The active farm lays along the lazy Marsh Creek not far from where it collides with the mighty Bald Eagle. Campsites are spaced out along the creek, in the fields, and on the mountain. Fish on any of the three streams, relax by the water or enjoy view of the cattle and wildlife. Bald Eagle State Park, State College, and Lock Heaven are a short distance away.

Shady Maple By The Creek
We went when the leaves still don’t have leaves. The weather lowest was 37 and it was all around a wonderful experience. The place had firewood already. But I purchased more from a local shop for 4 bucks a bundle.

Creekside Owl Cove
Amazing!
Amazing spot. Beautiful surrounding. Lots of trout. There are plenty of wood around for a fire. The con is you can hear the car when they pass by. Would definitely come back!

Creekside Owl Cove
Cozy Creekside in the Cold
Looking to avoid the campgrounds, for something more private and unique, my son, daughter and I really enjoyed our experience. Hesitant upon arrival, with the roadside/bridge entrance (Steep gravel drive). But seeing spacious yet private space bordered by the creek, road/bridge (with very occasional car or horse and buggy) and the old creek bed wall (~20' high) behind us, we knew it would be great. Room for vehicles and tent. We had 2-wheel drive and it was dry, so we were fine (otherwise you'd want 4WD to get out). The site was mowed grass with trees on 3 sides, then an open area closer to the bridge with grassy creek access. The red port-o-john is a ~4 min walk. It's November and we had beautiful days and cold nights. The water was clean and frigid, but my son did a polar bear plunge! Matt and Amy were good hosts. Her Dad even brought us a pile of wood. We'd camp here again.

Mountain Hike In
Had a great time at Matt’s walk in campsite. Was a uphill hike so be prepared for that and also do recommend if you have a 4x4 to bring it, my poor Prius barley made it half way. Overall great experience, nice private spot, Matt was super helpful.

Perfect night.
All four of Matt spots are great. Each one is different so you have some variety. They are all very well spaced out as well. The land is located right in the middle of state forest and right next to Bald Eagle state park. Matt is an excellent host and you can't go wrong with any of his spots on his lovely farm.
