Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Clear Creek Cook Forest Campsite

Gorgeous piece of land far removed from trailer park camping :) Pups had a blast

Weekend Trip to Stoney Run Primitive Tent Camping

Great secluded spot to camp for a weekend getaway. The hosts are awesome as well! Couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend the weekend. Just beware it can get pretty wet down there during heavy rain, possible flooding.

Weekend Trip to Bill S. and Nancy's property

Beautiful and serene property that is perfect for large and small groups. We had a quick stay and would have loved to been able to enjoy the surroundings more than we did. Thank you Bill!

2 nights at Bill S. and Nancy's property

Bill met us in the driveway and we chatted a bit. He showed us where our site was and headed off in front of us to deliver a fire ring and pre-purchased wood. He also allowed us to fill our tank with his hose which was very helpful! No problem pulling in to spot. Plenty of room for camper and truck. Bill made sure we settled in then went off to see to the site for another trailer which was due to arrive shortly. Once they arrived and were also properly welcomed and settled in, Bill came back to chat while we were cooking dinner. My other half drove tractor trailers for quite a while and Bill is a retired driver so they had stories to share! We asked Bill about biking in the area and if there were any local breweries. He gave us directions to sandy creek bike trail and big rail brewing. Both were excellent! Biking on rail trail had numerous bridges to cross with great views and a 1000 ft railroad tunnel to ride thru. Brewery had live music just setting up and was on a great property. Adirondack chairs, picnic tables, barstools, many choices to relax. Indoor bar as well as food trucks and a beer truck outside too! Loved the IPA!

3 nights at Clear Creek Cook Forest Campsite

2nd time here. Please note the road to the site IS TERRIBLE. Pulling trailer with a car? Good chance you won’t make it. Go slow! This is a great spot if you want to get away from people but still have electric and water. Very secluded. Site offers 50 amp service so bring an adapter if you have 30 amp. It’s in a bit of a valley so expect standing water and mud during rainy spells. Dump station down the road for $15. Host is super nice and easily accessible.

4 nights at Clear Creek Cook Forest Campsite

EVERYTHING about Fern Gully is PERFECT... except maybe a few short portions of the road getting in! But don't forget, it could always be worse! We truly managed just fine by going nice and slow! :) Josh was fabulous to deal with from beginning to end! Very responsive and kind! The instructions and the locked gate getting in - easy peasy! The gravel parking area for our small camper was level and easy to navigate! The hook-ups worked perfectly! The fire pit and surrounding picnic tables, etc. couldn't have been better! But the woods! OMG the WOODS! They were MAGICAL! It was like being surrounded by an enchanted forest full of happiness! No matter which way you looked, you were in awe of the natural beauty! It was honestly a 360 degree view of the most gorgeous setting you could ever ask for! We had rain almost the entire time we were there, but it didn't even phase us due to the stunning property we were on! I felt so lucky to be able to be there! I have to say it was the BEST place we have camped since upgrading from a tent to a camper many many years ago! It felt like tent camping, we were alone in the forest and got to experience all the sounds and feels (not a single noise from a vehicle the entire time!!), but we had all the amenities of our camper! Again, PERFECT!! We can't wait to go back to Fern Gully! Thank you for sharing your picturesque land with us to enjoy, Josh!! We are Forever Grateful!

1 night at Hog Wild Farm

Martin was very kind and the farm is so nice! I was able to set up my tent in the forest along the property, saw some deer, had a good night's sleep. Quiet and private. Thanks!

Weekend Trip to Presidential Primitive Getaway

Beautiful quiet getaway!! There was the occasional car or plane but the bugs and birds tuned it out.

4 nights at Clear Creek Cook Forest Campsite

This was our second time at Fern Gully. Private and stunning. The forest looks like it goes on forever. If you want a quiet paradise with the only sounds being the wind and birds(plus the occasional turkey), this is the campsite for you.

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

We loved the River Ridge site for some private time away from the city. The sun rises on this site so be prepared for early mornings. It was amazing to wake up completely enveloped in cloud and then feel it get burned off with the sun. This site has the perfect balance of sun to dry off the tent in the early morning and then complete tree cover to shield from the midday heat. We saw a hawk, a falcon, a bald eagle and heard an owl at night… great spot for raptor enthusiasts. Some things to be mindful about: The very clean and well maintained compost toilets are quite far down the hill so you may want to be prepared with your own or a trowel (please know proper cathole guidelines!). Also, this site is 4 wheel drive accessible only, but note that it may become impassable with heavier rains so be prepared to park your vehicle below and hike uphill with gear. Chris is an excellent host and was quick to answer any questions. We also feel it’s worth noting that every site on Chris’s property is awesome and each have their own perks depending on your style and needs. We were rejuvenated by this land and hope to visit River Hills Above the Allegheny again!

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

This was my first time using Hipcamp and Chris was quick to answer my booking question I had and to tell us about what there is to do around the area. The camping spot was easy enough to find, absolutely beautiful, and well kept. Exploring around the area was really fun, definitely check out the waterfall and cave! We will definitely be back.

Weekend Trip to Rustic Acres - Elevated RV Camping

This is the cleanest campground we’ve been to since we bought our camper. The playground is adorable, the Hub is beautiful, and the bathrooms clean, warm, and had showers. It was quiet and we felt very comfortable.

