Stories from the community

Great spot for all you Overlanders out there!

Weekend Trip to Vernal Heights

Great spot for camping!! Lots of privacy and a beautiful spot in the woods. Hosts were so friendly, and our dogs had a great time!

Weekend Trip to Moon In The Pond Farm

Very nice property, each site is very private. Be ready to walk your things to the site. Dom has wheelbarrows to help move things which is great. Great experience, the firewood is a nice big bundle. We loved the animals on the farm too. No tables at the sites but there are some nice stumps you can easily use as a table. Thanks Dom

1 night at Rehovot Glen

Michael & Jenner were absolutely fantastic! They were incredibly welcoming, always ready to help in every possible way, making our stay truly special. Their land is a perfect spot for a peaceful getaway, with beautiful surroundings and a great atmosphere. I highly recommend staying here you won’t be disappointed!

Weekend Trip to Woodland's Edge Glamping & Hot Tubs

Andrea was a great host to us during our short weekend stay. The space is homey and quiet despite being in a residential neighborhood. We felt safe and alone. I booked this site because of the bathtubs and began to feel very hesitant about it since we had a lot of wind, some rain, and it was exactly warm out. Once the time came to enjoy our soak though, it was soooooo worth it. We cut our stay a little bit short due to a steady increase of critters trying to get out of the rain but none the less had a wonderful time. We spent our days skipping around the local towns and buying everything in sight both edible and not. We’re leaving with full cars and bellies.

Weekend Trip to Offsite Cabin Wassaic

It was such a sweet spot—perfect for a quiet get-away and within driving distance of some spectacular food! The hosts were excellent and responsive. Overall, it was a very positive experience.

Weekend Trip to Vernal Heights

This was a great spot in a very nice part of CT! Although cold my friend and i endured through no issue. Its nice, wooded and a very quiet area!

Weekend Trip to Woodland's Edge Glamping & Hot Tubs

My group who stayed at Andrea’s glampsite had such a great time. Andrea was communicative, attentive and friendly. She made sure we had everything we needed. The hot tub experience was just magical, and the fire pit was perfect to cook a meal over and gather around. We loved how close this campsite was to town, yet it also felt like a little private getaway from it all. The tent itself was spacious yet cozy. What a special time and space. Highly recommend!

2 nights at Woodland's Edge Glamping & Hot Tubs

I had a wonderful time. Beautiful place! 🤩 The tent was beautiful!

1 night at Hammock Hallows

Andrea was the most kind host I have ever had. She made me and my partner feel so welcome, and even let us stay in her nicer campsite area because no one was staying there that night. She came out and had some marshmallows with us, and we even got to meet her dog and child. Their entire family and energy was so welcoming and made for a wonderful night camping.

Weekend Trip to Moon In The Pond Farm

Dominic is a great host and the camp site was perfect. I’d happily go back again.

Weekend Trip to Moon In The Pond Farm

The cabin at Dominic’s farm was beautiful and so peaceful! We had a wonderful stay. Lots to do in the area and close to Great Barrington.

Weekend Trip to Atland Artist Residency

Super cool tiny cabin, everything was set up nicely and the surrounding land is beautiful.

Weekend Trip to Woodland's Edge Glamping & Hot Tubs

This site is such a magical place! The Fern Gully Sanctuary cabin is adorable and had everything we needed. It got pretty chilly on our second night but Andrea was so kind and brought us some extra blankets to make sure we stayed warm. It was also the perfect mix of wilderness and civilization for an impromptu fall camp trip!

