Brook Hollow Homestead A premium camping/hunting location. We strive to exceed your expectations and provide a great stay. Enjoy rustic camping on our 115 acres of upstate NY forest.

When you reserve your dates/time with us, you have exclusive rights to your location and all the extra features that Brook Hollow Homestead has to offer. We are just a short drive to Cooperstown, the Baseball Hall of Fame and the summer baseball camps as well as the other museums that it has to offer. Howe Caverns in Cobleskill is also about 30 minutes away as well. The property consists of a mixt

ure of upland hardwoods (mainly Oak, Maple and Cherry) with scattered stands of Red Pine, White Spruce, Hemlock and two open fields/pastures. There are also the occasional conifers scattered about just to keep things interesting. The majority of the property is gently sloping from the South up towards the North. The is also a nice ridge on the NE corner of the property to aid in topographic diversity. One of the fields is a seven acre hay field and the other is a five acre food plot planted in clover, chicory and other grasses. This field has also been recently planted with Apples, Pear, American Plum, Red Osier Dogwood, Persimmon, Red Mulberry, Chinese Chestnut, and Hazelnuts. These are all young at this time but will start to provide diversity and wildlife interest in the coming years. Wildlife abounds here at the homestead. Whitetail Deer and Eastern Wild Turkey are very common to see. We also have a variety of small animals as well such as Red and Grey Squirrels, Raccoons, Porcupine, Opossum, Fisher etc. For the birders, we have Barred and Great Horned Owls and Red Tailed Hawks. It is also not uncommon to see Bald Eagles soaring over the fields looking for their next meal. All of the property is easily accessible via our extensive trail system. There is also another 187 acres that borders our land that also has trails that would allow hiking. We have detailed maps so that getting lost would be the least of your worries.

This batch of hard neck garlic is the Great, Great, Grandchildren of the original garlic cloves we planted five years ago. Once you buy your first cloves, all you need to do is save the best bulbs and use them to replant that fall after the first frost of the year. It's the gift that keeps giving. So what should we make with these first? Let us know your thoughts.

While I was out brush hogging one of our fields, I had this beautiful Barred Owl watching me from our raptor pole. He was around for more than an hour and was studying the mowed area intently looking for a meal of meadow voles and mice. I was able to see him swoop down on a couple of occasions to grab a bite to eat. Habitat and wildlife management comes in many different varieties.

The harvest and processing continued today. We pulled a bunch of cucumbers and turned them into pickle slices. Green beans were harvested while the blueberries are almost ready to be incorporated into some homestead Blueberry flavored Hard Cider. Our Concord and Himr od grapes contine to grow well. They will not be ready for at least another month or so.

It was time to harvest our garlic here at the homestead. 25 bulbs are now curing and will soon be ready for winter storage. The Cucumbers are coming along and will be made into pickles soon. The peppers and green beans are also producing well. Never a dull moment here.

Our new pavilion is complete, for now at least. We do have a triangular sun shade on the way to go over the end with the pub table. For now though, we could not be happier with the new outdoor seating we have. It's a perfect spot to sit outside, rain or shine, and enjoy the pond and all we have to offer.

Not bad for a days work! We have moved the platform that supported our glamping tent down next to the pond and started the construction of a 10'Ă—12' pavilion. We just need to add the roof tomorrow and the the seating etc. Just another area to relax and enjoy everything that we have to offer. There are ALWAYS improvements underway hear at the homestead. Stay tuned for the final completion updates.

There is always something happening here at the homestead. We recently installed two new deer stands for the coming deer season. To make them even more productive, we also built and installed vine mock scrape sites and placed them 20 yards from the stands. Perfect location for our bow hunters. Will you be here to take advantage of these new hunting locations?
