Happy Heart Highlands and Alpacas

Great place to stop when in the area. We would definitely stay again.

Camping at the pond

Tent ·

The pond site is great and the entire property is perfect for camping. We were there for only one night but would come back again to enjoy the region, including all of the nearby historical and natural areas. The directions to the site, and the hosts instructions, were very clear and easy to follow.

Second year in a row!

Tent · With pets ·

We tent-camped at Peaceful Pond for the second year in a row with my two sons (14 and 11) and our dog, and it was exactly the reset we needed. We’re from right outside DC, so the quiet out here felt almost unreal. Aside from the occasional cow mooing or dog barking , it was just us and the farm. The best part was the simple stuff: morning coffee by the pond, hanging around the fire, making s’mores, and having the kind of deeper conversations you only get when everyone’s finally off their screens. It’s the kind of place that slows you down without trying. Highly recommend for anyone looking for calm, space, and an easy, comfortable spot to camp.

Private, beautiful, convenient

Tent · With pets ·

We stayed at the pond campsite and it was everything we wanted. I was hoping it was slightly further away from cars as you can hear the occasional sirens and the particularly loud cars, but most of the sounds of traffic were gone and replaced by farm sounds. We loved hearing the cows talk to each other. The host was kind and polite, their general store has candy, firewood, hamburgers, etc. And it's 24 hours, honor system, so if we ran out of wood for our fire at 11pm we could walk right over and cashapp her, although we didn't need that this time. Will probably do that next time to save car space from bringing our own firewood. And there will be a next time! Only 16 mins away from Harpers Ferry, the grass/dirt road was easy for my tiny car to handle (though may be different in the rain), the Porta potty at our site was far enough away that we couldn't smell it or hear each other use it (not that it smelled much anyway, very well maintained, even had toilet paper), but close enough that it was extremely convenient. You couldn't hear any other campers or those at the air BnB on the property. I really have no bad things to say about this place.

We had a great time tent camping by the pond! It was so peaceful and quiet and the sunsets were beautiful. My son really enjoyed doing a farm tour and getting to feed treats to the cows and alpacas - highly recommended!

Tent · With kids ·

Kimberly the host is so nice, attentive and accommodating! We liked the campsite and enjoyed looking at the beautiful farm/landscape during our stay. The kids had fun fishing in the pond and caught two fish. Kimberly took us on a tour to feed the cows and alpacas on her farm, which was a highlight! The only negative was there is a close by neighbor, who has a bunch of dogs (15+ dogs) and you can hear them barking throughout the day and night. This unfortunately took away from the peaceful ambiance of the farm and disrupted our sleep. I know this is out of Kimberly’s control, but hopefully in the future the township will step in to at least have the dogs be quiet during the night. If you are planning on staying at this campsite, I recommend bringing ear plugs.

Kimberly’s place was absolutely beautiful and centrally located! Unfortunately I didn’t get to take full advantage as I had plans the entire time we were there but would 100% recommend! Everything was easy to find and clean! Only thing is this one site was super uneven so took quite a bit of adjusting to try and get the camper but that’s not a huge deal for me! I’d definitely stay again if I was in the area!

Very nice place. Very quiet and secluded. Animals nearby make it interesting and relaxing to sit in your chair and just observe the animal life. Met the host Kim on Friday afternoon Very nice and helpful. We will go back in the future. We wanted a nice close trip to shakedown our new camper. Successful weekend trip.

This our 2nd stay here, with the 3rd already planned in 2 weeks. We are members of Big Cork Winery just down the road from here and enjoy going to their summer concerts. Camping here allows us to enjoy the concerts without the dread of the 1 hour drive home. I see us staying here quite often! The barn cats have definitely made themselves at home with us as we enjoy the camp fire at night. Mona has named them “Grey” and “Thing 1” and “Thing 2”. We’ll be back soon! -Pete & Mona-

Lovely spot for farm camping

Tent ·

The tent site next to the pond was very nice. 2 picnic tables and a port-a-potty were a nice addition. My 3 biggest issues were that the pond was smaller than I expected, I had no luck fishing, and the frogs surrounding the pond were LOUD at night. The host warned us about it ahead of time so I don’t blame her at all, I just wish I couldn’t hear them through my ear plugs. If you’re looking for a farm camping experience this is a great option - if you’re like me and want to do a considerable amount of fishing, I’d recommend something else.

