Camp sites are on a 16-acre hayfield nestled in the woods alongside the West River, with valley views and direct access to Route 30. My glassblowing studio is just across the road with a gallery, weekly demos and glass blowing classes offered. Local grocery store and gas station is minutes away. Gravel access road is steep so be careful entering and exiting. We can host RV and larger trailers behind the glass blowing studio. Fishing, tubing and swimming along the river. Great state parks nearby with hiking. Swimming holes minutes from the camp site. We have farm tours every Saturday along with maple syrup classes and glassblowing classes thru Airbnb experiences; ask us for a link.
Nestled by the river, Robert's campsite offers a serene escape with a touch of artistry from the nearby glassblowing studio. Campers appreciate the private and tranquil atmosphere, with the soothing sounds of the river enhancing the experience. While the site is generally well-maintained and accessible, some visitors mentioned challenges with overgrown vegetation and site identification. Overall, it's a peaceful spot with the convenience of nearby amenities, perfect for those looking to blend nature with a bit of local culture.
We camped in a snowstorm when most other Hipcamps we talked to were inaccessible. While the scenic camp spots down by the river would have been my normal preference, the spot near the glass blowing shop met our needs. Robert's location is along Rt. 30 which takes priority for snow removal over lesser roads. This allowed us to reach his spot during very snowy conditions. Would come back in the warmer months in hopes of reserving a spot by the river. Side note, Robert is an amazing glass blowing artist!
This is a very nice and convenient place to stay. We have taken a glass blowing class in the past and it was a fantastic experience. I look forward to coming back!
We loved tent camping on Robert’s land. It was near a river which was fun to explore and our site was close walking distance to the compost toilet. It was a bit noisy at night because of the nearby road, but the river sounds drowned out most of it and created a peaceful environment. The fire pit was well contained and picnic table was awesome for food prep and eating! We brought a larger container to store water, but there is a hose across the street to refill if needed. This was great for cleanup! We took a glass blowing class and maple syrup class during our stay and absolutely loved both. Such educational and fun experiences you wouldn’t typically find camping. Robert was responsive and had recommendations for local events. He was friendly and super accommodating, even adding a glass class in for our group! Would stay here again!
Robert has a great property that allows for peace and quiet down by the river.
