My home is the original Diers Homestead, established in 1940. It was named The Chicken Ranch in the 1960’s. There aren’t any chickens, but there are many forest creatures that wander out of the Green Mountain National Forest & into the meadow. You may see foxes, deer, moose, large marmots, and lots of different birds including wild turkeys & great blue herons. Apple trees of many varieties are scattered around. Come eat freely when they fruit! You’ll be camping on a hill with a fire ring nearby. The beautiful sunrises and sunsets are both visible as the meadow is open to the south, east & west. This is a special place in a perfect location. If you like to explore by foot, there’s a network of private hiking trails and a river to cool off in, both within 1/4 mile from your campsite. Also easily within walking distance is the village of Rawsonville: Ungrounded Coffee, Meulemans' Craft Draughts, Honeypie, Family Kitchen and Pizzeria, Mountain Riders, Equipe Sport & the Rawsonville Marketplace where you can get basic supplies and fuel. Speaking of fuel, if you really want to roll your wheels… Stratton Village is 8 minutes by car. Take a gondola ride to the top and check out the fire tower where you can see the entire lower half of Vermont state on a clear day. The village centers of Jamaica, Londonderry and Peru are also very close by and boast great food and crafts. And there’s always Manchester, if you’re seeking lots of shopping and fine dining. Horseback riding is a 15 minute drive from the campsite at Horses For Hire in Peru. This is a truly authentic experience. Trail rides for all abilities- even the “pony ride” for the little kids is a trail through the woods. Not to be missed! Also in Peru is Bromley Mountain which, during the summer months, becomes The Thrill Zone featuring a giant alpine slide. At Bee Well Homestead in Jamaica, there is authentic BBQ, live music and yoga every Sunday morning. The New American Grill in Londonderry has a wide selection of delicious food and their open mic night on Thursdays feature very talented local musicians. Even though it’s so close to all these uniquely wonderful people and their businesses, it is really just off a little country road - the best of both worlds!My home is the original Diers Homestead, established in 1940.

Atom's property is lovely and very spacious. We even got to hear an amazing "coyote chorus" in the middle of the night--twice! Atom is quick to respond to questions and a gracious host: he provided all manner of info on the local scene and also well-treated firewood, kindling, and paper for free. For campers who are looking for isolation out in nature, Hidden Orchard may not be a good fit. Atom is considerate and discrete, but his house is right next to the campsite. That said, evenings were quiet, crickets were happily active, and we enjoyed our stay.

This site wasn't exactly what I expected as it was essentially a driveway next to the driveway of the house next to the wood shed. There were quite a few bees around the shed and zero privacy. The host was kind enough to walk their dogs in the opposite direction of me so my dogs didnt freak too much. Not sure this one would be on my return list though.

The campsite was perfect for our group of four bikepackers! We loved having the fire pit and huge space to ourselves. Super close to restaurants and stores in town but secluded enough to be a great camping experience. Atom was an amazing host, very responsive before and during our stay.

This is a beautiful spot where enjoyed lots of space, fresh country air, and campfires at night. Pure VT! We were 48’ in total length (truck and travel trailer) and it was a little tight backing in, but doable with a little patience. Everything was great and we had plenty of space once we settled and unhitched. Atom provided tips on what to do around town, including details on what was happening the weekend we were there. Would highly recommend!

Atom was an excellent host! The property is lovely and catches the sunrise nicely. He pointed out flat spots for us 2 tired VTXL bikepackers to pitch our tents, then offered up some nice local info on a key river swimming hole nearby as well as food and beer/coffee options. Atom also very kindly supplied smores and firewood! Would definitely recommend camping here 👍👍👍

I loved the Hidden Orchard! There is plenty of room for your tent, a great sized fire pit, and complimentary wood. Plus, an amazing open view that provides great sunsets, sunrises, and even rainbows. Atom and his girlfriend, Kiki, were so sweet. I loved talking to them and learning more about their property and future plans. Great hosts and great site! Will definitely be back!

Atom was very kind and showed me right to my site as well as gave me a few ideas to eat, which I ate at Fran’s and it was delicious:) also something very unique for me at least from being in indiana , when I woke up in the morning and got out of my tent about 30 feet or so was a moose 🫎! It was a massive animal compared to the deer back at home, I would stay again if i come back through this town

At first, you think you’re in his yard close to the house, but man, it’s such a beautiful little spot. Quiet and cozy. Atom is super friendly and welcoming. He was very open in how I parked, so that we were comfortable and level, my dog could run off leash (she is used to being off leash) and I had her tied up as it got dark. Huge fire pit, (legit stood in it to build my fire) and played music while I sat by fire and ate my soup. Very responsive to messaging through Hipcamp, even in the evening when he was easing my mind about frequently visited critters/animals at night. Recommend. So happy I met him and his cute new little rescue pups.

We very much enjoyed staying at Atom’s. The fire pit was very well made and big enough to burn up some long branches. Atom also supplied campfire wood for us to use. The camping spot was easy to access and level up our camper. And Atom was very kind and gave us some pointers on where to go hiking.
