Also, please heed no trespassing signs and leave the area clean and undisturbed. Make sure you park on the sides of the road, without blocking traffic, and leave place once pictures are taken out of respect for others who might be taking photos. The farm and the surrounding area are private, but you can still take some nice pictures from outside. It is located off Cloudland Road and has become a mecca for photographers and site seers from around the world. It’s located close to the village of Woodstock which makes it easy to reach by car, yet still very secluded. ![]() And it’s beautiful.” The Sleepy Hollow Farm in South Pomfret, Vermont is one of the most photogenic farms in the state of Vermont. ![]() I truly believe if it had been another time in history it would be its own country. “I like that not much changes there” in Vermont, Perry said. “When you’re learning any kind of art you pick things up from anybody who’s doing it, whether they’re really good at it or learning like you are. “Vermont definitely turned me on to a lot of things,” Perry told the Burlington Free Press in a phone conversation from his home in Massachusetts. Once owned by Aerosmith guitarist Joe Perry, (who purchased it in 2005, later selling it in 2015), Joe loved the nature Vermont is so well known for. The former farm, which would come to be well known as Sleepy Hollow, transferred to a few different owners during those next decades. This working farm offers visitors a chance to see life on a real Vermont farm. One of the many attractions in this picturesque town is Sleepy Hollow Farm. Woodstock, Vermont is a place of natural beauty and rural charm. In the 1950’s, the family decided to quit farming after years of hard work at the Sleepy Hollow Farm They were connected by pastures, where family members from both farms would play and work together. There were few, if any boundaries between these two properties. I can't say I'd recommend it based on our experience, which is a shame because the people are nice, they have put a lot of effort into it, and the concept has potential.Over the next century and a half, both Doten families continued to use both farms. Also, it is a serious drive out there from the city of Atlanta or even the inner suburbs, but you can judge that for yourself on maps. The staff were helpful with first aid and apologetic, but knowing about the problem, they should have checked the area first and probably offered at least the person who got stung a refund. The rest of the group managed to make it around the area safely once we figured out where to avoid, but it certainly ruined the day for her. 3) There was an active wasp nest inside the course and someone in our group got stung! This was apparently a problem they knew about and had sprayed for the previous day, but it was completely active when we were there and she stumbled across it by accident and without any advance warning of the possibility. That's too many, certainly for the first, confined area you have to work in. Also, due to some kind of booking glitch, we ended up with 11 people when the max is supposed to be 10. Kind of frustrating to hold up everyone else to wait on them. ![]() We had a 2:30 reservation but didn't actually start until 2:50 because we were waiting on 2 other people to arrive who weren't part of our group. 2) There were some logistical problems the day we were there. Pretty much everyone uses hints in these things, but a well designed one shouldn't make them an absolute necessity to understand what you are trying to accomplish. There are things we missed and could not possibly have known about until after we were hinted to go back for them by the guide. Now, for the bad: 1) The escape puzzles themselves are not very intuitive and don't really flow through the experience. There's a feeling of having to navigate a maze in addition to solving puzzles that you won't get anywhere else. They have put a lot of work into the set-up (at least for the one we did, The Dig) and being outdoors allows them much more space than the typical escape room. First, the good: an outdoor escape room is a genuinely innovative twist on a concept that could easily become stale with all of the new rooms opening up in Atlanta.
