Testimonials

From the very first day at the farm and forest camp, it was clear that my child was embarking on an extraordinary adventure. The camp counselors, Sierra and Pollux, were exceptional in every way. Their enthusiasm was infectious, keeping all the children, including my own, engaged and brimming with excitement.
Each evening, my child returned home with a treasure trove of stories, each more captivating than the last. From the joy of Water Day to the pride of preparing her own healthy snack, the experiences were both fun and enriching. The educational activities were thoughtfully designed, providing hands-on learning that was both meaningful and memorable.
A highlight for my child was learning about tractors and the intricacies of farm life. It was more than just play; it was an introduction to the responsibilities and rewards of caring for the land and its animals.
The camp’s setting was nothing short of idyllic. Stepping onto the property, you could feel the care and dedication that went into creating such a nurturing environment. It was a place where safety and fun coexisted seamlessly, where parents could leave their children knowing they were in good hands.
I wholeheartedly recommend this camp to any parent looking for a place where their child can grow, learn, and thrive amidst nature. The farm and forest camp is not just a camp; it’s a community, a classroom, and a playground all rolled into one magical experience.

Just had another wonderful visit to Stanley’s Farm with my son. Lots to do at a very reasonable one time price. Added a super pancake lunch with excellent fixings, including their amazing maple syrup, worth every penny. Great to support a local tradition. Thanks see you again soon!

We would like to express our appreciation to Earl, Kathy and their staff for hosting our son, Cory’s, Celebration of Life. It is times like this that bring us together and their thoughtfulness during this difficult time goes above and beyond.

It was great to get a tour of a working farm. My 9-year-old loved the Christmas Village and checking out the livestock. The gift shop had a delicious selection of farm-fresh food we are still enjoying. Thanks all!

Congratulations on 30 years Earl and family!
30 years is an amazing feat. So much has happened locally and around the world in 30 years. Covid, ice storms, relationships, staffing, mothers of the bride, long commutes and countless other challenges that I’m not even aware of. Through it all you persevered. You employed so many and in turn created a life for them. Over 30 years you took many risks and kept reinventing Stanley Farms. Keeping a business fresh over so many years is a challenge in itself.

Hope you get some rest and hope you have as many more years as you wish.

I just don’t have enough words to describe how amazing Kathy, Earl and their whole team at Stanley’s have been to us as we planned our daughter’s wedding. During the COVID pandemic, they were wonderfully understanding and always very accommodating in all their efforts, constantly working with us and providing us with positive suggestions and ideas to make sure our experience turned out exactly how we hoped it to be.
The food is locally sourced and incredible. The service was excellent. Exactly what you would want for a special occasion.
I would never hesitate to recommend Stanley’s for those looking for an exceptionally warm and comfortable experience whether it’s for your wedding day or any other special occasion. They exceeded all our expectations and we thank them very much.

We went on Sun 15 2020 for brunch with our daughter and family. It was very well organized especially with the fears of the virus happening. The meal was delicious and we enjoyed the farm and artisan market. We will return next year.

My husband and I recently got married at Stanley’s and we couldn’t have been happier with our big day! Everything from the venue, the food and staff, was absolutely amazing! We have also been going to Stanley’s every few years for sugarbush season and have never been disappointed. We highly recommend Stanley’s!

Wanted to write my first review ever.
We have been enjoying going to Stanley’s every year for 7 years now for kids Christmas party organized by my husband’s work. Every year kids looking forward to activities and Santa and we looking forward to enjoy our delicious breakfast .

Had my work’s Christmas party here on Sunday and thought that it was ran very well. Staff here are great and are very tentative to their duties.
My kids thoroughly enjoyed their breakfast, waffles and sausages were a big hit.
Both loved the horse and carriage ride and time in the barn seeing the animals. Had there been any snow then they would have had the skis on the rides instead of wheels. Had they had enough time they would have played in the play structure.
We spent some time in the gift shop and came out happy with some treats. Pricing was surprisingly excellent considering gift shops at other places.
My wife and I especially enjoy coming here every Christmas to take our annual picture on some stone steps in their front yard where we got married in 2007.
Thank you for a wonderful morning.

Great spot for an event, big or small! From the horse drawn wagon through the Christmas Village to the gift shop with their warm up spot enjoying a well needed cup of hot chocolate, everything was very well laid out. Staff were extremely courteous and friendly. Elves were great with kids playing games and touring around the village. Definitely a place where you can create memories for people of ages. If you have kids who are excited for the big day when Santa comes, don’t miss the opportunity to show them where it all starts! 1 more week to create memories!
My family and I will return especially for their home made maple syrup!

My first kids Christmas party at Stanley’s and we loved it. Started with photos with an amazing Santa and Mrs. Claus, followed by a yummy breakfast. We loved the waffles especially. My daughter enjoyed the free roaming ducks and geese and going on the horse drawn carriage. Great play structure in the center overlooking their horses. Lots to do for the kiddies! had a great time, thank you!

We had a 280 person wedding that was very personalized. It was great to work with the team at Stanley’s because we could get a hold of them anytime we had a question, they were great to find solutions to any of our concerns, and offered us many options when we weren’t sure what we wanted. The day of was amazing, everything went perfectly!

The staff at Stanley’s are incredibly helpful in every aspect of your wedding. From the preparation to the decorating to the day of! We just had our wedding there 2 weekends ago and it was simply amazing! They helped with every detail. If I had a worry, they would fix it for me right away. They made our day truly amazingly beautiful!

Stanley’s was my dream come true. The beauty of the farm has been everything I wanted. We couldn’t thank the staff enough for all their services. They really made us feel comfortable and always made sure we had what we needed. They were professional and super pleasant individuals.

We got married at Stanley’s in the Fall. The venue was absolutely beautiful. The staff were very nice and professional. They went above and beyond to make this day perfect. We decided to do our own decor and they were very easy to work with when it came to who set up what. The room looked exactly like our vision. It was raining at the time of our ceremony, they quickly relocated the ceremony to an area that was of our liking, without much delay. The food was delicious. The timing of dinner/speeches etc was perfect! All the guests (200) were served every course within 10 minutes. Erin, the day of coordinator made sure my husband and I were happy and fed the whole night. Kathy and Jenna are very easy to work with during the planning phase as well. All in all, I would recommend this venue to anyone.
