26mi from Old Orchard Beach · 8 sites · Tents, Lodging · Pownal, ME
Highland cattle graze at the forest's edge on our Celtic-heritage farm: a gentle retreat with options for woodland wandering, farm-fresh breakfasts (weekdays only, must be requested one week in advance), and campfires complete with traditional Gaelic music! Our 40-acre farm includes heritage-breed animals, organic gardens, and over 30 acres of conservation woodlands. We favor scythes over tractors--your stay will be quiet and fume-free! Bradbury Mountain and several trail networks are nearby, along with rivers, ocean beaches, and an excellent locavore food scene. Since the early 1800s, this land on the edge of Chandler Brook has nourished bodies and spirits alike. Sloping pastures meet well-managed woodlands, making this a haven for both humans and wildlife. Since the 1980s, we have worked to restore the soil and make a "hand-built" life as farmers using pre-industrial organic methods. We maintain pollinator habitats, tend an orchard of heirloom-variety fruit trees, and conserve rare heritage-breed animals, including Tamworth pigs and Scottish Highland Cattle. Our shared love for Celtic folk culture has blended naturally with our love of sustainable agriculture to create Tir na nOg Farm. Today, the work of restoration continues with the help of farm partners, family, friends, WWOOFers, and other volunteers. This land is already better than we found it, but we hope it will remain a gathering-ground of culture and agriculture, tradition and innovation for generations to come.

Nestled between Portland's fine dining and Sebago's outdoor fun, the Sunrise Yurt is a great spot to explore what Southern Maine has to offer. Rent some kayaks, take the ferry to Peaks Island, or gorge on sushi in the Old Port. Park and take a short walk to the back 2 acres of my property. The yurt overlooks a meadow and faces the sunrise. Catch some shade in the day in one of our hammocks, play a game of cornhole, and sleep comfortably in a clean, queen sized bed.

The Bell Tent At Honey & Stem Farm

47mi from Old Orchard Beach · 1 site · Lodging · Fryeburg, ME
Get away from it all when you stay under the stars in our 3 season bell tent on Honey & Stem Flower Farm in Fryeburg, Maine. The tent is on a small raised platform, so you are less likely to get water underneath in the event of rain. With views of farm animals (and usually some deer) while sleeping in front of the open field across from the garden and ducks, enjoy a small getaway with the luxury of a real queen size bed (not a deflating air mattress!), while still getting that "off grid camping" experience. The field is not far from the road (Route 5), so you will inevitably hear the cars drive by. With solar lighting, rocking chairs, a small phone charging station, a fire pit, and a table for two, its the perfect camping set up where you don't actually have to set everything up! Bathroom: We will have a small bathroom tent set up with a bucket toilet for an emergency bathroom, but no formal portable toilet set up/ portable toilet. The woods are also a short walk from the tent spot, however we kindly ask that you properly dig and bury should you use this, as we do have 3 dogs of our own on the property. Please note: This is a working farm and there will be people working in the garden and feeding animals from 7 am to 6 pm daily. They will respect your privacy and maintain quiet hours until 8 am. We can't promise the Rooster or Sheep will keep quiet hours though. Please also note: Farm animals can be smelly, its all part of the farm experience, we do our best to maintain animal shelters to keep this smell at bay but some animals, like pigs, may be smelly regardless. We are happy to bring you coffee at 7:30 or 8 am at your request. We can leave this in a thermos on the small table by the tent (Refer to the coffee gift basket image). We offer a "breakfast basket, with a thermos of hot coffee or hot tea and a half dozen farm fresh eggs, We can accommodate sugar along with dairy free and regular creamer with an advanced request. We also offer a "smores" basket to purchase at your request If you'd like to purchase some farm fresh eggs or other produce, please just shoot us a message. Our farm stand is no longer located on the farm, but now at our secondary location in town Fryeburg, but we are happy to provide these elements to you and we actually keep a fridge in the Garden Shed, across from the tent location, which we can store items in for you at your request. We will have a small cooler available for your use upon request, just bring your own ice. We look forward to hosting you on our small Family Farm!

Everyone on the farm was very friendly and helpful. It was fun to live the ‘farm life’ for a few days among the chickens, piglets, and cows. A calf was born our first day!

3 nights at Black Point Surf Club
My girlfiend and I had a wonderful stay at the Black Point Surf Club and would definitely go back! Frederick was a wonderful host, friendly and responsive to our questions. The location is super close to Scarborough beach (parking pass provided with the rental) and Higgins beach and is a couple minute walk from an awesome farmstand and ice cream shop! Fredrick provided surf boards, boogie boards, and beach chairs which was fun and convenient!

very peaceful and beautiful farm. Our tent was very clean and comfortable; I had a great night of sleep. Holly was welcoming and kind and showed us where everything we would need was located. My kids absolutely loved the pigs on the farm. I would definitely return and recommend to friends.

4 nights at Tir na nOg Farm
We had an amazing stay! The farm is perfect, even more idyllic than it looks in the photos, and the tent and bed were roomy and comfortable. Holly was great and welcoming. The many animals on the farm were also fun. We really enjoyed the fire pit and made some good meals there. We will hopefully be back if we're in Maine again!

Weekend Trip to Tir na nOg Farm
My friend and I had a great night at the Tir na nog Farm. The location was beautiful and very easy to navigate. We stayed in the bell tent which was set up lovely with a bed a small table, rug and extra bedding as well as some coffee and tea essentials for the morning. It was such a cool experience and the perfect 1 night camping trip since the tent part was all taken care of. Holly was such a welcoming host and gave us a tour upon arrival. My friend and I enjoyed visiting the highland cows, company of chickens and seeing the pigs. There was an option for a campfire at the campfire circle or a spot to set up your own camp stove. The out houses were clean and easy to get to. Thank you again for the lovely stay!

Weekend Trip to Sebago Sunrise Yurt
The site and yurt were lovely! It’s far enough through a wooded path that you don’t feel like you’re right behind someone’s home. Our dogs had a blast zooming through the field and appreciated settling down in the cozy yurt just as much. We only stayed for one night but it was exactly the private nature getaway we needed and didn’t even have to drive more than 15 minutes from town to get there.
