Hussey Mountain Tree Farm

My partner and I are summer/spring campers who have been pushing into cooler-weather trips, and the third weekend of October at Hussey Mountain Tree Farm was a great test! I chose it for the reviews praising the property, the amenities, and Eben (the owner). The site: Ledgewood was very private, with beautiful views of the mountains and forest. The amenities were well considered, site super clean, and the grill grate was spotless, which stood out since many campgrounds don’t keep theirs up. The trails: You could spend multiple days enjoying the property’s trails, there are mindful moments built into much of the forest. The terrain is fun to hike, ranging from flat to steep, with some opportunities for scrambling. There are benches, hammocks, and clearings along the way that invite you to stop, read, talk, or simply be present. The peak foliage made the forest and the views of the mountains and pond unforgettable! The woods were so magical at dusk, so bring a headlamp to stay out and enjoy it! The forest basketball court was a very fun bonus. For us it had the perfect balance of comfort and camping. The site had a covering for our tent, a scenic bench, potable water provided, campfire chairs, tables, well-placed hammocks, and cooking gear to make camping easy and comfortable, yet the property keeps the focus on your natural surroundings. The forest feels honored, and Eben’s thoughtful touches bring you closer to it. The paid transport to your site is worth it for the convenience and for time to talk with Eben, who is kind, thoughtful, and insightful. Being able to support his vision is part of what makes this place even more special. We wish we had stayed longer and plan to return in spring and fall!

I could not recommend this spot more. Amazing views and a host that goes above and beyond for their guests. Had car troubles and Eben helped us out with whatever tools or accommodations we needed. Such a down to earth guy with an amazing property 10/10!

Great spot with a great story. The host is a model human who developed the mountain by himself and there are sweet personal touches hidden all over the place. The service was incredible, grill brushes and fire related tools included, very clean bathrooms, firewood delivered to the campsite, etc... My dog had the time of her life roaming around the woods, chewing on sticks, & digging holes freely. Skip the KOA, shop local.

I've now camped at the tree farm at Hussey Mountain twice, once with a friend and most recently on my own, and both stays were fantastic. The setting is absolutely beautiful and quiet, the kind of place where you can truly unwind and enjoy being outdoors. What really sets this place apart is the host, Eben. On our first visit, he went out of his way to help us set up our tent, which made us feel welcome from the start. When I came back as a solo female camper, he made me feel comfortable and safe throughout my stay. He offered extra firewood at no charge and even gave me a ride up to my campsite so I wouldn't have to make two trips up and down the mountain with my gear. Those small, thoughtful gestures made a big difference. If you're looking for a scenic, peaceful place to camp, whether with friends or by yourself, I can't recommend it enough. Eben is kind, helpful, and genuinely cares about his guests. I can't wait to come back!

We (5 ladies) just completed a lovely 4-day tent camp stay at Hussey Mountain...we lucked out - the weather was perfect! Eben is one of the most gracious hosts we have ever met; he goes out of his way to make your stay as pleasant as possible. We stayed at camp site #2...it's a little bit of a hike from the 4WD parking lot, but not too difficult. There are rocks and roots everywhere, so go slow with the wagon! Eben has a great little ATV with a good wagon to tow, so getting the big gear up (tents, coolers, stoves, etc.) was easy-peasey. The views are spectacular, and it's well worth your time to trek to the summit. The campsites are pristine clean (as is the shower and outhouse!), and the big extra bonus for us was not having to leash our 2 dogs -- they thought they were in doggy Disneyland! Throughout our stay, Eben was always available if needed to bring up more water (plenty of fresh spring water is supplied in crates of 4 gallon jugs), and is a ready resource for any other information you might need. The mountain itself is amazing -- covered with black and white birch trees, maples, and pine. Eben cares about the property, and it shows. Careful clearing and forestry has resulted in a lovely natural forest setting. Our little group tends to be "glampers", so it was a little more rustic camping than we're used to, but it was really worth the extra effort. The privacy, the forest silence, OMG the sky! and the beautiful weather made this weekend a memorable one. We all agreed we want to return next year!

10/10 peaceful stay

Very grateful to have spent time on Eben’s property. Super peaceful, amazing views and Eben is super helpful and kind. He provides a lot of camp needs including chairs, some cooking supplies, some fire supplies and two hammocks. The platform for the tent was super helpful as well. If you decide to bring your stuff up yourself, seriously pack light. And pack what you can carry. It’s only a 10-15 minute hike but doing it in multiple trips would be annoying and it’s an actual steep hike. The campsite is so beautiful and there are hikes to do around as well. Highly recommend staying here!!

Incredible Views

The location and view was incredible. There is a thoughtfulness of the sites and everything at the site. Water at the site, miscellaneous camping items, plenty of seating and tables. Would recommend the cargo haul up to the site. Not bad to hike up, but when you have lots of stuff it's a must. The trails are well maintained and have great views. Will definitely visit again.

We absolutely loved our experience! Hussey Mountain has definitely become our spot to camp and relax! During our trip in August we were there for the moon eclipse and it was absolutely beautiful to see at the ridge campsite. Eben is absolutely wonderful and helped make our time here even better.

Campsite 4 is impeccably tidy, well provisioned, and has an amazing view. We enjoyed sunrise from the site and short hikes around the property with our dog. The privacy is unmatched. But by far the most special experience was meeting Eben. What a genuinely kind and generous soul! We are already planning a return trip. Thank you for sharing your personal paradise with us.

We had a great experience at Hussey Tree Farm. Eben is an engaged host that makes the trip easy. The location was wonderful with lots of things to keep you busy as you explore the property or some of the nearby options Eben suggested. We did a family trip with younger kids and found it to be a perfect blend between car camping and tent camping. We had the convenience options of car camping with the privacy of tent camping.

Eben was an absolutely fantastic host - a one man army maintaining such a huge property and doing a stellar job. He communicated clearly on what we can expect and gave us clear instructions on how to get to the base camp and how we would then get to our campsite. I would recommend you take the time to chat with him too. It’ll make you appreciate the property, and his efforts, even more. :)

We had a great time staying on the top of the Ridge at campsite 3! Eben was very accommodating right from the start even though we were running late, he explained the whole layout and what to expect, gave us an easy guide map. The $60 for the ride for your stuff up is worth it!! Also the eggs or fresh chicken you can get from the farm next door is such a plus! The fresh eggs were absolutely delicious! We enjoyed the hike up and down. It was definitely rocky, but we hike a lot, and didn't find it difficult, but it is quite steep. The site at the top is absolutely beautiful! The hammocks are such a great addition. My daughter and I read in them one day, and just listened to the grasshoppers. The campsite is equipped with so many useful items, water jugs, pan, grill tools, ect. Everything to cook over the fire. No bathrooms at the campsite, but CLEANEST porta potty at the base of the camp. Also a shower(looked wonderful though we didnt utilize). My family and I were there celebrating my 40th, so it was such a wonderful surprise to see fireworks off in the distance . The sunsets and sunrises, are amazing. So many shooting stars! There are chairs in a tote under the deck, a little bench near the fire and a picnic table, so plenty of seating. Another surprise was all the amazing rocks. If you like looking at beautiful sparkly mica rocks then you will be in heaven! Its one of the most peaceful places we've been in awhile. We already cant wait to go back!
