This was a great private site with easy access to their lake which had a nice walking trail as well as the perfect spot for our kids to catch ( and release) frogs, toads, tadpoles & more! We also enjoyed the variety of birds we saw, including some beautiful orioles. The site was immaculate, the hospitality from David& Marla is unmatched , and we loved enjoying all the local produce and meats from their delivered fresh business! It made packing for camp meals much easier. We would happily camp there again!

Lakeview Sunrise
Windstone Landing Farm is truly a gem tucked away in the rolling farmlands of northern PA! Our hosts couldn’t have been more inviting or accommodating. They exude joy for their work and shared their inspiring story of how they created this oasis. We were surrounded by beautiful meadows dotted with an array of colorful flowers, forest, and views in several directions of neighboring mountains and countryside. We heard sounds of bullfrogs, Canadian geese, and red winged blackbird on the large lake encircled with a walking trail and perfect spots for fishing. We saw stars galore from our large campsite set back from the farm happenings. Dave treated us to a tractor ride tour of his beautiful farm and he made our 6 year olds dream come true by getting us involved with the care of the turkeys and chickens. We ordered food such as chicken eggs and delicious strawberry jam for breakfast over the fire pit with wood provided. If only we could have stayed longer….
Do not hesitate to vacate your day to day to relax and enjoy all that this Hip Camp has too offer!

I loved staying at Lakeview Sunrise! If David and Marla could have changed the weather, I know they would’ve! We still had a great time despite the rain. Initially came up to visit World’s End (about an hour away), and I regret not allocating more time to visit the farm itself. That alone would make the trip worth it. I’ll be back!!

We had a wonderful two night stay at Lakeview Sunrise with our 3 kids and dog. The campsite was large and private, and had beautiful views. David and Marla were so welcoming, and took us on a tractor ride when we arrived (which thrilled our 5 year old son the most!). They also provided an insulated water cooler, which was far better than the one we had brought. We ordered food in advance, and enjoyed grilled chicken and apple butter from their farm. Bonus -- the site was less than an hour from Corning, and we enjoyed a side trip to the Corning Museum of Glass.

Where do I even start!?
From the moment we arrived at the farm, we were welcomed with warmth, kindness and hospitality. David and Marla were eager to help with anything we could possibly need during our stay and made sure to check in daily in case there was anything we forgot to pack or had questions about.
Despite staying on their property (both their home and livelihood) we also felt a sense of total privacy. The campsite was clean, beautiful, and quiet. We were staying quite near where they do work in the early morning and yet we were never bothered by any artificial noise whatsoever. Walking distance from our little “home away from home” was a gorgeous fishing lake where my dog could swim to his heart’s content and we could sit and watch the sunset, and around the lake were multiple trails through their farmland and the surrounding forest.
To make things even better, they are also part of a farm co-op! You can order online from a myriad of different local farms and eat beautiful produce, dairy, meat, poultry, and baked goods from humane and ethical farms in the area. You may even drive by some of them on your way to the farm as we did! There is something truly magical about knowing where your food comes from and feeling a sense of peace when you eat it.
From beginning to end, this was a trip of total perfection. We are so grateful for the memories we made at WindStone Landing and cannot wait to come back.

What a profoundly hospitable couple, and what a soul-nourishingly beautiful location! David & Marla have EXTRAORDINARY gifts of warmth & care, making us feel genuinely welcome the moment we arrived and providing us with stunningly thoughtful support, conveniences and accommodations for our visit. The food (we ordered meats, poultry, produce & home-canned goods from their farmers’ co-op website, and our order was ready for us when we arrived) was of the highest quality, and I actually teared up a bit when it registered in my mind that the ground turkey I was browning over our campfire had been raised and processed on the land I was standing on... I don’t think I have often been THAT connected to the sources of my food before! The beauty of Marla & David’s open & embracing personal energy is matched by the indescribable beauty of the land they have chosen to share with us campers. THANK YOU, Nowacoskis, for a superb, unforgettable experience!! We pray you blessings, sustenance & encouragement as you continue to “Deliver Fresh” from your loving hearts.

