The space
Alyson’s Orchard is an exceptional 350 acre working farm, perched upon high ground, with panoramic views of the Connecticut River Valley. A premier wedding and event destination, the heart of the farm is the orchard. We have around 13,000 apple trees, as well as numerous other fruits. Through the growing season, we also grow vegetables in the rich agricultural soils that grace our part of the Granite State, left here by the glaciers that once carved out the shape of this land.

We have three unique lodging options on site, which can accommodate small or large groups. We are proud to now be able to offer these accommodations on Airbnb for the first time! We are also in the process of constructing seven amazing “glamping sites” that will be available by early summer.

In whichever season you visit us at Alyson’s, you will have the opportunity to see the workings of a classic New England farm.

Throughout all four seasons, the farm is bustling with activity. In the winter we are pruning, maintaining infrastructure, creating delicious food in our commercial kitchen, and planning for the busy season ahead.

As the days get longer, cherries, blueberries, and raspberries begin to bear their fruit, and the farm staff are busy tending the crops and welcoming “you pick” guests. The farm store opens for the season, and our on site bar and pub are open a couple nights a week. The early season crops are followed by plums, peaches, pears, and apples. We are busy! People drive from all over New England to enjoy Alyson’s orchard, and the unique variety of heirloom apples that we represent here, among other things. With a playground, a petting zoo, delicious pies and donuts, there are activities to appeal to people of all ages. We also have fantastic swimming ponds on site for the warmer months, that offer ice skating in the winter.


In the winter months, opportunities abound for recreation. Our property has tons of room for cross country skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding. The orchard is less than an hour’s drive from Okemo, Sunapee, Killington, Stratton, and other ski mountains for downhill skiing and snowboarding.

Bird watchers will appreciate the abundance of activity above a large open orchard, the valley which surrounds it, and the mighty Connecticut river below. If you enjoy paddling, the river connects you to the Northern Forest Canoe Trail, a 740 mile journey through our northeast waterways. Canoes, kayaks, and SUP rentals are available from an outfitter north of our location on the river, as well as shuttle service.

Golfers will enjoy Hooper Golf Course just around the corner from us. A spectacular place, it’s consistently been rated as one of the top 9 hole courses in the world!


Come join us at Alyson’s, and join the tens of thousands of others who have made lifelong memories here. It’s truly a special place, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
