Voted in the Top 3 in Vermont State by Hip Camp reviews since 2022
6 Sites are on Sunrise Farms 75 acre Conservation land with 50 mile view for Sites 1 and 2. Very quiet area with lots of wildlife and ponds and disc golf. Very quiet with great swimming and lots of hikes right from your sites.
2 of the Brookside Sites (Wishbone Left and Right) are close by (2.7 miles) where we have another 1/2 mile of river frontage and can handle bigger groups as Conservation land on Sunrise Farm only allows 4 campers per site.
Sunrise Farm Sites 1 and 2 have oodles of space and Spectacular 50 mile views of Mount Monadnock with no house lights out there in the evening except the party string lights we provide.
Site 1 (with entrance 70 yards south of the farmhouse) is best for camping in with up to 20 foot trailers or multiple tents …on the large flat spaces in the 25 acre field to choose from.
Great Well water available near farmhouse. Biodegradable soaps Only if used in the ponds. Double Olympic sized Swim Pond we stock with Rainbow Trout to keep clear.
We have been advised Not to allow imported firewood (can import Wood Beetle dangerous for our forest).
- PLEASE use the Firewood bundle tubs we provide ($12.50) - pick up at the farmhouse or pull wood from the woods (and make it safer for use).
Beautiful and plenty of wildlife nearby... as well as Outhouses are marked on Map we provide with solar lights marking them at night. Do Not Leave food out when camping or away from site. Bears are rarely seen but it is wild country. Sites have locking garbage lids.
Unique and lovely as well as being next to trails and roads to miles of remote spots with very few if any ... people.
In Winter we request only AWD vehicles go down to this site or park up by farmhouse and hike in so you can easily get out. When wet park up by the road if you have 2 wheel drive.
Always WISE to arrive When LIGHT out as we do not live at the site and are not able to show guests to their sites as a result.

Wilmington, VT · 3 sites
With the main house built in the 1830s this property has seen many uses such as a farm, retail Christmas store, church, rental cabins, and a gravel quarry among other things. I now try to keep the back acreage by the brook and pond as natural as possible for habitat, as well as you the campers!
Learn more about this land:
I have 3 well spaced out RV sites on the property. They fit different sized rigs so please read the descriptions. The Pond site is significantly larger and can hold multiple vehicles and tents or trailers (please add this in the extras if you will be having multiple vehicles or trailers). Pets are welcome at the sites, but please have them remain leashed or under your effective verbal control. Most will have cell service at the sites or there is a free public Wi-Fi in Wilmington center. Private yet convenient to Downtown Wilmington, VT. Located between the Harriman reservoir and Lake Raponda, both great for boating, fishing and swimming. As well as the Deerfield River across the street, which runs through town. There is a public hiking trail that goes through the property. It goes from the Fairview ave. boat launch in Wilmington, all the way up to West Dover. You can access this at the back of the site. The sites are only a minutes drive from downtown Wilmington, or you can hike/bike there on the trail (approx 15 min). In Wilmington there is plenty of shopping, gifts, coffee, restaurants, laundry, gas, liquor store/ dispensary, electric car chargers, etc. I have dry, split firewood available for $5 on site. Please don't bring your own wood unless it is dryed and prepackaged from a retail store or bought from one of the local sellers right around me. Transportation of out of state firewood can bring invasive beetles to our forests...if you need anything else feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to steer you in the right direction.

Guilford, VT · 6 sites · Tents, RVs
Thank you for a great 2025 season, as our 6th season closes, we still maintain a few sites for late Fall/early Winter (tent & van/camper sites)! Enjoy the Vermont Countryside year round.
Our farm is nestled along a country road between several other farms, mostly horses and a special needs/therapy farm, we are hobby farmers/homesteaders. We have three sites open anytime, during camping season (depending on weather), either all three tent camping sites or a mix of one or two for camper vans & small trailers (into late Fall/early Winter). If there is any question please ask, we can modify the schedule but are only able to accommodate three sites at any given time. Thanks and PLEASE email if you have any questions!
The Guilford Fairgrounds is less than 1/4 mile away and has many hiking and biking trails.
The land was originally part of a colonial Glebe Trust with the Church of England and divided up, the original 100+ year farmhouse and barn can be seen from many of the campsites.
Guilford, Vermont is located in the southeast of Windham County, resting along the Massachusetts border to the south and New Hampshire not far to the east. A community with a long and interesting history, Guilford was actually Vermont’s largest town as long ago as 1790. Now, with a population of about 2,100, its by no means considered a large community yet with its beautiful old covered bridges, churches, and one-room schoolhouse, Guilford maintains an unmistakable sense of history while at the same time having a reputation as one of the truly unique small communities in southern Vermont.
Guilford has some of the most quintessential small town landmarks in all of Vermont. Sites like the Christ Church, Broad Brook House, and Guilford Center Meeting House were all built in the early 19th Century and are now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. These buildings are found in what is considered the historic Center; shop for great local products at the Guilford Country Store, visit the charming Free Library, or even see some of the exhibits at the Historical Society Museum to learn more about the area and its history.
Beyond the town center, venturing through the rest of Guilford will enable you to see the beautiful Vermont landscape.

