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...

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...

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.

Camping near Fair Haven guide

Where to go

Lake Bomoseen

Under 15 minutes from Fair Haven, Bomoseen State Park is set on the shores of Vermont’s largest lake, Lake Bomoseen. The park offers camping, boating, and fishing, while hikers will find several forest trails, including one to nearby Half Moon Pond State Park. Campers can make reservations up to 11 months in advance.

Half Moon Pond State Park

Only 20 minutes from Fair Haven, Half Moon Pond State Park is situated on a quiet pond in the middle of dense woods near Bomoseen State Park. Motorized water boats are not allowed on the pond, making it ideal for paddlesports and fishing. In addition to 11 lean-tos and 52 campsites suitable for tents and medium-sized trailers, Half Moon Pond State Park also has five cabins and one cottage available for rent.

Green Mountain National Forest

In southwestern and central Vermont, just west of Fair Haven, the Green Mountain National Forest spans nearly 400,000 acres of green valleys, mountains, lakes, and streams. Parts of the Appalachian Trail run through the forest, and several national forest campgrounds offer quiet, scenic camping spots in the heart of the woods. Once the snow falls, the Green Mountain National Forest becomes a popular destination for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, and downhill skiing.

When to go

The best time to camp, hike, and boat at the state parks and national forest surrounding Fair Haven is from late May through September. The Bomoseen State Park campground is only open from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend, while the Half Moon Pond State Park campground stays open until the second Monday in October. Some Green Mountain National Forest campgrounds are open year-round. Fall is a popular time to visit Fair Haven, as leaves start changing in mid-September and often peak in early to mid-October.

Know before you go

  1. You can find grocery stores, restaurants, and most other visitor services in Fair Haven. 
  2. The Fair Haven Vermont Welcome Center is a great place to get trail maps and camping information, as well as a free cup of Green Mountain Coffee.
  3. Vermont state parks often have restrictions on where dogs are allowed. Pets are often not allowed on swimming beaches or in day-use areas, though leashed dogs are allowed in Green Mountain National Forest.
