With 2000 secluded feet on the spectacular Tomifobia river in the Eastern Townships, Riverstone Farm is the perfect camping getaway for nature lovers of all ages.
Enjoy the quiet shores of the Tomifobia on site or venture out- There is lots to do in this part of the Eastern Townships minutes from the Vermont border. Hike Mount Orford, Mount Pinnacle in Barnston or the Coaticook Gorge, spend the day at the beach- Lakes Lister, Massawippi and Memphremagog are nearby or cross the border into Vermont and swim in the clear waters of lake Willoughby. There is also golf at Dufferin heights, cycling paths, shopping and quaint villages to explore. I would be delighted to help you plan some activities to make the most of your visit.
A recently planted, fenced in food forest with picnic tables is the perfect place to watch the sunset as you let your dogs run free, while trails in the forest allow you the opportunity to explore the forested area by the river.
A fire pit, two picnic tables with umbrellas, four Adirondak chairs, washrooms offer additional amenities to enjoy your stay.
Please note that though I only accept 1 group of campers per visit so you can enjoy your intimacy in the evenings with your friends and family, you will not have exclusive use of the food forest during the day as I may need to attend to my trees for weeding, harvesting or other. Most guests leave at some point for an outing so schedules can easily be coordinated.
Extras include: a $5 per pet extra charge, $5 hot coffee morning service, $100 private yoga class in my yoga tent and $10 local maple syrup. Please note that the base rental price includes 2 people so any more (for a maximum of 6) are charged $10 per person.Version Française ci-dessous

Delightful spot - very private. We loved having the fenced in area to allow our dog off leash. The fire pit, Adirondack chairs and picnic table are perfect.

Glorious Dark nights
Tent · With pets
The perfect private camping site for rustic camping. A budding orchard is being cared for with a high fence, so it's safe for dogs to romp. The sky is truly dark, billions and billions of stars. I got great aurora photographs. Nicole is a fantastic host! We went to see the orchestra in Derby Line at the opera house!

We had a great time! The site is magnificient. Open ground for the camp site, very intimate and a beautiful forest along the river. The kids loved playing in the water and climbing on rocks. We had the chance to have a clear night with stunning stargazing. The hosts were very welcoming. Thanks to Nicole and Robert to share this land.
