Cabins in New York State Parks

  |  June 6, 2013

Need we say more? Well, okay, a little bit more. We cottoned to the idea of almost-camping: setting up shop in a shelter in one of New York State’s beautiful parks. They’re affordable and darned cute, ranging from the rustic to the, well, less rustic.
