Learn more about this land: Only 1.5 miles from our cozy little capital city, we are a six minute drive to downtown but set in a wooded landscape bordering protected land and North Branch River Park. The campsite is set away from the house and neighbors and looks down into a peaceful hemlock forest and wilderness parkland. It can accommodate up to a 9x12’ tent. Most of our property is on a slope so you'll get a little workout walking back and forth to your vehicle.Only 1.5 miles from our cozy little capital city, we are a six minute drive to downtown but set in a wooded landscape bordering protected land and North Branch River Park.

Erin and his family had such a wonderful property! It was so beautiful and quiet. The forest was lovely and we had a great time staying. We had a campfire, and they provided us wood as well as water for our stay!

Secluded Camp Spot
Tent
Beautiful camp spot in a private section of the property surrounded by conifer forest and ferns Good setup for the outhouse and composting toilet Steep path down to the area with the camp spot so be prepared for a short hike. Erin and Lindsay were very helpful and provided water and fire wood and kindling for the fire circle area. I had a wonderful stay at this site and would happily recommend turtle hill to other Hip Campers.

Secret oasis in Mont pelier
Tent
An exceptionally beautiful site, we arrived late from Canada so we had no phone service to contact the hosts, regardless of the late hour of our arrival they were more than welcoming and helped us bring our kit down to the site. The site is gorgeous and tranquil, we even saw a family of black bears! Erin and her partner made sure we had enough water and we were never worried about contacting them for recommendations, advice, or help with our stay (although none was required) I highly recommend this beautiful yet fantastically accessible site
