Best HipCamp Massachusetts 2023 Best HipCamp USA Finalist 2023 Best HipCamp Massachusetts Finalist 2022 THERE IS WIFI, PRIVATE HOT SHOWER and FLUSH TOILET. EXCEPT FOR THE RECENTLY ADDED TULLY 'THOREAU' ISLAND. Salamander Hollow is a private, evolving honeybee and human being sanctuary on 17 acres of land abutting Massachusetts State Forest. We currently have a one-room, wood stove warmed, cozy sleeping loft for one or two - with two benches below on either side of room - for two sleeping bags; plus, a separate 22 foot Sioux tipi with two cots. There are two chairs in the tipi, which if removed at night, make floor room for four other sleeping bags. 'Forest Bathing' for miles! If you're a larger group booking Salamander Hollow main camp with its Sleeping Library, Tipi & Slovenian Beehive House, you might consider renting this additional Tiny Cabin want to entertain all in glamping style, utilizing its amenities; as well, providing another bathroom/shower and guest bedroom for those who prefer being indoors while in the great outdoors. Note that Kula Bata Tiny Cabin abuts the wheelchair accessible larger bathroom/shower which is available to those at the Salamander Hollow main camp, yet you are secluded with your own private entry points and private bathroom. A ten minute drive takes you to the parking area to hike up Tully Mountain. There is a grill, wood fired pizza oven, two fire pits and a hygienic Incinolet electric toilet on the property for night convenience, with small camp sinks for washing & teeth brushing. Take a short hike off the property to organic Chase Hill Farm for milk, eggs, seasonal veggies, grass fed meat and other goodies. Say hello to their cows, chickens, pigs, goats, pups and kids. Nestled across the road from Salamander Hollow is Timber Haven Farm, where you can schedule your pickup of bacon and eggs, while loading up on delicious Owl Energy Bars for your adventurous excursions. For those interested in the glamping side of camping, you will enjoy a remote rustic experience with a few creature comforts to keep you well read, clean and fed. Please bring your own bedding - pillows, sleeping bags, comforter, teddy bears.There is a wall mounted blue tooth car radio/CD player in Sleeping Library, so bring your pre-digital favorites. Classical CDs to listen to. Lots of eclectic books to peruse.Walkie talkies, a set of 4, are available upon request. Chess & poker sets, too. Electric 2-burner stovetop and griddle upon request. Bring fire-starters/newspaper for tinder. We suggest if you are staying more than a night or two in winter, you bring supplemental wood or we can direct you to a nearby stand. Next season, our own cut and split wood will be seasoned and available on site. We ask that you carry out trash and recyclables. An established Western facing four point sacred Medicine Wheel site being established on Askari Ridge - our name for the slope starting with the two fire pits - 'Askari' being Swahili for night guard. Here is where we envision a great touch-point area for those leading groups to be for a base-camp by day or night, where eventually a multi-use tenting platform/performance stage will be constructed for outdoor entertainment, creating an authentic 'stadium style' seating on the hill. You will see on your way up to Salamander Hollow main clearing - the Kula Bata Tiny Kabin on the left of the dirt road- now available to rent with its small guest room for two, infrared sauna, hot shower, kitchenette, dishwasher and laundry.

Awesome stay
This cabin and everything around the area is awesome! I got dropped off with my dog for a few days without a car and still had a blast. There is a path that leads off the property that leads to a great fishing spot and plenty of other trails. If you like the outdoors it's kind of hard to get bored here.

A beautiful, secluded space in the quiet of the woods. The full sized Teepee and the library were great! We cooked on that brick oven for hours, get away, experience, mother Earth in nature! Our second time here, and we will definitely be coming here annually!

Fantastic little cabin! Very comfortable and beautifully decorated, and includes all the amenities you could want or need. The appliances were nice and modern, and the kitchen and bathroom were great. Mary remembered that we had previously stayed in the Tipi and gave a warm welcome back. She is also highly responsive and attentive. Would definitely come back again!

