Excellent place to camp for the family!

We will definitely keep Brookledge in mind for future vacation stays. The quiet woods, our host was very friendly, the estate was very well kept and organized. The nostalgia of the cabins was great!

Relaxing home away from home

This is our 3rd time at Brookledge and we cannot wait to go back! It was our first time staying at the Crook Brook Cabin specifically and is one of our favorite places to stay at Brookledge. We enjoyed the relaxing views of the pond in the morning while sipping our coffee on the front porch and spending time by the campfire at night with friends. The cabin had everything we needed and was perfect for our weekend getaway.

Incredibly special place to stay

We had an amazing time staying at the Crook Brook Cabin! The entire grounds were absolutely breathtaking. The pond that we could see from our cabin was so peaceful and serene. We enjoyed using the paddle boat and reading about the story of “Brookledge!”. It makes it so much more special to stay in a unique place like this that has history and a story! My friend and I both said we’d love to go back for a long weekend getaway with our partners. We would recommend this place to anyone and would love to come back.

Acorns

We were very happy here! Everything we needed, the cabin was outfitted and decorated smartly. The grounds were beautiful, loved the lighted fountain and fish in the pond. Acorns and rain falling on the metal roof…just maybe consider replacing the plastic pod coffee maker with old school pour over style. Thank you for creating such a wonderful place.

Fabulous Getaway

My family (2 adults, 2 boys - 6 and 8) stayed at the Crook Brook Cabin for 2 nights and wish we booked longer. It was beyond adorable and a perfect mix of off the grid feel with comfortable amenities, especially for a non-camper like me! Kids loved feeding the fish, trying out the canoe and playing old school games. Looking forward to a return visit in the future.

Cozy and cute stay

This was a really fun stay. My friend and I really enjoyed the campgrounds, the cabin was super cute and had towels, and airfryer, a hot plate, fridge and freezer, water. It was very peaceful. Also even though there are other cabins on the property, it is very private. You are very close to the water, pavilion and bathhouse. The only downside is that if you don’t drive, it will be very expensive to get around by rideshares.

Perfect Girls Getaway!

Spent two nights in the Crook Brook Cabin and couldn't have been more perfect. It exceeded every possible expectation. From morning coffee on the front porch to a private movie at the pavilion next to a “roaring” fire, this glamping experience is something I can’t wait to relive. Thanks Helen for being such a wonderful host!

Perfect weekend getaway

What a perfect little camping cabin as we called it. For starters it was very well kept, the whole property. The pond was tranquil and the woods paths were enchanting. My son and dog loved walking the property and exploring. We fed the fish and paddled around the pond on the canoe. The beds are comfy and the sleep was deep. We came to have a nice getaway weekend and that’s exactly what we got. I would highly recommend the camping cabin to anyone a fan of the above. 5stars all the way around!
