The property used to be part of the old Johanson farm, it was a 200 acre dairy farm a hundred years ago. when the State put in the highway (I-93) in 1961 it split the farmland in half. So now there are a hundred acres on each side of the Highway. The old stagecoach road which runs through the property from Canterbury Station to Northfield Station is now part of the main trails system. The early Pony Express riders dubbed the swamp on the land "Wolf Swamp", because there were many reports of riders seeing Wolves in the Swamp. The property is very open, although the sites are very spread out and secluded for ultimate privacy. There are several great hiking trails on the property, also used by local mountain bikers and Horseback Riding. Occasionally there will be an ATV or Dirt Bike passing through. We are located in the Heart of the local Trail system. There are several great places to swim and Kayak or Canoe literally around the corner. There are also lots of great local attractions close by, many that have Farm Stores, Shops, Homemade Gifts, Breads, Pies, Cheeses and we even have a few local Breweries. There is something for everyone, just ask and we will point you in the Right Direction.

Site 11 Jesse James Hide out
Second time staying at the Wolf Swap and will definitely be back. Excellent hosts, delivered a large pile of wood & water. Quickly responded to messages. Accommodated a large group (5 people/ 5 tents / 5 cars/ 3 dogs). Clean restrooms. Private sites. Close to mountain bike, hikes, great location.

Site 10 Sunset Hill
Great Campsite Near White Mountains
We stayed at site 10 and it was awesome! Private and wooded but plenty of space for two vehicles (including a camper truck) and a tent. The hosts delivered firewood and were great to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again.

Site 9 The Tuckaway
Outdoors camping at its best
I love the ruggedness of the sites, it feels like I'm camping in the woods rather than a public campground. The personalization of each of the port-a-potties is great! I think this is going to become a recurring thing.
