Sundial Farm
Pitch your tent and pick our apples by the pond on Westchester’s oldest working farm. You’ll enjoy complete privacy and quiet.
The Hawkey family has worked Sundial Farm for nearly half a century, from indoor plants to perennials to dressage school, to organic veggies, selling antiques, hosting a local CSA and farm stand, and most recently native plant landscaping with PlanIt Wild.
Sundial Farm can also be seen in many Hollywood productions, such as Blackkklansmen, The Hunters, and American Gangster.
*You may come across reviews talking about the farm stand and animals. Sadly those are no longer here, so stock up on goodies before you arrive.

Summers get hot in the northeast. And muggy. We’re sweating just thinking about it. When it’s mid-July and Connecticut is threatening to burst into flames, Kettletown State Park is where people go to cool off.The refreshing waters of the Housatonic River and Lake Zoar are guaranteed to lower your body temperature and restore your energy levels. The rest of the park that isn’t water is heavily wooded, providing lots of welcome shade. Shoot, you could even go for a hike and not worry about overheating. It’s the perfect summer getaway from summer, if that makes sense. Don’t think about it too much, just go.

The meadow we occupy was once the farmers property that I grew up next to at my parents farm house.
When he wanted to sell his property he offered it to us for purchase at a fair price if we would not develop more than we needed to live here.
We maintained the meadow adjacent to our property and have kept it as an agricultural site.
We have had our son develop an edible forest garden and a unique diversified small orchard so we can eat and share healthy organic fruits and vegetables while helping our environment and wildlife and educating others to do the same.
It is expensive to live in Newtown but we love our property.
We want to teach others to grow food from their land while helping to support us keeping our adjacent property agricultural and undeveloped.
Our property has provided many happy gatherings and events and we love to share it with others.
Let us know if there is anything special we can help provide for you.
Come visit Mickleberry!!!

If there was a beauty pageant for all the lakes in Connecticut, Lake Waramaug wins, hands down. It’s not even a competition. Scenically, Lake Waramaug State Park is unrivaled. Being caught without a camera here is like showing up to potluck without a dish. You just don’t do it.When the fall foliage starts to peak, whoa. The sight of the vivid colors reflected in the unrippled lake surface is more beautiful than anything you’ve ever seen. Don’t let your significant other hear you say that, though. If you listen closely, you can hear the clicking shutters of a thousand photographers.

A perfect stay with so much space for our group of 10 to spread out as if we had the whole place to ourselves. If you need anything (firewood, charcoal) they respond immediately by call or text and you’ll get what you need. Great to always come back to if you want to get away from it all!

Kathleen’s campsite was a little slice of heaven! The sites are much farther apart than I’ve seen at other drive in campgrounds, giving you privacy. Site 6 was big enough for a couple of cars and tents, and we’d definitely consider coming back with friends! The paths and trails were all very clearly marked and well kept, with fun notes from past campers. The outhouses were incredibly clean as well. Kathleen came out to meet me, my fiance and our adventure cat, which was a great touch. I’d recommend this site for anyone who wants a relaxing getaway in nature with or without your furry friends!

Stayed at site #4 to test out my rig before heading cross country.
Exactly what I was looking for!
Had the pleasure of catching Eric and his wife as they headed into the multi use area, seemingly for an evening stroll. They were extremely welcoming.
Waking up, to my surprise, someone throughout the night had pulled a van rig into site 2! Didn’t hear a thing the spacing was perfect. Didnt feel on top of each other whatsoever.
