Michael Dee’s Motel & Country Campsites is a family-owned and operated destination nestled on over 50 scenic acres in the heart of the Catskill Mountains. In addition to our long-standing motel, we’ve recently expanded to include a full-service campground, country-style campsites, and five cozy tiny cabins, offering something for every type of traveler.
As a true “mom and pop” business, we pride ourselves on providing a personal touch and genuine hospitality that’s hard to find in today’s fast-paced world. We don’t just treat our guests as customers—we welcome them as friends and family.
That approach is working. Both our motel and campground are enjoying record-breaking seasons, with many guests returning year after year and referring their family and friends.
With Michele at the helm for over 30 years, guests can expect exceptional service from the moment they call. Her people skills, attention to detail, and unmatched experience in reservations and bookkeeping ensure every stay runs smoothly. She firmly believes that a satisfied guest is the best form of advertising.
Once you become part of the Michael Dee’s & Country Campsites family, you’ll quickly understand why guests say you never really leave. Why would you? It’s like having a cousin in the vacation business.
