Location
Access Road Conditions: Up a smooth and wide asphalt milled drive, that has one steep hill. For smaller rigs only, you'll back into the space but then pull out down the main drive. If you choose to park by the house you may have to back down a slightly narrow hill before you can turn around on the grass below. Check with us to see if this is an option, we may be storing a boat for a friend and have limited availability near the house. Tow Vehicle Parking Details: Rig and Tow vehicles can park on a side grassy driveway next to a small pond right off our main driveway. It's very private here, but you will hear the chickens. Alternatively, you can choose to park up near our home but be advised we have 2 young children and a dog who is very friendly. It won't be nearly as private, but you can plug into the regular 110 power at the garage if you need minimal power- can't run too much or you will trip the breakers. You need to be ok with a not-leashed farm dog around if you park at the house. (Note: this may or may not be available)

Young Family on Rustic Farm Details: Mom, Dad and 2 kids live on a quiet forested farm. We love the outdoors and are highly invested in the food we eat. We started this farm in 2017 to be conscientious consumers of plants and animals, and give our family the best life possible on a large, glorious secluded acreage on the shoreline of Connecticut. When we aren’t exploring American we love to come back home and can’t wait to share it with you! Home Town: Quaker Hill, CT Skills or Expertise to Share: We can share knowledge on raising sustainable livestock, bees, homeschooling and blacksmithing.

We had a quiet overnight. We have a 25ft RV that was tight backing in but worked out fine. Thanks for the stay!

This was our first boon docking experience and it was amazing. The long drive way lined with great tall evergreens was quite magical - right out of a storybook. Peaceful surroundings and wonderful hosts.

The host was very responsive and welcomed us down by the little pond with his kids. We stayed there overnight to catch the Cross Sound Ferry the next morning. Very convenient. You have to be somewhat skilled to back up a 25 foot RV, but we knew that from TyC ahead of time, and had no problem. Thank you TyC!

We had a peaceful night sleep at Quiet Farm. Such a pretty spot! We parked down by the pond and walked up to meet Bella the cow. Beautiful! Would recommend this convenient Boondocker. We spent the day in Mystic and a lovely night at the farm.
