There is some cell service, but it is limited. Can you hear me now? Be sure to save site information on your phone before you leave, in case you lose cell-service. This is not Alaska, but it is not a KOA campground, either. We recommend you print of bring a paper map. Your GPS will not bring you to the exact driveway location. You need to be personally observant.
This is the top of a mountain ridge. The access lane is steep, rocky, and has water erosion ditches you must drive over. Do not attempt this if you have a low profile car or a new/fragile camper. 4WD/AWD is highly recommended. Low profile and fancy cars are not recommended. This camping site is for those who want to live ruggedly like Lewis Clark. To see the water ditches you must drive over, go to YouTube and search "Wilbur's Shed - Blairs Mills", and it is the account of a cat with a white face.
This location is in a mix of farmland and mountain Appalachia. You will see common species such as chipmunks, squirrels turkey and deer. Many bird species. There are also porcupines, skunks, and black snakes around. You may also see black bear - it is rare, but possible. You are visiting wildlife species in their natural habitat. Please be self-aware of your own level comfort with wildlife. Once again, this is not an RVs park where you will socialize with a hundred other campers. This is primitive and isolated. This is an ideal camping spot if you want to escape from people.
Nearby is the Tuscarora Creek which is excellent for trout fishing. The Tuscarora has a small but lovely window for kayaking from mid-March through the end of May. Please contact the host if you would like help to plan some paddle logistics.
Rental through Hipcamp does not include hunting or the use of firearms, nor the use of dirt bikes and ATVs.

A quaint working farm located in the heart of Adams County, PA. Located just minutes from Gettysburg Battlefield, Biglerville Apple Country, Codorus State Park, Pinchot State Park, and Pine Grove Furnace State Park. Also, not far from the Appalachian Trail, and points in Maryland. The small town of Hampton, PA is only a few miles away. There you will find a pizza/sandwich restaurant and a Donut/Ice Cream shop. The adjoining properties are also working farms, and you will be entranced by the surrounding peace and beauty. Almost every direction has a beautiful skyline. You can walked the mowed paths on the farm, fish in the pond, sit around the camp fire and listen to the quiet and the birds signing. If you like to bike or go for long walks the county roads don’t have a much traffic to contend with and are inviting for walks and biking. We offered carriage rides around the farm paths using our dartmoor ponies.
We can provide you with large fire 🔥 wood bundles, farm fresh eggs, fresh homemade donuts and bagels to your campsite if you order!

Craig was a fabulous host! His little slice of paradise is so relaxing and there’s plenty to explore in the area. We had a great time exploring trails and canoeing with Craig’s help and expertise. He even had a fire going for us upon our return. It was really a treat!

Just got back from an amazing stay at this campsite. The views were absolutely stunning, and the amenities made everything super comfortable. The surrounding area had everything we needed close by, which made the trip even easier. On top of that, the host was fantastic—friendly, helpful, and made us feel right at home. Definitely a spot I’d come back to!

The camping spot was lovely under a big trees spread out and great for birding. The sites are pretty close together, if you have neighbors you will see them. Ours were great and respectful. Bill the host was super kind and helpful. He offered us to walk in the property, which had field, meadow, forest and a pond. Super quiet out there, along side a road with very minimal cars on it. We paid for wood and there was SO much for the campfire. Port a pot clean.
We had a great night and fire, but a rainy next day- so we went to New Oxford town and super enjoyed wandering so many unique antique shops and the coffee shop Deja Brew had SO many gluten free pastries/ desserts. We had a great experience at Ponderosa and also enjoyed the quaint town like 10 min away as we got out of the rain.

Campsite was an awesome experience for our trip. I went with three of my bros, it ended up being a perfect spot for a weekend. campsite was clean and well-kept when we arrived. plenty of space for all three of our trucks. We brought three different tents, - no shortage of good spots. We spent a lot of time just hanging around the site, setting up some great fires, cooking steaks, played cornhole. really appreciated the detailed directions provided beforehand
