Wife and I had a great time here, perfect for a weekend get-a-way. Tom was super nice and showed us around his property and farm. Having a bathroom at easy access was nice too.

2 nights at Fairview Farms Airfield
Our time in the treehouse was magical. It was my 13 year old son and I. He is 6’1” and he was able to comfortably sleep in the loft. Bill and everyone at Fairview Farms was welcoming, friendly and helpful. The stargazing was phenomenal; I highly recommend a dip in the hot tub under the stars. I would recommend bringing a heated blanket in the colder months. I brought ours and it was the perfect mix of cold and snuggly warm. There is a heater that works like a charm, with the blanket we only used it during the day.

We had a wonderful time camping at site 2 at Tom's place. It was so peaceful and beautiful and a short walk away from some great trails at the next door neighboring park. Room was a great host. He spent a while with us to show us around, introduce us to his goats, chickens and geese, and tell us the history of the area and his property. He had a working bathroom, a coffee machine, which was awesome because i forgot my coffee, and we bought a dozen of his farm eggs. After that he gave us our space and privacy but let us know he was available if we needed him. We can't wait to come back.

We had a great weekend camping at Tom's place. Site 2 was private and wooded. We loved interacting with the goats. Tom was an excellent host, and having a real bathroom available was a big plus for my group. You do have to cart your belonging down a hill (and back up when you leave), but sturdy carts are provided, and it maintains the peace and quiet of the camping spots. Would definitely recommend to others.

We had a great time camping here. We arrived in the dark later than anticipated and Tom graciously met us when we arrived and took us to our site. Site 4 is up against the tree line a short walk from where you park next to the house. You aren’t deep in the woods but there is tree cover above you. You’re also set away from other sites, so it feels very private. The site is sort of in a hill, but it has a few spots that were flat enough for our tent. The site has a fire ring, picnic table with tablecloth, a few plastic lawn chairs, and a plastic end table. There are a couple of chicken coops as well as geese, goats, and sheep which were all fun to visit. There’s a small “camp store” (mudroom) attached to the house which is open 24/7 and is only a couple minute walk from the camp site. The bathroom is accessed from the mudroom. There is coffee, s’mores kits, and other camp necessities for sale if you forgot anything. There are carts available to get your gear to your site. There was plenty of deadfall wood around for the weekend,, but Tom brought some split wood straight to our campsite and we had a very nice chat. There is direct access to the Hibernia Park Rim Park Trail from Tom’s property and we had a great hike along it. Overall, we highly recommend this site.

We had such a great time here! There was 7 adults, 1 baby, and 4 dogs and we had plenty of space!! Gorgeous in the fall, and they had plenty of firewood for us to use. I recommend this place and we hope to come back! You do hear the raceway noise but it’s not a big deal and it’s nice and quiet overnight!

Bill and Erin were so helpful and friendly; you can tell they love creating a great experience for their guests. Give Yeti another hug for me when you see that giant white dog guarding the goat; he is the true g.o.a.t. Lol.
The tree house is amazing. It's exactly the type of club house my husband and I wanted as kids. The loft and ladder are super sturdy; I'm over 300 pounds with a bum knee and still shimmied up into the loft to sleep on the comfy queen mattress. We stayed in last September when it was like in the 70s during the day but 50s at night, and we never felt cold in the loft. Pro-tip: the light and ceiling fan in the first floor has a remote, so don't use the light switch.
Outside, under the house, is a little outdoor kitchen area with a propane griddle. That thing was so convenient. We had fresh eggs from the chickens on the property and pancakes in the morning with minimal fuss. It was such a relief after a day exploring the outdoors to just ignite that griddle for hamburgers and hot dogs instead of using my camp stove or the grate over the campfire. The fire pit did have a grate if you prefer to grill over an open flame, so options!
My favorite part was nighttime. Everyone was super respectful of noise policy, so with the exterior lights off, it was us, the insects, the night birds, at least one coyote, and the stars. Pure magic.

It was a great location for hiking In Hibernia Park. I stayed at site 4. it felt secluded and there's plenty of woods. Downside was hauling things from the car but each trip got easier. I will definitely return

2 nights at Fairview Farms Airfield
Our stay at the farm was a perfect peaceful getaway. The cozy treehouse was charming and comfortable, nestled in a great location near a state park within walking distance. Watching the beautiful sunset from the ridge was a highlight—absolutely breathtaking. The hosts were accommodating, with a sunset hayride, firewood and tomatoes from the garden, making the experience even more enjoyable.

My boyfriend and I were looking for somewhere to camp for my birthday. So happy we decided to stay here! Perfect little spot. We arrived later than expected, around 8PM and Tom, the host, came out to guide us around the area in the dark. He showed us our spot and even some of his Animals. He is a very helpful and friendly Host ! We booked site 1 and loved it. It is slightly less secluded than the other 3 sites that are a little deeper in the woods. But I would rebook this spot again anytime. We really loved the large stone fire pit! There is also a nice trail behind the property along the river that was nice to walk in the mornings. My boyfriend and I brought kayaks with us and spent a day at chambers lake in hibernia park which is right around the corner. Beautiful area and perfect place to get away and relax in the wilderness. Thanks for having us! We definitely will be back!

What wonderful place to spend some time in nature. We loved our stay in the treehouse. There is a fire pit just outside and we made dinner over the fire while enjoying all of the gorgeous views of the farm. The bed in the loft was cozy and there was plenty of space in the tree house for us and our medium size pup. A friend camped in a tent below with his doggo too. Thanks to Bill for taking us on a ride to see everything! The goats, chickens, ducks, and vintage plane gave us plenty to do and look at. Can’t wait to come back again this fall!

Ok my favorite thing about this site was Bah the goat, but there was a lot to love. Bah hung out with us for a good long while and was perfect company. She is truly special. It was great to have access to a bathroom (a short walk away), and the carts to move belongings down to the site were clinch. Site 1 is the most “exposed” and the other sites, if occupied, will need to walk past you to set up and go to the restroom. That was fine for us, but good to know for your planning. The proximity to Hibernia State Park was amazingggg. We got to swim in the Brandywine and hike around, enjoy the beautiful weather. Tom has many cute goats, loud but ultimately avoidant geese, and chickens who did stay in their coop but would have been welcome in my tent lol. The firepit was well maintained and some grates were provided. We would definitely come back to this location, especially since it’s so close to Philly.

Our favorite HipCamp site. Tom is great. His farm is lovely. Camping here is the perfect blend of being out in the woods, but with a bathroom you can walk to. The fireplace is so well built. There are shady spots and sunny spots to pitch your tent. A table and bench. Its minimal, which is perfect. Has everything you need.
Hibernia Park is a few minutes away by car or you can walk from his farm. Its a super well cared for park with playgrounds, trails, grills, Etc.
We will definitely be back. Thanks Tom!

Great spot to escape the city. Owner was communicative and grounds were clean. Lots of gated off goats and chickens to greet for the kids.
