We loved staying at Craig’s river property. The back porch was a cool hangout spot, and the room and wash room were comfortable and clean. The house was easy to access and Craig was great at communicating with us.
Craig is a cool guy! He and I took to the river and enjoyed a fun kayak trip the next morning while my wife and baby slept in. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the pizza ovens and watch him work the blacksmith forge. I could easily imagine spending a few days on this site and paddling and hiking in the surrounding area, which has great access to trails and waterways. Stay with Craig!

We had such a wonderful stay at Craig’s place! The space is so thoughtfully designed for a very comfortable stay with everything you need and Craig was very helpful whenever we needed him! The property is beautiful and we really enjoyed spending time in the creek. The perfect place to disconnect!

An amazing spot and Craig was an amazing host! The smallmouth bite was solid, the cooking accomodations were spot on, and Craig made sure we had everything we needed along the way. Made for an amazing Father's Day weekend. We hope to make this spot an annual destination.

Craig was a fabulous host! His little slice of paradise is so relaxing and there’s plenty to explore in the area. We had a great time exploring trails and canoeing with Craig’s help and expertise. He even had a fire going for us upon our return. It was really a treat!

I love spending time at Craig's property. This was my second visit and somehow it was better than the first trip which was amazing. We weren't able to paddle bc the creek was down, and it wasn't impactful to our fun at all. Just book it! And if you can check out the nearby dirt race track BAPS, fun for kids and adults alike.

This was my second time at Craig’s space and it did not disappoint! Great eating, beautiful scenes and amenities galore. Me and four other friends set up a tent down by creek and woke up to some of the most beautiful sunrises I’ve seen in a while. If you’re into birding, we heard and saw all kinds of amazing feathered friends.
Our dogs explored every inch of the property and we got a chance to kayak pretty far down the Conewago creek. Craig was a master host, incredibly responsive but gave us plenty of room to feel like the space was our own.
I can’t recommend this spot enough!

This was our second stay on Craig's little slice of Heaven and it was just as lovely as the first go round. This trip we saw wild turkeys, deer, countless hummingbirds, toads, and more. Our dog, Thor, had a ball running around off leash. Highly recommend staying here!

Wonderful location - scenic creek running through the property that's great for wading, fishing, or kayaking/canoeing (depending on water level - it was a bit low when we visited in late August). The property is very well kept, well stocked, and Craig was welcoming, helpful, and friendly. We had a great location for our tent near the creek, and played some horseshoes he had set up there. The fire ring was in a nice graveled area, so no worried about rogue sparks. Overall, very enjoyable!

We had an amazing time at Craig's place - especially our dog Baxter, who could not have been happier! We loved trying out recipes in the clay oven and having direct access to the creek. Craig is an wonderful host and went above and beyond to make sure we had an excellent stay. Hope to be back again soon!

One of the best Hipcamp stays we’ve had! The host, Craig, went above and beyond—building fires, keeping our dishes clean, and even shuttling us up the creek for a dreamy kayak trip. The outdoor kitchen was amazing, with a flat-top grill, one-burner electric stove, firepit, and all the pots, pans, and dishes we needed. The host's craftsmanship shows in everything—pizza ovens, sauna, and log cabin, all built by hand. There’s a queen bed inside the bedroom, great deal of outdoor space enough for our gazebo, hammocks, and tent. We enjoyed fresh herbs from the garden, magical creek bends on a leisurely kayak ride (Craig provided us the kayaks and life jackets), birdwatching, and saw big fish jumping. Walmart is only 15 minutes away by car for supplies. Some morning truck noise from the bridge and low creek water didn’t take away from how special this place was for us!

Craig’s place is absolutely wonderful! Every detail is thoughtfully and beautifully considered, even the book collection. It’s very peaceful; the sounds of the birds, crickets, stream make it a wonderful spot to relax and enjoy nature. I hope to be back soon!

I selfishly don't want to tell y'all how great this place is. I can't speak highly enough of Craig, he will meet you where you're at in involvement (be as hands off or on as you require). He's kind, patient, and informed. The location was perfect but Craig made it a 6 star glamping experience. Craig has put a lot of time into maintaining the property and curating the vibe, and it shows. Showering in the outdoor shower during a rain shower should be on everyone's bucket list; and we didn't even get to enjoy the sauna (because July). Craig's creek shuttle is ideal for low maintenance, peak enjoyment. Craig will even take a video of you paddling for you. If you are burnt out on the city a weekend at Craig's will bring you back to life.

Craig is the prefect host. If you’re looking for paddling fun this is the place to visit. Craig offers a ride either up or down stream. We even recommend his place for river tubes because he has a lazy river right off this property. We love water adventures and our dog loved being off leash the entire time. The outdoor kitchen is amazing. We highly recommend this place and will be back very soon.

Craig, the host, was incredible. As others have said, he’s truly the consummate host. He greeted us warmly on day one, then gave us all the privacy we needed while still being super attentive—setting up fires when we asked and even swapping out our dishes and flatware so we could enjoy fresh meals. He was thoughtful, generous, and made the place feel really safe and welcoming.
If you have a dog reactive dog like we do, this is the place to be! We loved how spacious the property was. There was plenty of room for our pup Disco to run freely off-leash, which was such a joy to watch. It made the whole experience feel even more special.
It rained most of the time we stayed (which was of course out of everybody’s control), and Craig was worried we wouldn’t have a good time and was even willing to work with us to reschedule. We needed up staying and are so happy we did. This spot is close to a couple great little towns with good thrifting, food and dessert!
We can’t wait to come back!