Weekend Trip to Muddy Myst

We loved camping at Muddy Myst! The family who owns the property are very kind; the love they have for their beautiful land shines bright! The area was quiet, serene, & extremely well maintained. The bathroom & common area were pristine. There were a few other campers visiting during our stay, but the sites are plenty far apart to provide privacy. We stayed in the tree house cabin; it was a pretty chilly weekend but we were very warm & cozy in our little spot. The bed was comfortable & they provided a small heater for us to use. We always bring our pup along when we camp & it can be hit or miss, however we had such a pleasant experience camping with her at Muddy Myst! The property is very dog friendly & she loved having to opportunity to be off leash. We can’t wait to come back!

Weekend Trip to Muddy Myst

I’ve stayed at Muddy Myst a few times, but this was my first staying at the creek site. Much to my surprise, I enjoyed it even more than the pond site! It affords a little more privacy, and the sound of the running water is so peaceful to sleep next time. I’ve stayed at a lot of great campsites, but we always end up back here. It’s a favorite of ours! The hosts are always so accommodating, kind, and responsive, and they are definitely part of the reason Muddy Myst is such a nice place to spend your days!

Weekend Trip to Stoney Run Primitive Tent Camping

Went above and beyond as a host. Great private little camping area in the mountains of pa. Highly recommend.

Weekend Trip to Starr Farm

Awesome place to get away. Hosts were extremely accommodating. Will def be back in the summer to explore more of the land!

1 night at The Tiny Home

We absolutely loved this private little woodland getaway. We loved walking the trails and identifying all the different plants. Making dinner and s’mores over the fire pit was awesome, and we also laid out a blanket in the field to watch the stars come out and the bats fly around. It was super cool to hear them making noise. Being able to retreat back into the little home and have the comforts of air conditioning and a cozy bed was amazing. Definitely coming back!

The cozy tree house cabin is a fantastic stay to get away and let the mind free. From the trees to the frogs everything was perfect. This a hidden gem in Pennsylvania!! If you're in the pittsburgh area I would definitely recommend staying here. I'm looking forward to my(our) next visit in the near future.

This Treehouse Cabin was an absolutely wonderful couple’s getaway. The property is so well-maintained and peaceful. The hosts were so kind and were available for anything we needed. Definitely a place where we will be staying at again.

1 night at Cliff Mine Heights

A wonderful, quiet place with very nice, thoughtful hosts. This was the only place we could find in close proximity to Pittsburgh and you'd never know you were close to the city. Highly recommend!

You are required to have a permit for an overnight stay: Please sign this form before submitting your stay request. https://alleghenylandtrust.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Camping-at-Sycamore-Island-Rules-and-Regulations-4.5.16-Fillable.pdf Please plan your visit in advance- requests to camp the same day or day before may not receive a timely approval.

Acquired and protected by Allegheny Land Trust in 2008, Sycamore Island is a floodplain forest with a ranking of “high significance” within the Allegheny River Biological Diversity Area (BDA) Natural Heritage Area. Before the island was protected by ALT, the island had periodic interludes of recognition and appreciation by humans as a natural refuge. In 1936, both Sycamore Island and Nine Mile Island were leased from the Pennsylvania Railroad by the Audubon Society of Western Pennsylvania, making these islands the first bird sanctuaries in the Pittsburgh region. The Harbor Isle Boat Club was in existence on the island during the late 1960s but was later abandoned leaving behind several significant features; including a barge that remains embedded in the sand at the island’s southern tip, a partially installed swimming pool, docking platform, and a series of offshore pilings in the back channel.

Burnhead Grazings

4 sites · Lodging, Tents68 acres · Indiana , PA

The rich history of Burnhead Grazings is enveloped in a love for God's creation. Dr. Gib and Emmy Lou McLaughlin purchased Burnhead, which is Gaelic for the head of the stream, from William H. Stevens. The once pasture for Hilltop Dairy's cows became a pasture for sheep. Gib and Emmy had been in search of land for years after getting their first border collie and falling in love with the Shepherd lifestyle. Gib trained dozens of border collies to work the sheep and did hundreds of demonstrations highlighting the herding abilities of the collie across the country. Their love for Scotland and the border collie took them Scotland on many occasions. Burnhead Grazings is a snapshot of Scotland, "in bye" or close to, the beautiful college town of Indiana, PA. Less than two miles from two hotels, three miles from downtown, and within minutes from Amish country, it is amazing that this respite still exists so close to civilization. Gib and Emmy's daughter, Moire McLaughlin Bridges and her husband Randy have endeavored to bring the sheep back to Burnhead Grazings and to continue the family tradition as well as to share in the experience. You can listen to an interview on The Christian Witness Program on this page for some history about Moire and Randy in Tennessee where they were residing before coming to Indiana. They are producing lamb, wool for spinning and felting, and hay and are opening up the farm for small events such as weddings or family reunions. Moire is also the author and illustrator of a children's book available for sale on iBooks called Sissy & The King. In November of 2014, with the help of Hilltop Baptist Church and many others, they began hosting an event, LIFE Nativity, the weekend before Thanksgiving, which benefits Life-Way Pregnancy Center. Moire is also a fine artist and gives classes on wool felting. Ask about signing up for a class or book a private felting party.

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.

Sunset Valley

1 site · Tent104 acres · Parker, PA

We have 104 acres along the Allegheny river that we are willing to share with people who enjoy the outdoors. My husband and I, have been living here for twenty years and just enjoy the beauty this valley has to offer. We see bald eagles everyday, and every once in while some otters can be seen playing in the river. Black Fox Island is visible downstream and provides a pool in the river that is a mile long. A person can easily paddle upstream; when the river is at normal summer levels. Over 100 years ago, this was an industrial area with railroads, deep mines, strip mines, and gristmills. Some remnants of those times are still visible. Paddling, biking, walking, fishing and swimming are some of the activities to do here, but doing nothing and watching the river go by seems to be the most popular.
