2 nights at Fairview Farms Airfield
Our time in the treehouse was magical. It was my 13 year old son and I. He is 6’1” and he was able to comfortably sleep in the loft. Bill and everyone at Fairview Farms was welcoming, friendly and helpful. The stargazing was phenomenal; I highly recommend a dip in the hot tub under the stars. I would recommend bringing a heated blanket in the colder months. I brought ours and it was the perfect mix of cold and snuggly warm. There is a heater that works like a charm, with the blanket we only used it during the day.

This is a glorious, pristine farm w/ complete privacy & seclusion. I was the ONLY camper during my 2 nite stay. Peggy came out of her house to kindly greet me, then left me alone to pick anywhere on her 8 acres i wanted to set up. Nothing was off limits. Was in a yurt w/ 2 dogs they ran around like they owned the place. She was always avail however. Just a text, phone call away or even a holler up the hill. She had a huge burn pile ready for me to use but it was too windy & I set my tent up too close-so no campfire-boo my bad! Property consists mostly corn fields, a lovely pond, a barn & hog house. Lots of green mowed grass. Not totally level (somewhat hilly) but flat enough to set up camp. Lovely willow, maple, locust & walnut trees. The sun set over the pond in a blaze of color. Barn swallows graze the pond & a ground hogs munch dinner. Deer if you're lucky. Bring binoculars! There were ZERO mosquitos. I loved that Peggy was attune to my needs & happy to help without being nosy/overbearing. I felt a real kinship as she runs the place by herself & it's absolutely perfect. She's the real deal-a true blue hard-working farm woman. Empty Cupboard Farm is only a few minutes from all the shopping you'll need but private enough you can't hear a sound at night but cows, owls & crickets. At the top of farm is the infamous Red Door & tons of chestnuts to roast. Its very easy to find, very easy access in. Run, dont walk to EMPTY Cupboard Farm for a FULL renewing spiritual experience.

We had such a great time here! There was 7 adults, 1 baby, and 4 dogs and we had plenty of space!! Gorgeous in the fall, and they had plenty of firewood for us to use. I recommend this place and we hope to come back! You do hear the raceway noise but it’s not a big deal and it’s nice and quiet overnight!

Bill and Erin were so helpful and friendly; you can tell they love creating a great experience for their guests. Give Yeti another hug for me when you see that giant white dog guarding the goat; he is the true g.o.a.t. Lol.
The tree house is amazing. It's exactly the type of club house my husband and I wanted as kids. The loft and ladder are super sturdy; I'm over 300 pounds with a bum knee and still shimmied up into the loft to sleep on the comfy queen mattress. We stayed in last September when it was like in the 70s during the day but 50s at night, and we never felt cold in the loft. Pro-tip: the light and ceiling fan in the first floor has a remote, so don't use the light switch.
Outside, under the house, is a little outdoor kitchen area with a propane griddle. That thing was so convenient. We had fresh eggs from the chickens on the property and pancakes in the morning with minimal fuss. It was such a relief after a day exploring the outdoors to just ignite that griddle for hamburgers and hot dogs instead of using my camp stove or the grate over the campfire. The fire pit did have a grate if you prefer to grill over an open flame, so options!
My favorite part was nighttime. Everyone was super respectful of noise policy, so with the exterior lights off, it was us, the insects, the night birds, at least one coyote, and the stars. Pure magic.

Our stay at the farm was a perfect peaceful getaway. The cozy treehouse was charming and comfortable, nestled in a great location near a state park within walking distance. Watching the beautiful sunset from the ridge was a highlight—absolutely breathtaking. The hosts were accommodating, with a sunset hayride, firewood and tomatoes from the garden, making the experience even more enjoyable.

What wonderful place to spend some time in nature. We loved our stay in the treehouse. There is a fire pit just outside and we made dinner over the fire while enjoying all of the gorgeous views of the farm. The bed in the loft was cozy and there was plenty of space in the tree house for us and our medium size pup. A friend camped in a tent below with his doggo too. Thanks to Bill for taking us on a ride to see everything! The goats, chickens, ducks, and vintage plane gave us plenty to do and look at. Can’t wait to come back again this fall!

Perfect getaway for family with young kids. Level mulched areas for tents, portopotty on site, large chunks of fire wood provided, and trashcan. Pond was fun to fish in. Cows were fun to see right next to camp.

Beautiful, peaceful, and unique spot. The treehouse is pretty cool. Definitely need to be able to climb a ladder if you want to sleep in the bed. Animals are super friendly. I didn’t get a chance to meet Erin, but Bill was very kind. He gave us a tour of the property and its history.
Highly recommend.

I went with my grandson who loved the treehouse. There was plenty of space on the 66 acres. Bill and Erin‘s hospitality was superb. The treehouse was clean. The weather was hot, but Bill and Erin had many fans to help us keep cool. The view from the top of the hill was beautiful. Sunsets were gorgeous.

The Treehouse stay at Fairview Farm was absolutely amazing. Instructions and directions about how to get on the property were very clear and easy to follow, we found our treehouse abode to be very easy to locate on the property as well. It was absolutely pleasant to be settled in between the chicken pen and the goat, and Cow pen. Carrie, the guard dog for the chickens does her job very well, and Yeti and guard dog for the goats and cows was SUPER friendly, definitely advise giving him pets when you pet the goats. Erin and Bill were very accommodating and answered all messages and questions I had, provided us seasoned DRY wood for starting fires, and farm fresh laid eggsfrom our chicken neighbors. The Treehouse in itself is small, cozy, comfortable and quaint. The hosts house is within view, but the trees and pine groves around the house make it very private. The treehouse stayed better cool in the day, due to the nice cross breeze and the 2 fans in there that are very helpful to keep the heat down, and kept it nice and cozy temperatures at night. Me and my boyfriend will definitely be back.

Absolutely peaceful place to stay. We camped for over a week in our rooftop tent and really wanted a place to unwind before going home, and not needing to setup/dismantle our tent. This was perfect. Quiet. Not too far off the beaten path and the bathroom was a bonus! The tree house itself was very roomy for the size and certainly felt private enough enough though the tree house itself seemed to be the center of attention on the property

This camping experience was magical. A treehouse that was camping but had everything you could possibly need. The bathroom was clean and close. Bill and Erin were available whenever I needed them but respected privacy. It was a perfect mix of camping with luxury.
