night). No day guests are permitted without prior approval and will be treated as additional guests. Get your numbers right BEFORE arriving and stay in touch!
Bring loads of extra blankets and warm clothing. Water shoes in the warmer months. Consult your camp keeper on all details of site setup. We are here to help and make your trip perfect. Let your camp keeper know when you are arriving so we can light up entry for you. Cleanup all common spaces when you leave. But, make yourself at home.

Note for dog owners: Although well behaved dogs are welcome at all our sites, fireworks from neighboring campsites are common especially on weekends. Although these sites are a mile away, if your dog is sensitive to this kind of noise, consider a campsite that is totally remote, or one of our indoor spaces at the farmhouse ! No refunds will be given for issues that we cannot control.
Interaction with Guests:
Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property.
If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper’s property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!
Reservation Modifications/Cancellations: Please note the terms of the cancelation policy as they are outlined in your reservation confirmation on Airbnb. Your CampKeeper is unable to change or cancel your reservation on your behalf, and they are unable to waive any cancellation fees (if applicable). If you have any questions regarding your reservation, Tentrr Customer Support can be reached at (888) 798-9093 or at hello@tentrr.com.
