Forest Valley
Nice quiet spot away from the house with a nice view of the woods. Not too far off the beaten path if you need something but still secluded.

My friends and I had a great stay at Forest Valley! The campsite suits under s canopy of trees which should provide extra protection in case of rain. The door is clear and level with all the pre-cut firewood you could use.
Tips:
-There is no fire ring provided, but the ground is mostly dirty, so no harm building your fire on the bare earth. I brought a portable fire pit.
-Bring a tarp to cover the firewood just in case
-There are acorns on the ground so take care to clear them before setting up your tent.
-Familiarize yourself with how to work the cassette toilet BEFORE you need to use it.
-To better forget you're in someone's backyard, turn your tents to face the woods.
Again, we had a blast, and I would absolutely visit again.

This, our 9th Hipcamp, was the best property we stayed at. Arriving during Ida, we found the place oddly without any puddles during and after inches of rain. Host Roger guided us to the spot and then left us to enjoy the wonder of his property as I'm sure he does. Woods, field(lawn) and quiet. It was perfect. Thank you Roger for sharing.

The site is lovely, a clearing in the woods at the edge of a large hill. The hot tub was fun, best for two people. But what a bonfire!! Worth a stay just for that! The only negative (and it's small) is that the owner's house is at the top of the hill, visible from the site. However, no rooms from the house look out over the hill so it is private.

We had a great stay at Finksburg Forest, we had a group of 10 and there was plenty of space for all of us, the site was easy to access and the addition of the hot tub and movie screen made a unique experience! It was great to relax outdoors and enjoy some extra amenities!

We had a great stay for Labor day weekend - Roger and his family were attentive hosts, yet respected our space and privacy. Their property is large and beautifully maintained, and the campsites are large, spaced out well, and have thoughtful touches to make the stay even more enjoyable. They even had a large bonfire the last night of our stay for all campers to enjoy safely, which was a really nice touch.

Roger was great. He greeted me and let me know all the great features of the property. I was invited to a twilight bonfire, which was a lot of fun. The site was well-maintained and has a great view of the stars.

Movie Night!
We had an incredible time staying at Finksburg Forest! Roger was welcoming, flexible, and available for any accommodations you may need. The hot tub and movie screen made for an experience you won’t want to miss! The site was private, clean, and very well kept. This is an amazing spot and we will definitely be back!

I enjoyed my stay, quiet, private and comfortable. Roger was quick to respond and even stopped by to make sure I was happy with accommodations.

I really loved this site. I was a little confused with how to get to it upon arrival, but the host came out and helped me get sorted out quickly. The site is enormous. I took advantage of a couple of the add-ons and had a really nice stay. You can tell the area is regularly cleared of growth. There was plenty of room to spread out and the trees provide some privacy/separation between you and the house. I didn't opt for the big bonfire - it felt wasteful since it was just me. Hope to go back and take advantage of that with a group some time.

Start your own small fire in the field, it is rewarding!

Add the movie screen, remember not to place your tent between the hot tub and screen!

Bring friends and add a hot tub! The movie works great at night, bring a device to hookup to the projector.
