Pocono Woodland Lakes, PA · 8 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
All lodging sites have heating for your comfort and are available year round! The River's Edge campsites sit on the shoreline of the Delaware River at the western edge of New York State overlooking the mountains of Pennsylvania. Our canvas tents and open air platforms perch between the river and the former Delaware & Hudson Canal which was once was used to transport raw goods by barge to New York City via the 'port' of Port Jervis. The remnants of the canal walls are throughout the property including a 300 person theater which we created to both preserve and feature this industrial history. It also makes a great place for an event or a movie night.
Today, the original canal towpath, along which barges would be pulled and floated downstream, is a trail that links all of the campsites over 5 acres and at the furthest end an eel fishing camp that is in operation from June to October.
In the early 1900s, the train replaced the canal as the primary method of moving goods into New York and if you are lucky — you will hear the train rumble by along the river on the Pennsylvania side. There is something spectacular in the absolute still and grandness of the river, the mountains and the ongoing industrial history of the valley. It is a reminder of the way things used to be.
The farmhouse and cabins are located opposite the campsites on other side of route 97. Next to them are 50 acres of wild forest to hike and explore. These accommodations are great for guests who want more amenities but still with easy access to river. Pair campsites and cabins so that all your guests have their best experience.
Contact us to coordinate for larger group bookings. Please note that a significant portion of county tax/fees and cancellation or change fees may be avoided by booking the base amount of people (4) and at a much later date adding extra guests. Guests NOT occupying canvas tent (lodging) and bringing their own tents should not be paying an occupancy tax but there is no provision for this in the app. We do not want our guests paying taxes -- that benefit no one but useless bureaucracy! Extra guests may be added the week before booking. Just let us know your plans through the app!

This wooded area is 5 miles away from the Ohiopyle State Park whitewater launch area and GAP bike trail. We are less than 9 miles from Frank Lloyd Wright's Classic Fallingwater and about 8 miles from Kentuck Knob one of the last resident homes he designed (both are open for tours). Fort Necessity National Battlefield is 5 miles away. There are numerous native trout streams in the area. Youghiogheny Reservoir is 7 miles away for fishing, boat rentals, and water-sports.
The Fern House is the primary camp cabin on the property. Although if someone would want to park a "self contained" camper or small RV on the property we would permit the unit to occupy the area in front of the driveway just pass the entrance gate. It is not within the ferns and is next to the road. There is an electrical outlet available at this small RV or van camper site.
We are "nice pet" friendly. Dogs should not be left in the cabin alone. We have a mountain spring (when the spring is running) up the trail road (450 feet away). The ferns will normally be in full glory by the end of May to mid September and are amazing, covering the forest floor. Deer, bear, wild turkey, fox, chipmunks, squirrels and many woodland birds abound the property especially owls. A picnic table, fire ring and firewood is available on the property. Free WiFi on the property as long as the plant life is not too thick! There is a mile hiking loop right on the property and many challenging trails in the area, including the starting point for the Laurel Highlands Hiking Trail. No smoking is permitted in the cabin.

Newfoundland, PA · 2 sites
Journey's End Farm is a small family farm offering a diverse selection of ecologically grown vegetables, maple syrup, and free-range eggs. Everything that we sell is grown or produced on-site with the intention of nurturing the soil and ecology of the land. From 1939-2020 our family ran a summer sleep-away camp for children on the farm, with an emphasis on caring for each other and the land. Located in a small valley at 1400 feet of elevation, our fields and woods are home to a broad diversity of native plants and animals. Our family has been caring for this land since 1926, but before European colonization it was home to the Lenape people from whom it was forcibly taken. Acknowledging this fact and working to expand awareness of Indigenous cultures and their rights is important to us.
While at the farm, besides the amenities listed in each listing, you are welcome to hike or walk around and explore our farm which has many acres of woodland, creeks, springs, a pond, and open fields. A hot day is a great time for a walk along - or in - the creek. A rainy day brings out the Red Efts - beautiful orange newts that are all over the woods when you know where to look. We're always glad to point you in the right direction for a nice walk or a longer hike. You may be able to tag along collecting eggs from the hens or feeding some of the other animals we may have.

We had an incredible autumn getaway at The Nest! The cabin is truly secluded, surrounded by beautiful scenery in every direction. It’s warm, cozy, clean, and stocked with everything you could possibly need and more. We especially loved the peaceful setting and the convenient proximity to hiking trails in the National Forest.

The cabin was perfect for what I needed. A few quiet nights. At the price point, you can't beat it. Probably one of the nicer "rustic" cabins I've seen at any campground. I didn't get to try them, I'm pretty sure they have atv/dirt bike trails on the property which is cool. Bathrooms were like 15 steps from the front door, which was nice.

Thank you John and Sandy! We had such a great stay. It was the perfect place to disconnect, slow down, and spend quality time with my kids. The property is beautiful and peaceful, with the creek, trees, open space, and so much to explore.
The kids absolutely loved being outside, exploring and seeing all the wildlife. Sitting around the fire at night and enjoying the peaceful surroundings was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. We even got to enjoy watching a hummingbird right outside the cabin!
The cabin had everything we needed and felt comfortable while still giving us that true getaway-in-the-woods experience.
We would definitely come back. It was exactly the kind of weekend we needed, and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to make some memories with my kids. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful, quick weekend getaway to Camp Skipping Rock! We had 2 adults and 5 teenagers with us and everyone had a comfortable place to sleep. If you are looking for a “fancy” place to stay, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for a quiet, peaceful, private, cosy camp, this is the place for you. We loved the big yard and the proximity to the creek was great. The boys spent a ton of time swimming and fishing, while the girls painted rocks, swam and put puzzles together. Our dogs loved the freedom this private camp provided and my husband and I enjoyed the peace and quiet. Everyone in our group agreed that we should come back for a longer stay. Thank you for sharing your place with us, Katharine!

I loved spending a night in the chapel. I felt totally safe and it was lovely to see the horses across the river. Definitely bring more candles than you think you need and maybe some wet wipes for the tables. There are tons of chairs and eating space inside. Arriving with plenty of daylight was definitely the move as it gets dark in the chapel quite quickly. I’d also bring a knife for cutting the wax out of the candlesticks!
