Located just outside of Parker, PA and 25 minutes from I-80, our campsite is very accessible, yet still very remote. With 4 campsites on 75 acres, guests have ample privacy and space, with the freedom to roam this posted property that has no homes on it. Perched high above the Allegheny there are several spots to take in the wonderful views. There is also a waterfall with a 3’ deep pool below it. Great for splashing with kids or dogs, guests love exploring the creek bottom and making new discoveries. The more curious guests sometimes find the ruins of the original homestead, chimney and spring house that sit upstream. The property is teeming with wildlife. The sound of chirping birds will be the soundtrack of your visit, and often deer will be seen nosing along the outskirts of your site in the mornings and evenings. Turkey, bald eagles and even bear are occasionally spotted, so be prepared to secure your food at night. For those coming to disconnect, you have found the right place. But if cell service is needed, you will have enough to get texts out and depending what site you booked, calls and internet as well. For those who seek an electrical outlet AND and EV charger, we have a site for you! Within a 15 minute drive of your campsite you can find The North Country Trail, Rails to Trails Trailheads and Boat Launches on the Allegheny River, Groceries, dining and beer.

River Ridge campsite.
Really beautiful property! It was so quiet and relaxing but also not super far from town. I stayed here with a bunch of friends and we had a blast!

Amazing, majestic campsite!
This campsite was amazing! It’s extremely private, the view of the Fall leaves over the Allegheny was breath-taking, there are so many beautiful sights and sounds, and it’s such a great place to just relax and truly enjoy the wilds around you. The trail to the waterfall is also fantastic, and there’s a great little rock overhang down there where you can just sit and enjoy the water and the cool air. I would definitely recommend this site and will be back!

What a magnificent place!
We really enjoyed our stay on Chris’s land. It was beyond our expectations. The site is perfect. It is tucked away in the trees and private and peaceful. It is surrounded by trails to explore. We even found four hawk feathers on the trail above our site! The tent is clean and sturdy. It rained part of our stay and the tent stayed dry. It was large enough to also house our gear. The site also has a picnic table, fire ring and cooking grates. There’s a clean compostable outhouse nearby. There are a few other spots on the property- all spaced out to give each privacy. We never heard other campers while we were there. All the sites are beautiful and each have their own unique qualities. The land is absolutely gorgeous. And Chris is gracious enough to share it when you stay. There is the most beautiful waterfall at the bottom of the property that I cannot wait to wade in next summer! The view from the top ridge is breathtaking. We were lucky to stay at the peak of the autumn leaves changing and it was spectacular! Chris gave detailed information and directions. He was readily available to answer any questions we had. The property was easy to find per Chris’s directions and signage. We were fortunate to meet Chris and his son before we left. It made our stay even better and we look forward to visiting often. Please take care of Chris’s land so he and other hosts continue to share these invaluable places with all of us! Thanks again, Chris and family! We’ll be back!
