Surrounded by lush forest scenery that’s reminiscent of Endor, R2 Where R U features a Star Wars theme that truly works in harmony with the landscape.
Tentrr The large planform includes two canvas safari tents, each with a queen-sized bunk bed and two pop-up tents, two picnic tables, fire pits, and iconic Adirondack chairs to soak up the rapturous lake views.
The entire site sleeps up to 16; 12 campers are included in the base rate. The design of this retreat truly respects the land, too; amenities are bare-bones but comfortable: there are two Tentrr loos (camp toilets), Coleman sun showers, portable generators, and campfire grills. Think Rebel Forward Base Camp, but in the Catskills.
Tentrr Dogs are not permitted at this accommodation, however, so leave little Chewie at home!
You’ll feel as though you’re traipsing through Dagobah as you hike through the forest around this campsite – with a backpack or child in tow, you can even pretend you’re Luke carrying Jedi Master Yoda.
