About
The Farm
The
Farm at Worthley Pond is a remodeled 1850 farm, located on 5 acres,
nestled in a beautiful mountain valley surrounded by rolling hills.
Located on a sparkling clear lake with a private beach only
125 yards from the Farm that is perfect for all season recreation.
Only 40 miles from the Appalachian Trail and the large peaks of the
White Mountains, these foot hills offer both beauty and day hiking.
It is perfect for vacations, wedding receptions and family reunions.
It is also an ideal setting for small group meetings
such as staff retreats, board strategic planning, faculty curriculum
planning, grant writing and sales group planning. Located just three hours
north of Boston's Logan Airport near Bethel, Maine, the year-round
facility offers a secluded mountain setting. The Farm can accommodate wedding parties as large
as 175 in-doors and 300 out-doors.
Winter offers bountiful recreational opportunities for guests staying at
The Farm at Worthley Pond. Three world class ski areas are within 1.5 hour drive,
including Sunday River in Bethel, Maine only 45 minutes away. Smaller ski areas of
Black Mountain and Mt. Abram are less than 30 minutes away. Cross country ski and
snowmobile enthusiasts can enjoy the many trails, which honeycomb the foothills,
outside the Farm's front door. A special treat for cross country skiers is Black Mountain,
located just 20 minutes away, where the U.S. Cross Country Ski Team trains.
