Turtle Marsh- secluded wooded site.

5 sites · Lodging30 acres · Unity, ME

Great synchronicity led us to the wild 30 acres of marsh and woodland that is Turtle Marsh. In addition to making a home here, we dedicating the area as a sanctuary for the quiet enjoyment of nature, eco-spiritual practices and healing. Guests may elect to experience a daily hour-long "Ecospiritual Immersion" walk as part of their stay. These will be led by Ecospiritual Guide and "Wild Mind, Wild Heart" author, Peter Wohl. He has led ecospiritual workshops and retreats for over 20 years. There is a network of trails on our property for enjoying quiet, contemplative walks. In the evenings, weather permitting, there will also be an opportunity for an informal campfire discussion with Peter. There is an additional fee for the walks and campfires. There are several trailheads for the Hills to Sea Trail within a mile of our property. The quintessential New England waterfront town of Belfast on Penobscot Bay, is less than 30 minutes away. One of our favorite spots for quiet hikes along the shore of the bay, is Sears Island. It is one of the largest undeveloped islands on the east coast, that is connected to the mainland by a causeway. The island is 50 minutes away and even on the busiest summer days, its's usually possible to find a quiet spot on the shore to sit and reflect. As we continue to deepen our relationship with this land, we are trying to follow the principles of Deep Ecology in all of our interactions. Our tentsite, while only a 5 minute walk from the road, has been sited to offer as much solitude as possible, with minimal disruption to the surroundings. In spite of being nestled in the woods, no trees were cut to prepare this relatively accessible site. We believe that it still offers a very tangible sense of wildness and solitude. Turn your time away into a transformative and healing experience, as you connect more deeply to the natural world. We hope that you will enjoy the experience of Turtle Marsh as much as we do.

Tir na nOg Farm

6 sites · Lodging, Tents30 acres · Pownal, ME

Highland cattle graze at the forest's edge on our Celtic-heritage farm: a gentle retreat with options for woodland wandering, farm-fresh breakfasts (weekdays only, must be requested one week in advance), and campfires complete with traditional Gaelic music! Our 40-acre farm includes heritage-breed animals, organic gardens, and over 30 acres of conservation woodlands. We favor scythes over tractors--your stay will be quiet and fume-free! Bradbury Mountain and several trail networks are nearby, along with rivers, ocean beaches, and an excellent locavore food scene. Since the early 1800s, this land on the edge of Chandler Brook has nourished bodies and spirits alike. Sloping pastures meet well-managed woodlands, making this a haven for both humans and wildlife. Since the 1980s, we have worked to restore the soil and make a "hand-built" life as farmers using pre-industrial organic methods. We maintain pollinator habitats, tend an orchard of heirloom-variety fruit trees, and conserve rare heritage-breed animals, including Tamworth pigs and Scottish Highland Cattle. Our shared love for Celtic folk culture has blended naturally with our love of sustainable agriculture to create Tir na nOg Farm. Today, the work of restoration continues with the help of farm partners, family, friends, WWOOFers, and other volunteers. This land is already better than we found it, but we hope it will remain a gathering-ground of culture and agriculture, tradition and innovation for generations to come.

What this location offers is that it is centrally located to mountains, oceans, lakes,concert venues, restaurants, nightlife, shopping and antiquing. Traveling to NH and Massachusetts is a day trip. A few hours and your in central Maine. Cross the border into Canada. So much to explore or just relax. Stay a few nights or stay the season. 2023 is off to a great camping season. Already meeting new campers. Hopefully I'll see some familiar faces from 2022. A few upgrades. There is an outside water faucet, an outlet and an outside shower...hot and a privacy fence. There is a bathroom/shed that contains a bucket compost toilet. A compost bag and shavings/leaves/moss provided. The tent sites are off grid with a few conveniences.

The Bell Tent At Honey & Stem Farm

1 site · Lodging9 acres · Fryeburg, ME

Get away from it all when you stay under the stars in our 3 season bell tent on Honey & Stem Flower Farm in Fryeburg, Maine. The tent is on a small raised platform, so you are less likely to get water underneath in the event of rain. With views of farm animals (and usually some deer) while sleeping in front of the open field across from the garden and ducks, enjoy a small getaway with the luxury of a real queen size bed (not a deflating air mattress!), while still getting that "off grid camping" experience. The field is not far from the road (Route 5), so you will inevitably hear the cars drive by. With solar lighting, rocking chairs, a small phone charging station, a fire pit, and a table for two, its the perfect camping set up where you don't actually have to set everything up! Bathroom: We will have a small bathroom tent set up with a bucket toilet for an emergency bathroom, but no formal portable toilet set up/ portable toilet. The woods are also a short walk from the tent spot, however we kindly ask that you properly dig and bury should you use this, as we do have 3 dogs of our own on the property. Please note: This is a working farm and there will be people working in the garden and feeding animals from 7 am to 6 pm daily. They will respect your privacy and maintain quiet hours until 8 am. We can't promise the Rooster or Sheep will keep quiet hours though. Please also note: Farm animals can be smelly, its all part of the farm experience, we do our best to maintain animal shelters to keep this smell at bay but some animals, like pigs, may be smelly regardless. We are happy to bring you coffee at 7:30 or 8 am at your request. We can leave this in a thermos on the small table by the tent (Refer to the coffee gift basket image). We offer a "breakfast basket, with a thermos of hot coffee or hot tea and a half dozen farm fresh eggs, We can accommodate sugar along with dairy free and regular creamer with an advanced request. We also offer a "smores" basket to purchase at your request If you'd like to purchase some farm fresh eggs or other produce, please just shoot us a message. Our farm stand is no longer located on the farm, but now at our secondary location in town Fryeburg, but we are happy to provide these elements to you and we actually keep a fridge in the Garden Shed, across from the tent location, which we can store items in for you at your request. We will have a small cooler available for your use upon request, just bring your own ice. We look forward to hosting you on our small Family Farm!

Turtle Marsh- secluded wooded site.

Great synchronicity led us to the wild 30 acres of marsh and woodland that is Turtle Marsh. In addition to making a home here, we dedicating the area as a sanctuary for the quiet enjoyment of nature, eco-spiritual practices and healing. Guests may elect to experience a daily hour-long "Ecospiritual Immersion" walk as part of their stay. These will be led by Ecospiritual Guide and "Wild Mind, Wild Heart" author, Peter Wohl. He has led ecospiritual workshops and retreats for over 20 years. There is a network of trails on our property for enjoying quiet, contemplative walks. In the evenings, weather permitting, there will also be an opportunity for an informal campfire discussion with Peter. There is an additional fee for the walks and campfires. There are several trailheads for the Hills to Sea Trail within a mile of our property. The quintessential New England waterfront town of Belfast on Penobscot Bay, is less than 30 minutes away. One of our favorite spots for quiet hikes along the shore of the bay, is Sears Island. It is one of the largest undeveloped islands on the east coast, that is connected to the mainland by a causeway. The island is 50 minutes away and even on the busiest summer days, its's usually possible to find a quiet spot on the shore to sit and reflect. As we continue to deepen our relationship with this land, we are trying to follow the principles of Deep Ecology in all of our interactions. Our tentsite, while only a 5 minute walk from the road, has been sited to offer as much solitude as possible, with minimal disruption to the surroundings. In spite of being nestled in the woods, no trees were cut to prepare this relatively accessible site. We believe that it still offers a very tangible sense of wildness and solitude. Turn your time away into a transformative and healing experience, as you connect more deeply to the natural world. We hope that you will enjoy the experience of Turtle Marsh as much as we do.
