The RV site is the only one currently on the farm and is nestled near a stream and forest trails into the Freetown forest. Suitable for tent camping and small RVs.
Wake up to bird song, explore nearby trails, or simply unwind with a journal or a book. At night, build a campfire, gaze up at the stars, and breathe in the quiet solitude.

This is a project of my brother and I, to create a healing center / space for people to come connect with the land.
***We are not part of the winery adjacent to our property***
We keep the land as wild, minimum maintenance/ human disturbance as possible.
We have just built a deck to put a yurt on site for healing sessions. I am a cranial sacral therapist and did my yoga teacher training in India, taught in India, Australia, Hawaii, now RI! If you are interested in sessions please reach out to me.
I host women's gatherings here on the land as well as seasonal celebrations (solstice and equinox). Creating common unity.

Private 2.2-Acre RV Basecamp on Route 3 | Loaded with Amenities | Centrally Located near I-95
Welcome to your private Rhode Island basecamp! Set privately in the backyard behind a vacant, vintage single-story structure, this dedicated 2.2-acre RV site offers complete privacy from the road, directing all attention to the open green space, outdoor amenities, and dark night skies. Tailored for road-trippers, dog owners, and active travelers, it is an ideal spot to plug in, unwind, and recharge before your next day’s adventure.
Located directly on Route 3 with close access to I-95, this site is centrally located so you can be on the road in minutes—making easy day trips to the beaches of Watch Hill, historic Newport, local wineries, golf courses, or nearby hiking and fishing trails.
Amenities for RVers & Outdoor Lovers:
Utility Access: Dedicated 30-amp electric hookup (moveable) and clean, pristine potable water.
Epic Natural Fire Pit: An impressively large, natural stone fire pit designed for gathering, story-swapping, and stargazing under dark night skies.
Outdoor Comforts: Screened-in rustic porch, propane grill, and an outdoor dining table with chairs and umbrella.
Convenient Facilities: Outdoor rinse shower, hot and cold utility spigots, and an on-site portable restroom to help you conserve your RV holding tanks.
Pet Setup: Dog-friendly with two installed dog runners plus a moveable tie-out post available for your pets.
A Note on Setting & Sound:
This property offers a unique blend of natural surroundings and prime transit convenience. While the backyard features dark skies and mature greenery, the property is located directly on Route 3 with Interstate 95 running behind the property line. Recent clearing and construction in the corridor have opened up the buffer, so highway and road traffic is clearly audible outdoors.
If you are looking for complete deep-woods isolation to sit outside all day, this site may not be the right fit. But if you want a private, amenity-rich launchpad to recharge your rig after a full day exploring coastal New England, this spot delivers unbeatable convenience.

Absolutely magical. The Yurt site at Getaway Ranch is one of those rare, special places that can heal your weary soul. The perfect balance of wilderness immersion and convenience. Will you hear some faint sounds of civilization in the distance? Yes. But, that's a fair trade-off for a FWD accessible site where you will fall asleep to the sound of barred owls and coyotes, then wake up to the beauty of the fog rolling off the river. Lot's of cool amenities. We definitely want to try our the Yurt site's cast iron smoker next year! Thank you, Karyssa!
