Decker's Happy Hollow

2 sites · RVs10 acres · Wilton, ME

My husband, Bob, and I purchased the old farm in 1996. We had plans, life got in the way...now, we want to share the beauty of this peaceful haven with others, so that they too, can come, be refreshed away from the commercialism and hubbub of life.Our property is on a dead end road, and we are near the end of it. Our neighbor to the left is a small sugar shack and during the sugaring season, the smell of a wood-fire and sap boiling off fill the air. Our nearest neighbor to the right, can barely be seen when the trees are in leaf, and our neighbors across the road are set back away from the road, a retired couple...friendly but hardly ever seen.While we are in this quiet little hollow surrounded by hill covered trees, we are just five miles from the local department stores, town, and access to the Routes 2 & 4 highway. In Maine, the saying is: 'You can't get there from here'. Well, you can, but looking around you, you won't want to. It is a retreat from the cares and troubles that perplex, a haven where the stream winds through and rests your soul.On our 10+/- acres, we could put many camp sites, but in order to give you the quiet and peace we enjoy, we are only putting in 5 sites so you can spread out, enjoy, relax and unwind.We hope you enjoy our little place. We hope you find rest to your heart here. Blessings to you and thank you for booking our Decker's Happy Hollow for your vacation. Learn more about this land:Rustic open field backed with hillside 'sugar bush'. Maple sap house to the left (in view but not too close to camping) Stream behind the sites, with slope down to it.

Other things to note WINTER CONDITIONS (when ground is frozen): -4-wheel drive or All Wheel Drive needed. -There is NO running water from the well pump when the ground is frozen. The sink can be used with a bucket underneath. Bring extra water for washing. I will leave a couple of gallons to get you started! -Really big storms can cause reservations to sometimes be rescheduled but I always honor date changes or refunds due to storms. -Extreme Cold Weather: When temperatures fall to 15 degrees or below, we recommend that you use the propane heater in the bunk room along with the woodstove in the great room. It will be necessary for you to feed the wood stove every couple of hours. -Attention Snowmobilers: You may have to unload your snowmobiles at the bottom of the hill to get your trucks up the hill with trailers hitched. You could also leave your trailers at the bottom of the hill in a plowed out parking area. Ride the snowmobiles up separately. OTHER THINGS TO NOTE: Off the grid = NO ELECTRICITY! Amenities include bag shower, outhouse, gas range, woodstove, battery-operated LED lights, solar lights, candles, gas grill. No Shooting or target practice is allowed. Phone: Reliable cell phone service is 1 mile down the mountain in the spring and summer. Spotty service is available at the cabin during winter. Hydration: You MUST bring your own drinking water to be absolutely safe. The dug well is fed by springs and runoff. Dug wells can be contaminated by heavy rains, and wildlife. Drinking the well water is at your own risk. Bugs: This is mosquito and tick country. Use bug spray and do tick checks twice a day during spring, summer and fall. Pets: Dogs are welcome. PLEASE do not leave dogs unattended and alone in the cabin. Please toss poop into the woods. Smoking: Cigarette smoking is allowed OUTSIDE the cabin. Cannabis smoking is allowed inside the cabin. Trash: It would be appreciated if you took your own trash, but if that is not possible, you may leave all of your food garbage and trash in the cabin at check-out and we will dispose of it for you. We request that food garbage or food scraps are NEVER left outside. Wildlife: Please do not feed the bears or any other wildlife, including birds, squirrels, fox, deer, coyote or anything you may see here at Ridgeview Cabin. Feeding wildlife results in a negative impact on the lives and environment of the animals, including possible death or extermination of the animals, and presents a potential risk to your safety. Feeding animals means intentionally leaving food out for them, or even simply leaving a bag of garbage outside where animals can get into it. This means that taking care of your food garbage is extremely important. You are welcome to use the garbage bags found in the cabin. If you must remove food garbage from the cabin, please store it in your vehicle until check-out. Never store trash or food scraps outside. Keep it down for the locals: There are year round residents uphill and downhill of the cabin within half a mile. Please be respectful of their quality of life and refrain from long sessions of target practice, aggressive snowmobile/4-wheeler riding around the cabin/up and down the road, yelling and loud music after 8PM and before 8AM.
