Elisa is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

You have your choice of camping with your van or small RV, small trailer or tent, in a level, forested area (not lakeside) with picnic table and fire pit, or tenting lakeside with water views, picnic table and fire pit, or both! You have access to both, one reservation comes with both spots, so you can enjoy the lakeside regardless of where you sleep. Vehicles cannot reach the tent site, it is a steep trail about a 150 feet. Although our campsite is near the lake, you cannot drive to the water from the campsite. It is a steep, short hike down to the water. There is one canoe at the campsite you are free to use. Bring your own bring canoes, kayaks and/ or paddle boards to enjoy the superb water. There are no motor boats on the lake, so the paddling and swimming is great. There are three private homes on the lake, adjacent to where your site it located so we ask that no loud partying, play music only quietly and no generators. There are no campers on either side of your campsite, we only offer one, campsite. There is a nice, clean outhouse and no other amenities (Tier D in HipCamp-speak). No on site water but it can be obtained at our house, just ask. We have a dog on the property, who is friendly and off leash. If having a dog come visit would be a problem for you, please don't make a reservation. If you plan on bringing a dog please let us know. No more than two dogs allowed.Great spot for paddling, fishing, swimming and walking in the woods.

We contacted Elisa to ask if we could use this site to go canoeing. She agreed and we completed the reservation. Around 5AM on the morning of, I received a text telling us not to come due to high winds, so we didn’t go. I asked for a refund because it was the host who advised us not to show up. I still have not received a refund or response from Elisa and we never got to use our reservation. At first I appreciated the heads up and genuinely thought she was just looking out, but now we feel scammed and would advise caution to other people booking.

Loved our stay here! Just outside of Morrisville and not too far from Stowe. The outhouse was super clean. We loved waking up near the lake and taking the canoe for a little spin. So beautiful in the fall.

Camping in Vermont! PERFECTION

Tent · Group trip

We had an absolute wonderful time! Elisas campsite was perfect and she was so accommodating. The only problem was that we didn't stay at least a couple more nights. We will be back! AMAZING

Really wonderful spot!! Hosts are very welcoming and the sites are awesome. The outhouse was immaculate. Access to the lake was great with the canoe; it’s a fairly large lake to explore and was quite beautiful with the fall colors. We will definitely be back!

Camping on the Res!

Tent

Elisa’s property is amazing! I wanted to camp near/at green river reservoir and this turned out to be the perfect option. It’s tucked into a nice spot on the res with great sense of privacy. It’s also a great option if you don’t have kayaks/canoes to camp out on the state park’s sites . Elisa went out of her way to make us comfortable and also provided us peace and quiet to enjoy our time. It’s a very short walk to the site from the car, just 2 min walking, and the spot is great for swimming and the canoe is a great addition. One note is that Google Maps has the wrong location (it brings you to Puckerbrush West off of Center Road 15 min away). My Maps app on my iPhone has the correct location though. It’s off of Garfield road onto Stevens Lane, and then bear left onto Patnoe farm. I can’t wait to be back!

Camping next to fabulous canoing

20 ft campervan

Lovely quiet spot. Great amenities. Relatively flat parking space for our van. Only had to use two levelers. Comfortable and clean outhouse. A very chill location...bring your most comfortable chairs for lounging. Easy river access via a path down to the waters edge to amazing paddling. The aluminum canoe provided was a plus. Very beautiful surrounding area to explore. Recommend Elmore Mountain hike. We would go back and bring tent camping friends to use the included camping site by the water. Highly recommend!