Lakeview Sunrise
This is one of the best camping trips I have been on!! David and Marla are the perfect hosts and their 100 acre farm was absolutely incredible. My favorite parts about the farm were the amazing wildflowers and being completely by ourselves. This was my kids first camping trip and I really couldn't find a campsite where ur not next to anyone else. Then I found Windstone Landing Farms. We are going back next year!!! David and Marla truly are incredible hosts. We forgot a few things and they came to the rescue. We had fresh eggs and bacon and chicken from the farm and it was sooo good. Thank you David and Marla!!!! We are so thankful you welcomed us and the opportunity to camp on your beautiful farm!

David and Marla were super thoughtful and kind! We were first time campers and so we didn't have everything we needed, but David and Marla fixed that by loaning a bunch of things to us. We had the best time at their campsite and would definitely recommend it to everyone! Hopefully, we'll be back soon to camp there again :)

The campsite at WindStone Landing Farms couldn't be more perfect! It was very peaceful and private, with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding nature. We spent three great days there with a group of friends, cooking delicious farm fresh food over the campfire and enjoying one another's company. Marla and Dave were perfect hosts, and not only was their own produce great, but they got an entire shopping list of items from surrounding farms to complete our meals! I've never eaten so well while sleeping in a tent. We will absolutely be back ASAP!!

Lakeview Sunrise
This was truly the best camping experience we ever had. We camp a few times a year and nothing could compare to the experience at Windstone Landing farm. Marla and Dave were so nice and accommodating. Before we arrived they reached out for a grocery list and had everything waiting for us. It was from their farm and other local farms they work with. The food was absolutely incredible and so fresh.
The first night we got there, Marla , Dave, and two local culinary students prepared a meal for us to enjoy. The food was delicious and again all from the farm and the local area. The dinner started with a cheese plate and bruschetta and progressed into a salad followed by a pork chop for dinner. The dessert was homemade ice cream, panna cotta, and strawberry shortcake. It was great to have the first night dinner provided so we could relax after setting up camp.
The rest of the trip we cooked ourselves and enjoyed the delicious ingredients Marla and Dave provided. We also got to enjoy the chickens roaming around and putting the turkeys to bed. Marla and Dave explained a lot of the farming processes and we learned a lot about their day to day life.
The campsite is secluded and you have a ton of space to play games and set up camp. We walked around the lake and the woods on the farm. We also went to Mt. Pisgah State Park which was about a 5 minute drive. We went to the pool there to cool off. You can also rent boats and hike at the park.
I could not recommend this experience more. The whole weekend was a euphoric experience and the whole group agreed we have to go back again. We also got to stock up on meat, eggs, and canned goods from the farm. Definitely book your next camping trip with Marla and Dave and I guarantee it will be an amazing experience!

Can I start with how amazing our host were? The most welcoming and warm people you'll meet, aside of their property being beyond beautiful they made the stay ten times better with how attentive they were. It was such an amazing experience to camp in a chicken farm, I loved seeing all these chickens roaming around free and I can't miss to say friendly as well. The campground offered everything I wanted, it was a big open meadow in the middle of the woods but with a spectacular lake view. In the night we set a fire and enjoyed all the sparkling fireflies in the distance just the right camp vibes I had been looking for. Everything there felt so fresh and enjoyable. If you're looking for good vibes I definitely recommend this place, I enjoyed every second of it and I'm looking forward to returning to Lake View Sunrise.

David and Marla are two of the kindest people we've met on our travels. We stopped by for one night on our way up to New York and were immediately welcomed by David and a few dozen of his free range chickens roaming his property. This place is absolutely picture perfect, the campsite is at the end of the lake on the opposite side of the main house, completely private on an open field surrounded by forest with a stunning view of the lake. Hungry? We didn't bring any food, instead we took full advantage of what the farm had to offer, just ask ahead of time :) Oh and don't forget to take home some of Marla's home made salsa. It's sooo good!
