Be on the look out for a small sign coming in. Great spot with beautiful views and walks. Farm animals are cute and charming.

Site 2

We had a good experience at Tom's farm. Site #3 was down the hill, furthest away from the bathroom/cars, but closest to the pond and to the trail in Hibernia park. I liked that we could access the park right from our site. Tom was kind and the communication was great. We loved all the goats, ducks, geese, and all the other animals on the farm.

Site 2

Total bust

Arrived by bicycle but instructions weren't clear that brick house at end of driveway was host. Looked on porches and saw no registration materials. Could not figure out where Campsites were from description and no signs or notes were around. Tried side porch door, thinking that might be camp store and bathroon but it was locked. Called two phone numbers but no answer. Host did respond later, too late, and explained that he was pressure washing and could not hear phone. Will seek refund.
