    Family-friendly
    Recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp is great for families and kids.

    Why buy a home when you can build a fairytale? Hi, I'm Curt. My wife Ani, son Fitch, and I are your average, everyday nonconformists who have been running an experiment. We are trying to figure out if a family can use their own hands and some grit to handcraft a life that you don't need a vacation from. Or better yet, that you would vacation to. Have we done that? You be the judge. About 4 years ago we left our South Florida handcrafting furniture business to pursue this new goal. We set out to build an inspiring experience in simple, eco-friendly living that would find a harmony between some of the old fashioned world that we'd found ourselves missing, and the handful of modern advancements that were actually beneficial. All while keeping it classy. At Heirloom Hamlet, you will see us designing unique, functional cabins, installing solar, composting, planting, and building toilets that are better for our environment. We're bread baking, pasta making, timber milling, woodworking, clay-forming and metal pounding. The goal is to evolve into a small world of self-reliance and harmony with nature. Ani and I are big believers in being mindful and respectful of our environment wherever reasonable. So, we are incorporating both alternative and municipal utilities as they can fit into our homestead design and limited budget. Through good design, our goal is to show just how "normal" small living can feel. We all have personal priorities and those will vary greatly, and that's okay. But no person should be so self-absorbed that we have completely shut out the importance of being respectfully mindful to the earth and to our fellowman. After all, if we don't have that, what do we have? To be completely transparent, though, the creatives in us also would like it if we inspired onlookers to possibly look at their own space and life a little bit differently. We've personally found it to be so fulfilling to distinguish real desires and needs from the ones we've been groomed to pursue, and then work to make them a reality. We've found it energizing to witness our fellowmen and women pursuing a dream. We'd like to be a stimulating memory along any person's journey. Visiting with us, we sure hope our guests don't expect to find a corporate approach to life here, and that they can appreciate some of our old-fashioned ways. That, as our paths cross, we won't be held to a business-first standard that we have worked hard to remove ourselves from. We realize everyone has a right to be themselves, but our presentation at Heirloom Hamlet has been purposefully designed to be a refreshing hideaway from the norm.

    We found Curt's Hipcamp the perfect stopover! Only a few minutes from 95. Easy directions. Great host. Highly recommend the wonderful clean, well designed outdoor shower ! It was a refreshing way to start the day! Site was also clean and well marked. We will definitely visit again in our travels.

    Stopped here with our Sprinter Van while travelling northbound on Rt 95 Access was easy, the location was as described. Curtis was an amazing host. We really appreciated the time he spent showing us around and chatting. The bath house was an unexpected bonus. We've been on the road for a few weeks now, and staying here was a highlight.

    The Hampton Hamlet is a wonderful amd quiet place to come and relax. Curt and his family have a created a beautiful welcoming place with a lot of creative and hard work.. Getting my 40ft 5th wheel in and ouy was a breeze with Curts guidance and the full hookups were too easy. It was almost like our camper had been their before haha. We can't wait to come back.

    Curt and his family were so unbelievably welcoming. We had such a lovely weekend at this site. We did the no hookup spot and we brought our camping chairs. We had a lovely fire and enjoyed walking around the property. The bathhouse is so nice. Lovely outdoor shower. Thank you so much to you and your family for hosting us!

    Americano: Bath House / No Hookups
    I booked this site specifically for the write up as we were only an hour from our destination! If you haven't read it yet and came straight to the reviews....go back and read it! But what we got from stying here was much more than we expected! When we pulled in the driveway we saw a very familiar looking pup! I immediately called my daughter telling her they had a pup that looks exactly like Curt and Ani's! After a long conversation we found they shared a birthday and they were likely littermates....half the litter being sent to MD, where our daughter got her pup, and the other half in SC, where Curt got his pup! The property is beautiful! The bathhouse was clean and refreshing! We do plan on returning!

    We loved Heirloom Hamlet! We stayed on the primitive site in our van but had easy access to the toilet and hot shower. Honestly the shower should be one of the highlights of the property. It adds more of a spa feel than just a basic amenity as you look up into the pines towering overhead while hot water flows from the rain shower head. This property is great for dogs. We brought our dog on his first camping trip and let him play in the fenced in dog park. He also met a couple friends while there. The added wall in our camping area was a nice addition to make it feel more private and closed off from the road behind it. The ancient oak tree in the middle of the property really brought a feeling of reverence that couldn't be replicated by man's effort. It is truly a site to behold. Curt and his family have built something really special here, where people will come and stay for month's at a time. It's a beautiful, well-maintained property that I would recommend to anyone passing through or looking to stay a while. Thanks for a great stay!
