2 nights at Slateville Farm Secluded Camps

After three years on Hipcamp, Slateville Farms delivered our most amazing camping experience ever. Heather's hospitality was exceptional - she met us at the Farm Stand and personally escorted us to our site. When she learned we were celebrating my 14-year-old's birthday with friends, she thought the boys would LOVE the new Quarry site, upgraded us and had our tent set up before arrival! The Farm Stand was incredible with essentials like firewood and ice, plus gourmet treasures including homemade organic strawberry rhubarb vanilla jam and pickled beet relish that were unbelievable. Fresh berries, vegetables, and eggs collected that day from Heather's chickens added authentic farm-to-table magic. Thoughtful amenities included four shelves of forgotten items - we used the first aid kit, mosquito repellent wristbands and even borrowed a hammock. The complimentary incense bug repellent was game-changing. At dusk during dinner, not one bug bothered us as fragrant incense filled the air. The Quarry site was phenomenal with kayaks, floats and an amazing jumping spot for the boys. Spring water spigots provided icy cold water. If needed a flush toilet + shower added perfect glamping comfort. Sunset views from the highest peak were breathtaking! We even chilled with Highland cows! I'm already planning an adult trip back. This represents everything great about camping - genuine hospitality, stunning beauty, thoughtful amenities and exceptional care. A million thanks Heather and Paul!

As always, thank you so so much Heather! We love Slateville Farm and look forward to returning to all year! Heather is fantastic, very responsive, and super super helpful and kind - she helped us out with a last minute stick of butter when I forgot mine, and the produce is amazing (loving the blueberries!) So grateful for you can't wait to come back! : )

Weekend Trip to Know Town

This dome is great! Large and spacious. You are out in nature, but with a dash of convenience. A perfect place for the last minute get away that I booked with my wife. Watching fireflies while inside is pretty cool.

Weekend Trip to Riverside Retreat and Tiny Cabin

Great spot! Robbin is a very responsive and kind host. Site was right on the river and very peaceful, perfect for post-biking cool down. The two sites were visible to each other but decent distance between, we were the only group so felt huge/private! Blackberry bushes ripe for the picking. Close to town and a short drive to the Slate Valley MTB trails. Would camp here again! Steep hill if driving up and down but fine with AWD, could have also left the car parked up at the top by the road.

Weekend Trip to Sunrise Farm

We loved camping on the lotus pond, it was very relaxing and easy to get too. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Riverside Retreat and Tiny Cabin

Robin was very helpful and quickly responded to my communication. We stayed there to go to the Pond Hill Rodeo and it was perfect. Great hosts!

Weekend Trip to Slateville Farm Secluded Camps

Awesome site and property! Heather was a very kind host who made us feel very welcomed onto her farm! We purchased a wood bundle and a half dozen eggs from her and were very pleased with both! High quality wood and the eggs were delicious! The quarry was so refreshing to jump into and was the highlight of the site. There are kayaks to use on shore and a nice cliff to jump off of. If you want to hang in the water you should bring a flotation device since the whole thing is at least 45’ deep! Just one note: We stayed at the new quarry site and the site had an interesting fire pit. It is a very deep metal “cup”. Thankfully our tripod hanging cooking grate just barely fit over it so we could still use it but it is just something to be aware of. It’s pretty big so the fire is deep into the cup so its kind of tough to watch the fire unless you are standing up. The redeeming thing about it though is that it does a fantastic job of keeping the smoke out of your face! It forces the smoke straight up. Overall it was a 10/10 site and Heather has such a beautiful property! We will be back!

This was our first experience, using a hip camp site and our experience was absolutely fabulous! The site was immaculately maintained, beautiful, and very relaxing. One note to future travelers, it was very helpful for us to have a rechargeable fan just to keep the pesky black flies away.

Weekend Trip to Slateville Farm Secluded Camps

We loved how private and peaceful this campsite felt as it really felt like we had the entire place to ourselves. Sure there are other sites on the property, but they are well-spaced. So you have plenty of privacy and quiet. We visited in early July and were treated to an incredible show of fireflies each night. Heather was a wonderful host—very responsive and helpful, and she gave us great recommendations for local places. The on-site shower with hot water at the farm stand was also a bonus. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a serene, private getaway close to nature!

Weekend Trip to Sunrise Farm

It’s beautiful place to camp at and very peaceful. Each spot offer different things, #1 (which i tried last year ) give you open view , and #5 give excluding feel (which i tried this year) Overall the place is beautiful, peaceful, and safe, the drive to get there is a amazing as well and they provide almost everything you need and the price is very reasonable and affordable

3 nights at Slateville Farm Secluded Camps

My group loved our stay at Heather’s farm. We originally had The Owl site reserved but Heather accommodated us with a bigger site due to our group size. The site we ended up at was wonderful with great views and so much space. The private dock was a plus! There was a lot to explore in the farm and we only scratched the surface. We’re looking forward to coming back. Thank you so much for having us!

Weekend Trip to Sunrise Farm

Great private location while still able to enjoy the pond at the main location. Roy is very helpful and responsive. It’s a tight fit for a large truck and a travel trailer larger than 20’.

Wyomanock Farm

There is additional information and a very good campground map on the website www.wyofarm.com. Our 75 acres is a wonderful, diverse mix of habitat, harmoniously integrated with our small farm. This land was the homestead of the very first non native settler of the area, John Wiley, in 1787. Before that, it was the land of the Mahican native Americans. They named it "valley of the butternut trees", or Wyomanock. The Wyomanock Creek is the backbone of this little valley. Beaver have dammed the creek at several points to create ponds and other wetland features that support a diversity of wildlife including otter, moose and a myriad of birds, from osprey to herons. This sanctuary is host to many uncommon native plants and plant communities. We would love to share it with you! Your host, Thom, invites you to property to explore 75 acres of meadows, woods and water. Choose one of several sites either in the woods or open areas. You are also free to use our outdoor solar shower or take a dip in the cold pond or artesian spring fed pool. Our location is convenient to the Berkshire Mountains, state parks, hiking and other attractions, including Ramble Wild tree to tree adventures and Jiminy Peak. There are a few miles of rail trail access just down the road.

Overview

About

Townshend State Park sits at the foot of Bald Mountain on the West River. You’ll feel like you’re stepping back in time--with remnants of days past including stonewalls, cellar holes, and old roads. The landscape features sprawling lawns, dense forest, and rocky hillsides. Take a hike up the Bald Mountain Trail to find waterfalls, pools, and stunning views.

When to go

The ideal time to visit Townshend State Park is during the summer and fall months when the weather is warm and the foliage is in full display. Summer offers perfect conditions for hiking and fishing, while autumn will enchant you with its vibrant colors. Winters can be harsh, and some facilities may be closed, so it's best to check ahead if you're planning a visit during the colder months.

Know before you go

Check the weather forecast before your visit to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience amid Vermont's variable climate.
Be aware of park operating hours, typically from 8:30am to 5pm, and plan your activities within this timeframe.
Remember to pack essentials like water, snacks, and a first-aid kit for your outdoor adventures.
Stay informed about any trail closures or special advisories by visiting the park's official website or contacting the park office.
Facilities such as restrooms and picnic areas are available, but it's wise to confirm their accessibility during your planned visit.
