Camp Lost Ridge

Enjoy a comfortable North Country retreat with this fully finished 16' x 24' camp on 16 wooded acres in Florence, New York. Set along a private seasonal gravel road, the property offers outstanding privacy while adjoining Big Brook State Forest and providing direct access to area snowmobile trails. The camp has a main living area with a kitchen and bathroom on the first floor. The second floor features a sleeping loft. Insulated for four seasons of use, the cabin is finished inside with warm knotty pine walls and wood flooring. A propane heater provides heat during the colder months, and a generator is used for power. Unlike many off-grid camps, this property already has a drilled well and septic system in place, making it comfortable for extended stays throughout the year. The exterior features classic board-and-batten siding, and a gravel driveway provides convenient access to the camp. The property also includes a generator shed. The surrounding 16 acres are heavily wooded, creating a private setting for hunting, hiking and enjoying the outdoors. The property adjoins Big Brook State Forest, offering access to 3,879 acres of state land for hunting and recreation. Florence is known for its abundance of public land and excellent Northern Tier deer and turkey hunting, making this an ideal location for sportsmen. In winter, direct access to the area's snowmobile trail system lets you ride right from the property, while nearby trails also provide opportunities for cross-country skiing and other winter recreation. For time on the water, Johnny Smith Pond is close by for kayaking, canoeing and trout fishing. The Salmon River is within a half-hour's drive, putting some of central New York's best-known fishing within easy reach. Whether you're looking for a family retreat, hunting camp or private place in the North Country, this finished property offers an exceptional combination of comfort, seclusion and access to thousands of acres of outdoor recreation.
