The property includes a 34X24 pavilion, a swing set, a fire pit, a portapotty, a porch swing, picnic tables, etc. It is located directly on the West Branch of the Conococheague Creek. You can enjoy kayaking, fishing, being right on the creek, and peace and quiet. There is also a mowed section along the creek that allows you easy access to the water with a small rock-style beach. The land is pretty much all flat and you can pitch a tent/s anywhere. There is plenty of room to park a camper/rv in multiple locations.

Nestled within 45 acres of wooded hills and valleys, Estes Place offers a tranquil retreat just 5 miles from the Town of Hancock. Situated near the scenic C&O Rail Trail, ideal for paved walking, running, and biking, our location also boasts proximity to popular eateries such as IHOP, Burger King, Pizza Hut, and a variety of local dining options.
With capacity for over a dozen tent sites, each offering unique accessibility, seclusion, and amenities, Estes Place caters to a range of camping preferences. Our two main sites feature fire rings for campfires (weather permitting), along with a porta-potty for convenience. Site one is accessible to small campers and pop-up trailers, while sites 3 and beyond are accessible by walking, backpacking, ATV, or very small compact 4WD vehicles.
Explore approximately 2 miles of moderate to intense loop hiking trails and gravel roads, meandering past half a dozen year-round streams and foot-long waterfalls teeming with salamanders, frogs, and crayfish.
Experience the vibrant wildlife that inhabits our surroundings, from daily sightings of deer and squirrels to nightly visits from barred owls and bats. Keep an eye out for occasional appearances by turkey, sapsuckers, woodpeckers, porcupines, raccoons, foxes, and coyotes, with the possibility of encountering a black bear annually and even a rare sighting of a mountain lion. During March through June, lucky visitors may stumble upon up to 8-inch black morel mushrooms, while certain years bring the elusive cicada and their deafening buzz. Summer nights are illuminated by enchanting displays of lightning bugs (fireflies) amidst the warmer temperatures.

There is some cell service, but it is limited. Can you hear me now? Be sure to save site information on your phone before you leave, in case you lose cell-service. This is not Alaska, but it is not a KOA campground, either. We recommend you print of bring a paper map. Your GPS will not bring you to the exact driveway location. You need to be personally observant.
This is the top of a mountain ridge. The access lane is steep, rocky, and has water erosion ditches you must drive over. Do not attempt this if you have a low profile car or a new/fragile camper. 4WD/AWD is highly recommended. Low profile and fancy cars are not recommended. This camping site is for those who want to live ruggedly like Lewis Clark. To see the water ditches you must drive over, go to YouTube and search "Wilbur's Shed - Blairs Mills", and it is the account of a cat with a white face.
This location is in a mix of farmland and mountain Appalachia. You will see common species such as chipmunks, squirrels turkey and deer. Many bird species. There are also porcupines, skunks, and black snakes around. You may also see black bear - it is rare, but possible. You are visiting wildlife species in their natural habitat. Please be self-aware of your own level comfort with wildlife. Once again, this is not an RVs park where you will socialize with a hundred other campers. This is primitive and isolated. This is an ideal camping spot if you want to escape from people.
Nearby is the Tuscarora Creek which is excellent for trout fishing. The Tuscarora has a small but lovely window for kayaking from mid-March through the end of May. Please contact the host if you would like help to plan some paddle logistics.
Rental through Hipcamp does not include hunting or the use of firearms, nor the use of dirt bikes and ATVs.

Great camping spot with an amazing setup for outdoor activities. The access to the water was perfect for fishing and kayaking, making it easy to enjoy the whole day outside. One of the highlights was the cavern only about a 1.2 mile walk away — definitely worth the short hike. Peaceful, scenic, and a great place to relax and explore. We’ll definitely be back!

Beautiful location!
Greg was easy to communicate with & went above & beyond making his sites comfy & shaded.
Only stayed one night but we were able to take a great walk along the canal path that is down the hill before you get to river.
We were saying how we’d like to stay longer next time while exiting & almost didn’t make it out!!
Unfortunately, the grade back to the driveway was too steep for us. Would not recommend anything but a four-wheel-drive vehicle for both upper AND lower campsites. We were driving a converted ram Promaster 3500 extended.
Our running boards did not fare well would’ve loved to return but not worth it without 4WD.

This was the best camping experience we’ve ever had. My friends and I gathered at hilltop one for a birthday campout weekend. The site is spectacular with an expansive view of the mountains and the moonrise. This land is sacred, you can feel the care that has gone into tending it. Greg is an absolute gem. He anticipated our needs the entire time and we parted as friends. He went above and beyond to help us have the most amazing time. Thank you Greg!!! We can’t wait to come back!!!

I was looking to camp originally in or near a state park by Bedford. While the campsites I found were adequate with decent amenities, I was stunned by the photos of the Tall Oaks site. I booked and paid for two days to meet the minimum booking period, but could only stay for one. Mason was very patient and a great host. He met us at the entrance of the campsite and lead us to our area with a brief explanation of everything. The house rules were clear and did not make us feel restrained. The campsite had a great view and no one else around that day. The firewood burned easily. I heard a cascade of animal sounds I hadn't heard before at night. A very enjoyable experience. There is a network of small trails onsite and a small outdoor games area with a very charming tree house. In the morning we used the bathroom beside the clubhouse near the entrance off the highway. The bathroom had a large shower, a cool skylight, and information about mountain biking and other amenities Grouseland offers. Outside were some cute goats looking at us as we left. Great stay, would recommend and stay again. Thanks so much Mason.

Our first time camping here and we absolutely loved it! We camped at hilltop two and the views were absolutely incredible. It was super easy to find and Greg’s hospitality was so kind. This place is so perfect because the drive from Virginia has the best views and goes through really beautiful and scenic views to get to the site. Once on the site, we were able to go on several walks along the sea and O canal path and there is access to the river as well. I definitely recommend this site and we are coming back for sure!

My grandson, daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Paradise at the Pond. This large camping area has wonderful vista’s of the farmland as well as the mountains behind. The owners keep firewood stocked and the grounds is well manicured grass. It’s a great place to relax and is just 15 minutes to Raystown Lake where we keep a boat. We’ve reserved 6 visits this summer and fall—just love the setup.
