about shady oaks
Shady Oaks Camping Resort was created with a simple goal: to offer a welcoming place where people can enjoy the outdoors and feel part of a community. We focus on creating a relaxed, friendly campground that guests look forward to returning to.
As locals to the North Country, we’re proud to share what makes this area special—from the Adirondacks to Lake Champlain—and to give more people a reason to visit, stay awhile, and come back year after year.
founded in 2024
For me, Shady Oaks is more than a business — it’s a new chapter. I never expected that this season of my life would include buying and renovating a campground, but the opportunity to move back closer to my hometown and family — and to build something near the Adirondacks — felt like the right step.
Since closing on the property, I’ve been focused on steady, practical improvements and caring for the land thoughtfully. My hope is to build something here that lasts — something that supports the community, welcomes people in, and feels worthy of this special corner of the North Country.
