Amazing spot!
I have stayed at quite a few hipcamp spots and this is by far my favorite. The hosts were great and their land was amazing. We got to play with their goats and even bottle feed the baby ones. It was such a nice escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. We will definitely be back!

Tractor 🚜 cake is the best.
Snow white Sanctuary was wonderful. We came on Thanksgiving day and was welcomed to break bread with the host and their other guests. There are decent amount of animals but not zoo population and they were all friendly and mild tempered. Didnt know until after the trip my husband was afraid of horses. He survived. They have boats and paddle boards to use on the pond. They are dog friendly site. And perfect for kids of all ages. They also have wwoofing opportunities. Alyssa and Ocean are great and warm hearted people with a truly wonderful space.

If you love rescue animals this is the place for you!!! It was so cool to be outside with the horses, dogs, a cat and a pig walking around us. To wake up in the morning and behold 2 white horse 10 feet from me was surreal! Thanks for an awesome nights sleep!

I was looking for somewhere new to take our Scout Troop.Since it was Thanksgiving break I wanted something close. Google brought me to Hip camp and Snow White Sanctuary. This place sounded amazing. I called Alyssa to see if they could accommodate tent camping with the Scouts. She said there was no problem. From the minute I entered the gates it was heaven. Mr.Ocean and Miss Alyssa greeted us. They were just as lovely as they were on the phone.The Scouts were so excited to see animals roaming around. The property sits on 24 wooded acres. There are ponds with ducks, a goat island, stables with horses, and the most adorable porch pig named Tractor cake. The two Pyrenees/Anatolian shepherds guard the 24 acres and its inhabitants. My scouts just loved those dogs.I cannot forget about all the other animals, peacocks ,pigeons, chickens and so many more. Mr.Ocean and Miss Alyssa answered all the questions about their animals. The scouts were able to learn about milking the goats and their care, they were able to bottle feed the baby goats.The owners went above and beyond taught the scouts how to make chocolate and vanilla ice cream from goats milk! They loved it. There were other campers we met and shared a fire and s'mores with. The next day we helped Mr.Ocean plant grass and clear hiking trails. Even with all the work and fun, my scouts did not want to leave. We are definitely coming back. I would highly recommend this place. It is a lovely little farm/sanctuary.

The people and animals were all so friendly and made the experience very fun. The dogs would pop by our spot to say hi and horses would roam by daily! We chose a spot by the pond that felt very private and restful.
