Fox Farm is located on 8 magical acres in eclectic Brattleboro, VT. Pitch your tent in a sacred private white pine forest or closer to the trail-head with access to a charcoal grill, a huge fire circle and a picnic table. If you prefer a roof over your head, check Fox Farm Cottage @ Fox Farm. Located ideally on a trail-head that leads to the West River Trail (a 36-mile scenic trail through the West River Valley – eventually linking Brattleboro, Dummerston, Newfane, Townshend, Jamaica and South Londonderry) and the West River, offering opportunities to hike, fish, swim, ski, snow shoe and bike. The Marina Bar and Restaurant is a 2 mile hike or bike ride from the camp site (via the West River Trail) and is a fun way to see the beauty of Vermont and partake in some excellent indoor/outdoor dining with views of the water. Currently there are two areas available to campers; The Pine Forest and the Council of the Elders. The Pine Forest is a shaded circular area that is very spiritual and quiet. There are currently 3 camp sites in the Pine Forest. The Council of the Elders is a more open (again circular) area that abuts The Pine Forest and has a large fire pit as it's centerpiece, surrounded by the Elder Pine trees. I have had up to 2 campers and an occasional van/camper at the Council of the Elders. I have most recently had requests to book the entire Pine Forest for guests who are traveling together and want privacy- and Ido my best to work with people to accommodate any needs. Please bring your own firewood if you intend to have a fire. I offered wood to guests in the past when I was able but found that tricky to manage as there are times I myself am out of wood. There is plenty of felled wood all around as the property is surrounded by a dense forest and guests are welcome to gather that to supplement fire making. In my experience as a host, I have noted that folks come together and build mini-communities, share food, fires and is generally a positive vibe. Some come for privacy and solitude, which has not been an issue thus far. All in all the energy is upbeat and folks make friends along the way- me too! Brattleboro is a funky, hipster town with many excellent restaurants and much to see and do. For winter enthusiasts Mount Snow is a 30 minute drive and folks can cross country ski and snowshoe right from their camp sites to the 36 mile trail. The Hipcamper can expect privacy yet easy accessibility to the homeowner for tips and ideas to support a positive experience. Campers may be greeted and visited my friendly Bernese Mountain Dog's, Loki Bear and Levi!

Fox Farm Cottage

The cottage is really cute and comfortable but still rustic (bucket toilet, no running water , etc.). Perfect for camping with a little extra protection from rain or bad weather. The covered porch was lovely and made our stay particularly enjoyable.

Fox Farm Cottage

The rustic cabin was exactly as stated. It was quaint and comfortable. The short hike to the river was the highlight for my family. My only hesitation would be the bathroom situation. My family and I are very use to "roughing" it, but the miscommunication about carry in and carry out of waste, was misunderstood. For that, I could not recommend this to family or friends. In the future, if a outhouse is available, then 100% would recommend. Cindy was a great and attentive host. Thank you for that!!

Pine Forest Site 1

Easy access to swimming!

Great campsite! The campsite is a ~3 minute wallk from the river and a ~5 minute walk form a swimming beach. The campsite came with multiple tables, several chairs, and a fire pit. The walk along the river to the Marina is lovely! We will be back!

Secluded Site 4

Cindy’s site was a perfect getaway, really beautiful space for my group of 5. The river is a pleasant 15 minute hike to a really great watering hole that is quite warm in the summer. Cindy was also wonderful with communication leading up to the trip, and once we arrived. Would absolutely return.
