All to yourself

100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.

This is a campsite that has picturesque view of surrounding farmland and of Peek-n-Peak. Located conveniently off of Rt426 with a slight drive along a field to reach the destination. Private and out of the way. Plenty of wildlife (family of fox and usually mamma deer and her babies, can normally be seen doing what animals do. Close to Peek-n-Peak and Findley Lake and its many amenities. Has fantastic cell reception so remote working is an absolute possibility if longer stays are wanted. This is a little campsite on top of a hillside besides, you guessed it, a big oak. This is on a working hay farm, so depending on when you arrive you might be able to see hay being harvested. Again, this a newer campsite so improvements will be made based on demand. New and hopefully "easier to get to campsite" entrance: To enter the property, you will use a field entrance right off Harrington Hill Road (coming from the west it will be on your left-hand side). Entrance is directly across from the wooded area where the campsite is at and you will be going through an active hay field to reach it, but the path should be defined enough in the field that you can follow the tracks from previous cars.This campsite that has picturesque view of surrounding farmland and of Peek-n-Peak.

This campsite offers an exceptional escape into nature, with glowing reviews highlighting its stunning views and peaceful ambiance. Campers appreciate the solitude of the single site, where they can enjoy breathtaking sunsets, stargazing, and sightings of local wildlife. The site, located atop a hill, provides a great spot for both relaxation and adventure, but a 4-wheel drive is recommended for easier access, especially in wet conditions. The host, Kevin, is frequently mentioned for his excellent communication and helpfulness, ensuring guests have a smooth and enjoyable camping experience.

Hilltop gorgeous valley view

16 ft truck camper · With kids

The campsite was incredible! The view from this hilltop was spectacular with views of grazing deer, farms and the distant views of the ski resort. The site is surrounded by numerous apple trees. The fact that it is a single site guaranteed solitude. After a wonderful fireside view of the valley, we woke to see the mist shrouded hills as the sun rose behind our site. We even saw an eagle flying below us through the valley.

Private and peaceful site

Great private site close to Findley lake and Erie wine country! Definitely will need 4th especially if it’s recently rained to get to the site as you have to drive through a field up a large hill to get there. Picnic table and firepit provided. Very peaceful. We will definitely return!

We had an amazing stay at Big Oak Hill. The sunset alone was one for the books—absolutely unforgettable and worth the trip by itself. Kevin was a fantastic host, quick to respond and super helpful with any questions we had along the way. Everything about the experience was smooth, relaxing, and exactly what we were hoping for. We’d definitely come back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great getaway.

I loved Kevin’s campsite and the peace and quiet. We were pleasantly surprised to find multiple apple trees and apples on the ground of the property. Once we determined the right spot to set up camp we had no issues at all with anything hitting our tent. The view was beautiful, a very short drive into town, and the available wood to make a fire in the fire pit was perfect. Having a trash can on site was a big plus not having to take our trash with us when we left! We didn’t see any wildlife, but it could have been the time of year we visited. I wouldn’t hesitate booking this site again. Kevin was responsive and it’s apparent that he takes care of the site.

The Big Oak Hill

Tent

Big Oak Hill is as advertised!! The views were incredible during the day and the stars put on a show at night. We had deer, groundhogs, hawks and an eagle around our camp. There is a large fireplace with some wood. It is just a four minute drive to Findley lake for fishing, shopping and dining. The only thing the site could use is a picnic table. Thank you Kevin for allowing us to stay on this beautiful piece of land. The Gipsons

Keeping this one a secret 😁

Tent

This is exactly the kind of spot I've been looking for. I enjoyed privacy but still felt like I had people nearby for safety if needed. The view was spectacular and being surrounded by nature is exactly what I was looking for. This site was perfect for my car and tent. It was level and I had room for both my car, tent and canopy and still be able to sleep level in my car. I was blessed with perfect weather and was even able to sleep in my hammock for a night.

Big Oak Hill with expansive views

18 ft campervan

Kevin’s place is picturesque farmland and far off woods. I love that we were the only campers there. It is private and the views are wide and beautiful. We were able to catch a couple stunning sunsets. The skies are clear and deep with stars. In the morning the sun lights up the field below. I recorded over 25 species of birds on the Merlin app. An eagle visited twice; I think that it hunts from the big Oak. I spied a coyote in a far off field looking for mice. We also saw turkeys and mama deer with their babies. The place is easy to find but not easy to arrive at after lots of rain. We needed some assistance upon arrival then settled into the level patch at the site. After, we lowered the pressure in our tires and made it with no help. It was so worth the struggle. We have a rear wheel drive Promaster so we expect challenges. Planned to split our days between Presque Isle, Findley Lake and Chautauqua, but in the end, spent all the time at Presque Isle since it is so beautiful. Kevin and Nick could not have been nicer. They are thoughtful and wanted to be sure that we enjoyed our trip; we did! Hopefully we will return again this year. Want to get some star pictures for sure.

It is a beautiful spot on the top of a hill with an excellent sunset view. There were thousands of fireflies in late June. One thing to consider is there is no road to the campsite. When I went, it had been raining previous days and the ground was soggy; my hybrid minivan (an heavy vehicle) actually couldn’t made the drive. Kevin will drive stuff up to the campsite if needed.

Great for car and hammock camping!

16 ft car

Excellent location for overlanding or car camping, hammock camping and tent camping. The site was secluded, peaceful and quiet. There’s a level spot for tents or cars and plenty of trees around for hammock camping. The fire circle was perfectly sized and well maintained. The site is a semi-circle with trees all around but a clear view to the sky for star gazing. The onsite trash can and optional dry firewood was nice. The trail to the site off the main road was a little overgrown and 4wd is nice but might not be necessary, but don’t expect your Miata to drive up the trail. Overall, fantastic spot and I can’t wait to come back!
