Site 7 - Birds Eye View Vermont

David was a kind and welcoming host, delivering firewood and letting us in on the local swimming spot. Located in a gorgeous open clearing full of goldenrod, surrounded by neighboring forest. There were 7 camp sites nearly fully booked, all of which were a good distance apart but since the property is so open sound does carry from all across the campsite. Not ideal if you’re the type who is sensitive to sound and are tent camping with little sound barrier. The fire ring can be moved wherever you want so it’s pretty customizable how you want to have your set up, though we had a hard time finding a level spot to put our tent, and it seemed most of the sites were on a similar incline. Overall, a nice place to rest after exploring central Vermont.

David was extremely accomodating upon arrival. Wood is very well priced for $10 you can get enough for two nights of fire.

Site 5 - Birds Eye View Vermont

The campground & the sites are nothing special…. It was also difficult to find a place that was level to put the tent and there isn’t a lot of privacy from other sites. There were bones left all around our site too, which my dog kept finding & I was nervous he’d choke on them. Those should have been cleaned up from previous guests if the upkeep of the property was what it should be. The host also sold me some wood that was wet & I wasn’t able to use it for a fire… nice guy & he communicated well prior to my arrival but I didn’t appreciate being sold wet wood.
