The property is easy to get to, yet it is remote enough to be wonderfully quiet and private. The over-all area is rich with farmlands and the dedicated people who provide us with our foods. There are not many areas of our USA that have the qualities of this part of Pennsylvania.

The spot was great and a perfect location for us to camp with easy access to Penn State. Would definitely recommend! Mike met us when we arrived with a nice welcome package and some great nearby recommendations for additional sights in the area.

This was our first time booking on Hipcamp and I’m so happy we found Michael’s place. It was peaceful, quiet, private and relaxing. The location was perfect for us, being a short drive to State College. The port-a potty was much appreciated and being able to take a hot shower was a pleasant surprise. Michael personally met us upon arrival to help guide us where to park our truck and pull behind trailer, and to show us how things worked. The hospitality made us feel very welcome and right at home.

Great little spot! The host was very accommodating. She greeted us when we arrived and made us a special welcome packet. There was a hot shower for us and an outhouse which is a luxury while camping haha. All and all, my boyfriend and I really enjoyed our stay and will be booking here again in the future!

Michael's camping spot was outstanding. He really went out of his way to help me out, was quick to respond and even gave me a personalized folder full of information of what to do in the area. The surrounding hills and countryside were outstanding. Nice open spot to camp on with my trailer. Would highly recommend seeking out Michael's camping spot if you're in that area of State College, Pennsylvania.

What a treat it was to camp on Mike and Heather’s hollow for a few nights. The quiet, the stars, the scenery… this place has it all. The Sunrise spot that we occupied had a real nice “nook” feel to it, a cozy little space with a nice view of the rolling fields nearby. The two other spots are similarly secluded on the expansive camping property. The location was great too, as it was off-the-beaten path but still just 20 minutes to some town amenities, restaurants, and State College. We had a great experience and can’t wait to get back!

Great secluded spots. Nice touch with available outside hot water shower . Host was more than welcoming. Thinking the sites would be really nice in the Fall. Huge night skies with zero light pollution. Definitely would go back! (Pro tip; Bring some leveling blocks..)

This was one of my best guest experiences I’ve ever had. Michael was very kind and attentive, the spot was well kept and he was there to guide us into the spot when we arrived late. The showers were hot and had no trouble using them. Highly recommend for travelers looking for a pit stop.

5/5 — Absolutely Amazing Stay!
This site was everything I waslooking for — peaceful, scenic, and super well-maintained. The host was friendly and responsive, and we really appreciated that the first batch of firewood was included — such a thoughtful touch that made settling in easy. Whether you’re here to relax, explore, or just unplug, this spot has it all. Can’t wait to come back!

I loved this camping spot! It was cozy, clean, private and peaceful!! There was a small crick behind the campsite. There were bathrooms! I got to see deer in the woods! The hosts were very welcoming. 10/10. Will most definitely be back.

We had a wonderful stay at this serene Hipcamp. Our host, Michael, was truly exceptional—he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, even providing a thoughtful goodie bag and an informative pamphlet about the area. The property itself was exactly what you imagine when thinking of off-grid camping: peaceful, surrounded by nature, and full of charm. We spotted deer and bunnies during our stay, which added to the magic. We're already looking forward to coming back and spending even more time here

I visited Robert's land with my dog over the 4th of July weekend. The site is easy to find and relatively accessible, on level land with gravel. The outhouse is clean and well taken care of. Robert provided free firewood which was much appreciated.
The area is beautiful with lots to do nearby. We took a walk down to the brook that runs through the property -- you will want hiking shoes or boots for that.
We also went to Buttermilk Falls about 20 minutes away, which is a waterfall and a few trails on the property that used to belong to Fred Rogers' grandfather. You can walk right behind the falls and then move upstream to wade. Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater is also nearby.
If you are interested in checking out the Ghost Town Trail, I recommend bringing a bike so you can cover more ground. The property is just about half a mile away from one of the trail entrances.
The only drawback was the fireworks from neighbors late into the evening, but you will have that in the city as well. If that would both you then don't pick the 4th of July! It didn't bother me so much as it bothered my dog, which bothered me.

Steve was super welcoming and helpful. He checked in on me once I arrived and let me know how to contact him at anytime if I needed anything. The directions he provided to get to the site were easy to follow. The site was quiet and peaceful. It made for a good place to camp overnight and just enjoy nature.
