Best HipCamp Massachusetts 2023 Best HipCamp USA Finalist 2023 Best HipCamp Massachusetts Finalist 2022 THERE IS WIFI, PRIVATE HOT SHOWER and FLUSH TOILET. EXCEPT FOR THE RECENTLY ADDED TULLY 'THOREAU' ISLAND. Salamander Hollow is a private, evolving honeybee and human being sanctuary on 17 acres of land abutting Massachusetts State Forest. We currently have a one-room, wood stove warmed, cozy sleeping loft for one or two - with two benches below on either side of room - for two sleeping bags; plus, a separate 22 foot Sioux tipi with two cots. There are two chairs in the tipi, which if removed at night, make floor room for four other sleeping bags. 'Forest Bathing' for miles! If you're a larger group booking Salamander Hollow main camp with its Sleeping Library, Tipi & Slovenian Beehive House, you might consider renting this additional Tiny Cabin want to entertain all in glamping style, utilizing its amenities; as well, providing another bathroom/shower and guest bedroom for those who prefer being indoors while in the great outdoors. Note that Kula Bata Tiny Cabin abuts the wheelchair accessible larger bathroom/shower which is available to those at the Salamander Hollow main camp, yet you are secluded with your own private entry points and private bathroom. A ten minute drive takes you to the parking area to hike up Tully Mountain. There is a grill, wood fired pizza oven, two fire pits and a hygienic Incinolet electric toilet on the property for night convenience, with small camp sinks for washing & teeth brushing. Take a short hike off the property to organic Chase Hill Farm for milk, eggs, seasonal veggies, grass fed meat and other goodies. Say hello to their cows, chickens, pigs, goats, pups and kids. Nestled across the road from Salamander Hollow is Timber Haven Farm, where you can schedule your pickup of bacon and eggs, while loading up on delicious Owl Energy Bars for your adventurous excursions. For those interested in the glamping side of camping, you will enjoy a remote rustic experience with a few creature comforts to keep you well read, clean and fed. Please bring your own bedding - pillows, sleeping bags, comforter, teddy bears.There is a wall mounted blue tooth car radio/CD player in Sleeping Library, so bring your pre-digital favorites. Classical CDs to listen to. Lots of eclectic books to peruse.Walkie talkies, a set of 4, are available upon request. Chess & poker sets, too. Electric 2-burner stovetop and griddle upon request. Bring fire-starters/newspaper for tinder. We suggest if you are staying more than a night or two in winter, you bring supplemental wood or we can direct you to a nearby stand. Next season, our own cut and split wood will be seasoned and available on site. We ask that you carry out trash and recyclables. An established Western facing four point sacred Medicine Wheel site being established on Askari Ridge - our name for the slope starting with the two fire pits - 'Askari' being Swahili for night guard. Here is where we envision a great touch-point area for those leading groups to be for a base-camp by day or night, where eventually a multi-use tenting platform/performance stage will be constructed for outdoor entertainment, creating an authentic 'stadium style' seating on the hill. You will see on your way up to Salamander Hollow main clearing - the Kula Bata Tiny Kabin on the left of the dirt road- now available to rent with its small guest room for two, infrared sauna, hot shower, kitchenette, dishwasher and laundry.

Modern amenities in the woods
We had a great two night stay in this tiny house, new with all the amenities you’d want in a tiny space. We used the hiking trails off the property as well as nearby ones including Mt Tully and Mt Grace.

Forest Zz Library Tipi & Pizza Oven
I had such a great time at Salamander Hollow in the Library. The pizza oven structure was really fun to use, the tipi was magical, and the Library was cozy and comfortable. I had a cozy and relaxing time even though it was very cold. There are nice hikes nearby as well. I can’t wait to visit again soon. Thank you Mary!

Forest Zz Library Tipi & Pizza Oven
Absolutely wonderful stay! It was super windy during our stay and it snowed! We stayed in the library and it was super cozy and enjoyable! We brought our dog too and he loved it! Really is a peaceful experience!

Winter Stay in Library & Tipi Site
I have stayed at the Salamander Hollow Healing Habitat 3 times now and will continue to stay in the future. The host is amazing! My last visit was in February and I stayed in the Forest, Library Tipi & Pizza Oven site. The host puts a lot of thought into making the stay a real "Healing Habitat". Beautiful and peaceful surroundings. I loved my stay and this was the first chance I did have to relax in the tipi with a warm fire it was truly amazing. If you stay be sure to try the wood fired pizza oven!! This last trip was magical with some snow on the ground still. Tipi was warm and relaxing with fire going and I slept in the library that night with the wood stove that kept the library very toasty. Thank you Mary once again for a fabulous stay and I look forward to visiting again soon.