We had a great time camping here. It was a nice, peaceful spot. It's a beautiful farm setting, it was clean and well maintained. Kim's tour of the cow pastures and alpacas is definitely worth it. There is wood, eggs, burgers, and steaks available for purchase, all at very reasonable prices. We would definitely come back if we are in the area.

We loved it here and would highly recommend Kim's hipcamp location and Alpaca/Cow tour to anyone. The pond stay was lovely (though be aware, you'll hear lots of animal creatures.) And it was close by to Harper's Ferry for tubing, Sherpherdstown for all the good eats, and Antietam for a bit of history. It was the perfect outdoor weekend. We'll be back!

Camping with the cows

35 ft Class C ·

Just came from a great stay at Kim’s farm. Cows to the left, alpacas to the right, couldn’t have picked a better location for the first two nights in our new rig. We enjoyed farm fresh eggs for breakfast and clean country air at night in a quiet setting. Having 50/30 amp service and city water available was a big plus. We were also fortunate to meet Kim and her husband and learn about the workings and history of the farm. We biked to a local state park and a country market and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We will certainly be back when we are in the area again.

We loved camping on Kimberly's farm. The site is well-maintained right next to a gorgeous pond, very peaceful. The farm buildings are visible in the distance. We pitched two tents and had two picnic tables for cooking and eating plus a wooden spool table for morning coffee by the fire. Every morning the Highland Cows would work their way into the field next to us. They seemed to like posing for drawings and photos. Kim welcomed us the first day in person and responded quickly to any questions via text. The eggs available in the refrigerator are delicious! We took 2 dozen home with us. Harper's Ferry is 15 minutes away by car. We were thrilled with our 4 day camping experience and look forward to returning with our grandchild!

Talking to the Alpacas

Our doggies loved meeting the Alpacas--these animals make such a wild clucking sound that had my puppies entranced. I didn't know till my visit there that my doggies spoke Alpaca! Kimberly pours her heart into this property. She is so gracious and accommodating. Her guests comfort and enjoyment at Happy Heart Highlands and Alpacas are her top priority. Be sure to arrive on a clear day to enjoy the starscape!

What can we say about our time at Kim’s place? Restful, relaxing, farm land as far as the eye can see, and oh, the animals! The Highlands are fluffy and sweet, the Angus cows are beautiful, and the Alpacas are adorable! Not to mention all the precious little calves! And peacocks too! We stayed at the Barnyard Bliss site and enjoyed every moment. We became friends with the barn cats who made for great company :) And the view of the cattle pastures was lovely. Kim is a fabulous host who goes above and beyond for her guests! We highly recommend her farm tour - the price is worth the adventure and the memories! One tip for guests - bring cash! Kim offers an array of items, including wood, eggs, charcoal and snacks at a reasonable price. Bu cell service could be iffy depending on your carrier, so the cash app may not work well. We had Verizon and struggled to get bars (although outside the issue with cash app, we didn’t mind and we enjoyed unplugging). No sewer was no issue. The KOA in Harpers Ferry was $20 to dump our tanks - easy breezy. Great camping spot. Don’t wait - book it! You won’t regret it. We will definitely be back!

Absolutely wonderful stay. Easy access, right next to the alpacas. Good electric/water access. Very nice little fridge with fresh eggs, farm raised beef, and some other goodies with a cash box. Kimberly even offers a farm tour where you get to feed the cows and alpacas. There are also some roaming cats that are very friendly. The location is very quiet and relaxing. Probably not appropriate for a very large rig, and the parking is dirt so it may get messy in heavy rain.

My friends and I made a trip down to Harper’s Ferry for Memorial Day weekend this year, the campsite and surrounding farm was beautiful! Kim is an extremely hospital host who genuinely cares for the farm and all of the animals. I would 100% recommend going on the farm tour as that was a highlight of our trip! I definitely will be coming back.
