Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Greener Pastures Camp

We recently spent a wonderful weekend despite the hot weather. We loved having the spot to ourselves. The campsite was well-maintained, with plenty of space for us to set up our tent and potty tent. The field at night lit up with lightning bugs was amazing! Jess was very communicative and very patient with our two young boys. They loved the chickens! We definitely will come back!

Weekend Trip to Atland Artist Residency

Beautiful spot. Very well maintained! Loved the outside shower.

Weekend Trip to Rosy Goat Farm

Perfect! Trisha was fast to respond and everything was organized and ready. Our spot had nice privacy and level ground to set up. Picnic table, fire pit, little trail lights to outhouse...what else could you want?!? We had a great stay. We biked into town and had a nice breakfast at the diner. Thanks!

Weekend Trip to Glamping with the Wild Horses

We had the most amazing weekend with our 7 year old. The hosts were so warm and kind and we loved learning about how to train wild mustangs. We went on a hike with the mustangs and they all have such unique personalities. What a gift this place is for them. We also found it to be a gift! The domes were beautiful- comfortable beds and a small private space to change. The three of us were very comfortable in Serene dream but we will bring our other two children for the bunk beds next time! The bathroom (outhouse) was so nicely decorated you forget about the smell ;) The campfire was fantastic and there was wood ready for us. My husband and son played corn hole and we grilled for dinner. The grounds are fun to explore and all while seeing the beautiful mustangs roam! We will definitely be back.

3 nights at Moon In The Pond Farm

Our stay at Dom's Moon in the Pond farm was ideal. The cabin was cozy and comfortable while the screens successfully kept the bugs out. The property is bucolic with adorable cows, lambs, chickens, etc. We pre ordered the spicy sausage with fennel along with other farm fresh foods - which were delicious. It was the perfect home after a long day of swimming and hiking. Would definitely come again!

1 night at Glamping with the Wild Horses

This place is magical. Beautiful, impeccably clean and decorated - even the bathroom was incredibly quaint. McKenzie was welcoming and kind. I wish I could stay for a week. We'll definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Fernwood on Alan F.’s Land

We loved camping at Fernwood 2! It was our first time camping in a long time and it was the perfect setting. Having our own bathroom was a nice touch. We thought it was shared. Loved the fire pit and shady area to setup our tent. The firefly's and stars at night were spectacular! Alan was very helpful you can tell the area is well kept and loved. Make sure to bring lots of bug spray. We didn't get to see all the trails, but we'll definetly be back. Thank you so much!!

Weekend Trip to Maple Corner Farm

One of our favorite camps! The ground for a tent was level, mulched, and under tree cover. The large field offered a ton of privacy making it nearly impossible to see the camp from the gate area. The stream about 100 yards into the woods behind the site was flowing at a trickle but we hung out at the site primarily. The fire pit was big too. Plenty of dead and downed wood to keep the fire going too. This is the second site of Dave’s we have stayed at and both have been great experiences.

Weekend Trip to Humble Farm with Simplicity

This site is exactly as described and pictured! Both hosts - Mary and Viktor - were extremely kind and welcoming. Yes, there was another group camping in the paddock BUT there's enough space that there was still plenty of privacy (more than a public campground). There was plenty of firewood provided at a reasonable $10. Everything was clean. Would definitely camp here again!

Weekend Trip to Adesa Farm

Always a lovely stay at Adesa Farm! We’ve been before & will be back again.

Weekend Trip to Hartwoods

My wife and I wanted a quiet couple of days with our dog and this place was perfect. Very clean flat site. Thanks it was just what we wanted. We will be coming back in the future.

