elle is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

The property used to be part of the old Johanson farm, it was a 200 acre dairy farm a hundred years ago. when the State put in the highway (I-93) in 1961 it split the farmland in half. So now there are a hundred acres on each side of the Highway. The old stagecoach road which runs through the property from Canterbury Station to Northfield Station is now part of the main trails system. The early Pony Express riders dubbed the swamp on the land "Wolf Swamp", because there were many reports of riders seeing Wolves in the Swamp. The property is very open, although the sites are very spread out and secluded for ultimate privacy. There are several great hiking trails on the property, also used by local mountain bikers and Horseback Riding. Occasionally there will be an ATV or Dirt Bike passing through. We are located in the Heart of the local Trail system. There are several great places to swim and Kayak or Canoe literally around the corner. There are also lots of great local attractions close by, many that have Farm Stores, Shops, Homemade Gifts, Breads, Pies, Cheeses and we even have a few local Breweries. There is something for everyone, just ask and we will point you in the Right Direction.

Site 3 Copacabana

Favorite Camping Spot

This is my new favorite place to camp! The hosts are so personable and welcoming. Elle was so quick to respond any time my boyfriend and I had questions. There’s a great variety of bodies of water, all about five minutes away. I didn’t want to leave and I cannot wait to come back!

Site 6 Yogis place

Seclusion!

Elle was an absolute sweet heart and answered all questions quickly. Her land is incredible, almost all sites are secluded. We stayed at site 6 yogis place which was slightly elevated and fit our 22' travel trailer with ease. That site has a porter potty on it and was one of the cleanest I've ever seen. There are numerous swimming holes nearby, all within a short drive (merrimack river or pond). There's also a self serve farm stand that has fruits, veggies, meats and a ton more. Cell service (verizon) worked for calls but not much for data use (we didn't care). Her jack Russell terrier is super friendly and so were the horses. 10/10 we will definitely be going back.

The Presidential Suite site # 12

Hosts were phenomenal, camp site was perfect(we had a batchelor party). Tons of trails for atv’s and Dirt-bikes. Property was very well maintained and you can tell they have pride in what they do. Totally recommend for anyone.

Site 6 Yogis place

I stayed a couple nights on a road trip north. Elle's place is beautiful and the campsites are big and clean. It's a great homebase close to local fishing and bike riding.

Site 2 The Meadow

Wolf Swamp Site 2 The Meadow

I loved camping on Elle's property. The site was very large and grassy. It is a sloping property but there were plenty of areas that were decently flat. We have a 30 foot by 30 foot tarp for our tent that we lay down. We could have put 2 more identical tents on this site and have plenty of room to still park and move around freely. Very sunny site almost all day. Very close to the horse barn where they have 3 friendly horses and where one of the super clean well stocked porta potties were located. The wood prices are great and they provide water jugs for cleaning/cooking. We had a flat tire on our trailer and they suggested local places to get it fixed. They also provided an air pump for the tire to fix it. Very private location and each site has its own privacy and space to not see other campers 😀. Close to a beach and a spring to fill up with drinking water. The country store is also fairly close with great options. There are lots of convenience stores within 25 minutes away including some grocery stores too. Thanks again for a great time and being very helpful finding items that were requested by us. You made my father's day weekend trip very reasonably priced 😉 We will definitely be back next year! Thank you!
