This glamping site was exactly as described! Me and my pup had a wonderful stay right on the water. The heater surprisingly kept us cozy and warm through the night and we were provided with everything we needed for a restful stay — including extra blankets, towels, basic toiletries and a small coffee maker.

Stunning Location with perfect setup

This cute spot had everything you'd possibly need! My husband and I loved waking up to an incredible view of the creek and the sounds of nature, no better way to start the day! The creek is large and we highly recommend using the kayaks provided by the hosts. Outdoor shower was very energizing before of after a long day of exploring the area. Hosts were very communicative and we will definitely return many times.

Just what we needed!

After the craziness of this past year, we need a place to recharge and be together. This was the perfect spot. The site itself was magical, especially at night with the floating lanterns. There was a crazy thunderstorm while we were there, but we were safe and dry I n the cozy bed of our tent. We enjoyed the tubes and kayaks. The creek was calm and peaceful. William and Alexandra were wonderful hosts. We used their recommendations to go hiking and dinner.

Eaten Alive.

Property was cute and private, however the severe infestation of biting flies was unbearable. Our whole body was bitten up and the extreme itch and pain made the whole weekend unpleasant. I wish it was communicated to us that this was an issue. Bring bug spray by the gallon.

This is the worst review we’ve received since setting up Hudson Cove for something that we have no control over. Not to mention that EVERY other guest that has stayed has never mentioned any issue since they are probably knowledgeable enough to understand that if you are outside camping, there will be bugs! We are extremely proud of our little oasis with a 4.98 rating from over 70 reviews! It’s a shame that travelers that are new to the camping experience, don’t know what they’re getting into and give an unfair bad review. Every Camping site in much of the country will deal with everything that nature brings…including mosquitoes, spiders, etc. that unfortunately cannot and will not be controlled. Luckily our other guests are saying “ Getting out on the lake in the available kayaks and tubes was pure relaxation!!! The hammock was a HUGE favorite.” “Loved all the amenities: fire pit, hammock, kayaks, outdoor shower.” “Their little gem was perfect for a romantic weekend and proposal on the deck overlooking the water! Have been raving about it since before we even left!” And those are just a few from the guests right before you. We’re sorry that camping was not your thing! Better luck with your future getaways.

Riverway Getaway

The property was well maintained and the host was responsive and timely. I arrived after dark and the directions were clear and easy to follow. When I told the host I would be arriving late they turned on the heater so the tent would be warm upon my arrival. The host includes so many great items from a cooler, tables and chairs on the deck, hammock, floats for the river, umbrellas, fire starters, etc. One thing to know is that a train track is on the other side of the river and the train goes by early in the morning. It did not wake me up, but if you are a light sleeper it might be an issue. I would definitely rent this tent again!

This is a tricky one to review. The place itself is great. Fantastic view over the creek and well thought out facilities. We loved sitting on the deck in the morning sun and by the fire pit at night. The bed was also super comfy and the heater in the tent worked well as nights were chilly.The problem for us was that the property description says a freight train ‘runs from time to time’ and the property may not be suitable for those sensitive to noise. This is not accurate. Each night of our 2 night stay we were woken at least 5 times between 2am and 7am (the train passed in the evening also but we were out for most of the days) . You don’t need to be sensitive to noise for this to have happened as it was just the other side of the creek and accompanied by lots of very loud hooting of the horn and as they are so long this lasted for several minutes each time. If you normally live next to a freight train line this might not bother you but it certainly did for us. We do not feel that the description reflects this and probably would not have chosen to stay if we had known this. It is a shame because the facilities are great and the location picturesque but it is definitely not the peaceful haven it is made out to be. In addition there is the constant hum of traffic from the interstate that can be heard. This isn’t so bad but again it is there so you should bear this in mind.Our other issue was that the shower never ran hotter than lukewarm no matter how long we ran it for.

Perfect Getaway!

We had a great time at Hudson Cove! It was the perfect marriage of a nature getaway with adorable small town exploring. We enjoyed the provided kayaks daily, had morning stretch sessions on the beautiful deck, spent a touristy afternoon in Woodstock, and got to snuggle up with our pup at the end of the night surrounded by the sounds of the great outdoors. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to take a breather from the hustle and bustle of life.

Perfection

This was better than advertised. The site was beautifully maintained and the renters were quick to respond with any questions. The beauty was beyond expectations and no, it was not buggy. Thank you!
