The very best thing about our night here was the loaf of fresh sourdough bread we preordered. Delicious!! Exceptional flavor and texture. The site was great too. Very private, level enough we didn’t need leveling blocks for our van. Beautiful spot.

We loved camping on John's unique property! It is situated at the end of an unpaved road but we had no problem with our 24' motorhome and tow vehicle. We unhooked the tow and maneuvered into a fairly level spot adjacent to the fire pit. We enjoyed a very private and peaceful evening and the fall foliage was gorgeous! Thank you John

It was a great place to relax. Very private. Host was most accommodating. Hope to return when weather is better.

This oasis offers everything we were looking for in a remote off the grid spot, which is our favorite kind of camping. Ultimate privacy and beautiful location. It was easy to find and offered ample space to park our truck and camper, set out chairs, set up a table, pull out our awning, and then some. It was a pleasure to stroll the property and served as a great location to visit the surrounding area or just sit back and relax! I loved listening to the barred owl that visited the area each night.

The blueberry orchard was wonderful! John was great to work with. We loved being able to order firewood, which was left right at the site for us. The location was peaceful and serene. We’d definitely recommend it!

A very serene and lush setting. Sounds of nature are soothing and relaxing. A quiet and restorative weekend in the country with a host who cares about his guests and will go above and beyond for.them.

Blueberry Orchard By The Pond
We had the greatest time with our two young kids and dog at this site. We enjoyed hunting for blueberries and walking around the pond…we spotted turtles and even a porcupine! The spot we found to set up camp was very close to level and perfectly shady. It was so quiet and serene. We highly recommend opting for John’s sourdough and fresh eggs which really added to the experience. The loaf was still warm when we arrived! Amazing star gazing too …it was best and we would love to come back!

came at the beginning of august - this is a beautiful secluded spot with the sweet smell of fermenting blueberries all around. we tried John’s sourdough & the local honey combo based on previous reviews & we did not regret it! lots of great hiking in the area, highly recommend the keystone arches for some good swim spots :)

This property is amazing and so BEAUTIFUL! Booked a random night because I woke up feeling the need to connect to nature and that’s EXACTLY what I did. So peaceful and quiet. Highly recommend 💚

Absolute serenity at the Blueberry orchard. Total peace and quiet off the beaten path where all you hear is bird song and the breeze in the trees. The camp is clean, cozy, and offers plenty of shade for an afternoon nap! We added the sourdough loaf and jar of honey, we recommend you do as well because it is out of this world. You are a short drive to a cute town and wonderful diner Carms. Parking a camper along the stone wall proved to be very level almost as flat as a graded pad. We can't recommend enough and we will be back!

Blueberry Orchard By The Pond
This was by far one of my favorite Hip Camps to date. If you’re looking for peace and quiet this is it. I had rainy weather so my regular hikes were canceled, but there are so many paths and rural roads to walk on in the woods around there. It was so nice to just be able to walk in the woods , right from where I was camping. The host brought warm, freshly made sourdough bread just as I finished my set up. Delicious! It made great breakfast sandwiches all week with his chickens eggs. Great add ons. I got the honey for my friend and she absolutely loved it. Great communication. Cell service is iffy, which I enjoy- I was able to walk to the end of the road to pick up my messages and texts, along with looking up what the weather was going to do. The spot where you camp with a RV is close to the road, but I think I saw three cars the whole week I was there and the rocks and trees pretty much keep you private. I am very sensitive to noise, and this place really fit the bill for being quiet.

We had a wonderful stay at John’s blueberry Orchard. Incredibly private and quaint. The campsite is tucked back into the woods away from the road by the little pond and the Orchard and Sugar shack created a very sweet and romantic atmosphere. John was incredibly kind and responsive to messages and the coffee, honey, and sourdough bread or to die for. Absolutely no trouble with wildlife whatsoever. With 100% stay here again.

Beautiful property with a lovely little pond and fire pit next to it. A trillion stars in the sky at night. I even saw a deer as I entered the property. Very kind owner and he is very responsive to messages. Highly recommended.

We had a concerning encounter with a group of coyotes very close to our campsite. Then told by the owner I'd be paying more for a few items left behind due to unsafe conditions. I wouldn't recommend this site for children or families due to its unsafe nature and unkept conditions the owner isn't open about the very human friendly coyote population that approached the campsite we had one run right past my father and brother and then a few growling towards us so we were forced to sleep in our cars

Very interesting spot! We car camped by the small possibly abandoned cabin? The blueberry bushes were awesome to see. Since we were here in winter there was snow and it was dead quiet. The pond frozen over. Perfect spot if you want some peace and quiet.

Loved the privacy this site provided, even in the middle of winter with no foliage. Hiked at the frozen Glendale Falls that were only 15 minutes away.

What a beautiful place to be! Entirely isolated, the farm was gorgeous and peaceful; a perfect place to camp and get away from it all. And John was super nice and responsive!

I believe this is the 2nd time I’ve been asked to do a review since I extended my stay by a day. I’ll say I liked it so much that I stayed an extra day!

Very cute site! We were in our camper van by the road, but I wished we were tent camping because the pond site is SO secluded and beautiful. By the road you do get a little traffic and noise, one of the days we were there the neighbor across the street was doing some sort of loud logging or construction. But way quieter than any campground still, one of the best camping options in the area - and the sourdough and honey was a great extra touch!

This campsite is very nice and clean. It is quiet and tucked away in the woods right past all the blueberry bushes. We camped by the pond and it was perfect. There is lots of space for tents and all camping equipment. Very nice place to get away and camp in peace. Not to far driving distance is Dayville Canoe Launch Ramp if you have kayaks & Becket Quarry if you want to hike and swim. Last but not least i definitely recommend purchasing the bread and the honey. Delicious.

Gorgeous, quiet. John’s sourdough has the best crust I’ve ever tasted. We had an RV. Plenty of space and quiet. Would definitely go back!
