Sunflower Ranch is the name of our home and property. Not only is our cozy, modest house sunflower yellow but in August it is surrounded with sunflowers of all sizes. We share our property with a flock of sweet hens and ducks.....and a few bossy roosters. Eggs are available for purchase if needed. There is a little greenhouse with herbs, greens and strawberries. The field is also an apple orchard that mostly feeds the wildlife. The tent site is privately placed in our cove unseen from the house. We wanted to offer a site that we would enjoy as well and feels like it is in a world of its own. We spend all of our free time outside, camping and paddling the local rivers and lakes. Tommy and I can recommend many beautiful remote Maine adventures for you to experience that are located off the grid and away from all other humans. The sweet city of Ellsworth is only 7 miles away for all of your provisions and Otis General Store is 1 mile away.. they have everything to get you through plus beer, wine, ice and homemade pizza. We can give you a pass to visit the Beech Hill Pond Beach also only 1 mile away (I walk there all the time) which has clear water and a sandy bottom. Great spot to spend the day sunbathing and swimming. I can offer yoga, personal training, boxing and paddleboard lessons or SUP yoga for some onsite physical fitness fun upon request.

Weekend Trip to Graham Cracker Cabin and Campsites

This was my first Hipcamp and it was great. The cabin had everything we needed and though it definitely got cold, as we were visiting in mid-November, a fire and plenty of blankets kept us warm through the nights. This is a lovely little camping and so peaceful!

4 nights at Graham Cracker Cabin and Campsites

Super helpful hosts and a nice Hipcamp. It is as advertised for the most part being a rustic cabin. We've stayed in many rustic cabins through Hipcamp. A few things to note: Even though there is a woodstove (we used every night to keep us warm) the cabin does not hold heat because the walls to the cabin have large gaps so we had to use 4 bundles of hardwood a night to keep it comfortable at night (temps in the 20° to mid 30°s) We were somewhat prepared because we knew it wasn't insulated but we were not expecting the amount of heat loss due to all the gaps in the cabin. There are other campsites on the property which are a good distance away (some within sight) We got a little freaked out by a group of campers walking up to the cabin at 10:30 at night and waking us up. (Definitely not the host's fault) but just be aware it's not the most secluded. Being in the cabin it was a little quieter but this spot is off a main road so there is a bit of noise from that but definitely not something that would completely deter me. The host was very helpful when we mentioned that we'd like to drive up to the cabin. They told us we were not able to do that (I'd just suggest taking that as an option off the listing because we chose this site in part because of that having 4wd) but they offered to help us bring our stuff with another wagon attached to the owners tractor which was very nice. The cabin is equipped with everything you would need for rustic camp: pots, pans, water, utensils.

The cabin was cozy and when candlelit, even more so...loved the solar lights clearly marking the paths at night. Great place to hang your hat for a few days!

Tent sites are well spaced, and the Graham Cracker Cabin is in the center of it all. Paths in the field are well mowed and the cabin was clean and open when I arrived. The cabin does get quite warm during the day so leaving the doors open was a big help to get a breeze going through. At night there was enough of a cross breeze down in the main room to make sleeping comfortable. The loft was too warm for sleeping in August. Mornings were lovely and quiet, and I snuck a small bowl of blueberries from the low bushes along the path to go with breakfast. Overall a lovely location that gets quiet at night so you can hear the chorus of frogs in the brook.

Weekend Trip to Graham Cracker Cabin and Campsites

Linda is an attentive host. She greated us when we arrived, gave us a run down of the property amenties, where the cabin was, and provided a cart for us to lug our baggage to and from the cabin! The lack of road noise, and minimal exposure to firework booms was perfect this weekend. Exactly what I was hoping for with an out of the way stay! With such a rustic design, it gets pretty warm during the day inside, so spending time in the shade, by the brook, or at a near by lake is recommened during the hot hours by my partner and I. However, there are plenty of windows and a good draft through the doors to cool it off before the night! There also was quite a few cracks and crannies for varuious bugs and wasps to can make their way in to the living space, but there are precautionary measures provided, and im positive Linda would have assisted if we felt unsafe! Thank you for a weekend away from the city!

3 nights at Salt and Oak Farm

I usually visit NYC for my birthday but this year I decided to try something completely different and this was the full 180 from NYC. Instead of waking to the honking of traffic, it was the beautiful sounds of birds (and the friendly roosters). Though it was cold, I went into this knowing to bundle up. I brought extra blankets and was plenty warm. As another review posted, I brought battery powered string lights and a few extra candles and loved reading in the cozy bed at night. We did go through a lot of wood so we bought another bundle. Sorry to the hosts for using so much wood and candlelight! The chickens were absolutely hilarious. They surrounded us every time we walked by. I loved the mellow horses and all of the other animals. It was difficult not to just hang out with them all day. We hiked around the land and went into town a few times. Everyone was so friendly. Highly recommend for nature lovers!