Truly magical!
This was our second trip to Mary’s property and it was really wonderful! The library with its cozy wood stove and endless books was a relaxing way to spend our weekend. We enjoyed our evenings around the fire in the tipi and a pizza dinner cooked in the outdoor oven. This place is truly magical! Mary is a fantastic host who goes the extra mile to make sure you have everything you need. We will definitely visit again.

Such a lovely experience
A wonderful weekend getaway. Communication and self check in was a breeze. Well maintained cabin equipped with everything we’d need. Cozy, comfortable, peaceful. Beautiful surroundings to relax in that can also be enjoyed via the window views when inside. (After a rainy first day we watched an awesome, distant lightning storm one night and beautiful, blue skies the next morning.) You can make out where the other sites are while easily maintaining privacy for all. Plenty of information to stay in and on foot for hiking or visiting a nearby farm and/or take a vehicle to close by hikes and attractions. Our dog enjoyed sharing our restful time with us. The water is potable and an additional gallon of drinking water was provided-feel free to bring your own for drinking if you’d want more and prefer to avoid the sulfur. Host was super kind and thoughtful. We definitely plan on returning and staying at the hosts other listings as well.

Fun and unique
This was the most unique outdoor experience--what a place to gather and connect! We made a pizza in the pizza oven (it may not be rocket science but it did take a few yummy tries to get it just right) and then made smores in the tipi and talked through the night. The library has a very eclectic assortment of books to get you in the right mindset to escape from it all. The view from the loft at dusk was one of the most stunning explosions of color. It was serene and tranquil and so fun to go between the 3 buildings and explore the property. We hiked in the woods and enjoyed the blustery cold days with good fires. We had rented the tiny cabin as well which just added to the whole experience, by ending days with a sauna and a different view. The whole property brings out your inner child!

Serene sanctuary in the woods
The entire property has good vibes--it literally feels like a sanctuary the moment you drive up the lane. We loved this cabin--we rented this first and then added the library, tipi, and pizza oven. The cabin has everything you need to relax, eat well, detox in the sauna. Laundry is a nice touch since it was muddy!The shower was hot and strong and the bathroom is huge--making it easy to have a mini spa experience. The futon is very comfy and lying there, staring at the back with trees swaying in the wind was delightful. We loved hiking up Harry's Memorial Trail and sitting in the sun on the back bench of the cabin (snow covered the chairs). It's a place you could stay for a week and not miss the comforts of home.

Mary’s cabin was an amazing stay and the Infared Sauna was a perfect addition/treat. We were only about 2 hours from home, but felt like we were on a serene getaway (but within 20 minutes of coffee, restaurants, markets, etc). The cabin is clean, quiet, safe, and very cozy. There’s nothing more we could’ve asked for besides wishing it was Fall/Summer as to enjoy the cabin in all seasons. We will definitely be booking again. Thank you so much, Mary!

We had so much fun staying at this camp. The pizza oven was so cool to use and the tipi had the coolest vibes. The woodstove kept us toasty in negative degree temperatures and there was plenty of supplies provided. We will definitely be back in the summer to see what it's like in the different seasons!

My wife, 2 dogs and I loved the cabin! The sauna was a real treat. The kitchen had everything necessary to cook a full meal. Mary was very communicative and had amazing recommendations. The nearby trails were beautiful and there were a ton of books at the cabin to read. It was a perfect way to get away from it all! We will definitely try to visit again!

Salamander Hollow
The Salamander Hollow Library was a picturesque little cabin tucked into a serene patch of woods... with a wood fired pizza oven - epic! We were fortunate enough to have fresh snowfall both days and got to fully enjoy the winter surroundings. There's a farm stand down the road that has local pizza sauce, flour, and cheese so you can get that local flavor! We planned on leaving for some adventures during our stay, but the property was too perfect to leave, imo. Mary was super helpful, truly above and beyond. We can't wait for our next visit.

Mary’s listing is one of a kind! The outdoor wood-fire pizza oven was a fun activity for dinner and the teepee was perfect to have a warm campfire while sheltered from the cold wind. The location is also very close to some great hikes!
