Champlain Valley Alpacas and Beef is a family farm owned and operated by the Foshay family since 1998. Our girls, Gracie and Olivia are grown now. Gracie is married to Jaron and they live in Glendale,AZ . Olivia and her husband Guthrie own and operate American Window Cleaning II. Our herd of alpacas once was shown successfully in the Eastern States, now mostly range on the farm, having sweet cria (babies), growing magnificent fiber and effortlessly entertaining throngs of wedding guests! Our beef herd, comprised of Black and Red Angus, Hereford and Belted Galways has fluxuated as the market and hay supplies demand. We have a vineyard of Marquette grapes that are so delicious, that we have to race the birds for them in the fall. Our land is quiet, off the beaten path, and brimming with beautiful views of mountains, hills, valleys with winding creeks. This property has seen years of agriculture as a sheep farm, dairy farm and a fence company. We are happy to share this land and our gentle creatures with you. Learn more about this land: We are a working Alpaca and Beef farm in Central Vermont. Our cottage is available in the spring, summer and fall to Airbnb guests. Recently we have added the winter season for the adventurous Clamping crowd. The cottage is very private, with alpacas nearby.

Amazing location with panoramic views of the Vermont Green Mountain range, this property adjoins a public 9 hole golf course. Located on over 260 private and secluded acres, property also has a 2 acre pond for swimming, paddling or just relaxing. There are several miles of maintained hiking trails meandering throughout the forest, ranging from an easy walk, to hilly and somewhat challenging. Many varieties of tent locations or places to park an RV, pop up, or car. This is considered a "Primitive camp site". There is no shower, toilet or electric available at this time, but well water can be had from our residence, via a hose spigot on the side of our home. This is our 3rd year of hosting, and due to the overwhelming popularity of having an abundance of privacy, we will continue to be only hosting one party at a time. Which means you'll get the privilege of not having to share your surroundings with anyone else! Your own private camp ground! We are hoping this all works out and intend to continuously improve amenities, activities and overall experience. We are hoping to provide an exceptional value and experience that will bring back repeat campers, that we can trust and build a rapport. We are looking forward to meeting you! There will be a picnic table, two Adirondack chairs, and a firepit on site, for your convenience. Firewood will be available on site as well, for additional fee. Please note, regarding directions to the site: Some maps, directions show our address as the town of Whitehall NY. This is also correct, as we are apparently on the border of the two towns and depending on the map, it can come up as Hampton, or Whitehall. As far as I know, it's the town of Hampton, but just in case...

Stellar view and lots of privacy from this high field. Great place for a tent or camper van. We enjoyed the firepit, cute outhouse and outdoor shower. And trails to explore in the woods. Hosts were welcoming and the gift of fresh eggs was a bonus!

A beautiful well maintained campsite. Kathy and Tim were very friendly and helpful. The eggs they gave us on arrival were delicious and there was plenty of firewood for us to burn on the cold October nights. Everything was immaculate and clean, especially the out house with some luxury touches. All the extra details show how much they care about their guests camping experience. The property was fun to explore as well as visiting all the animals on the farm. Easy to explore the area from their place, loved the small town general stores and local creameries. Look forward to visiting in warmer weather.

We loved camping on Kathy and Tim’s land! This place was beautiful, peaceful, lots of privacy, and felt like heaven! So much open sky, being surrounded by the mountains and sounds of nature. The night sky was absolutely spectacular! Perfect for those who are into astrophotography. We felt so welcomed and the amenities were super thoughtful. 100% will be back, we cannot wait!

Evan’s place was awesome! He was super nice and accommodating. The best part has to be the view. The camp spot is in a nice grass clearing, right above a beautiful field of wild flowers. The view of the mountains is amazing, and the stars even better at night! Dark sky area for sure. His friendly dog Reggie also came and checked on us a time or two and our older lab loved running around with him. I will say it can be a bit windy (You’re in the mountains), but not a deal breaker at all, just be prepared. 10/10 recommend if your looking for peace and quiet with too notch views!

Weekend Trip to Vast private oasis

Evans land is one of a kind. Peacful, tranquil, solitude, off the beaten path yet less than 7 mins to a grocery store if needed (Shaws in Poultney). The property is very well taken care of with a huge flat area(that the dogs ran over every square inch of) for you to claim your spot! Evan messaged us to see if we needed anything and how our stay was going. The table, chairs, and insanely heavy duty fire ring were perfect creature comforts at the end of each day. The trails are well marked and made for a great day hike. The pond is cleaner than most people's pools I know and they offered many floaty things to use at your convenience. Poultney (the small town down the road) also offers shopping and great food. The visit was a dream and we will 100% be booking here again in the future, stop scrolling and book this site, you won't regret it. PS. We had 4 bars of Verizon cell service at camp

What a beautiful space and view! We fortunately had perfect weather and my pups loved running around and exploring (and paddleboarding!). The hosts were so very kind and accommodating when I had forgotten to bring a canopy for shade.

Love this site and Kathy and Tim are wonderful hosts! It is super private, perfect for off leash dogs, super cute bathroom, 2 hanging sun showers perfect mid-afternoon, and the 360 view for star gazing is unbeatable. This was our 2nd visit and we are already wondering when we can go back.

The name says it all! Stunning views of the Green Mountains, we loved just relaxing and taking in the views. We pulled our travel trailer where we liked and there was no need to level it. It was all nice and flat. It was such a pleasure to let our dogs run and explore the trails and ponds. We didn’t partake in using the kayaks or paddleboat, but the hammock in the shade was my favorite spot. There is also a huge fire pit, and with the mountains and nighttime sky as a backdrop along with insects chirping, it was so peaceful. The charming town of Poultney is 5 minutes away and seems to have all the amenities. The hosts, Evan and Colleen, are very welcoming, accommodating and provided great communication from the moment we booked. Thank you for sharing this oasis.

Outstanding camp site !!! This Kathleen and Tim provided the most welcoming and private spot that was so quiet, full of wild life sounds and peace. Our dogs had the time of their lives running and not confined to their leashes! The views are incredible and we will be returning! 5 stars!!!!
