Secluded Riverside Camping

Jim and Deb run a wonderful working farm, and have an absolutely beautiful riverside campsite. On our drive there, we passed numerous high density riverside camping grounds. Theirs is the complete opposite - secluded and peaceful. They have a wonderful market selling eggs, cheese, beef, chicken, pork, and craft beers - as well as a wide assortment of hand crafted items. Of course we forgot our firewood, kindling, and fire stick. No worries though - Jim took care of us. Convenient to Ricketts Glen.

Charming farm oasis

Tent camping on Forks Farm was a delight! Our group had two tents - this site could easily accommodate more. We fished and swam in the creek, roasted kebabs over the well appointed fire pit (there are grates and a poker), and bought bacon and kombucha from the farm store. Deb showed us the chickens and duckling in the barn and Jim walked us through how he trains the piglets for their transition to the woods. The weather was perfect and there were few bugs. Hoping to return at some point with a larger group!

Camping by the steam

My wife and I who are novice campers stayed one night at Forks Farm. It was much much better than I perhaps expected it to be. Our host was friendly and very helpful and oriented us to the campground and what the farm had to offer. In addition to our kindly host, the campsite and farm were both quaint and pituresque at the same time! The experience could not have been better...and it was so affordable. Forks Farm was effortless camping in a lovely setting, especially nice if you are looking to just spend time in a relaxed and idylic atmosphere.

Camping on the water’s edge

Camping on Deb and Jim’s farm was a wonderful experience for my entire family! We had such a pleasant and peaceful stay tenting right next to the creek’s edge. Deb and Jim were very gracious hosts and took the time to show us around their property and answer all our questions. We were able to see the chickens, ducks, roosters, pigs, cows, and their friendly dog Poppy. The market is so cute and we were able to get local meats, cheeses, and beers to eat during our stay. Perfect place to get away for a couple of days. Good fishing as well! Very fun time and we will be sure to return in the future!

Very private and beautiful campsite along the water, which we floated in for quite some time to stay cool. We would definitely return.
