The Lodging Breakdown
CAMP WILD unfolds across 325 acres of forest, meadow and medicinal herb gardens at Raven Crest Botanicals in upstate New York — a holistic retreat center devoted to earth-centered practices and the healing wisdom of plants.
Mornings begin with outdoor yoga at the Dojo, birdsong drifting through the branches.
Afternoons invite you to wander abundant gardens, forage among medicinal herbs, swim in woodland ponds, or rest by the creek’s gentle cascades. Evenings gather us around the bonfire or stargaze among the trees.
You’ll stay in the cozy Mullein House, a secluded woodland cabin, or camp beneath the trees
— falling asleep to the sounds of the forest and waking to sunlight through the leaves.
This land is more than a backdrop.
It’s part of the experience.
