Peace & Quiet by the River!

My farm is just beautiful.  I have owned it for 46 years and am proud as can be of its beauty and serenity. Welcome to our perfect outdoor haven, a beautiful 150 acre farm, providing an extraordinary escape from the hustle and bustle of our modern world.  Two of our exclusive campsites are located on the banks of the Little Schuylkill River, with the world-renowned Hawk Mountain Sanctuary boarding on the other side of the river.  The third site, has an open view of Hawk Mountain and the farm, to say nothing of the full sky view.. Our private, exclusive campsites, easily encompassing about 5 acres at each site and surrounded by the 150 acre farm, are designed to take advantage of the natural surroundings. Here you will find yourself off grid and alone with nature.  Imagine yourself pitching your tent along the river or on the hill top, viewing countless birds of prey and all types of wildlife with no other folks around, except for your people.

The location could not be better or more private. Our family for years have camped and played at these site, enjoying the river and night sounds. We are a working Christmas Tree farm as well. Truly private camping, not a commercial camp ground. Very few camping sites exist where you can just have your own space, but you may have it here. My family are stewards to this wonderful farm, and are thrilled to share it with you.  We want you to chill and to find tranquility, to respect our sites and make memories that are treasured.

Details:

We will consider 1 night stays for weekdays, please contact for availability and pricing. 

We will also consider more than 8 campers. Please inquire!

Because we are a tree farm, we cannot allow you to bring wood from other locations on to the farm.  Wood is for sale here and we request a pre order so we can have it ready at your site.  You may purchase through Hipcamp or directly from us.  

All sites have a picnic table, a Hawk Shadow Out House, water to wash things, a preparation table and a good bundle of kindling to start off your camping experience.  There Is a shovel, cooking grates, log benches and a neat campfire ring. Potable water is available at the farm and you may refill when needed.

Deer Ridge Lodge

Opening up this property to Glampers in 2017 and other Vacationers has been an exciting experience for me in the last few years. This 30 acre property was virgin land back when my folks purchased it in the early 1970's. My father was a avid fly Fisherman, so this being with in 2 miles of Roaring River State Park was where he wanted to spend most of his time in nature catching Trout Fish, and my mom wanted to be in the woods where she could just sit back and be one with nature.  We lived in the next state over so he wanted this to be our vacation home away from home. . . so the story began. . . and goes .  . .  the road onto the property was built and the first home and well, so we had a place to come for family fun and vacations.

4 acres in rural suburbia

We are nestled on 4 acres with gentle borders to suburbs with neighboring homes. We are campers and consider this spot to be very fair after staying at some overpriced places. Our home is from 1880 and was the general store and post office for Hynemansville PA. It will need work long after we are gone. George Washington's troops slept across the street.Learn more about this land:Pitch your tent on almost 2 acres and have more privacy than in a crowded campground.  We are a mix of farms and new construction. 2 min to highway. Close to hiking,  biking, Appalacian Trail, lakes, streams, ponds. Soccer and baseball fields nearby.
