Welcome 2025, this is our 6th season hosting campers! Enjoy all Summer has to offer in the Vermont Countryside yet closer than you think. Our farm is nestled along a country road between several other farms, mostly horses and a special needs/therapy farm, we are hobby farmers/homesteaders. We have three sites open anytime, during camping season (May thru October), they’re all three tent camping sites but after that closes down for the season (November 1st) we open up for camper vans and small trailers (also in early Spring). If there is any question please ask, we can modify the schedule but are only able to accommodate three sites at any given time. Thanks and PLEASE email if you have any questions! The Guilford Fairgrounds is less than 1/4 mile away and has many hiking and biking trails. The land was originally part of a colonial Glebe Trust with the Church of England and divided up, the original 100+ year farmhouse and barn can be seen from many of the campsites. Guilford, Vermont is located in the southeast of Windham County, resting along the Massachusetts border to the south and New Hampshire not far to the east. A community with a long and interesting history, Guilford was actually Vermont’s largest town as long ago as 1790. Now, with a population of about 2,100, Guilford is by no means considered a large community. Yet with its beautiful old covered bridges, churches, and one-room schoolhouse, Guilford maintains an unmistakable sense of history while at the same time having a reputation as one of the truly unique small communities in southern Vermont. Guilford has some of the most quintessential small town landmarks in all of Vermont. Sites like the Christ Church, Broad Brook House, and Guilford Center Meeting House were all built in the early 19th Century and are now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. These buildings are found in what is considered the historic Guilford Center; shop for great local products at the Guilford Country Store, visit the charming Guilford Free Library, or even see some of the exhibits at the Guilford Historical Society Museum to learn more about the area and its history. Beyond the town center, venturing through the rest of Guilford will enable you to see the beautiful Vermont landscape of rolli

