There are two chairs in the tipi, which if removed at night, make floor room for four other sleeping bags. 'Forest Bathing' for miles!

An established Western facing four point sacred Medicine Wheel site being established on Askari Ridge - our name for the slope starting with the two fire pits - 'Askari' being Swahili for night guard. Here is where we envision a great touch-point area for those leading groups to be for a base-camp by day or night, where eventually a multi-use tenting platform/performance stage will be constructed for outdoor entertainment, creating an authentic 'stadium style' seating on the hill. You will see on your way up to Salamander Hollow main clearing - the Kula Bata Tiny Kabin on the left of the dirt road- now available to rent with its small guest room for two, infrared sauna, hot shower, kitchenette, dishwasher and laundry.

Welcome to Rosy Goat Farm!! We are the quintessential family farm/homestead, our farmhouse was built in the 1840’s Bill and I bought this 13-acre property in 2012, It was overgrown with wild roses. We have worked with a limited budget, and used animals to clear the land. The goats love the wild roses. The pigs dig the roses up. Chickens rake it clean. Win win! Very interesting place here- lots to tell you, there’s quite a list of things to do and see around here! Did you know that Gilbertville has a covered bridge? It is one of the last covered bridges still in use in Massachusetts! First- a touch of Hardwick History: Rev. Timothy Ruggles bought this land from the Native Americans for his family to live on, and to work the land. His son, Brigadeer General Timothy Ruggles became unpopular after he introduced the Stamp Act, and was banished to Nova Scotia. His daughter Bathsheba became the last woman executed in the United States for the murder of her husband Joshua Spooner. (There’s a book about it called Murdered by his wife, by Deborah Navas.) Want to know local eateries? For breakfasts and lunch there is The Whistle Stop diner, it was a former Boston & Albany Railroad station. Speaking of railroads, did you know that The Mass Central Rail Trail runs through Gilbertville! Rose 32, is a well known bakery that serves tea, coffee and sandwiches. There’s Hardwick house of Pizza- for tasty pizza and subs, which also serves beer. Feeling fancy? Try Hardwick Crossing Country Club (features a 9 hole golf course), it has a restaurant with a full-service bar, gorgeous scenery! Its a 3 minute drive from here Mimi’s for your morning coffee and lunch, yum! And it overlooks our beautiful Common! Also check out Stone Cow Brewery in Barre -has a kids play area while you wait for your meal! Ware has Mexicali Grill, Theresa’s Restaurant for Italian foods, Bellies Barnyard for traditional American cuisine, and, Pig Park BBQ for comfort food! Farmer Mat in North Brookfield has take out meals- there are picnic tables available, beautiful views. Things to do: You can kayak, and fish, at Swift River in Belchertown. Hardwick is the home of the oldest agricultural fair in the US, held every year in August, and, every Sunday there’s a small farmers market on the common. Hardwick also has a winery- Hardwick Vineyard and Winery, they have all kinds of events, (find them on facebook) and, check out Lost Towns brewery- the name is a throwback to the 4 towns that were submerged to create the Quabbin Reservoir! Medicine River Pow Wow is in August here in Gilbertville, on River Run Rd. The East Quabbin Land Trust has birdwatching and fabulous views, and the Mass Central Rail Trail entrance is located here. Bike it or hike it! Quabbin Reservoir is close by for boating and fishing. There are free concerts in Grenville Park in Ware, (check for dates). Ware also has Janine’s Frostee ice cream and fast foods- and live music on weekend nights! Also check out these on line: Ragged Hill orchard and Rock House Reservation in West Brookfield, and Carter and Stevens farm in Barre. The Leicester, and Mendon movie drive-in’s. Old Sturbridge village is 30 minutes away. Lake Lashaway has a swimming area in East Brookfield, right off of Rte 9. It’s about 20 minutes from here. Lake Siog in Holland has a lovely picnic area and beach for swimming. (30 mins South from here) Is this area great or what?!

Originally a classic New England farm, this property feels secluded and private but is centrally located in Suffield, CT. Our house was built in 1830 and was the original farm manager’s residence. My partner and I are working on restoring it. In a former life, I owned a hostel with shared bunk and private cabin accomodation in the North Cascades of Washington State. I love hosting guests of all kinds and from all places! We are located just minutes from Agawam MA, The Big E, Six Flags New England, Springfield MA, MGM Casino, Enfield, CT, Suffield Academy, and Bradley International Airport. We are about 35 minutes to Hartford, CT. We have a huge backyard with two spots for RVs or camper vans that have self contained toilet facilities : -Biscuit's Back Bay: Lower backyard- requires driving down a hill to flat pad to park and then up the hill to depart -Mapleton Ridge: Upper section of backyard before the hill We are working on building an outhouse to accommodate tent and car campers. In the meantime you are welcome to #1 in the woods, but #2 will have to wait until you are at a local restaurant or other venue! We look forward to hosting you!

Island in the Woods Retreat Welcome to the “Island in the Woods” Retreat. The land has been mindfully curated to be a tranquil getaway for your mental health and wellbeing. Our home is located in a quiet neighborhood at the end of a cul de sac. At the end of the back yard, a bridge takes you to our “island in the woods,” which is surrounded on most sides by a stream. There are beautiful walking trails, stone steps, fireplaces, and various areas to dip into the river. Note that this is an alcohol-free property, so if you want to drink while camping, please go elsewhere. This is a place to keep the mind open and receive the beautiful medicine of this land. There are a couple different places to camp. If you wish to have the entire island to yourself, please rent out both sites. If you are using the land for any special type of journey ✨🤯🐸… please let us know. We can offer additional support or services at additional fees. We can offer sound baths with gongs, bowls, etc., and other therapeutic guidance to make your journey as magical and expansive as can be. Set and setting🍄. One site is located just over the bridge and next to the fruit orchard and has a fire pit. Please do not take any fruit from the orchard. We are lucky if we even get any after the deer take what they want! The other site is by the stream and has a firepit as well. This is the most private location and is pretty deep into the woods. It is serene. Bathroom: up at the house, our private practice has a sliding glass door on the deck you can go through to use flush toilet and shower. This area is separate from the rest of the house. - Bring your own tent and supplies - Plenty of places to order food out from if you want delivery - Please COMPLETELY clean up after yourself - Bring your own firewood, or chop some from trees that are already down on the property.
