Firewood

We would prefer you not bring firewood into the campground due to the vast destruction of our trees occurring in the past due to invasive species. We have firewood available for purchase for a very reasonable price.

  • If you do bring firewood, Hide-a-Way Campsites follows DEC rules regarding the transportation of firewood. Firewood can only be brought into the campground if it originates within a 50-mile radius of the campground and you are not crossing any state lines. If purchasing and transporting untreated firewood, it must have a receipt or label that identifies the firewood source, and it must say “New York Approved Heat-Treated Firewood/Pest Free”.
  • You must have a DEC “Self-Issued Certificate of Origin” filled out prior to your arrival. “Self-Issued Certificate of Origin” is available on the DEC website: https://dec.ny.gov/nature/animals-fish-plants/invasive-species/terrestrial/firewood
  • Any firewood brought in which is not within the above guidelines shall be removed immediately from the campground.
  • Campfires must be extinguished before leaving your site or before returning to your camper for the night.
  • Please do not leave trash in your fire ring when you are not at your site, as the wind will blow it about the campground.
