I am a co-founder of Sojourner Glamping, the company proposing an outdoor retreat on 116 acres at the intersection of Dyke and Mutton Hollow, a property that was previously planned for 29 luxury homes. We chose Greene County because of its beauty, proximity to the mountains, and easy access from major metro areas. We selected this property because of its proximity to the National Park and Route 33, the main route for visitors to the park. Sojourner is focused on offering guests a retreat in nature. As such, our focus is on creating as serene an environment as possible. That means keeping noise levels to a minimum, using dark-sky friendly lighting, planting lots of native trees on the property, and doing our best to preserve the rural character of the area.
