Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to ADK Mountain View

Great spot! Excellent signage to the campsite. Beautiful outhouse. Slept in my car and then drove to ADK Loj about 40 minutes for a hike. Good communication and not expensive. Win win.

Weekend Trip to Outer Space

What a great spot! What a great family. When I arrived I was greeted and directed to my campsite. The campsite well kept and my firewood was there waiting for me.

3 nights at ADK Mountain View

Very pretty land with a great view of the mountains. Host was very helpful. Would come back.

1 night at Islands Base Camp

It was a really great place! Joan and Bob are so nice. Joan showed us the amenities once we arrived. I took a walk with her in the morning to go see her cows. We also bought steaks for a meal.

Weekend Trip to ADK Mountain View

Lovely site with awesome views and perfect for our two pups. Super close to a number of hiking trails as well. Definitely will be back.

Weekend Trip to Islands Base Camp

Joan and Bob are so sweet and give us a tour of the farm! We experienced sitting with the cows and drinking Snow White at the nearby winery!

Weekend Trip to Outer Space

It’s the third time I have camped here at Knotty Pines and I enjoy this site very much (which is why I keep coming back). Cara is a terrific host and replies quickly to my messages. It is so quiet here and peaceful; the perfect way to unwind with nature.

Weekend Trip to Vergennes Hilltop

Fantastic spot, easy walk into town but quiet and remote.

Weekend Trip to ADK Mountain View

Wonderful farm with easy access and nice views! Stayed in my van and rolled in late under a full moon. Nice views and great accommodations at each site. Highly recommend, will be back with the fam

Weekend Trip to Vergennes Hilltop

Very nice scenic, quiet private site on top of a hill, it was winter so didn’t get a chance to spend much time outside of the van, but would definitely stay here again. This represents the pastoral beauty of the Champlain Valley very nicely and one can walk to downtown Vergennes, which has really cool restaurants and shops.

Weekend Trip to Islands Base Camp

We loved this place! The island is amazing, it’s in a great location, and has everything you need. We got some of Joan’s local beef and ate it and it was delicious as well. Highly recommend!

2 nights at Islands Base Camp

We loved staying at this Base Island Campsite. We saw an amazing sunset pulling into the island, and enjoyed a walk along the nearby island beach overlooking Lake Champlain. We camped in cold weather but Joan and Bob were so accommodating and a firepit kept us warm! Pro tip: out Wally’s bagels for breakfast on the island

2 nights at ADK Mountain View

Excellent Place. It was beautiful and private and had everything we could have asked for. Beautiful views too. Hiway 87 is close so you can hear it sometimes but you cannot see it. It was just a 'home run' I would not hesitate to stay there again.

Islands Base Camp

2 sites · RVs, Tents180 acres · South Hero, VT

Conserved by the South Hero Land Trust, the historic Sawyer Bay Farm on the Island of South Hero was converted to grazing beef cattle. Our farm name is Health Hero Farm. We practice intensive planned grazing, moving the cattle daily to fresh grass. The herd may be near the campsites or completely out of sight, somewhere on our 180 acres. While we were building a house, we camped in the equipment shed during the summer and grew to value its convenience. Joan's enjoyment of cycling inspired her to designate the farm stand as a "bike stop" where visitors could buy a snack, get water, fix their bikes and use the unique islands amenity of a composing toilet in a converted ice fishing shack. South Hero is an agricultural island, as well as a summer tourist destination with numerous outdoor activities. It is also only a half-hour away from Burlington, and the drive is pleasurable. Pitch your tent, stow your gear under cover and explore all the islands have to offer. Yes, this is a summer destination, with great cycling, boating and swimming. We are a grass-fed beef operation, Health Hero Farm, on the island of South Hero. (You can read more about us on our farm website. ) Our farm is on the bike route around the islands, with access to many other vacation activities. Pitch your tent in the farmstead or in half of our empty equipment shed 30' x 60'. Or tool on down the farm road and be alone with the cattle and grass. In the shed, which is open on the north side, you have shelter from the rain, sun and wind. We have two campsites that can share a microwave, hot plate, refrigerator, camp sink and coffee maker in the barn. Lots of storage under roof for bikes and luggage. Our composting toilet (from Natures Head Composting Toilet) is a unique amenity -- installed in a retired ice-fishing shack (on skis). During the busy summer months, we may have a port-o-let (a.k.a. port-a-potty) with professional service. In the winter, the equipment shed not available. We rent out vehicle and boat storage in the equipment shed and cannot accommodate camping there. However, we have ample parking for RVs at any time of the year. And if you are an experienced snow camper, we have several locations to choose from. We have a farm stand where you can buy a few snacks. If you want to try our beef, we'll be happy to show you our freezers. We are 2 miles from a convenience store that packs an amazing array of products into a small space. We are close to a gem of a public beach, a winery (Snow Farm Vineyard), apple orchards, a public school playground, and miles of scenic driving. Local farmers markets on Wednesdays and Saturdays offer some of the best produce from these agricultural islands. We also own 1000' frontage on Lake Champlain, which you may enjoy. It is difficult to access, but affords privacy and serenity. We allow campfires on the gravel areas of the farm and on the beach, where you can gather dead wood. If you want to host a large group, you will need to reserve both campsites and rent a port-o-let (Vermont's lingo for porta-potty) if we don't already have one. Additional fees might apply. There is no RV electrical hookup; however, the equipment shed has electric outlets for your use. Additional fees apply for energy intensive appliances, such as heaters or air conditioners. There is no water hookup; however, we can fill your tanks with a hose from a potable water supply. Generators are not allowed, unless you are sufficiently distanced from other campers and our neighbors. Other accommodations may be available. Just ask! We have many resources, and want you to have a great visit.

Adirondack Magic

4 sites · RVs25 acres · Elizabethtown, NY

We are located in the High Peaks of the Adirondacks between Lake Champlain and Lake Placid. The area is legendary for a multitude of hiking trails, mountain biking, and lakes/rivers for paddling. There are amazing natural environments such as Ausable Chasm and it's also an area rich in American historical sites. We are centrally located making area events and popular destinations an easy drive. We are also close to Rt 87 for ease of access yet far enough away to enjoy plenty of quiet and space in nature. The 2 RV site areas are very large with ample space for large RV turnaround and parking for vehicle. We are 300 feet off a road and are surrounded by small hamlets and villages within the park. There is so much to do in this vacation wonderland. Enjoy local breweries and vineyards during your visit. In addition, most every drive is a scenic drive and traffic is almost nonexistent except in some areas during high tourism. You will love it here! We do! The Adirondack Park (ADK) consists of old growth forests that cover more than 100,000 acres of public land in the Park and we live in the park. The Adirondacks also includes the headwaters of five major drainage basins. Lake Champlain and the Hudson, Black, St. Lawrence and Mohawk Rivers all draw water from the Adirondack Park. Adirondack forests and wetlands filter and provide clean water for many communities in NY.