West Burke, VT · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
We operate a small working farm on our 50 acre property. Approximately 7 acres is cleared fields where we grow hemp, pigs and chickens. We are at the end of a dirt road with private access and stunning views of the surrounding mountains. If you decide to stay with us we can guarantee you your own private tent site to get away from it all, or a beautiful spot to park your van, car or small camper, all while still being only 10 minutes to the amenities of town, 15 minutes to world famous mountain biking at Kingdom Trails, or 20 minutes to breathtaking Lake Willoughby.
Learn more about this land:
We have two private tent platforms located in a mature mixed hardwood forest on our 50 acre property, as well as one van/small camper/car camping site located on the edge of our field.
Each tent platform site includes an elevated and level 10'x12' cedar tent platform, a picnic table, and more privacy than the car camping site. Parking is less than a 1 minute walk from the platforms down a well maintained woods road and gorilla carts are available to help haul your gear.
Many guests who wish to stay right next to their cars choose to car camp on the edge of the field in the car camping site, either pitching a tent or spending the night in their small camper. The views from this site are breathtaking, but it has less privacy as it is located next to the communal firepit, and amidst our working farm so we will occasionally be around doing chores, (the chickens and pigs are early risers).
The communal fire pit has a great view and a few chairs are provided. Seasoned firewood is available for purchase, and we ask that you please do not harvest or burn your own wood off the property. Potable drinking water and a portable toilet are also available onsite for our guests. Well behaved pets are welcome, but must remain on a leash to ensure they do not disturb our plants or farm animals. We are at the dead end of a gravel road and can guarantee complete privacy and seclusion if you are looking to get away from it all, yet still be located conveniently within 10 minutes of Lyndonville, 15 minutes to Kingdom Trails and East Burke, 20 minutes to Lake Willoughby, and at the doorstep to the beautiful wilderness of Vermont's Northeast Kingdom!

Exceeded our expectations!
We arrived on a hot summer day
And immediately jumped into the swimming pond which isn’t large but deep enough to be over your head quickly, and with a great view of the mountains
Tami was an excellent host, providing us fresh, drinking water,and she gave us permission to pick raspberries to eat with our breakfast.

This was a fantastic spot. Gorgeous views and tons of space to spread out and camp. Had no problem getting up the road, which was steep with some loose gravel but no ruts. Any AWD car with 8” clearance (crosstrek or bigger) should be completely fine getting up. Instructions were clear and host was responsive. Pond was fun for dogs and some of us humans took a dip/floated. Recommend bringing a tent/tarp for shade as it is very exposed, which means lots of sun and amazing stars.

This little spot has the most epic view of Camel’s Hump! I was in love for the short time I stayed. Tami was super accommodating on short notice when I couldn’t find a place to stay on a busy Friday night during my Vermont road trip. Yes, it is in her backyard but it is elevated above the rest of the yard and feels quite private, with a barrier of greenery on both sides. The neighbors are quite a ways away. I hope to come back soon!

I had a really nice chat with Tami when I arrived. The site was flat, shady in the afternoon, and private. The view was amazing, and it was dark and mostly quiet after sunset. There's a road nearby, but it's not used much and the lights from the cars don't make it through the trees. Easy to access in a Honda Fit. I had a very relaxing time and beat the extreme heat of that weekend sitting in the shade.
A meadow and some trees obscured the view from Tami's house, a neighbor's house, and the road, so it might be less private in winter and early spring when the plants are hibernating.

We had a magical stay at Fieldstone Farm. This site and the hosts provide everything you could need; cooking materials and utensils, camp chairs, and even board games for a cozy night in. The location is beautiful and it is very easy to access the lake via short drive. We loved waking up to loon calls. Thanks for a great stay.

Site was exactly as described. Having a platform for my tent was really helpful as the site was on a hill and it rained quite a bit. Campsite was easy to find with host’s directions. It’s rural but it’s not far out from civilization regular noises like dogs, barking, and tractors and equipment happening, but that is to be expected as it is a working farm. I used it as a over and got back on the road at dawn so I didn’t really interact or linger, so I would say it’s a really good layover spot.

We chose this site for a few reasons, with the views being at the top of the list — and they absolutely did not disappoint! We also loved that it was a single, private site where our two pups could run free. We don’t have much of a yard at home, so it was so nice to see them having so much fun.
Kathy and Tim were wonderful hosts. They greeted us when we arrived and even gifted us a dozen farm-fresh eggs, which were delicious! The site itself had plenty of space and was very well set up. We really appreciated the outhouse and outdoor shower, both of which were well maintained.
We also loved that we could have come with the bare minimum and still had everything we needed. The site had plenty of chairs, a hammock, a picnic table, and a mini kitchen setup that worked perfectly for our portable grill.
Plenty to do nearby too! We found a few spots off the side of the river in the area to set up a few towels and spend the day swimming.
Overall, this was a 10/10 experience, and we will definitely be back!
