amazing views and animals!

My girlfriend, some friends and I spent the weekend at Eric’s farm and it was amazing!!! The bathroom and showers felt so clean and the view from our car camping site was gorgeous! He was quick to message me back if i needed anything during my stay as well. The goats, cats and dog were a huge plus and made our stay so much nicer. This is by far the best campsite i have been to!!

Camping on Eric's land was lovely! We had a beautiful private site overlooking the pond, my daughter loved seeing the goats (especially the babies!). Directions were helpful. Thanks to Eric for a great weekend getting back to nature :)

Beautiful camping spot on a working farm. Our camping spot was large and not too close to anyone else. It was on a bit of a slant, but we found a fairly level spot. Had a great fire pit and we bought wood for $10. The goats were very cute!

We enjoyed Eric's farm land. What a beautiful setting and we'll maintained site. We tent camped and it was great to have access to a dishwashing sink, shower, and very clean composting toilet. We've earmarked it for somewhere to stay next time as well!

Beautiful camp site nestled in the woods that felt private but also spacious. We were at the spot right next to the pond. Brought our fishing rods and caught a big bass! The goats were so cute to cuddle with and guardian dog Hester was a treat. We loved staying here! Also very convenient that they had a sink, firewood, and a shower. Thank you Eric!!

Camping on the property at The Hempstead at Mountain Dale Farm was wonderful. The firewood and eggs we pre-purchased were set up and ready for us. Eric's mom greeted us. We enjoyed the resident goats, cats, dogs, and chickens. The composting toilet outhouse was clean and well appointed. We would definitely come back. Our only suggestions are to have better signage (especially if you arrive at night) and to add a picnic table to each site.
