Very warm and inviting. Private and accessible. Had a great stay and will definitely stay again. Kids had a great time with the goats; plenty of space to set up two large tents and spread out.

The space is great and has a family oriented feel. The farm and the animals give it an additional charm

Camp under the apple trees
We had a wonderful experience camping at the Farm. I highly recommend stocking up there at the farm market, daily. We ate very well.

An easy, relaxing trip
Molly's farm is so cute, and the orchard is a great place to bet nestled in for the night. Really accessible from NYC, super communicative, what more could you ask for.

What a nice little getaway on this farm! We enjoyed eating fresh food from the farm and sleeping under the apple trees. The area was very secluded and we saw so many fireflies at night it was beautiful. Molly was a great and responsive host.

We spent 1 night at Molly's farm and we had a lovely time. The farm was beautiful with goats and chickens, a great farm store and really helpful and friendly staff. The location of the camp in the orchard was lovely and we spent a great evening enjoying the fire and watching fire flies. Would 100% recommend.

Ultra Pleasant Vibes!
Sundial Farm was fantastic! A perfect getaway from the city. Loved how the campsite was nestled away in the orchard -- it felt private and the morning shadows were beautiful along the columns of trees. We enjoyed exploring the grounds, squawking at the chickens, attempting to pet the goats, and perusing the farmers market. Molly was an incredible host: very responsive and accommodating. Definitely recommend!

Beautiful spot, nicest hosts ever
I had a fantastic stay at Historic Sundial Farm. It's a beautiful little spot with plenty of privacy, but Molly was always available to help with anything. When it got colder than expected, she dropped off extra firewood, an extra blanket for my dog, and a pair of gloves for me. On my way out I had the pleasure of meeting her mom, who let me borrow a car roof cargo bag for the rest of my road trip. Above and beyond in every way!

Very Private in an orchard
Molly was great and met us upon arrival. We camped when it was a little muddy and slippery. We had SUV's so it was less of an issue, but I can see a regular car possibly having more trouble. We found a great flat spot in the back. The Taconic is close and it can only be faintly heard. The fact this is a single site-hip camp more than makes up for it. Been to sites with multiple sites and it's noisier that the nearby Taconic. Didn't need to use the restroom, it wasn't next to the site but it wasn't too far of a walk away.

Molly was very helpful and sent us a very cute map, since we were arriving after dark and she was not at home when we arrived. Everything was as expected and she went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable.

We had such a great time at the farm! Molly set us up with a firepit and a nice, long table. The orchard was lovely. The bathrooms and water are a little far from the site, so be sure to check them out in the daylight to get an idea of where they are. I wish we had not brought so many fresh fruits and veggies because the farm stand had such a variety! And be sure to bring mosquito repellant! Those buggers were ravenous. We're definitely planning another stay in the fall.

Sundial farm was a beautiful place to camp. There is a farm stand on the way in with delicious local goods. My dog and I stayed in the orchard, which was secluded and peaceful. Molly was a wonderful host and great communicator. Would definitely recommend!
