Weekend Trip to Evelyne’s Farm

It’s a beautiful and quite place to be. We had an amazing night right next to the creek and the calming sounds of it. The free firewood and the farm fresh eggs handed with love where another highlight. Thanks for that!

1 night at Rustic Resort at the Farm

I've stayed here twice now. Jennifer has a private, quiet spot in the West Tent. Spots like this are perfect for me in that i carry a tent with me all the time but when driving a 2 day transit, it's nice to have one up already. I haven't used the East Tent but this faces west for the a ice sunset over the field.

Weekend Trip to Sunnyday's Forest

We had a great time at the cabin! Gerald was such a wonderful host, it was a last minute kind of trip and he was so accommodating. All of the animals on the farm were so friendly and patient with my 4 year old son and 2 wild dogs. It was such a delight watching my son and bigger dog interact with the horses and Petunia the pig. My dog was off on his own hanging out with the horses and goats half the trip, I don’t think he’s ever had so much fun. He slept for about 24 hours after we got home lol. Gerald’s care and training of the animals is amazing. My 4 year old was riding a horse all in his own, my girlfriend got to ride an award winning shire, and I enjoyed the company of a kind and gentle pony :) . We highly recommend Gerry and his property and will be returning soon. Don’t forget to add some farm fresh eggs to your trip!

Weekend Trip to Cliff Mine Heights

Enjoyed another stay at Cliff Mine. Easy access to the city, close to shopping and dining. Private, quiet, and safe. Ian and his family are lovely!

Weekend Trip to Runnin Crazy Farm

Mendi's property was amazing, very peaceful. Everyone was very friendly and always asking if there was anything we needed. Very accommodating to my schedule. We definitely be staying again in the future

Weekend Trip to Cliff Mine Heights

Super great parking area and host. Great communication and accurate description of spot.

1 night at Fombell Landing

Very nice property! Full of lots of woods & exploring. Our host was kind & made sure we were set up! Definitely will be back! Beautiful land! & so much exploring for your dog! Neighbors are super friendly as well!

Weekend Trip to Fombell Landing

The site was well maintained and flat. The owner was very hospitable and offered free wood. Also, anyone who drove by stopped and said hello and checked in. Very nice community.

3 nights at Cliff Mine Heights

Ian's place was perfect for our needs. It was close to everything, but felt pretty private considering it was next to the house. They had electricity which was a plus. It was very easy to communicate with Ian. The place was easy to find and set up. Would definitely use them next trip to Pittsburgh.

29 nights at Horseshoe bend

Amy's place was fantastic! I love that it was on a more secluded road, with quiet neighbors, which made it feel more private. Close to a state park and not far from local grocery stores and gas stations. Amy was a great host and I would definitely stay here again! 10/10

Weekend Trip to Cliff Mine Heights

Nicely kept yard/home.. quiet area. Quick response when I arrived. I wasn't at the camper very often, as I was in Pittsburgh mostly, so I did not meet the host

Weekend Trip to Rustic Resort at the Farm

We stayed in the A-Frame for a late fall weekend getaway and it was great. The cozy A Frame was great to sit around the fire and unwind. It had the amenities we needed (hot plate / access to water and a shower / and super close to plenty of activities). Jennifer and her family were very responsive to any questions we had and even made available items from their farms Farm Stand. We are already planning on coming back again next year.

1 night at Horseshoe bend

Great little spot to stop along the way to your destination. It was somewhat difficult to see in the dark, but the host was able to guide us to the site. The only issue we had was with the sewer location - it is located in a kind of awkward place.

2 nights at Runnin Crazy Farm

Great spot on top of the hill. Quiet relaxing and peaceful. Will definitely utilize this site again in the future.

Weekend Trip to Cliff Mine Heights

Would definitely stay here again. Great location, quiet, safe and welcoming. Everything was as described and pictured. The hosts provided a visitor guide with a lot of great info.

Weekend Trip to Rustic Resort at the Farm

Great spot for a quick get away from Pittsburgh. The tent was great and the location was really convenient. Host was very responsive!

Sunnyday's Forest

2 sites · Lodging25 acres · Tarentum, PA

Sunnyday's farm and forest was a Christmas tree farm in the 1950's. I've owned it for the last 30 years and it is now a horse farm with pastures and woods.Rustic area of 25 acres of pastures and forest bordering a hundred of acres of railroad and municipal forest. Great for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking. 1.5 miles from Deer Lakes park which has fishing, hiking, mountain biking and a great playground. The Allegheny river, judged to be one of the cleanest in the country, is just 6 miles away. Harrison Hills park offers great hiking along the river and an occasional river otter. The Rachel Carson Trail and Baker trail are just a few miles away. It is a secluded log cabin in the woods on top of a hill overlooking a pasture. It is a very primitive cabin with a fireplace, brick floor, large porch, fabric interior and no chinking in the logs. We provide a bunk bed and cots and 2 picnic tables.. There is a large grassy area in front of the cabin for tents. There is no vehicle access, no electricity and no water at the cabin, but LOTS of downed wood for fires. There are horses, goats, chickens, ducks and a pig that roam the pastures. The cabin is about 300 yards from the parking area up a fairly steep hill, but the location is worth the walk! If you're stopping with an RV or trailer we have ample parking near the road and have overnight accommodations for horses Great place for a stopover.
