Weekend Trip to Grouseland Hospitality

Mason reached out to my wife and I days before our camping trip to inform us about camping at Grouseland. The day of, he messaged us for our ETA and then met us at the front entrance to guide us to our beautiful campsite. We stayed at the Aspen RV site. The hospitality, cleanliness and care that goes into Grouseland is impeccable. 12/10.

Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate, but still had a great time. Nice to get away from the neighbors and relax with a great view out the window. Caught up on some reading and got some practice cooking on the new grill.

Weekend Trip to Grouseland Hospitality

We very much enjoyed our stay at Grouseland. Mason was a great host, he showed us our site and went over where everything was on a map. He and his family have amazing campsites with beautiful scenic overlooks. Their amenities all worked out perfectly - including your own private port a potty at each site (there’s also a camp house bathroom with shower - about a 5 min walk), picnic table, bench, charcoal grill, trash can, and string lights when it gets dark. It’s also a magical sight to see the mass amount of stars at night. We had a wonderful time and we will be back again. Thank you Mason and family for sharing your space.

This was a fantastic place for us to break up our trip to the northeast. It is worth the drive 100%, the views are fantastic and it is very private. Yvonne was easy to communicate with and super responsive. We are already looking at the calendar for the next trip out.

Mason is a great host! We left a day early due to weather but the time spent was wonderful. Most beautiful area and camp site. Had the place to ourselves but sites are spaced apart nicely. Plenty of privacy. Will be back again.

This was a great site. Would definitely recommend it and go out of our way to come here again. The directions were easy to follow, it was fun to paddle around in the lake and we caught a fish. The dogs loved it as well.

Weekend Trip to Slice of Solitude

The perfect spot to entertain a 3 & 5 year old! We had access to a shed filled with games, toys, and kiddie pools. The kids loved the playground equipment and the swings. We took our dogs on several walks along a wide mowed trail around the property. Bathrooms were spotless. Always thankful for property owners who allow us to stay and enjoy their property!

It is a very lovely and picturesque camping spot. I would definitely go there again. You are surrounded by farm country in front and the mountain behind you. Gorgeous!!! I will say that you should be prepared for the Spotted Lantern Flies. That is not Yvonne’s fault, it’s just the current insect nuisance. They don’t bother humans though. I camped alone but I felt completely safe there. So peaceful. Just what I needed. Thank you Yvonne!!!

This is our second time camping here. We decided to go with the Red Maple site this time for some extra room. Mason, as always, keeps the property looking great. He's very helpful if you need anything, but isn't intrusive so you get a nice, private experience. Even with people in all of the sites around us, it was still nice and private. He's done a great job of setting the sites up to allow for privacy. The views are amazing. We'll be going here for years.

Beautiful campsite in a rural setting! The welcome box, fire pit, and picnic table at the camp site were wonderful. The bathroom/shower was an amazing surprise! Even though we were just passing through we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will likely stay again when we pass through the area!
