I stayed here back in 2007 had a great time so we decided to come back for Halloween werkenend thisyear 2009. Well we were very disappointed the campground was set up nice by seasonals and some weekenderd for the holiday that wasn't the problem. The problem was the place seemed to be getting run down. The sign by the ladies room in the back was broken off and the see saw was broken on the playground. When I asked about the see saw I was told it had been broken most of the year. The haunted hayride was terrible compared to previous years maybe it's time to change it up a little or put in a bit more effort if your going to charge for it? I also could help but notice but very few people showed up at the dance which shouldve been fun with a costume contest. I also heard the owner complaining most of the night about how he can't wait until the season is over he's ready to retire. I will be sure to tell my friends how muc this place has changed in the last 2 years and that they should choose somewhere else.

We've stayed here twice - our latest being this June. This is a campground with quite a bit going on. There are two pools, the one in the front is for the smaller kids and adults, the one in the rear is for the older, rowdy kids. There are a lot of other activities and things to do - daily hayrides, etc. This is a very family oriented campground. Most sites are seasonal but there is an area in the middle of the campground for the transients. The further down the hill you go, the better the sites seem to be. Our first time here was in 2005 and it was over 100 degrees and the campground DID have power issues when folks had to turn on their A/C units. This did not go over well with me. We decided to give them another try this year and I do not regret it as this time, it went a lot better (It also wasn't very hot! mid-80's). This campground is dog-friendly, we walked our dogs around and there are plenty of places to "potty" them. They've added on-site trash cans, (one for garbage,and one for recycling), which was very nice. There is also a little area up front where the goats are and for a quarter, you can feed them. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I have been camping all my life. I camped all through my childhood and now that I have children o my own. I have been to every every campground in Ct. Plus several other in New England. I was at Salem Farms on other time as a child before The new owners and it was a mess. I decided to try it again in 07 for a weekend and I was glad I did. I have never felt more comfortable at a campground. The most important thing about this campground is it is very family oriented and safe. The seasonal campers are awesome and friendly and everyone looks out for eachother. The campground has two pools, two playgrounds, a rec hall, mini golf, my favorite tennis a large beautiful field petting zoo bingo on Fri,Dj or live band on Sat. and activities for the kids all day long.
The store is stocked well and the owners and their children are hands on people. They are always there to help and make the stay joyful and comfortable.
Anyway, I enjoy many campgrounds in Ct and never pictured myself becoming a seasonal camper. But after a few weekends in 07 at salem farms by Sept I signed a contract for a seasonal site. 08 was the best camping year and I can't wait to return in May.
Trust me, I know that the economy is really bad right now, Camping is a inexpensive way to vacation with your family. Don't waste your money going somewhere else.
