Private Glamping Camp for Group Getaways in the Catskills

Rent the entire camp for unforgettable weekends with friends and family.

The Catskills have long been one of the most beloved escapes from New York City. Just a few hours from Manhattan, the region offers mountain views, forest trails, swimming holes, and quiet towns that feel worlds away from city life.

But when planning a group getaway, finding the right place to stay can be surprisingly difficult. Most cabins are designed for couples, and many glamping sites require guests to book individual tents within shared campgrounds.

For groups of friends, families, or celebrations, what many people really want is something different: a place that feels entirely their own.

At Hengarth, groups can rent a private glamping camp in the Catskills, creating a shared weekend experience built around nature, conversation, and time together.

Your Own Glamping Village for Friends, Family & Celebrations

Instead of booking separate hotel rooms or squeezing everyone into a single rental house, Hengarth offers something unique: a small glamping village designed for group stays.

The entire property is reserved for your group, allowing everyone to gather comfortably while still enjoying their own space. This makes Hengarth an ideal setting for:

• Birthday weekends

• Friend reunions

• Girls trips and group getaways

• Family gatherings

• Small celebrations and milestone trips

During the day, guests can explore the Catskills’ trails, waterfalls, and charming nearby towns. In the evenings, the experience shifts into something quieter - shared meals outdoors, conversations around the firepit, and nights under the stars.

The atmosphere is relaxed, private, and intentionally designed for groups who want to spend meaningful time together away from the city.

The Perfect Catskills Getaway for Groups (8–20 Guests)

One of the challenges of planning a group trip is finding a place that works for everyone. Hotels often separate guests into different rooms and floors, while many vacation rentals can feel crowded or limiting.

Glamping offers a different approach.

At Hengarth, groups can stay together while still enjoying the feeling of space and connection to the outdoors. The property accommodates groups of up to 20 guests, making it ideal for gatherings that are too large for a cabin but still small enough to remain intimate.A typical weekend at Hengarth might include:

• Morning coffee surrounded by mountain air

• Group hikes through nearby Catskills trails

• Long outdoor dinners together

• Fireside conversations late into the evening

• Stargazing on clear mountain nights

Because the entire camp is private, the experience feels more like your own temporary retreat in nature than a traditional accommodation.

Where Group Trips Become Campfire Weekends

The best group trips are rarely about packed itineraries. Instead, they’re about the small moments that happen naturally when people gather in the same place for a few days.

At Hengarth, the pace of the weekend slows down.Mornings might begin with quiet walks through the surrounding landscape. Afternoons are perfect for exploring nearby towns, swimming holes, or scenic drives through the Catskills. And by evening, the property becomes a place for shared meals, storytelling, and laughter around the fire.

Without the distractions of city life, the weekend takes on a rhythm that feels both simple and memorable. For many groups, the highlight of the trip isn’t any single activity—it’s simply the chance to spend time together in a place that encourages connection.

Planning a Group Weekend in the Catskills

The Catskills are one of the easiest nature escapes from New York City, making them perfect for weekend trips with friends or family. Some of the most popular activities for group getaways include:

• Hiking in Catskill Park

• Visiting waterfalls and swimming holes

• Exploring local farm stands and breweries

• Scenic drives through the mountains

• Farmers markets and small-town shopping

  
  

Because the region offers something in every season—from summer hiking to fall foliage—the Catskills remain a favorite destination for groups planning short trips away from the city. For those looking to combine nature, comfort, and time together, glamping provides a memorable alternative to traditional cabins or hotels.
