Enjoy the private back acre of our 2-acre parcel. RV parking is separated from the main house by a barn and Morton building. Set up camp overlooking what used to be a grassy yard, but is now a walkable wildflower meadow. Enjoy the meadow paths and entire property's yard. Pets are welcome, but must be leashed at all times - our dog is friendly, but will also be leashed when outside. The house and barn were built in the late 1800s and are currently being restored. There will be no construction activity during your stay, but there may be assorted projects in process visible near buildings. Please do not enter buildings unless accompanied by a property owner. Many restaurants, breweries, distilleries and parks are just minutes away in Bellefonte! When visiting them, we recommend going straight out of our driveway onto Clemens instead of turning right onto Valentine Hill.

5 nights at Pear Tree Cove

Pear Cove is a great place to stay. We have stayed several times to watch our daughter’s final season playing soccer for a local college. We have always had a great time with no issues. The pad is as nice as you will find with newly poured concrete and equally new full hookups. The pad is the perfect size for our 30ft class A. It is a quiet location in the country but only 10 minutes to Lock Haven University and any amenities you may need. The hosts are also awesome people that make sure all is as it should be. We highly recommend this location.

We love staying at Pear Tree as its so close to our favorite bike trail, Pine Creek Trail. Has a lot of experiences nearby such as Elk Country and fall leaf viewing. Its provides he best thought out and improved pad for our trailer and has a little fegetable garden that you can pick from. Great for Starlink and the hosts are great.

The pergola is furnished with some chairs and tables. It's a great spot day or night to relax, read, drink, play card games, or just enjoy being surrounded by nature.

Weekend Trip to Meadow View Near PSU

We had a great weekend staying at Amanda’s land for the weekend for a Penn State game. Just 15 mins from Beaver Stadium it’s a quick ride. We parked our car and set up camp. Amanda was very hospitable and I would recommend this spot. Also great views of the meadows, we were lucky enough to have a beautiful sunset as we cooked up some burgers and dogs.

Weekend Trip to Pear Tree Cove

This was our first time camping with our camper and this spot was perfect! A quiet weekend getaway was just what we needed and it was so nice to be in the comfort of the farm setting. Very quiet, but a quick drive to restaurants stores and other things to do. The garden was amazing, we made fresh salsa with the tomatoes, peppers and dill. The wifi was a bit unstable but we weren't complaining because it felt wonderful to unplug. We spent most of our time at the fire pit relaxing with our pups who seemed to enjoy their time just as much as we did! Thanks Erin for a great trip.

One of the nicest HipCamps we have stayed. The site is immaculate with a concrete pad situated in the valley of a farm. The site has full hookups which were in great condition.. The hosts are also very nice and make you feel right at home. They even surround the pad with a vegetable garden and fruit trees that campers are free to enjoy. We had a nice salad with fresh tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. We highly recommend this camp and have already booked multiple return stays.

Weekend Trip to Pear Tree Cove

Pear Tree Cove was a quiet and quaint little spot—perfect for a peaceful overnight stay. The concrete RV pad was thoughtfully bordered with a beautiful, fresh vegetable garden, which added such a charming and welcoming touch. There were several cozy spots to sit and relax while taking in the lovely views of the farm, making it easy to unwind and enjoy the surroundings. Thanks so much for a delightful and restful stay—we truly appreciated the care and detail put into this special place!

Nice private site with a spacious flat concrete pad and full hook-ups. Lots of great places for walking/hiking nearby, and close to a small town if you need anything. The site was great and the farm is beautiful, but it wasn’t as secluded as I was expecting (several neighbors and road traffic visible/audible from the site).
