Sacred Nectar Sanctuary

North Sandwich, NH · 14 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Simply the best tenting you can find in the White Mountains. The campground to get away from campgrounds, where magic touches every corner. Sacred Nectar rests on the land of the Wabanaki Tribes. This land, now known by it's view gifting fields, is one of Sandwich's top treasured gems. The Historic Farm was purchased by Townsend Thorndike from the first colonizing family to claim ownership of this unceded land, the McCrillis family. It was Town's place to get away from the busy life. As time went on and his money dwindled and plans to sell off some of the land arose. Townsend's son, Nick, foresaw a devastating development of conventional homes that would diminish the soul of this sacred land that held so much magic. So, Nick decided to move back to the homestead to create an example of what a healthy life for the land and its inhabitants looks like. HipCamp was the first step towards sharing and opening up the land to create an Intentional lifestyle. One in which we hope to share our way of being that brings awareness to the natural world we have fallen so far from. Nick and his tribe of like minds are creating a holistic, educational, retreat, workshop, and event center where people can come to learn how to co-exist in a harmonious relationship with nature and each other. Thank you for being a part of the healing. We hope you enjoy what we have created here :)

The Wolf Swamp is off the beaten path, it was named by the Pony Express Riders who traveled the Trails from the Canterbury Railroad Station to the Northfield Station. They reported many Wolf sitings in The Swamp over the years and the name stuck. We are located on 52 acres with amazing views, trails and beautiful Beaver Ponds. Although we are about a mile out in the woods, w are 10 minutes from everything, shopping, restaurants, local attractions which include local farm stands, places to swim, fish, kayak and the Merrimack River.

Lempster, NH · 1 site
We are excited to offer this amazing tipi camping experience on our working horse property. The tipi design is the basic Sioux design; the makers of our tipi were chosen to provide all the tipis for the movie Dances with Wolves because of their respect for authenticity and excellent craftsmanship. The tipi is 18' W x 15' H. Inside, it is roughly 16' in diameter and 13'2" high. It has a 6' entrance with a zippered door and mosquito mesh. There is mosquito netting around the top smoke flaps and a critter guard mesh that covers the bottom circumference where the tipi and floor meet. To keep things warm on those chilly nights or take the edge off the crisp morning air, there is a small wood pellet stove inside. There is a queen-size futon and plenty of space to sleep on the floor with your own sleeping bags or cots. The maximum occupancy is 6 people. The campsite setup is a mixture of Indigenous and Cowboy Western culture. It features a dining area close to the tipi with a picnic table. You can relax at the fire pit area beside the Kampfire Cauldron (handmade on-site!) and enjoy cookouts, campfires, and great conversations with friends and family while listening to the calm waters of Giles Brook a few feet away. Firewood is included in your stay. An outhouse is also located nearby, so you don’t have to entirely "rough it." Potable water can be provided if you do not bring your own. Local activities include: hiking trails, parks, lakes, horseback rides, kayaking, fishing, motorsports, relaxing by the creek on-site, axe throwing, range, skiing/tubing, and so much more!

Charlestown, NH · 2 sites · Tents, RVs
Sweet Song Acres is 100+ acres of secluded forest nestled along the Little Sugar River, at the base of Perry Mountain. Located in rural Unity, NH and Charlestown, NH, just across the Vermont state line. Southernmost point, located in Charlestown is one of two campsites. The other is Shady Grove, located in Unity. The two sites, located in bordering towns share the same entrance and are connected by a 1/4 mile trail. Both are very large sites. Campers would drive to both sites down a trail so we highly recommend a vehicle with decent clearance and 4WD or AWD. Southernmost Point is a fully drive-in site. Shady Grove campers park above the site and the campsite is down a short path, just a few hundred feet or so. The property consists of varied terrain of rock ledges, lush moss, streams, and panoramic views at the summit. There are many options of local outdoor activities in the area or if you prefer, just sit and "listen to the river sing sweet songs to rock your soul".

Wolfeboro, NH · 1 site
Immerse yourself in a century old Hemlock and Beech forest overlooking a spring fed mountain brook as it cascades around granite boulders. The biodiversity here is thriving and some of the trees are as old as the country. The site is set up to be easy from the minute you pull in. We have a single, private site- it's wide, level, scratch-free, with a granite firepit, firewood for purchase on site, a fast dry double hammock, a live edge picnic table, screaming WiFi, a kid friendly target game, no limitations on generator use and a mile of private trails. The firepit is a stunning spot to settle in on the Adirondack chairs and enjoy a crackling fire tucked in the towering trees and moss. The sound of the brook Is an ASMR dream and you may see a heron, a bald eagle or a mink who are regular visitors. While you’ll feel miles from civilization, our high-speed WiFi allows for seamless remote work, stargazing with a soundtrack or streaming your favorite shows on a rainy day. New for 2026, we have doubled our private trail system! The trails on either side of the brook wander through both sides of our property to secluded spots where you can see the remains of a beaver lodge and dam (currently between occupants). Our game cameras regularly capture porcupines, bobcats, owls, herons, otters, eagles, and just about every eastern woodland animal and bird you can imagine. This spring there is a bald eagle who fishes in front of the cabin most days. We are Brad and Christine and we live further up the driveway in our solar-powered log cabin. While you may catch glimpses of the red cabin or solar array through the trees, we honor your privacy while being nearby in case you need something. We don't overlook the site directly, and you can't see us beyond the occasional glimpse or on the trails passing closer to the buildings. We drive down the driveway past the site if we are leaving or returning home, which we minimize when we have guests. We are located two miles down a gravel road, 2 miles off Rt. 16, you are 15 minutes from groceries, pharmacies, EV charging, gas, and a local campground who can arrange for you to dump your tanks. We are in East Wolfeboro, a half hour drive to Downtown. Historic Portsmouth, NH and the Maine coast are an hour away.

Bartlett, NH · 1 site · Tent, RV
A stunning setting for my rescue animals and I, I found this property in 1996. It has a large barn where my pot-bellied pigs sleep. In the early Bartlett, NH days, it was part of a 40-acre spread owned by one of the oldest families around here, the Garlands. Enjoy 2 peaceful acres along the beautiful Saco River, featuring a mix of wooded privacy and open field space for tents or small campers. There's NO access to drive down to the river but parking by the house is plentiful and walking down is OK. It HAS grown up and the main body of the river will require water shoes to walk to as it is very rocky. Depth depends on rain and time of year. The fire pit is by the house. Feel free to avail yourselves of it and there's wood and kindling. Unwind in a quiet natural setting with plenty of room to spread out. Perfect for a peaceful getaway or a basecamp for outdoor adventure. You can also check out Alpine Garden Camping Village & Winery across the street!
