All to yourself
100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.
Mags Mountain is a 185-acre property nestled in the foothills of the Green Mountains. We have a 17-acre private pond with opportunities for swimming, fishing, and small watercraft. The property features hiking trails throughout that take you around the pond, through the forest, and to the top of the mountain. Our land includes a beautiful mix of pine, hemlock, and hardwood forest, along with two streams and hundreds of large glacial erratic boulders. The campsite features a 12×12-foot tent platform, fire pit, camp kitchen area, waterside sitting area, and outhouse. The site can be accessed with a small 4x4 or all-wheel-drive vehicle, or it’s about a 10-minute hike from the main entrance to the property. Larger trucks and SUVs may get scratched if attempting to make the trek. If timing allows, we can also offer a ride to the site with our UTV. The site is very secluded and separate from the rest of the dwellings on the property, giving it a truly private and peaceful feel.There’s a 12x12 ft tent platform, and also space to set up tents on the ground. Picnic table, kitchen, and fire pit

Beautiful campsite, very well thought out! The cooking table was a wonderful asset, as were the Adirondack chairs overlooking the lake. We also really enjoyed the boat house across the lake from the campsite.

The perfect campsite, we couldn’t have asked for anything more. Super private, the property has hiking/walking trails, a private pond, thoughtful amenities and a great host. We would absolutely stay again and cannot recommend it highly enough.

Amazing campsite on a private pond

Mags Mountain
We had a great time at Mags Mountain! James met us for check-in and guided us out to the very private site right in the pond! The campsite itself felt brand new, with a fantastic wooden platform that we ended up using for our rain canopy to keep dry during some of the light rain. There is plenty of flat space around to spread out tents. We also loved how well thought out the placement of the fire pit, cooking table, and picnic table were. Our dogs had a great time running around off-leash and even took a couple swims in the pond! We would love to come back sometime!
