Bring your family & friends to camp at our quiet and very modest small farm. Located in backwoods horse pastures with chickens, a dog, and a couple of horses. The property is very spread out and there is an outhouse for all sites to us. Your pets are welcome too! Locally there are state parks with beaches, and state forest for trails and lakes, hiking and biking. Or you can just relax and enjoy the serenity! Other attractions include local farmers markets, Gilette's Castle, and the famous River Ferry crossing the Connecticut River with a vehicle across to East Haddam. We offer an hot H2O outdoor shower here for the comfort of out clients here. It is located on the back of main house in corner. See map in photos.

Park Your RV or Tent in our field!

Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I booked this last minute for a midweek adventure to explore the Mystic Seaport area. Mary and Victor were fabulous hosts! Since it was midweek we had the place you ourselves. Site 2 was perfect for my Tentrax tent camper and my daughters tent. Lots of room, quite and private. The firewood bundles are double what you'd buy elsewhere and it's quality hardwood and needs very little kindling to get going. I will most definitely be beck and highly recommend!!!

Hidden Lake Woods Tent Campgrounds!

Bucolic Farm,

A lovely quiet place. The tenting field was level and peaceful. There was a good cell signal there too.

Petite Cozy Cabin

We loved staying here! We stayed for one night on a road trip from Maine to South Carolina, so didn’t stay long, but Mary was super hospitable and we loved meeting their horses!

Hidden Lake Woods Tent Campgrounds!

Close to dispersed :)

It was a gorgeous place to camp! The first night was busy with people camping for Labor Day Weekend - the space was well equipped with safe fire pits, wood for sale, and two outhouses stocked with TP and wipes. The second night was just us so we were able to use more space and stargaze in the field. Thanks so much for a fantastic place to stay!

Petite Cozy Cabin

Amazing place and people.

The cabin was great. It has two beds, which ai didn’t know. It was definitely cozy and the farm, animals and people in it were the best possible company! 100% recommended.

2nd time still got the charm

2nd time around was just as wonderful. The setting is so soothing, but the hosts' welcome is the best. We were welcomed with with open arms again. Loved seeing the baby chicks.
