AutoCamp Catskills opened its doors today, providing a serene yet modern hideaway within the forests of Upstate New York. The campground is AutoCamp’s second East Coast location and brings stylish glamping offerings to the scene with luxury tents, cabins, X suites, and Airstreams. Each with a memory foam king-sized bed to lead glampers into a deep slumber, Autocamp Catskill’s luxury tents are spacious, custom-made canvas tents. The outdoor accommodation option can sleep up to two adults and two children. Another offering is the Vista Cabin Suites which can sleep up to five guests. Each restored pine cabin has a porch with a swing where guests can enjoy the crisp morning air. There is also a queen bed, two bunk beds, and a sofa bed. Ideal for
vacationers seeking a home away from home, the Vista Cabin Suites come with a full kitchen, small dining area, and private bathroom. The suites are a holidaymaker’s holiday-maker. Available as premium or vista suites, these offerings are set in the middle of teeming trees. The chic accommodations each have a private bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, and living area. A queen memory foam mattress, wardrobe, and picture window over the bed to take in the views are found in the bedroom. The living room comes complete with flat-screen TV and sofa, which folds out into a soft double bed, while the spa-inspired bathroom features a walk-in shower. A timeless classic, Airstreams are available to book at AutoCamp Catskills. Guests can choose
from Classic, Premium, or Vista Airstreams according to their needs. Inside each 31-foot rig, vacationers are greeted by the bright and airy interior, a queen bed, kitchenette, and a private bathroom with a rain shower. Glamping is not glamping without some elements of camping—AutoCamp did not forget to provide fire pits and grills for s’mores and stories by the fireside. Furthermore, a modish Hudson Valley barnstyle clubhouse can be found sitting on the property, where guests can pass some time during their stay. There is also a hammock grove where glampers can unwind as well as gathering spaces among the trees for truly plugging into nature. Nearby, visitors can immerse themselves in the area’s culture by visiting the historic towns of Woodstock or Saugerties. With so much of the great outdoors to offer, outdoor recreation is abundant, and campers can choose from a dozen trails to hike on throughout the Catskill Mountains. Once a white blanket of snow covers the region, they can ski or snowshoe on Hunter Mountain. AutoCamp Catskills opened today, and in a LinkedIn post, the company’s COO Anjali Agarwal invited campers to stay. “So proud of the entire AutoCamp team for opening Autocamp Catskills today! NYC, come adventure with us!” Agarwal said.
