Former Dairy Farm but, the milking and hay barns burned many years Past.
Harold's View Farm now camping. There are 4 entrances to the 80 acres of hay fields, now camping sites. Three entrances are for two sites each, the house entrance is for any questions. Please stop in if you have questions.
The fields have been maintained to some degree until 2019 when Lee came up with the idea of primitive camping. The land turns out to be ideal because each site makes you feel like the only campers there.
New this year you will find a picnic table for 6 and a 3 Ft. dia. fire pit with adjustable grill that flips out for open fire @ each site.
Another new item is open to the sky "Hot Shower"

We live in this 1830's farmhouse and travel with our Airstream Basecamp 20X. Often boondocking, and knowing the need for an easy-access place to park our RV, whether it be for a night or a week, we decided to open our driveway to help our fellow RV-travelers explore both the Burlington, VT area and enjoy the great outdoor adventures the Green Mountain State has to offer. We also have a tent platform with a camp kitchen and outhouse as an additional option for Hipcampers. BEST OF ALL, either way, you have easy access to visit with our four fainting goats.

Escape the noise of the city and come and experience our off-grid lifestyle beside our babbling brook. 💚 We are miles from any towns with nothing to hear but the native birds on the lake and the babbling brook flow down the rocks; but still close enough to be within 30-60 minutes of several cool alluring local spots such as Lake Champlain, Arrowhead Lake, Smugglers Notch and Scenic Highway, Stowe and even Canada. The international airports of Burlington, Vermont USA & Montreal, Canada are easily accessible for connections to anywhere in the world. There is even a special added treat for visitors with a touch of Australian throw in by your Australian and American hosts... We now have 2 completely different sites, each with their own charm and things to offer guests. One is a cabin style canvas tent perched above the creek for romantic and peaceful interludes for two, while the other is more designed for group gatherings with an Aframe cabin, indoor/outdoor bath house and undercover entertaining kitchen/bar/dining deck. Nestled down in a peaceful wooded hollow with cleared vantage point for spotting wildlife while you party the night away around your firepit. It is decked out for four, however can take up to six on request and is fully heated so you can experience glamping well into the colder months! We can't wait to have you visit us!

Texas Hill Brook camp site
The Texas Hill Brook site is a flat, wooded campsite on Texas Hill Brook in Huntington. The campsite is roughly 10m x 30m (30' x 100'), large enough for several tents or a small camper/RV. It is accessed by a sloped 50m (about 150') gravel driveway. The narrowest part of the driveway is 2.6m (about 8.5 feet). There is a 3m x 3m (10' x 10') tent platform and a large picnic table. Firewood is provided. Near our home about 120m/400 feet away through the trees but relatively private. Within a short pedal or drive to some of the best mountain biking and hiking Vermont has to offer, 15 minutes to Richmond and Hinesburg, and just a half hour to Burlington. Electricity on site, primitive fire pit, but no other facilities, so ALL waste must be packed out. We have a bucket commode to loan if you don’t have your own.

Multiple showers/flushable toilets available. Dog friendly. Many guests but was very quiet, which was great.

Overview
About
Nestled on the western slopes of Vermont's highest peak, Underhill State Park offers a serene escape into nature's embrace. Here, adventurers can indulge in a variety of activities, from hiking the challenging trails of Mt. Mansfield to enjoying the tranquility of a campsite surrounded by the forest's whisper. Whether you're looking to conquer summits or simply unwind amid the greenery, Underhill State Park is your gateway to the great outdoors.
Notable campgrounds
- Group Camping Area: Reserved for organized groups, this area offers lean-to sites and tent sites amid the forest's serenity.
- Lower Camp Area: Near the contact station, this campsite features tent and lean-to sites with the convenience of flush toilets.
- Sheltered Tentsite: A unique CCC-built sheltered site available for rent, providing a rustic and cozy camping experience.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Book early, especially for peak season, as sites at Underhill State Park fill up quickly due to their popularity.
- Consider mid-week stays for better availability and a quieter camping experience.
- Keep an eye on cancellations, which can provide last-minute opportunities for sought-after sites.
- Explore nearby camping options to ensure you have a backup plan in case the park is fully booked.
When to go
The prime time to visit Underhill State Park is from the Friday of Memorial Day Weekend through October 15 for camping, or October 16 for day use. Summer offers lush greenery and full park services, while fall dazzles with vibrant foliage. Winter access is limited to skiing, and early spring may be muddy or closed for mud season.
Know before you go
- Pets are welcome throughout the park, but always clean up after your furry friends.
- Remember, there are no showers at the park, so plan accordingly for a rustic camping experience.
- Carpooling is recommended due to limited parking capacity, especially during peak visitation times.
- For the safety of the park's ecosystem, firewood must be heat-treated and certified if brought from out of state.
- Stay on marked trails to protect the fragile alpine tundra vegetation near the summit of Mt. Mansfield.
