Upon arrival, we were greeted by Allen and the kids, and had such a pleasant experience. He drove out belongings and some of us down the the glamping site and was kind and welcoming. The tent was clean, comfortable and warm. We had all the firewood we needed, cooking supplies, composting toilet in the outhouse, water. My husband and I had a great time with our son and teenage nephews. Highly recommend the beautiful surrounding scenery of the lake and woods and wildlife. I didn’t get to meet Donna, but she is very friendly and communicative. Thank you for a great stay!

This glamping tent was PERFECT!!! Donna, Alan, and Tyrion 🐱 were perfect hosts. The heater in the tent was great for the colder nights and my puppy loved the land to sniff around. Very close to Rickette’s Glen state park and local to some cidery’s and winery’s. We even checked out a drive-in movie when we were there. If you’re looking to unplug and to have some privacy, this is perfect :)

🍁Paper Mill Pines Glamping Getaway is a lovely Hipcamp in Shickshinny, PA. Words can not adequately convey just how amazing this place is. 🏕️. The serenity of the wind and trees, tranquility of the pond, the sight of the crackling campfire, sounds of birds chirping, roosters crowing, and critters scurrying about in the fallen leaves - and the calm of morning, with stillness sitting all around you. It is just so peaceful. Being in nature feeds your soul. We will absolutely be back! 🍂

Secluded, wooded, lush site adjacent to a peaceful waterfall stream. The 10x12 canvas expedition tent is perched on a homemade platform ready to enjoy.

What a nice site! Exactly as described and nicely secluded and quiet. Tent was very spacious and clean. Plenty of firewood was available for purchase and the outhouse was spotless. Will definitely be planning a return visit…perhaps during warmer months to explore the nice creek flowing behind the site. Adam was also very responsive and easy to work with.

Weekend Trip to Paper Mill Pines Glamping Getaway

we had the best weekend at paper mill pines. as people who don’t usually camp, we felt so safe, welcomed, and totally looked after. the hosts were incredible, so kind and genuine the entire time. the site had everything we could have needed, even after overpacking. the coleman bundle was a must, the bluetooth speaker somehow lasted the whole trip, and the firewood supply never ended. the bathroom was spotless, and the 4x4 drive into the site made it feel like a real little adventure. just a heads up for t-mobile users, there’s no service, so download your playlists ahead of time. our group of five left with full hearts, full stomachs, and so many good memories. can’t recommend this place enough

We had such a great experience camping here! The site itself was beautiful — peaceful, clean, and surrounded by nature. We camped with our two-year-old, and it couldn’t have been a better fit for our family. Everything we needed was right there, which made the whole trip so much easier with a little one. It really felt like the perfect balance of comfort and the outdoors. It’s not always easy to find a campsite that works so well for families with young children, but this one truly exceeded our expectations. We’re already looking forward to coming back and would absolutely recommend it to anyone, whether you’re camping with kids or just looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

The campsite was well maintained and provided basic supplies. My favorite part was waking up in the morning to the gorgeous view of the pond and enjoying our morning tea next to the fire. The stay was very peaceful but there’s also lots of activities to do nearby.

This was such a lovely experience all around. Adam was very friendly and helpful. It is exactly as advertised, and the amenity efforts (e.g. precut wood, 5 G of water by the site, a propane heated shower and more!) were the exact things that only save you time and energy to enjoy the more relaxing parts of camping. With the stream alongside, it is such a fun and special spot!

Weekend Trip to Mountainside Waterfall Retreat

We had a great time at the campsite! Beautiful creek. Quiet and very secluded. The place was set up perfectly w dry wood and a nice setup for grilling. Also a torch to ignite and kindling. Our cooler fit great in the bearproof box and so did a lot of our other stuff. We appreciated the hammock being there and the tent was great. Roomy and clean. Easily fit a queen and two twin air mattresses and all our bags with room to spare. Bathroom was clean and nice, Wash sink was far from the site not as useful as we would have hoped but no big deal. Adam and Karen were very nice and helped us get heavy items up to and back from the site. Some of the spots on the trail up are steep so pack light or ask the hosts for help getting up. Once youre up the hill you wont really want to go back and forth

10+/10 My girlfriends and I had the best campy, elvin, woodland forest time on Adam’s property. It’s stunning! The forest is so friendly, there’s an incredible waterfall right by the tent, and the hosts themselves were so kind and welcoming. This spot is perfect for anyone wanting a get away that feels secluded but offers the amenities of a nearby town and hosts (if you need them—they are super responsive and helpful). Upon arriving, the hosts were home to help us lug our stuff up the 5ish minute hike to the camp spot with an atv. That was a life saver for how much we packed. I do recommend you have some agility to be able get to the camp spot, especially carrying some of your stuff. It’s not a long way up but it’s a hike. At the top it’s well worth it for the privacy, we were never told we were being loud even though we danced all night around a campfire and howled at the moon. The spot itself has everything you need. Spacious, cozy tent slept 4 of us comfortably, a locked case to put the cooler when sleeping or away, a table, a fire pit, and even a shower for after you go tubing on the Delaware! You can’t go wrong here. We will definitely be back again and again!!
