We had an amazing experience staying on Liz’s land. The land is beautiful with forests and clearings. We loved the little trails and seeing what they had going on on the property. The children loved feeding the chickens and exploring the forest. Liz and Jason were amazing hosts and gave us space, but made us feel very welcome too. We came during the maple syrup season and they invited us to their sugar shack and shared some of their freshly made maple syrup with us, as well as some hot chocolate made with the maple sap. Our children got to meet their two day old chick. What a beautiful experience. We can’t thank them enough and look forward to returning again in the summer.
This was my second visit to the site and it was as amazing as the first. Liz and her husband were so accommodating and made some great recommendations that made the location of my campsite even more secluded. At this time of year, the leaves were gone so they showed me a location further in that was just beautiful. Unfortunately, I ended up having to leave abruptly due to illness. I was concerned about the fire still steaming and let Liz know it was. She was kind enough to tell me she would check on it and I was able to focus on just getting home. I’ve said it before and will say it again, definitely my regular go to spot now.
I was really looking for a feeling of peace and seclusion and I definitely found it here.
Liz was a wonderful host and showed me around the property on arrival. I was also invited to grab eggs if I wanted (wished I hadn’t brought a dozen!).
I ended up camping on my own, so Liz was extremely considerate, reaching out to see if I was doing okay and had everything I needed. Water was easy to get and is actually quite refreshing. Firewood was more than a reasonable price, especially since it was delivered directly to my site along with a five gallon pail of water.
My final night was the most amazing with a clear sky, full moon and tons of stars.
It is definitely a little chilly this time of year, but as soon as the weather warms, this spot will become my regular oasis when I need to escape.
This is an amazing spot. The hosts are the very best. The spot looks like it might not be private, but it is very private. I was lucky enough to see a deer. Do bring bug spray! I would stay here again in a second.
I loved the place it was beautiful and very intresting. There are lot of things to do. You will love the place.
