Once this property was part of a large chicken farm, the fields were hayed and still are. The meadow filled with water after logging occurred about 70 years ago creating the swamp. Recently, small farm has been built here that includes alpacas, a llama, ducks, chickens, kitties and a rescue dog Beautiful farmland with livestock, including alpacas! An open field, forest, walking trails and a peaceful swamp with wildlife is all at your disposal while you are here at Someday Farm! We have a total of 12 sites for your enjoyment, there are a few sites here (Site 1, 5 and Site 12) that allow campers and tow behinds. Others may work We are in central NH only an hour from Boston off of I 93, and less than 30 miles away from the famous Lake Winnipesaukee, we are perched on a picturesque dirt road in the beautiful country town of Canterbury New Hampshire. Whether you are up for just hanging at your campsite, exploring the swamp, picnic in the field overlooking the swamp, visiting the animals, or visiting around town, hiking nearby trials, we are here for your stay! We have easy-to-access rustic style camping accommodations for all sized parties traveling with tents, travel trailers or small campers. All of our sites offer potable water, solar shower bags, parking, fire pits, and a picnic table. Welcome Center! complete with a game section, dry firewood bundles, water, fire starter kits, also, extra supplies for purchase such as drinking water, bug spray and some homemade items, eggs, toiletries and some other items to purchase with cash (honor system) or Venmo or PayPal. Check it out! You don't need to purchase extras online if you'd rather pay here with a cost savings for you :) Onsite also, is a small library inside the Carraige House, let me know if you need a book. The old greenhouse has extra firewood available for your needs, located between 8 and 9 - also some items for you, to use, rent or purchase. Blackberry picking Aug-Sept. 1 pint free and then $5.00 a pint-honor system. Common Area-Strickly foot traffic only, this is a space to enjoy the open sky with a table, firepit and a grill for anyone's use. If you don't want to bring a grill and don't want to cook on grates. It is a first come first serve basis. But maybe your neighbors' will all come and cook with you? Cornhole!! Setup on weekends along the drive and next to the Common Area, find the bags in Welcome Center. The Shelf has many games, please return when not in use. Once you are confirmed an email is sent offering places around this beautiful town that you may visit at your leisure, including Shaker Village, Canterbury Ale works, Canterbury Woods Golf course, Hackleboro Orchards, our own Canterbury Country Store-1 mile away, Cold Garden Sprits is a new small distillery that is fascinating! If you need more city life amenities like grocery stores or restaurants, the capitol city of Concord to the south, and the town of Tilton and Laconia to the north, are a breeze to access and are less than 20 minutes away. Direct bookings and advanced reservations are no problem, and we also try to accommodate last minute bookings whenever we can. Feel free to msg me or call for questions and information.

You can also msg me to purchase firewood and other items once you are on site.

A long and narrow site, was meant for overflow from site 5, or rents independently. A more woody area site, it's secluded as tent areas are in the back and farthest corner. Great for larger groups and join site 5 and 6 or still small enough for a single private site.

    Someday Farm offers a tranquil escape with well-maintained campsites and attentive hosting by Barbie. The farm's unique charm is enhanced by a variety of animals like alpacas, adding to the experience. While most campers enjoy the peace and abundant amenities, occasional noise from nearby campers can be a drawback. Overall, guests appreciate the accessibility and serene environment, making it a favorite for many returning visitors.

    Camped in a 20 ft rooftop tent at Site 6 - Old Three A with pets, Oct 2026.

    Recommends

    The property is beautiful and Barbie is an absolute gem. We highly suggest getting coffee with the alpacas if you have a chance. Very clean and well maintained site and multiple walking trails to explore. This was our first Hipcamp experience and we were very pleased!

  • Elise F.

    Tent camped at Site 8 - Pond Trail, Oct 2026.

    Recommends

    We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Someday farm and forest! Spot #8 was secluded and perfect for two people, and Barbie is a very accommodating host with almost anything you can think of available at the arrival kiosk and anything else she is close by to help provide. Alpaca coffee hour and fresh eggs from the chickens to cook over the campfire for breakfast were wonderful additions that I highly recommend. I would love to stay here again sometime soon.

Clean, private, well maintained sites with large bundles of dry wood, easily accessible water and the welcome shed had all kinds of goodies- all you could ask for and more! Barbie is a fantastic host!
