Follow us on Instagram @shitefootfarms As always we are excited and can't wait to share our place with you! We are a small farmette with goats, chickens, ducks, fruits, veggies, and Irish Wolfhounds. The 1.3 acre parcel across the street from the house and farm has a forested peninsula that the A-frame is located on. Our street ends in a small stream that continues to separate the farmstead from the A-frame site. Come stay in our tiny rustic A frame cabin built of mostly reclaimed materials. Enjoy being across the stream and over the bridge from the main house on a private peninsula. Enjoy the privacy of a "single site" camp! Use the fire pit, grill, outdoor wood stove, single burner butane stove or umm the bathroom :) without having to leave your site! Please be aware we are in town and you may hear road noise, lawn mowers, dogs, ect. You may also see and hear wildlife ex; deer, beavers, ducks, muskrats, rabbits, geese, foxes, and coyotes. We encourage native plants and work to provide a sanctuary for many threatened bird species. The cabin is 100sq. feet with sloping interior walls the flip up side wall is permanently open and screened in. There is no running water or electricity so unplug and unwind. A place to plug in and the water spigot a short stroll from your cabin in the driveway The cabin has a a full size mattress with sheets, blankets, throws and pillows. Lanterns, cooking utensils, camp mugs and camp coffee pot are provided. Please request the cast iron skillet and butane burner, it will not be in the cabin if you do not ask for it. You are also welcome to set up your own tent. Please note cleared space is limited and the tent should be a 1-3 person smaller tent. Outside on the deck are tiki torches, woodstove and bistro table. There is a hammock, picnic table, and 2 sets of outdoor chairs at your site. We do not have a swimming hole but the town beach is 5 minutes away and requires a day pass. If you forget something you are a short walk to Cumbies, and several farms, bakeries and a large grocer are a very short drive away. Venture farther (10 minutes) to one of the nearby hiking trails. We are within 15 minutes of the Blackstone Gorge, Southern New England Trunkline Trail, Cornier Woods, Franklin State Forest, Wojcik Farm, Cook's Valley Farm, the New England Bonsai Museum, Diamond Hill Vineyards, Caroline's Cannabis, Shire Conservation Area, New England Country Club, and many stables. The Commuter Rail to Boston, Wrentham Premium Outlets, and a Drive-in Theater are within 30 minutes. Use us as a base to explore Blackstone Valley, Boston and Worcester!!

Rustic A Frame by the water
Cute little hidden gem! A welcoming private space, tucked into a suburban town. The A-frame was the perfect size for 3 girls and two dogs. Jae had it fully stocked with everything you could need for a comfortable and convenient escape.

We spent the night in the the AFrame and had a wonderful time. We brought our own fire wood and our host provided a propane stove that we utilized for cooking dinner and breakfast. You truly feel secluded even though you are minutes from many stores. A highlight was watching the moon move through the sky while lying in bed and eating breakfast on the deck by the water. This is similar to rustic camping with the outhouse and open sleeping quarters- everything was clean and we were pleased with what was provided. We also appreciated that our host took the time to look up and provide us with information on the area and activities to do.

Very refreshing and peaceful
It was very peaceful and refreshing. We saw an otter the first day swimming by us on the river. I’m glad we saw the huge snake in the water as we were leaving, and not earlier. We had no trouble with mosquitos, surprisingly. I loved the little wood stove on the dock, although it took a long time to cook on, but we were into having a slow morning anyways.

Jae was a perfect hostess - communicative, attentive to details and really went above and beyond to make sure i had what I needed to make my stay at the A-frame perfect. As noted in other reviews, the lodging itself is on a tiny “river” with lots of wildlife nearby, but it is close enough to amenities to make everything really convenient. I look forward to visiting again!
