The beautiful Willowemoc is one of the finest trout streams in the Northeast.
Our peaceful campground has a "Mile of River Frontage" along the Willowemoc. You can fish right from your site, by the bridge or anywhere along the edge of the river.
Upstream you can walk for miles, there's no posted land. Downstream you can go for about another 1/2 mile past our property until you reach posted land. The river is stocked with Brown and Rainbow Trout plus there are native Brook Trout.

About the Willowemoc
The Willowemoc is renowned as a world class trout fishery. The headwaters the Willowemoc are located upstream of the campground. Ideal for brook trout and abundant with wild native fish. Downstream, the Willowemoc supports a wild population of brook and brown trout. It is stocked several times a year.
Downstream from Livingston Manor to Roscoe, all the water in this stretch is open to the public. The lower Willowemoc offers excellent pools and riffles, numerous and deep enough to hold large trout. A no-kill section is east of Roscoe. The Willowemoc runs into the Beaverkill river at Junction Pool.
