Sleepy Hollow Campground

This property and farm has been in our family for 3 generations. In 1964 my grandfather started the campground due to limited camping at New Germany. My father tells stories of it being filled with guests all summer long! Over the years there was few upgrades and now it's in need of a facelift. Landscaping, electric upgrades and bathhouse remodels were completed Spring 2021. We will continue to renovate in phases it's been a labor of love, but you can still see the beauty of this rural location and enjoy the peace and quiet. 
Hope you enjoy your stay.

Lots of trees, shade and nature. It's located near New Germany State Park, 1.5 miles by car, less than a mile by foot. The state park has a lake and hiking trails. Garrett County has so much to offer, waterfalls, lakes, hiking, skiing, Amish gifts, history, fresh air, beautiful scenery. The campground was first started in 1964 by my grandparents, we are currently completing renovations in phases.

Wild Yough Glamping Huts

Wild Yough is located in Southern Garrett County, Maryland very close to Herrington Manor State Park, Swallows Falls State Park, and the quaint mountain village of Oakland. The property adjoins thousands of acres of Garrett State Forest and hundreds of acres of state land along the Youghiogheny River.  The world class Wisp resort and Deep Creek Lake are only minutes away.  “Yough” is short for Youghiogheny River a state designated wild and scenic river which runs through the heart of the property. Wild Yough Glamping huts are part of more than 350 acres of private land, most of which is crisscrossed with hiking and biking trails. Youghiogheny is an Algonquin word meaning “a stream flowing in a contrary direction”, or in the case of the Yough, North toward Ohio Pyle and Pittsburgh.  This section of the river is designated as a protected scenic corridor and you will feel the quiet isolation when sitting on the Crooked Butt Bench overlooking the big horseshoe bend in the river at the far back corner of our property.  And if the river is low during your visit, feel free to wade across to the other side – Wild Yough owns the entire peninsula of land on the other side of the river and this is also bordered by State land.The river banks are steep on the property, but the fishing for small mouth bass is exceptional.  There is a small turn around on the path just beyond Crooked Butt Bench where you can take out your canoe, kayak, or inner tubes after floating the 2+ miles from the Oakland bridge.  Just be prepared to walk your water craft back up to the house or Glamping site as there is no motorized access to the river.If you like to lay on the rocks in the sun or take the kids for some wading in the river, the best place is the farthest to walk to.  Take the trail to “High Bluff”, then cross the Snyder property line (Permission for trail access only – do not leave trail!), then descend down and cross the bridge across Herrington Manor Creek (a stocked trout stream!).  Wild Yough property is to your right along the river and there is a great place for lying in the sun, doing some fishing, or just wading into the cool waters of the Yough on a hot summer day.Learn more about this land:The idea is simple- our glamping site will offer a true camping experience without all the hassles and fuss.  With 350 acres of private ground, adjacent to thousands of acres of state park and forest, Wild Yough offers plenty of space to spread out, stretch your legs, watch the deer, and howl with the coyotes.  You won’t be packed into a row of RV’s or tents where you can hear your neighbor snoring.  You won’t have to set up camp in the rain.  And you’ll never have to sleep on the ground!   You’ll have your own heated hut, warm soft bed, and private space for long evenings around the campfire.  And our bathhouse and pavilion facilities are designed with comfort, cleanliness and relaxation in mind.  Oh yeah… large field for enjoying lawn games or just relaxing quietly under an endless blanket of evening stars.Each hut is furnished with a double bed, additional seating/pullout bed, cabin cooking center with stove, dining table, LED lighting, and a propane heater.  Outside, each hut has comfortable chairs on the porch, a large picnic table, and a fire-ring/cooking grill with extra seating.  And all this is just a short walk to the bath house and paviliion!  Our bathhouse is designed to bring you all of the comforts of home, with modern, comfortable features which include full size showers, plenty of counter space, professional ventilation, and regular maintenance by our partners at Offlake Rentals.  Additionally, we have outside water facilities and separate, deep sinks for washing dishes.

"Ole Briary"

The property is my home place. 115 acres of memories. Purchased decades ago by my grandfather as a place to 'get away' in solitude and as a hunting property. The old roadbed that follows the creek below the house used to be a state maintained road once upon a time. It is still a great hiking trail and is used by some to ride ATVs. We are not particularly fond of having our property tore up with people riding ATVs on the property so please respect that wish. The valley leads onto more private land and into Elsey Creek and meets up with another road bed at that point. It is near this intersection that the legend of 'Peddlers Glory' is of folklore. As legend has it a peddler was murdered while peddling his wares to the local inhabitants. He was buried near where he lost his life. They say that no grass, leaves, or snow would fall upon his grave. I have never found the location as it is long unmarked. The legend also tells that on a quiet night you can hear his pans and wares clanging up the road and if you call out to the peddler, "Peddler, why were you killed?" He will reply, "For no reason at all." Well, I have never yet had the courage to test the theory. I must say that area can be quite eerie indeed after the sun sets. A side story of this legend that was never written or made public I do know. On "Ole Briary" a strange car was one day parked at the trail-head to the old state road into Elsey. The car was there for a few days before my grandfather called the local law enforcement. He had originally thought it was just someone who hiked down into the hollow to fish for native brook trout. The car had Pennsylvania plates. A search down into 'Peddlers Glory' found the young man dead. Fast forward several more years. I was a young boy but still remember the car coming down the drive to Ole Briary. A car with Pennsylvania plates arrived. Turns out it was the family of the young man who had disappeared years before. They were busy asking my grandfather questions about the property and seeking his permission to walk through into Peddlers Glory. Of course he agreed. Turns out from that conversation that the young man had been reading various folklore including the story of the peddler. For whatever unknown reason he left home and drove down to West Virginia to find 'Peddlers Glory'. It was there that he died. The strangest part is that the family stated that there had been no cause of death other than just simply 'natural causes'. Strange but true... Many many years ago the road down Elsey Creek was a main road linking Terra Alta and Albright, WV. When I was a child you could still find the remains of the many house foundations that used to line the road. Long since abandoned to the forest there were many 'treasures' to explore as a youngster. Our property is bordered mainly by private land and one large acreage owned by the Kingwood Water Department. The old state roads that no longer exist are considered right of ways. Basically this is just the side of the creek bed from Route 7 down valley to Albright, WV. Learn more about this land:Ole Briary is simply raw land on which to camp. This is my homeplace and my father lives in the old farmhouse in the middle of the property. There are three springs on the land for water. This is for the pure nature enthusiast. The property leads to Elsey Creek which flows into the Cheat River. The Cheat is only 3 miles from the property and gives access to world class white water. To the north and west of the property lies many thousands of acres of uninhabited private and public lands. If you are just looking to escape and seclude yourself in a natural way while respecting nature, then you are welcome here.
