Krystine is a Star Host

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

With the original home built in 1785, Milk Thistle farm is on the historic register and is comprised of the main house and 5 acres of land. It is run as a small non-profit animal sanctuary and is home to rescued chickens, goats, and pigs, as well as two humans and their dog and cat companions. The main property is fenced in, with a large back field great for tent camping, and an orchard to explore that can also double as hammock camping. There is parking for cars and bikes. We try to minimize our impact on the environment as much as possible, and encourage our guests to compost, recycle, and dispose of waste accordingly. Please note we have dogs, including a Livestock Guardian Dog that does bark to alert us of new people and warn off would be predators. We will happily introduce him to any guests to minimize disruptions. Check us out on instagram @milk_thistle_farm

Orchard Tent and Hammock Oasis

Cute spot! The orchard space had a spooky vibe in the best way :) easy to find and the walk in is very short with lights to guide you.

Orchard Tent and Hammock Oasis

Cute, Convenient, Private and Safe.

My son and I spent 2 nights camping here. It was a nice site for a tent, and a hammock and a great fire pit, although you really had to stay on the trail due to poison ivy. The hosts were very nice, and it was cool to have the animals around and fresh eggs for breakfast.

Open Field with Farm Views

Nice view and relaxing atmosphere for camping but there are somethings you should know about it. 1. You have to walk for about 3-5min from parking site to the camp site. 2. There is one fire pit, one picnic table, and one portable water that you have to share with other campers whoever you’d share the open filed farm with. 3. Toilet’s located at pretty seclude place but no privacy at all. 4. There is a rooster that starts calling out at 3-4 am until 7-8 am.

We had so much fun! What a wonderful getaway! The area was very beautiful and calm, loved the sounds of the animals and having coffee under the gazebo.

Came here with a group of 10 friends and our dog - our stay could not have been any better. Perfectly secluded little area but the hosts are available at any point & extremely helpful :) would book again!!

Okay for ONE night.

I would never have guessed that this was a camp site if you didn’t tell me! The grass had not been cut for a long time, the outdoor furnitures were not very well kept and the toilet…. hmm. Clean water was good though. In the morning the rooster woke me up quite early - no big deal, I’m a morning person!
