We had everything we needed at the site! David was really kind and communicative, everything was really straightforward. If you need a place to stay in the Northampton area - I highly recommend this spot!

David's "Backyard near college town" was my first Hipcamp experience, and he definitely made me a fan! David is very thoughtful about the setup as well as in his manner, throughout. Absolutely no negatives! Thank you, David!
Please respect his place and him.:)

David was helpful and easy to communicate with! We booked for friends who were coming to the area, went and set up tents, but because of rain we didn't end up camping. Easy to find, the space is lovely and as advertised, there's a bathroom to use, a screened in porch, a nice green space backyard. David was very kind.

David has a very nice camping area in his yard. I was on my own but he has a great seating area around the fire pit that could accommodate a family. There was also plenty of wood for the fire.
You also have access to a three season room with outlets for charging as well as a nice bathroom with shower and access to laundry (which I used during my last stay).
This was my second stay here and would gladly stay again!
Additionally, you’re only a few blocks from Northampton’s excellent bike trail system.

Backyard camping near college town
David’s backyard campsite is in a residential area not far from downtown Northampton, and the trees that surround it make it feel private. The fire pit is an added bonus!

Dave was a great host! He had an awesome backyard for camping with access to a private bathroom. He met us upon arrival and explained everything we would need to know for our stay. Highly recommend to anyone staying in the area.

I really enjoyed camping here! The backyard is thoughtfully laid out and the bathroom is clean and tidy. David is a friendly, welcoming host and I felt right at ease. This is a great home base for exploring the area - a beautiful part of the state.

We had a wonderful stay! This site is in an excellent location, within walking distance to town and Look Park. The backyard site was well stocked with everything you'd need for a relaxing night out. David was so welcoming and helpful! We plan to return whenever we're in the area. Thanks David!

Backyard camping near college town
Our favorite HipCamp stay yet! David was so welcoming and the set up was perfect. Plenty of space, flat ground, a fire pit, access to an indoor bathroom. Couldn’t have asked for a better host or place to camp!

Great location, great communication, great amenities for a sweet little spot to economically visit the five college area. It was nice to be able to build a little fire to enjoy in the evening. Thank you, David!

David was extremely friendly and welcoming! Provided firewood for us which allowed us to have a fire 2 nights! We also were close to the hikes we wanted to do and breweries we wanted to try! Great place to stay, highly recommend :)

David was a great host. Gave me the entire backyard and already had a campfire setup for me. The yard was flat and I had no problem finding a good place for my tent.
He offered me use of the grill but I didn’t need it. I did make great use of the private bathroom and shower and he let me use the laundry which was exceptionally helpful.
The house is pretty close to Northampton’s extensive bike trail network, which was helpful as I stayed here while on a solo bike tour. I will absolutely consider staying here again if I’m looking to camp in the area.

Dave was so welcoming and flexible with our check in time. He had the wood in the fireplace all set up which was such a sweet touch. The fenced backyard gave us ease of mind for our dog to roam around and having access to a toilet and shower in the basement was awesome!
We loved the location! It was less than a 10 minute drive to Northampton.
He is a wonderful host!
