A unique feature is the 8.1-acre section (see plot plans) known as “Woodrock” which has a separate road access from Schaeffer Rd and is excluded from the conservation easement-opening the door for potential subdivision or future development.

It has hosted summer camps, conferences, transitional housing, and wellness-focused programming. The landscape is truly breathtaking with rolling hills, open meadows, a small pond, and wooded areas, all accessible via a long private drive.

Fire pits and rustic rock circles, perfect for group gatherings, evening storytelling, or quiet moments of reflection under the stars.
