We run a working farm where we raise cattle and pigs and farm the ground to feed our cattle. We have a passion to share the farm experience with people and we thought this could be another way to share some of our blessing with you.
We have a single secluded camp spot tucked in between corn fields and pasture. You can enjoy the peaceful setting of farm county and the view of cattle grazing right next to your camp.

The camping spot itself is so nice! The views are amazing! They even have the sweetest little sets of lights going from the driveway up to the camping spot.
Unfortunately, I got stuck trying to pull my camper up their street. But the host David was amazing and he went and got my camper and brought it all the way up to the campsite for me! I couldn't have asked for any more hospitality.!!

This was an unbelievable spot. The scenery was gorgeous and the site was a dream- you’re at the top of a hill with stunning views but the clearing itself is flat and level with full hookup facilities, fire pit, picnic table and even trash & recycling bins onsite. We arrived after dark but David’s instructions were clear and the path is well defined with small solar lights that were bright enough to indicate the driveway but dim enough that we could still see all the stars at night. We loved visiting the dairy farm down the road and watching the birds in the trees surrounding the site. It felt like a private piece of paradise. Thank you for sharing your land with us!

Everything was clean and well maintained. Loved the wooden platforms, string of lights, fire pit. Unexpected bonus was some firewood and two hammocks already set up. Gorgeous view of the river and so convenient to the bike trail. Check in was a breeze. Note: As an active freight rail line goes alongside the bike trail and river, do expect train whistles and noise several times a night.

Wonderful property and host! We had a fabulous stay for a long weekend and loved the peaceful atmosphere and beautiful surroundings. David was very informative with his directions and was so welcoming. We loved having electric and water on site and the campsite was very clean and having trash bins was a nice touch. We enjoyed watching the hot air balloons and the location was convenient to visit local breweries and Valley Forge Historical Park. We will definitely be back!

This might be the most beautiful HipCamp spot I’ve stayed at so far! It’s secluded but also nicely centrally located! Having a full hookup was also so nice, the sewage connection was a tad higher than my RV connection so it took a little longer when we did dump but so convenient nonetheless! I’d 100% stay again!

We had such a wonderful stay at Hardscrabble Hill! The property is absolutely beautiful, the evenings were especially lovely and the night sky was filled with stars. It's a terrific place to make s'mores over a bonfire. The campsite is also in a great location, fairly close to both Philadelphia and Lancaster, which made it really convenient.
David, the host, was fantastic! He was extremely helpful and answered all of our questions quickly and kindly. His hospitality made our stay even better.
We truly enjoyed our time here and will definitely be back. Highly recommend Hardscrabble Hill to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful getaway!
