Strawberry Fields Farm

3 sites ¡ RVs, Tents13 acres ¡ Sherman, CT
Strawberry Fields Farm is a berry farm located in Sherman, CT. The property was originally farmed by the Giddings family who built the house and barn in 1775. It is one of the oldest homes in Sherman, CT. General George Washington, Alexander Hamilton and the Marquis de Lafayette passed by (the house is located on Washington's map) on their way to meet Rochambeau in Hartford. Captain Giddings was one of General Washington's officers. The property is surrounded by Northwest Connecticut Land Conservancy land trust to the west and to the north and east by federal land which protects the Appalachian Trail. Access to the Appalachian Trail is direct from this property and hikes can be taken north toward Bulls Bridge, or south toward Pawling, NY. Learn more about this land: Pitch your tent on our farm located adjacent to the Appalachian Trail just over the border of where it crosses into CT.  The camping spot on our farm offers privacy but also a picnic table, fire ring (firewood available) and swimming hole and best of all you have direct access to the Appalachian Trail. Walk north 3 miles to Ten Mile River, or 4.5 miles to Bulls Bridge. Or walk south to access the Great Swamp in Pawling, NY.  Also, if the chickens are laying, you can pick up some fresh eggs in our farm stand for breakfast,  We also offer honey, maple syrup, veggies, herbs and berries in season. We live on the property with our sons and our two big, but friendly dogs (they are behind an electric fence so only meet them if you want to). You may bring pets but they must remain leashed at all times (we are adjacent to a main road and dogs run more quickly than you think). There is a swimming hole on the property. There are turtles and snakes but they don't bother us and we don't bother them. There are also a few kayaks that guests are welcome to use. However, it is SWIM AT YOUR OWN RISK. There is no lifeguard. Children 12 and under must wear life jackets when swimming or kayaking regardless of swim ability. Please bring your own life jackets as we do not have any extra to lend. Our property is a perfect spot for quiet camping, just enjoying nature and is a great base for day hikes on local trails. We are not good fit for larger, rowdier groups. Please specify when booking how many in your party and tell us a little bit about what you are looking for. We like to make sure all our campers have the experience they expect. We like to meet you to show you around so please provide an estimated time of arrival. If it isn't possible we will send you all the instructions you need to get settled on your own. Thank you!

The Sandbox Campground

The Sandbox campground was born from The Sandbox Indoor Beach Sports and Events facility, which mainly focuses on providing year round beach volleyball. We bought the property in 2015 and opened the facility in 2019. As it happens, it's a 12+ acre lot surrounded by wetlands, hiking and biking trails ... there will never be another building built within view of our facility. We are surrounded by nature, and will be forever. So what a great opportunity to offer camping and access to all of the forests, woodlands, wetlands and trails around! And if you're up for it, come play some beach volleyball and meet new lifelong friends :)