This Hipcamp is a literal slice of heaven! It’s very cozily nestled between a hillside and a creek with a huge yard for dogs - or littles - to run around. The lodgings are very comfortable, clean, and superbly maintained (bedroom, bathroom, outdoor kitchen and shower). The amenities are plentiful! Our favs were the campfire ring, horseshoe lawn game, outdoor pizza oven, wifi, AND fact that our goodest boi could enjoy the property off leash. It was a bit too cold for river hanging or paddling during our stay, but the creek access was simple. The host, Craig, was kind, friendly, anticipated our every need. He was unobtrusive and good at reading his audience (we’re social and really enjoyed chatting with him to learn more about his gorgeous land and many talents!). You will love your stay here. We can’t wait to go back!

Craig was the consummate host! He set up a fire and the wood-burning sauna each evening!! He suggested canoeing on the creek which was super calm and easy. My dog loved the spot and we were able to take a nice walk right from the property. The outdoor shower was nice and hot, the bathroom clean and the bedroom was so cozy at the end of the day. Craig really did go above and beyond to make our stay special- he was very generous with his time and expertise when needed. Thanks Craig! 10/10 would recommend

Craig was the consummate host! His place is beautiful, directly on the creek. So many amenities!! I enjoyed the fire pit, the Wood-Fired sauna and the outdoor (hot) shower. The bedroom was super cozy and zen- soft blankets and comfy mattress. I would 10/10 recommend💚

We loved our stay on Craig's land—the peace, the tranquility, the attention to detail. I have particular kids, and they loved his space. If you sleep in the guest room or pitch a tent next to the creek, you will not be disappointed. I recommend you bring a fishing pole or take to the water in a canoe or kayak. We will be back.

This "glamp" experience was a nice, last minute surprise alongside a beautiful creek.
Much thought and care, by Craig, has been put into the space to make it a step above the usual glamping.
Every aspect was clean and all provisions available.
He was kind, friendly and helpful in a manner one would expect in a lodge.
We took full advantage of all the amenities - the sauna, the outdoor shower, firepit area, unique and creative lighting (non-bug attracting bulbs) and the brick oven to make pizzas.
The outdoor kitchen is amazing.
The environment was peaceful.
For us, the best part was the freedom to canoe the calm, sleepy creek -
what a beautiful treat! Wildlife and tranquility.
Everything we hoped when it was found.
As a note: don't let the nearby drive to reach his property give you cause for alarm (as it did us). Once you are there - the downstairs space and the grounds are simple, but beautiful.

Craig’s place is peaceful, unique, and comfortable. There is plenty to do if you’re looking for a little adventure and there are all the comforts of home if you just want to relax in some really cool surroundings. Craig is friendly and easy to talk to; he will make sure you have everything you need but will also give you plenty of privacy.

The property is beautiful, right on a tranquil river/creek with wonderful trees and shade, and lots of flat ground for tents, lots of mature trees and felt secluded and private.
The real magic of this site is in the amazing work that Craig has put into the property. The fire pit/gravel patio, outdoor bar, bathroom, bedroom, outdoor kitchen and shower... All are full of beautiful, whimsical hand-built details--from the windowsills, to metal paper towels holders, drawer-pulls, fire pokers, decorations, and more. Craig is a true jack-of-all-trades who built everything on this property over decades, and his loving care really shines through in all the details. It's a wonderful place to spend a few nights grilling and catching up with friends! The stars were plentiful at night, and the air was nice and cool by the river and in the shade.
Each morning the hummingbird and bird feeders were full of visitors--I feel like the care it goes into maintaining just that aspect of the property (not to mention the thriving vegetable garden from which Craig gifted us tomatoes, peppers, and onions!) says so much about the kind of dedication and loving care that has been put everywhere here.
The sauna was amazing, the river was calm and easy to paddle up a good ways and then float back down, the Blackstone and pizza oven well-maintained and a joy to cook with. Craig provided firewood, was around for questions and help-- friendly and wonderful to our diverse group of city folk!

Craig was a phenomenal host.
The space and land surrounding is extremely peaceful and beautiful.
My 3 YO son and I had a wonderful time hanging out for a father/son weekend.
The living space has everything you need. The kitchen is wonderfully equipped.
I brought a dough ball and made some wood fired pizza in the outdoor oven.
Craig was very communicative leading up to our trip and answered any questions I had.
He had the paddle boat set up for us by the river, and even had a life vest for my son.
My son and I did some fishing by the river. We picked some peaches from the peach tree.
There was plenty of fire wood for the fire pit and we roasted our peaches and apples there at night.
The outdoor shower had plenty of hot water in the morning.
The bedroom was nice and cool with the AC unit and ceiling fan. Room was spacious and very comfortable bed.
Overall this was a fantastic place and I can’t speak highly enough of Craig our host.
You will not be disappointed booking this place for your next trip.
