Great visit to Sunrise Farm this Memorial Day weekend! Site was clean, wood ready for us for our late Friday arrival and Roy was very helpful in assisting us to get right to the site.
The sites all provide some privacy, but close enough to meet people and interact. The land is beautiful and the view from the farm house is breathtaking. Dover is a fantastic area with something for everyone.
This site (#4) was fantastic
Plenty of room for 12 by 12 tent and 10 by 10 canopy with plenty of room to spare.
I'd reccomend 4 wheel drive for the sites down the hill
Hard a tough time getting back up after it rained the night before
We had a great time
Plenty of wild life to see...listen to
And plenty of space between sites down the hill
Very private
Such a great spot and fantastic host! Views for days and wonderful ponds and lands to enjoy and steward for your visit on them.
Peace and tranquility abounds! I was the only one here to start with. The gentle burble of the pond was a lovely night background sound. The peepers are just starting up. The views can't be beat.
The space is lovely and well supplied/thought out. If you need something and haven't got it chances are Roy has it available to rent. He is very amenable and the map and directions are very clear.
I arrived after dark and had no issue finding the spot. Roy was descriptive and helpful.
Absolutely breathtaking views, wonderful hiking, beautiful ponds, above and beyond hospitality, and thoughtful amenities. Roy is an incredible host and seems to have thought about everything. I will stay here again and again and again!
So remote, peaceful, and gorgeous in all the fall colors!! Roy was extremely helpful and communicative, he made the stay easy and breezy. Would love to come back!
Wonderful spot on a quiet and spacious farm. Roy made us feel welcome and right at home.
It was absolutely gorgeous and I would definitely go back! And the wild turkeys are a hoot.
If you don't have 4wheel or all wheel drive and really good tires, I do not advise trying to drive down the meadow at night as the grass is long but flat and dewey making it very slippery. I had difficulty even trying to turn around to go back up. Luckily nobody was camped at the first spot at the top of the hill where the picnic table was and Roy was nice enough to let me stay there for the night.
