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.

Enjoy 8 beautiful, secluded acres on the Conewago Creek at Bald Hill, Northern York Co. My homestead was once part of the Conewago Turf Farm. It borders the creek a length of 1100 feet, mostly maintained with easy access. Camp is at the base of a steep section of the Conewago Mountains, creating privacy and protection from wind and afternoon sun. This is not a whole house rental. I have a one bedroom, queen size bed, kitchenette, private restroom and outdoor shower with on demand hot water. There's plenty of room for tent or van camping. Please see pictures for detail. I live in the house above the glamping quarters.
Plenty of good fishing and paddling here. I offer shuttle service for 1 or 2 day float trips, paddle in one day, paddle out the next day. Canoes, kayaks, paddles and PFD's are included in the price of your stay.
The Conewago is very beginner paddling but remote, very clean and full of wildlife. Gifford Pinchot State Park is 7 miles away. I have two paddle boards if you want to paddle the 3 mile lake. This adventure would require a short hike out to a parking area.
Relax in a wood fired Norwegian sauna and cook in a Peruvian wood fired earth oven or cook under the stars over an open fire. Firewood is also included. Foodies will rejoice here.
I live and work here, part time blacksmith and wood worker. I'll assist you in any way or do my best to stay out of your way.
Wildlife love it here, I think you will too.

Note:
For the winter months we are closed, we reopen in march. The furthest we are open at any given moment is about six months. We close when hunting season comes in during the fall.
Description of camp:
This is not a glampsite! There are limited utilities here. No Drinking water, just water for the fire. There is a self serve firewood store, you may also forage dead wood. Here only one group may camp at a time. The campsite is a big level hilltop clearing surrounded by acres of woods. There is stone driveway that leads to the site that gets you back into the woods. The driveway is wide enough for trucks, trailers, vans, etc. Since the site is up high it gets a great breeze which helps on warm days and gets good cell service.
The campsite gets great sun and has shaded areas along the sides that make for good tent pitching. We have had people set up hammocks, tents, tarps, or camp in their vehicle. We provide a privy (outhouse), an outdoor showerroom/changing room, picnic tables, and a metal fire pit with grill rack that you can put in the fire pit if you wish to cook/grill over it. The woods are hilly so biking is not recommended.
Nearby Activities: A short drive from here will take you to Gettysburg, York, or Hanover. Codorus park offers great hiking and has a lake. There are many excellent restaurants and brewpubs nearby, including the award winning Warehouse Gourmet Bistro and Brewpub. For more information read our activities section to find out what other things we provide or have nearby that you can do.

We have a weeknight discount for the site which is 29 dollars (Sunday-Thurdsay nights). Friday night and Saturday night we charge 35 dollars. Any additional guests after five we charge 9.50 dollars per person. We allow up to 10 guests total.
Rules:
Extinguish camp fires that are unattended and to only make them in the designated fire pit, no noise past 9 o'clock, discharging of firearms and fireworks are prohibited, do not bring firewood (to prevent invasive bug spread), keep your pets attended/on a leash, clean up after your pets, no cutting down trees or damaging wildlife.

My stay at Wilbur's Shed was excellent. The property is nicely secluded with beautiful open fields, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet. The site has all the amenities needed for a comfortable camping experience, including water, tools, chairs, electricity, and even portable restrooms on site. One of the highlights was being able to sit outside at night and enjoy the incredible view of the stars with very little light pollution. It's an ideal spot for anyone looking to camp, unwind, and spend time alone in nature. Wilbur was a great host, and I would definitely recommend this location to anyone looking for a unique and comfortable camping getaway.

Tamara‘s land was a unique experience full of beauty! It was like staying at a museum., Tamara was a wonderful host, full of knowledge of the area. The location was perfect for resupplying hikers on the Appalachian Trail which it was our main reason for visiting. But we also loved relaxing under the shade of the trees, listening to the birds and surrounded by beautiful fields! It was a wonderful relaxing vacation!

Truly a magical experience! Every nook and cranny of this property was delightfully thought out for maximum pleasure and esthetics. Sherie & Rob were the most accommodating and friendly hosts.
The uber-clean single bathhouse, affectionately called the "hippie shower" by Sherie, made me feel like I was in a day spa. All shower products were provided, as well as dishwashing liquid. I joked with Hubby about extending our stay, but he immediately caught on that I just wanted to take more showers there rather than use our cramped teardrop shower. 🤭
We were in the area for my Juniata College reunion; a friend stayed in one of the rooms, while Hubby & I camped in Site 3, which was the most private of the campsites, while still close to the shared deck for campers overlooking the river.
We saw countless species of birds on our 6 days here, but the most fascinating were the birds feeding on the wing. A starling was nesting in the bathhouse, which only added to its charm.
We rented their kayaks with the intention of paddling upstream and float back, but the current was pretty strong -- next time, we'll opt for their shuttle so we only have to float back!
And yes, there will be a next time -- We will definitely camp here the next time we're back in the area!

Absolutely beautiful peaceful meadow/farm. We had no problem getting our 42' fifthwheel in and out. Property was very clean, mowed and well maintained. Firewood was waiting for us when we arrived plentiful and stored in a large storage box to keep it dry. Host was very friendly, helpful and welcoming without being intrusive. Bill is a wealth of knowledge on many topics. We enjoyed talking racing and tractors with him. Each site has a picnic table, fire ring, and large mature trees to provide shade. The donuts that are offered are delicious 😋 We chose instead of having delivered to go pick them up at nearby Emingee's where we met Bill's sister Melanie who was a delight. They also have many varieties of ice-cream made in house which we intended to go back for but we ran out of time. We'll be sure to get some next time though. We already have our next visit booked and I'm sure we'll be back for plenty more weekend adventures. Thank you so very much Bill and Melanie we look forward to seeing yall again soon!

My wife and I stayed for a three-day weekend getaway. The space was exactly as described. There are two neighbors on either side but honestly we never seen either neighbor the entire stay. The area is beautiful, peaceful, and very relaxing. There is a very busy frieght train track a few hundred yards from the site. It was slightly annoying at first. But honestly, it really didn't bother us. There is a very nice fire ring and picnic table on location. The owner provided plenty firewood. The site was level and easy to access. I did a full day Kayak trip (5-6hrs). Put the Kayak in at the free McVeytown boat ramp and floated right to the sight. The Juniata river was beautiful and fishing we pretty good( 4-5 fall fish and about a dozen decent sized smallies.). Just be warned removing the Kayak was a little tricky, you have to pull/carry it up a pretty steep bank with a small set of metal steps. But totally worth it! Ben was a great host and rapidly answered any questions we had. We will be back many more times and would recommend it for anyone looking to relax with a beautiful view the the river.

Set on a serene pasture of land in the middle of several shade trees, a pond and a bubbling brook, we awoke in the morning to birdsong and the cockadoodle doo of their rooster.
