Site 6 - Humes Hill Farm

We had an incredible experience camping here! The campsites are well-maintained and tucked away, offering a real sense of privacy and seclusion. It’s the perfect spot to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature without any interruptions. The host was fantastic – friendly, responsive, and went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Whether you’re looking to relax or explore the surrounding area, this campsite is a gem. Highly recommend for anyone who values peace, quiet, and a wonderful host!

Site 3 - Humes Hill Farm

Perfect for new and experienced

Our stay here was very cute! The hosts were attentive and helpful! Our car died the next AM and they helped us out. It was close to civilization but you couldn’t tell and felt secluded. The fall colors were great! I’d def stay here again! I was bring my mom camping for the first time and she was terrified but the hosts created a great spot to make it comfortable. The bathroom though it was enclosed was a bucket but they had wood chips and it did not feel gross to use.

Site 3 - Humes Hill Farm

Great spot...A++

This is a very well maintained, private, and spacious site with a quiet atmosphere and perfect amenities for tent or RV camping. The hosts were great with communication and were very welcoming. It's a great spot to camp in Litchfield county for hikers, mountain bikers, and brewery lovers alike. Highly recommend!

Site 3 - Humes Hill Farm

Tent camping at the Humes Hill farm was amazing. We loved every second of it. The falling acorns kept us alert and smile the entire time. We actually stayed at site #5 to which Addison had invited us to. Our fire pit was super, the site private and any host communication very prompt and kind. Thank you!

Site 6 - Humes Hill Farm

Site 6 was a gem, though close to the road/farmhouse — road noise was minimal. Addison was gracious enough to have some wood for us ready. My SUV was able to traverse the terrain no problem, my friend and their sedan was fine so long as they followed the line of path. IF it’s wet or more rutted, I would be particularly cautious with ground clearance. Otherwise slow and steady, and you and your tribe are fine. Site 5 will be next on the docket, it is in my eyes more ideal: quieter, further removed, and quaint. Overall would stay here again, the scenic drive to the location was a delight.
