This was my second time at the Sugar Shack and it did not disappoint! Marty was a gracious host as usual and the land is beautiful and well cared for. My siblings and I stargazed, had multiple fires using the ample supply of firewood, and enjoyed a few visits from Bluey the dog. On our second morning there, we got to see two hot air balloons launch from the field! It was awesome and Marty checked in with us beforehand to make sure it wouldn't disturb our camping. Highly recommend a visit!

Weekend Trip to cozy yurt in the woods

Went for a women’s trip, 4 of us. Normally we remote camp but wanted something easier. It’s glamping and was nice to have an indoor space for sleeping and one for cooking. The land is beautiful. Jill even let us use a shower in her barn as the solar shower wasn’t working. That was nice after long hikes! The outhouse is a bit of a walk from the yurt. The wood stove made it cozy as temps dropped to 40’s at night. Electricity made it very easy.

Weekend Trip to Clay Hill Corners Blueberry Farm

We had a great experience camping on this adorable blueberry farm! Our 1 year old French Bulldog, Bruno, perhaps had the best time of all, as he got to become BFFs with the hosts’ sweet dogs, Bluey and Ella. Our favorite moments were watching them run around our campsite and play for hours together. The sugar shack and the surrounding camp area were private and provided us with everything we could need - a cute little cabin, running water for the sink, solar shower, fire pit, charcoal grill, and trash/recycling receptacles. We really enjoyed how the site was out of sight from the main house but close enough to feel our hosts were at an arm’s length and nearby should we need anything. Marty was super welcoming and helpful, laid out all important instructions as well as ideas for fun outings and activities, both on their land and beyond it. With his help, we took off on a quiet 3 mile kayak trip down the Ottauquechee river where we saw bald eagles and blue herons. At the end, Marty picked us up with the kayaks to drop us back to camp, and even took the time to show us a few extra cool spots for fishing and canoeing. His expertise as a fishing and canoeing guide really shows! Their land is beautiful and serene, very quiet save for the sounds of nature around you. We got lucky to lounge back and watch the hot air balloons hover over the river and nearby the property both days of our trip! This was our first experience using HipCamp and it did not disappoint. Highly recommend!!

Property is great with a nice cozy cabin for indoor campers and a HUGE flat open field with bordering shade for tenters. Adjacent blueberry fields, close-by outhouse, solar shower and wash sink are great adds as is free firewood. Chairs and a charcoal grill with all supplies, and a hammock!. Best of all 2 gracious kind and thoughtful hosts in Carol and Marty who will engage you to ensure you have everything you need. Marty even provided a map to a secluded swimming hole in a forested stream that was absolutely delightful on a hot August day! He also lent me his trekking poles for its steep access trail. Carol offered a workspace setup for my daughter to get some last-minute work done so she could join us sooner! We all had a great time and will be back this place is at the top of our list!

My 2 teenage boys and I loved Alyson’s campsite! We had everything we needed. Alyson was also accommodating and gave us a couple extra sleeping bags. I could barely get my kids off the dock. They had so much fun fishing and caught some whoppers. I’m pretty certain my boys will make me go back again.

4 nights at cozy yurt in the woods

We had a good experience in the yurt! We did not meet Jill during our stay, but communication was easy. The outdoor shower was broken, but Jill kindly offered for us to use the shower in the barn which we appreciated. Despite the heat it was a bearable temperature to sleep inside the yurt. The added bonus of the fully equipped kitchen makes it feel like a luxurious camping experience. The yurt is a little bit cluttered, but we did not mind this. The kitchen did feel a bit sticky and dirty, so this could perhaps be approved upon. Parking next to the yurt was easy and convenient, and we appreciated Jill’s suggestions for where to eat in the towns nearby.

Staying at the sugar shack on Carol and Marty’s blueberry farm was unforgettable. Marty’s hospitality blew me away—he carved a path to the river so I could go paddle boarding and shared everything I needed to know about the property. Comfy bed, free firewood, hammock, and nature galore. Peaceful, wild, and perfectly welcoming. Highly recommend!

This was our second trip to the Sugar Shack and I hope we'll have many more. Carol and Marty are warm, friendly, and helpful. The sugar shack is beautifully located in a secluded corner in a field with wildflowers and blueberry bushes. We especially enjoyed the plentiful dry firewood on a chilly July morning. Marty also arranged a really fun point-to-point paddle down the White and Connecticut rivers which includes several bald eagle sightings. Their two dogs and one cat also add to the fun.