Welcome 2024 and to our 5th season! Summer at the farm is here; enjoy all that the Vermont countryside has to offer! Step back into the "Old Vermont" countryside, the way life used to be...on this 7 acre eclectic hobby farm surrounded by other farms, rolling hills and trails. Thank you all for a wonderful second season and voting for us, 2nd Place Overall Best of Vermont! 2022 camping season will soon be here and we are offering some improvements: a second outhouse up on the ridge, equipment shed on the ridge, better and stronger WiFi and the mobile farm stand....our '51 Willy's pick up tailgate complimentary farm stand all await you in 2022. We're combining all three sites onto this profile for a more convenient way to view the property and book your getaway. See you soon! Three large sites; totally different in many ways but all share the same property and amenities Maple Ridge Farm has to offer: "Field View Site" (Site#1) is our largest site and can accommodate up to fourteen people easily and still maintain privacy. Formerly two sites, Field View Site provides much more privacy and space to spread out and relax! There's a variety of terrain/layout in the rolling fields; site main area is centered around an old Horse Round Pen and has fire ring, cooking grate, old-fashion cook stove, and two wooden picnic tables. The field is the most accessible site from the car parking area along a flat, wooded trail, a 5 minute stroll either past the goats and ducks or thru the woods. It offers privacy from everything else, still plenty of shade and great views of the Hollow/Valley and the Eastern Mountain Range. Again, this site can accommodate larger groups with multiple tents in and around an old Horse Round Pen/Paddock or open fields. Other field areas offer areas under the apple trees or overlooking the apple trees or at the top of the field overlooking the neighboring 1880s Farmhouse and Barn. Field View Site is adjoining the Communal Fire Pit/Cook Area but has all of its own amenities as well but also is next to a two-story clubhouse with slide and porch swing (great site for kids) so it makes a great site for children! "Ridge View Site" (Site#2) is a mountainside, wooded area with many flat areas to accommodate multiple tents affording mountain views and privacy. Many areas to "spread out" and have a relaxing, peaceful, secluded camping experience. Formerly three different sites, the main site area has a wood picnic table, fire pit and cooking grate but other areas perched on the edge of a trail leading off to a fern grotto under mature pine trees or down the trail along some giant cedar trees, all of which can accommodate larger groups with multiple tents and still provide privacy. A 5 minute walk up a switchback trail or a more leisurely stroll up from the Communal Fire Pit/Cook Area along an old horse trail. Side-By-Side ATV assistance is available for pack-in/out along with a small outhouse and tool/equipment shed (new for 2022). This site is between car-camping and back-packing, you're 5 minutes from your car but you'll feel like miles away! "Pond View Site" (Site#3) is at top of the ridge and offers a beautiful view of a neighboring pond (sorry...POND NOT ACCESSIBLE, only the view) but is very secluded and private with plenty of room to spread out and accommodate multiple tents. It is truly a natural beauty and sunrise is a superbly zen experience! Chose you own site, formerly two sites, some areas offer better views or more room, view the pond from your tent opening at sunrise is spectacular! A large fire pit with cooking grate along with a wood picnic table and trash can is located on the main area of the site and as all the sites, this one can accommodate large groups as well and will afford much privacy, tranquility and seclusion. This site also is near the ridge top outhouse (new for 2022) and equipment shed and is only a 5 minute hike or 6-8 minute stroll but complimentary shuttle service via our all terrain ATV is available to help pack your gear in and out. Stroll the farm grounds, pet the dwarf goats, feed the chickens, ducks, ghinea hens and quail....they're all friendly! Take advantage of some of our complimentary amenities such as: pick your own apples and try making homemade apple cider (in-season); farm fresh eggs available right from the hens from all types of birds; fresh veggies available from our mobile farm stand (in-season) which is the old '51 farm truck; coffee/tea/bottled water is always free in the Rec Room along with plenty of area maps and trail maps! Farm-made Maple Syrup, sunflowers (in-season), and various sundries/gifts are all available at our Farm/Camp Store. Our farm, Maple Ridge Farm, in Guilford is about 4 mile drive to downtown Brattleboro but many other trails, swimming/boating/fishing holes, state parks, ice cream stands and a general stores are all within 2-3 miles away in Guilford. Stay with us and experience a truly quintessential Vermont country weekend! Many horse farms in the vicinity may offer lessons/riding nearby within 2-3 miles in and around Guilford/Brattleboro. Hike/mountain bike the abounding trails, most of which are directly across the road behind Guilford Fairgrounds! Weatherhead Hollow Pond is about 1.5 miles down the road and is approximately a mile long, offering many water sports (fishing, sunbathing, swimming, kayaking and small non-motorized boating) but there are more in every direction. *All sites are under 5 minute walk from parking area but load-in/load-out provided by host via UTV Side By Side. Parking area on property for all vehicles, near barns and Rec Room, Shower, and Outhouse. *Possible accommodations for motorcycle campers in Field View Areas only. Also, Camper Vans in and around parking area near barns (no water/sewer hook-ups and closed until the off-season), message in advance for more details for more info on accommodating small trailers and van/truck campers.

Camping at this site promises a serene escape with nature, featuring clear skies perfect for stargazing. The host, Anthony, goes above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay, offering free farm-fresh eggs and apples, as well as a game room for added enjoyment. Guests appreciate the thoughtful amenities and the peaceful, private setting, whether it's in a tent or a truck. Some campers highlighted the steep hill to the 'pond view' site, but overall, the site is well-regarded for its tranquility and hospitality.

Anthony was super awesome and hospitable. I brought my truck to camp in and they are tent only sites. He set me up in a great spot anyway and brought me. Fire ring so I could still have a fire. Free eggs and apples! Cute lil room too with coffee games and books :)

Our 4th time coming here overall and 3rd time this summer! You feel so at home and at ease here, it feels like a second home because we’ve gone so many times. Anthony and his fiancé Alfeen are wonderful people who have thought of everything needed to have a great stay. From the wagons to transport your gear to the site, less than a 5 minute walk from the car to the camp shower and game room with microwave, fridge and games-they have thought of absolutely everything. We even had the pleasure of seeing the northern lights, there is amazing stargazing opportunities here as well.
