Weekend Trip to Sunset Valley

My friend and I camped out this week end at sunset valley and we love the place, well maintained, beautiful scenery. Great host and private. If your curious how beautiful this place “you can check out my youtube channel: Elirita Shurina” I normally won’t do reviews but I feel like doing so cuz Valerie the owner was very welcoming. Thank you for sharing your land to the campers like us.

Weekend Trip to Sunset Valley

We arrived on 6/6 and left 6/8. I would very highly recommend this place. As much as I want to keep it a secret bc this place is amazing and will be booking quickly I’m sure. I met with Paul right when I got there. Great communication. The awesome thing was he showed me how to get to the site. He also had a print out of the rules, emergency services near by, and so much more. The property is so beautiful as you will see in the pics. It’s a huge site and very well kept. There are so many spots you can choose from but if you have a large group, get there first to get right off the river bank. The view of the river and the homes across are great. Even though there are houses across the river it’s not like they are right there. You still hear the sounds of nature all night. Great spots for fishing or just chilling by the fire. If you forget your bait, there were a lot of dead/sleeping crickets in the am I am sure the fish would love to grab. Lol Anyone that solo camps. I would recommend booking here. It is secluded but also very safe. We also got to meet Vallerie and she gave us some recommendations on things do to also. The area is cell kept around the site but also the road getting there. There is a porta potty onsite and I honestly have never seen one so darn clean. That was an extra plus. Once again I would 100% recommend this place but I’m wanting to come back for my birthday in August so y’all don’t book it up. Thank you Paul and Vallerie for letting us stay.

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 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!

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.

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

Had a wonderful time camping at Chris’ land. The stargazing is no joke! Once it gets dark the field is full of so many constellations. Comfortable set up. Best compost toilet Iv’e ever used. Chris was very nice.

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

We love camping here! It's our second year and we will be back. My kids had so much fun and we enjoyed taking walks around the absolutely beautiful land. The host is so friendly and inviting. The pines canopy was so beautiful with all the pine trees and it was a very private spot.

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

Was a perfect weekend getaway! Our top of the jeep tent worked perfect. Campsite was clean, beautiful setting, level enough and well maintained. Was wonderful to meet Chris and his family - most gracious hosts. Enjoyed just relaxing and meandering through the woods and meadow on easy to follow trails. Loved finding the falls and appreciated the little bridge and steps down. Only con was little bit noisy and that was maybe due to holiday weekend. Lot of ATV or maybe dirt bike noise carried up through the canyon and Sunday shooting at the firing range. None of that under Chris’s control and wasn’t unbearable but it was unexpected. Saw deer and awoke to birds singing. Even heard an owl Saturday night which was super cool. Campsites are spaced to where you don’t hear one another with plenty of elbow room. Wish could have seen more of the river from the site but can’t complain about the lush foliage can we?? Overall loved it and shout out to Chris and his family for their hospitality and for all the work they have put in. Great people! Of note, there is a porta potty kinda centrally located for all the sites to access BUT just easier to find a secluded spot on your own without making that walk.

1 night at Fombell Landing

We really enjoyed camping here! Lots of flat land for setting up a tent and listening to the stream was so relaxing. The only small issues that we ran into involved the outhouse; the outhouse wasn’t bolted into the ground (at least in the front, I didn’t check the back), so it was a bit rickety. There was also a good deal of broken glass on the hill leading up to the outhouse. Aside from that, it was a wonderful campsite!

1 night at Footbridge Haven Farm

I loved tent camping here on Curtis's farm! The spot was so cute and was bigger than I thought it'd be. Having the shelter would have been perfect if it happened to rain. Sleeping next to the babbling brook was super relaxing, I definitely want to come back when it's warmer to splash around.

Weekend Trip to All Ferns Most of the Time

This was our second stay at this spot and we really like it. The fireplace and deck + picnic table are a great addition to the pretty nature. The only issue we had was some other campers setting off fireworks which really freaked out our dogs. Otherwise it's a very friendly place for dogs and we would come back at any time that isn't a holiday weekend.

Weekend Trip to Burnhead Grazings

Its beautiful...I mean actually beautiful. From the moment we arrived we were highly impressed by the scenery. The site is easy to access. The hosts were inviting and completely exceeded our expectations. We are so happy to have found this hidden gem close to home. This felt like a perfect wholesome family experience. You can't help but relax being here. Absolutely can't wait to be back!

Weekend Trip to Runnin Crazy Farm

Thanks again for the ample firewood at the site! This site is next to fields where I saw goats on one side and a horse on the other.

1 night at River Hills Above the Allegheny

this was one of our favorite campsites we’ve seen! the space was so secluded & peaceful, it was everything we could’ve ever imagined. the host was so responsive, made sure we were in good hands, and was so accommodating for our spontaneous last minute trip!! (: we will 1000% be staying here again in the near future, and will be recommending it to anyone and everyone. we also stopped at the crows cupboard in the afternoon for coffee and pastries, and had the most lovely time there. the owner was so kind, genuine, and ensured we had everything we needed and more. thank you chris for a lovely time on your campsite! (: we look forward to visiting again soon!

