Island in the Woods Retreat Welcome to the “Island in the Woods” Retreat. The land has been mindfully curated to be a tranquil getaway for your mental health and wellbeing. Our home is located in a quiet neighborhood at the end of a cul de sac. At the end of the back yard, a bridge takes you to our “island in the woods,” which is surrounded on most sides by a stream. There are beautiful walking trails, stone steps, fireplaces, and various areas to dip into the river. Note that this is an alcohol-free property, so if you want to drink while camping, please go elsewhere. This is a place to keep the mind open and receive the beautiful medicine of this land. There are a couple different places to camp. If you wish to have the entire island to yourself, please rent out both sites. If you are using the land for any special type of journey ✨🤯🐸… please let us know. We can offer additional support or services at additional fees. We can offer sound baths with gongs, bowls, etc., and other therapeutic guidance to make your journey as magical and expansive as can be. Set and setting🍄. One site is located just over the bridge and next to the fruit orchard and has a fire pit. Please do not take any fruit from the orchard. We are lucky if we even get any after the deer take what they want! The other site is by the stream and has a firepit as well. This is the most private location and is pretty deep into the woods. It is serene. Bathroom: up at the house, our private practice has a sliding glass door on the deck you can go through to use flush toilet and shower. This area is separate from the rest of the house. - Bring your own tent and supplies - Plenty of places to order food out from if you want delivery - Please COMPLETELY clean up after yourself - Bring your own firewood, or chop some from trees that are already down on the property.

Truly an enchanting experience. Felt like we were in a tropical rain forest. My friends, dog, and I had a beautiful time camping: the nature sounds, the wonderful hosts, the landscape, and the perfect location was such a gift. There are a lot of mosquitoes and deer flies given it’s summer time in MA so just make sure to bring lots of bug spray, but James even had a mosquito net tent that really helped the camping experience to be bite free. Would definitely recommend to anyone camping solo or in a group, the river is a beautiful way to wake up in the morning and start a fire for a warm cup of coffee. Definitely give this experience a 10/10!

Great location! Very isolated place on the island next to a beautiful stream, lots of space for a tent and a nice fire. James' house is a bit of a walk up the hill from the site but not too far and you get access to his bathroom and shower. Overall, a very serene experience, I would recommend staying here!

I stayed there for two night with my son and brother. The campsite space was private and serene. And although I aspire to be a camper- as I love sleeping and waking outside, the touches of civilization were great. The inside shower and toilet- along with the location being close to many restaurants helped make this experienced perfect.
