We have a pretty magical farm in rural West Greenwich. We are only about 10 mins from I-95 but we are nestled in the woods. Fall asleep to the sound of crickets and cicadas and wake up to birds chirping and our rooster crowing . It is certainly a peaceful, quiet, private area. Our site has a waste-bag toilet (must take waste with you), an extension cord and a sink. The site is located in a quiet field where you will often find deer grazing in the morning and afternoon. We are a young farming family. Our dream is to build a cidery on this property in future years. We have started to plant our orchard with cider apple varieties, about 650 dwarf apple trees, and we are also growing some flowers and squash at the moment. We currently have six pigs and nine chickens on the farm. Eggs and cuts of pork are available for purchase, just ask! Feel free to walk around the farm, just be respectful, don't leave anything behind, and be aware that some areas have poison ivy (the field where you are staying does not have any).Come camp in our secluded Firefly Field and soak in some nature. This field is surrounded by trees to give you a private space of your own. There are often deer grazing in the morning and afternoon hours and you will surely see plenty of birds and other wildlife as well. Expect to fall asleep to the sounds of crickets and cicadas in the summer and wake to the songs of birds and the crow of our rooster. You are welcome to walk around, visit with the pigs (seasonal) and chickens, and check out our high density apple orchard. Centrally located in RI! Drive 30 minutes North to Providence, 30 minutes South to Narragansett Beach, 20 minutes East to Historic Wickford Village. Plenty of hiking and mountain biking trails just minutes away - Big River Management Area and Cuttyhunk Brook Preserve are right down the road! There is a camping toilet for solid waste only. It is lined with a bag and you MUST carry this out with you. Friendly, well-behaved dogs are welcome. You must pick up after your dog!! We have a dog and toddler as well as a cat, chickens, and pigs so your dog MUST be well-trained and friendly. Pork and eggs from our farm are available upon request. There are more cuts available, but some options are available for purchase through hipcamp. Please provide ample notice so we are able to provide these items to you upon your arrival. Send a message for more details! Camp fires in the provided fire ring are only allowed during appropriate conditions. Please BYO RI native firewood. Please wet down the surrounding area thoroughly before starting and soak the fire once done. I will need some notice to hook up the sink to water, run the extension cord out there, as well as to get the site mowed and ready. The sink’s water is potable and located at the site. Things to note: Please be careful of poison ivy while roaming the farm and be sure to do a tick check. Bring bug spray in the warmer months, we are in the woods with some wetlands behind us. We are a working farm, so we may be out on the tractors getting some work done, sometimes in the early morning hours. Please be courteous and plan to arrive prior to 10pm. Please let us know your ETA upon booking. Cancellations will be refunded if done prior to 3 days before check in. No exceptions after.

Beautiful site!
Beautiful property! Great big area but set up so cozy! Fire pit, Adirondack chairs, hammock and adorable string lights added to the comfort of the site. Jaclyn was a great host, very quick to respond to any questions and a pleasure to deal with. We absolutely will book here again!

Great space for camping, wide open and easy to get to. Jaclyn was easy to communicate with, and the farm / land is a hidden gem!

We had a very private location in the rear of Jaclyn's property that proved very peaceful throughout our stay. Jaclyn responded promptly to all communications. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this location.

Camping on this beautiful farm was a fantastic experience. So peaceful and quiet, except for the owls who would hoot to me at night. The surroundings were gorgeous. Water and electricity also available. And cell service was strong so I could use my hotspot to work from camp, which I needed to do. It didn’t feel like work, though. It felt like an adventure. Highly recommend!

Private site with pluses.
Lovely camping experience which is private with nice pluses: camping toilet, outdoor sink, and some string lights. The field space is large for a single site and the location is surrounded by nature preserve. We heard an owl hooting in the evenings while by the fire. Priceless.

We had a great stay on the farm! The site is secluded, peaceful, and the outdoor sink is charming and convenient. Our tent stayed dry during rain on our first night there - the generous field won't turn to muck on you overnight. Oh, and the bacon was delicious 👍