Weekend Trip to Atland Artist Residency

I had such a great time at the cabin! The hosts were great (two women while I was there). Everything was super clean and well thought out, I had brought several things that I ended up not needing to unpack because the little (it is very little…) cabin was so well stocked! The trails on the property are short but awesome, the outdoor shower was great. The outhouse was beautiful and very clean. The Wi-Fi was pretty good and fast, but it was a little bit spotty/in and out. I came to the cabin as a tiny solo writing retreat and spent a lot of time inside and though it small and chilly outside I was very comfortable and cozy! I will say I also saw a few critters in the cabin, nothing to be alarmed about but if you’re opting for a cabin over a tent because outdoor friends are a 100% no for you, you have to remember the cabin is still in the woods 🙃 I felt super safe as a solo woman, with lots of privacy but the main Atland house in view for emergency/peace of mind. Excellent location. Would totally come again.

We're named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024 and 2023! Over 40 acres of solitude tucked in the hilltowns of the western Massachusetts Berkshires -- boasting warm sunrises over the distant hills, lush forest for hiking and meandering river frontage on Bronson Brook and walking distance to the Westfield River to wade and soak in the cool mountain water or fish for native trout! The cabin and camping sites are located in beautiful trails that were created around the main home -- an architect designed masterpiece boasting a wonderful asian influence yet handcrafted from the very timberstock off the land on which it sits lending a refined rustic twist. 25 Min to Northampton and 10 min to the Berkshires! You can hike or bike to the best swimming holes around and camp within our beautiful forested hills of hemlock, birch, maple, and wildflower meadow. If you're into kayaking/canoeing/tubing/hiking/fishing, then this is the perfect space for you. Come escape and breathe in our cool clean mountain air :)

Moon In The Pond Farm

5 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents35 acres · Sheffield, MA

Well off the beaten track, it's scenic, private and peaceful. Camping at Moon In The Pond Farm is a little bit of heaven. There are six separate sites to choose from. All are in separate, different locations around the farm, so you have your own secluded spot to enjoy. (Though you may be sharing a field next to our Scottish Highland cattle!) Two are tent sites: the PondSide and the FieldEdge. There's one site for small/tiny RVs or Campervan. There's the BellTent--a bit of "glamping". And finally there's the HiddenCabin--a bed a roof and convenience. Each has a firepit with a small grill to cook over the fire. (all firewood provided) Our campsites are located in quieter areas of the farm. One overlooks the pond, three others are under the trees on the edges of different farm fields, one is a cabin nearer the farmstead. All require a beautiful, bucolic trek of 150-350 yards from the roadside parking--ensuring the quiet, natural experience. During the day times, you may see or hear farm work. At night it's lusciously dark and serenely quiet. You'll hear owls hoot, frogs croak, crickets chirp, foxes yowl and coyotes howl! In June and July the fields and trees light up like Christmas with fireflies, and you'll see the stars. During the week is the absolute best time--the local hot spots (or cooling down spots!) are much quieter, and all our campsites have reduced weekday rates. If you can, take advantage by adding a Thursday or Sunday night to a weekend stay. Wanna hike? We've got an awesome, easy hiking trail on adjacent Nature Conservancy preserved land. It meanders through woodlands, around rock ledges, through wetlands (on a 600' of boardwalk) and ends at a beautiful stream and pond with a gigantic beaver dam. Not far from here are numerous well-marked hiking trails (including the Appalachian Trail (with famous Bash Bish Falls) and several offshoots (Sage's Ravine, Race Brook Falls), Bartholomew's Cobble, Umpacheenee Falls, and others). Also in the neighborhood are opportunities for canoeing, kayaking, swimming, rock climbing, off-road, gavel-road and country-road biking, snowshoeing, cc skiing and pretty much any outdoor activity/adventure opportunity. Or... you can just chill and relax, sleep, or read the day away! Love food? This is Farm-to-Table for real! Never so close--the table's AT the farm!! Bring your cooking gear and get some of our wicked fresh organic food--veggies, chops, sausages, eggs, bacon, granola, yogurt, etc. Sear yourself up a real treat! Very nearby, as the Berkshires is an alternative cultural mecca, there are also numerous entertainment opportunities from many great restaurants to art, dance, music, spas, galleries, antique shops, museums, cafes and much more. It's still amazingly quiet at the farm where the Milky Way is clearly visible.