Weekend Trip to Pegasus Farms LLC

This campsite was everything we hoped for and more. It’s perfect for self-sustainable, off-grid campers looking for peace, privacy, and a deep connection with nature. The site is quiet and secluded, with a very clean and well-stocked outhouse—such a thoughtful detail that made a big difference. The host was incredibly friendly and considerate, striking that perfect balance of being helpful while still respecting our space. The woodlands surrounding the site are absolutely beautiful, and the fireflies that come out at dusk created such a magical atmosphere. A definite highlight was watching the farm animals—seeing the horses and cows all peacefully eating hay together was entertaining and soothing. We did have an encounter with a bear family during our stay, which was both awe-inspiring and a good reminder: come prepared and practice smart wildlife safety. This is truly a wild and natural area, and that’s part of its beauty. We left feeling grounded, inspired, and already planning a return trip. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a genuine off-grid experience with a touch of farm charm and real wilderness.

Weekend Trip to Pegasus Farms LLC

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough wonderful things about our stay at this horse farm! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm hospitality by Farmer Ron, whose kindness and genuine love for the land made us feel right at home. He greeted us with a smile, gave us a quick tour, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Waking up to the soft sounds of horses and birds was incredibly calming. The property itself is spacious and serene—ideal for anyone looking to disconnect and recharge. The hosts were friendly, helpful, and clearly passionate about caring for the animals and the land. A highlight of our trip was spending time with the horses—especially Chunky! Chunky the horse stole our hearts with his sweet, gentle personality and his big, lovable eyes. We looked forward to seeing him every day. There were thoughtful touches everywhere, from firewood availability to clean facilities and helpful local recommendations. Whether you're an animal lover, an outdoor enthusiast, or just someone looking for a unique and peaceful place to stay, this horse farm is a hidden gem. We’re already planning our next trip back—highly recommend! And give Chunky a carrot for us!

Weekend Trip to Rosy Goat Farm

Rosy Goat was exactly what we needed, exactly when we needed it. Trisha’s place is a warm, soft space to land to get away from it all. It was our little one’s first camping trip and the gorgeous property, bustling farm, bevy of animals, and manicured camping area were perfect to introduce her to the world of nature. The camping area has a wonderful, natural lawn (or the perfectly flat wood chip beds) to house your tent; large beautiful trees to shade the area; a high-quality outhouse for when nature calls; and the most wonderful daily alarm of birdsong and bleating to start your days. We enjoyed a lovely rain on our last morning, and although the hosts don’t control the weather, the site they curated is an amazing backdrop for a rainy morning. We ate Rosy Goat eggs in the morning and took the farm tour to see how the chickens who lay them are managed—recommend. We enjoyed ice cream and the nearby farmer’s market, as well as walks on the property and even a swim down in one of the nearby rivers. 5/5 stars. Will be back!

4 nights at Fernwood on Alan F.’s Land

Another amazing weekend at Alan's land. Him and his wife are amazing and the sites are very well cared for.

1 night at Greener Pastures Camp

Super nice site! Jessica was very responsive and great to work with. Firepit, firewood available, lots of space.

This was a very private site with water and electrical hookups - perfect for testing out our RV chops as first-timers! Our dog appreciated being off-leash as well, a luxury he’s not typically afforded.

1 night at Glamping with the Wild Horses

We had such a wonderful glamping experience! Mackenzie was a wonderful host. Our kids absolutely loved the horse training demo. It was a highlight of the trip and so special to be a part of it. The hiking trails were peaceful, and the outdoor tub was the perfect way to unwind and soak in the natural beauty around us. It was both fun and relaxing. Really a perfect blend of adventure and serenity. Highly recommend! 🌿🐎✨

3 nights at Atland Artist Residency

Fine spaces, excellent management, no need unattended, solutions-oriented people. Great attention to detail. Clean, safe, welcoming. Highly recommended.

1 night at Atland Artist Residency

Excellent spot with a beautiful pagoda structure and many lovely camping platforms. The hot tub was great!

Mickelberry Forest Gardens

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!!! Learn more about this land: Thank you to all the wonderful friends we have met through this amazing program. We regret that our community at this time does now allow for "transient" renting of property and I unknowingly was operating outside of the zoning rules and regulations of our town. Please continue to get outside and enjoy all the beautiful places and spaces this world has to offer and keep in touch. We love you all! Thank you for your support!

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!!! Learn more about this land: Thank you to all the wonderful friends we have met through this amazing program.
