Experience ultimate relaxation in a quiet, peaceful wooded setting on a 22-acre farmstead in the beautiful foothills of western Maine. There are two private glampsites, one off-grid cabin located 500-feet from our farmstead and the other a charming cottage with electricity, located in the heart of the property.

Reading and napping in the hammock is highly recommended. The night skies are dark, so plan for dreamy stargazing in the zero gravity chairs. Hike into the hills on well-maintained logging roads.

I moved up here 5 years ago for space + snow + to grow my dog sled team - me n the dogs are happy to share our space! The 10 acre field is open, partially mowed & offers apples in the fall. The view of the mountain is really nice. Enjoy the fire pit or walk through the 60 acres of woods.  Please note, my house is located on the road, in the front corner of the field.  It is possible to camp in the field a spot such that you do not have to see my house.  You can also camp just behind the field in maple trees (there's a clear path).  The other option is to walk into the back back woods and fashion yourself a place to camp if you are feeling a bit more rugged / adventurous - there are paths but they are not newly installed / groomed (originally created for logging activities a long time ago so - rugged).  There's a brook at the far side of my property which goes all along the back edge. Nearby Norway Lake is great for swimming, boating, kayaking, etc (public boat launch is an easy drive). This is a great place for road running as well (or road biking if you can handle the hills).  Note that the field is a field-there's no road laid in.  I can drive into fine in my Sienna but if you have a really low car you might have to walk it. Fires in fire pit only for safety reasons This is rustic camping!  There's no electricity or running water.  I can provide a 5 gal jug of spring water for drinking / fire dousing (please let me know in advance if you will need this so I can go to the spring).  If you are not self contained in terms of bathroom, you are welcome to use my guest bath inside (just have to text me) You should have full cell signal in the middle of the field and in the high points in the back woods (but definitely it drops out in the lower points).  There is a barn that is occasionally available for eating / camping; there is electricity & wifi in there as well as lights and tables.  There's an extra charge for this -please inquire about availability.   Spot is dog friendly - let me know if you'd like me to leave some snow fencing out for you to fashion a bit of an enclosed area. I have some agility equipment & all kinds of mushing equipment if your pup might be interested.  Happy to do mini demos / lessons for a small extra fee.  I have a spare

Private Farmstead Cabin Glamping

Experience ultimate relaxation in a quiet, peaceful wooded setting on a 22-acre farmstead in the beautiful foothills of western Maine. There are two private glampsites, one off-grid cabin located 500-feet from our farmstead and the other a charming cottage with electricity, located in the heart of the property. We offer farmstead tours to visit our lush gardens and meet our herd of five super friendly Nigerian Dwarf goats, three pigs and flock of laying hens. (Fresh eggs and veggies from the garden are offered when available.) A pristine lake with excellent swimming, kayaking and paddle boarding is less than two miles away. Reading and napping in the hammock is highly recommended. The night skies are dark, so plan for dreamy stargazing in the zero gravity chairs. Hike into the hills on well-maintained logging roads. Both cabins are made from pine trees that once stood on-site and have comfy queen-sized beds with luxurious bedding. Enjoy cooking over the campfire or in the fully equipped screened-in outdoor kitchens with two-burner gas stoves and grills. The glampsites include private outhouses and outdoor battery-powered showers. We provide amazing, mineral-rich drinking water from our ever-flowing spring and as much firewood as you need for campfires in the stone fire pits.

I moved up here 5 years ago for space + snow + to grow my dog sled team - me n the dogs are happy to share our space! The 10 acre field is open, partially mowed & offers apples in the fall. The view of the mountain is really nice. Enjoy the fire pit or walk through the 60 acres of woods.  Please note, my house is located on the road, in the front corner of the field.  It is possible to camp in the field a spot such that you do not have to see my house.  You can also camp just behind the field in maple trees (there's a clear path).  The other option is to walk into the back back woods and fashion yourself a place to camp if you are feeling a bit more rugged / adventurous - there are paths but they are not newly installed / groomed (originally created for logging activities a long time ago so - rugged).  There's a brook at the far side of my property which goes all along the back edge. Nearby Norway Lake is great for swimming, boating, kayaking, etc (public boat launch is an easy drive). This is a great place for road running as well (or road biking if you can handle the hills).  Note that the field is a field-there's no road laid in.  I can drive into fine in my Sienna but if you have a really low car you might have to walk it. Fires in fire pit only for safety reasons This is rustic camping!  There's no electricity or running water.  I can provide a 5 gal jug of spring water for drinking / fire dousing (please let me know in advance if you will need this so I can go to the spring).  If you are not self contained in terms of bathroom, you are welcome to use my guest bath inside (just have to text me) You should have full cell signal in the middle of the field and in the high points in the back woods (but definitely it drops out in the lower points).  There is a barn that is occasionally available for eating / camping; there is electricity & wifi in there as well as lights and tables.  There's an extra charge for this -please inquire about availability.   Spot is dog friendly - let me know if you'd like me to leave some snow fencing out for you to fashion a bit of an enclosed area. I have some agility equipment & all kinds of mushing equipment if your pup might be interested.  Happy to do mini demos / lessons for a small extra fee.  I have a spare
