We are NOT a campground. We are opening our home and farm for travelling visitors to have a safe place to rest at a reasonable price. Those that wish to have an extended stay here are welcome, but please do not expect the amenities of a campground. We are a humble, small, family-operated, diversified farm spanning 180 acres. Alongside raising thirteen children, we take pride in cultivating u-pick blueberries, raspberries, apples, and pumpkins, as well as raising meat poultry and laying hens. Our farm also boasts a variety of livestock, including cows for dairy products and beef, egg-layers, and sheep. Notably, our children are actively involved in caring for and utilizing riding and driving horses. Located not too far from the North Woods, the Allagash, Mt. Kathadin, and numerous lakes, we are surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. Please note: No generators except for medical purposes, upon pre-approval. No unattended outdoor lights. We enjoy our quiet and dark skies without pollution. Garbage is carry in, carry out unless paid for under extras. Thank you.

85 acres of woodlands, fields, and wetlands located in the shadow of Mount Katahdin, and conveniently just 2 miles off Route 95, along the Katahdin Woods and Waters Scenic Byway. We call our special spot Siberia Crossing, a nod to the workers who laid the Bangor and Aroostook RR tracks in the late 1800s, and dubbed the place "colder than Siberia!" Go for a paddle in a small bog adjacent to our property (kayaks provided) and look for beavers and moose, take a leisurely stroll through the forest, get out your binoculars and Merlin App and see what you can find for birds, or just sit on the deck and enjoy the stunning sunsets over the entire Katahdin Range. And another thing - the STARS! You can either take in the nationally acclaimed dark skies right from the tent deck, or grab a blanket and head down to the field where you will be rewarded with 360-degree dark sky views! And don't pass up the regional foliage season, which is always spectacular with amazing foliage views both on the property and over Katahdin in the Fall. This private gated property is within close proximity to numerous outdoor recreational opportunities and hundreds of thousands of acres of conserved lands, including Baxter State Park, Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument, and Penobscot River Trails. Whether you enjoy hiking, biking, kayaking, canoeing, birding, hunting, fishing, trail riding or simply relaxing in the great Maine outdoors, you are sure to find our property a suitable basecamp for your North Woods adventures.
