Great history here. Nice quiet cabins to relax
Malabar Farm State Park is the former home of Louis Bromfield. For years it served as a place for Bromfield to write, entertain the Hollywood elite of the time, and demonstrate his ideas about farming. Today visitors can tour the house and grounds, catching a glimpse of what life was like for Bromfield and his friends. Throughout the year Malabar Farm holds festivals, such as Heritage Days, that bring to life what like was like in the early 20th century.
This is always a lovely place to visit! We go each year for the Heritage festival. The ham from their smoker is delicious! Lots of walking trails, nice visitor center. The maple syrup festival is also a lot of fun!
I go here a couple times a year. Always good, but a little uncomfortable when busy. The iced tea is legendary.
A beautiful site to visit with a lovely visitor center that is informative and has gifts. Great place for a hike as well.
An incredibly gorgeous state park, there isn't much more to it. The butternut trail features a fun cave trek less than 5 minutes. The Mt Jeez overlook is about 5 minutes away which is a gorgeous place to watch a sunrise, sunset, or just an enjoy a nice vista.
My husband and I stayed overnight at the Malabar Hostel here. Everything here was absolutely beautiful! The peace, relaxation, and connection to Nature was much needed. The Malabar Restaurant was hands down the best food we have had in a very long time, with very reasonable prices! We will definitely be back again and again!
The guide was a wealth of knowledge and engaged children and adults. Great day trip.
Nice place for a quiet hike with family and friends. Not really a place for handicapped people.
Since we were in the area, we toured the Visitor Center and drove up to Mount Jeez. Definitely worth it. The farm looked interesting, but I was unable to walk around it due to a knee injury. I'll be back in the fall.
Great place for the whole family! Wonderful history lesson! Wonderful play area for the children, nice place for a picnic, and also hiking trails. We enjoyed our visit
Even in the middle of Winter, Malabar was an interesting day trip. Their info center was open and offered many exhibits dealing with the history and practices of the farm. While the farm itself was closed up, we were able to walk around the grounds and appreciate the beautiful scenery.