1 night at River Hills Above the Allegheny

Ok, here's the deal: if you are looking for a place to just be in nature, get away from the noise, and have privacy - you need to book this spot immediately. I had the pleasure of meeting Chris & chatting with him a bit about his property. He's a lovely host, and very accommodating. The waterfall area alone is reason to book this site. No crowds. Just you (and your crew, if you prefer). I seriously felt like I was in a LOTR movie, frolicking around barefoot on the rocks. The land is gorgeous. The waterfall and stream are so relaxing. If you're seeking a private, secluded feeling - Pine Canopy is for you! Plenty of trees to hang hammocks on and you felt cozy in your own little corner of the woods. Plus, the compost toilet is super close (if that's a concern for you). The toilets were clean, which was cool. If you're wanting a more expansive view - then you've got to book the River Ridge site. FWIW, I have a Rav4 Hybrid that was fine going up the trail. I just made sure the conditions were ok, and Chris had done a great job of putting rocks down. It actually rained overnight so the trail was muddy and I made it down the path with no issue. Honestly the best part for me? My dog was able to roam free! She was so happy running around the property, free as could be, just like her wild self. It was awesome. 100 out of 10 // will absolutely book again // and tell all of my friends

Weekend Trip to Fombell Landing

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Curts Camp, and it was a fantastic experience! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by our host, who went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. His genuine kindness added a personal touch that made our stay even more enjoyable. The campsite itself is beautifully maintained, nestled in a rural spot with close residences, its just secluded enough, and was quiet and felt like we were out in the middle of nowhere! Whether you prefer setting up a tent or parking an RV, there are plenty of spots to choose from, all surrounded by nature, water and the soothing sounds of nature. Our host provided us with handy tips on local attractions, hiking trails, and even shared a few secrets for fishing. It was clear he is passionate about this area and truly wants guests to have the best possible experience. If you're looking for a peaceful getaway with warm hospitality, I highly recommend staying here. I can't wait to return for another adventure!

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

Beautiful land, woods, view, water fall/swimming hole (it’s a bit cold on May, but you get used to it, bring your water shoes to hike the creek!) Compost toilets were nice and clean. Plenty of wood to scavenge if you forget to bring, or Venmo at their wood stack for a bundle. Pine Canopy is very private. As well as the overlook one.

Weekend Trip to All Ferns Most of the Time

We loved the spot. Secluded and lots of ferns! Would definitely stay again. Very close to ohiopyle state park as well.

DLR Mustang Ranch

2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents17 acres · Salineville, OH

Located roughly 20 miles from Beaver Creek State Park, DLR Mustang Ranch is a 17-acre peaceful sanctuary for many wild and previously wild mustangs. The Ranch offers veteran and first responder mustang programs year-round. Accommodations include a small one-room cabin nestled on a little pond. The cabin has electricity, a microwave, small refrigerator, tv, futon, heating and cooling; however, it does not have plumbing. Nearby is an outhouse with electricity and a water pump fed from well water. There is a firepit for cooking and picnic tables available. There is also flat space for tent camping beside the cabin area. If a more secluded area is preferred, there is a 4-acre field in the back of the property surrounded by woods; however, it should be noted the only outhouse is located by the cabin. Splitting the property in half at the bottom of a wooded hill is a quiet stream full of small wildlife. Coyotes often cut through the woods and the 4-acre pasture. There is space for an RV in the driveway next to the woods with electric hookup and access to the outhouse, water pump, and firepit. While this is a working ranch with farm animals, our aim is to create a peaceful relaxing environment in order to unwind and enjoy the creation around us. Going in the pastures with horses while unaccompanied by the owners is prohibited; however, it can be arranged for you to meet and interact with the mustangs if interested. There are other farm animals including sheep, a goat, pigs, donkeys, peacocks, turkeys, chickens and ducks on the premises. If you want a quaint country escape complete with farm sounds, this is the spot for you!

Sycamore Island can only be reached by canoe, kayak, or rowboat. 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.

We are able to review and respond to camping requests Monday - Friday between 9 am - 5 pm. 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.

My wife and I and our four children moved to this 25 acre farm in 2017, and the creek and adjoining Mammoth Park soon became our favorite spots to relax. Our two boys swim and fish in the holes, while the girls enjoy picking flowers and making "houses" among the trees. We also love hosting friends and family for cookouts, or spending a Sunday afternoon in the cool shade beside the creek. On our 15 acres of pasture land, we raise chickens, pigs, a few dairy cows, and some steers. We are not a certified organic farm, but we raise our animals on pasture grass as much as possible, without chemicals or synthetic fertilizers.

All Ferns Most of the Time

1 site · RV, Tent20 acres · Rockwood, PA

This spot is best for a van camp location but plenty of space for tents and hammocks. You'll find a drive-up deck if you wish to park there. Firewood is available providing you use downfalls as kindling in the stone fire pit. A 8x20' deck and picnic table are 20 feet from the fire for stargazing. When the ferns are full grown they are 3 feet tall and everywhere. A 10 minute walk takes you through a dense pine forest with large rock formations and a nice creek with many gurgling fall areas. If there looks like a cave amongst the large rocks, then it probably is a bear den. There is a lot to do near by. Some note worthy locations : Cranberry Glade Lake (good for kayaking or fishing), Ohiopyle, 7 Springs, Fallingwater, Living Treasures, Caddie Shak, and Hidden Valley are all about 25 minutes away. This property also borders Laurel Ridge State Park. There is a Dollar General and a gas station about 15 minutes away for convenience needs.

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.
