I've had the property for 10 years. It's located in a more rugged section of Pennsylvania. Over time I've been planting fruit trees and bushes. Can't quite call it an orchard yet but someday! Come enjoy camping, hiking, hunting, boating, fishing, swimming and much more at this site nestled amongst game lands #287 and Allegheny river. 2000 acres of game land to explore, half mile from the Erie to Pittsburgh bike trails. Stay for hunting season or launch your boat onto the Allegheny River. 1 mile from scrubgrass ohv Park so bring your buggy or just enjoy the races.

We had a great stay at Richard's (Rick) campsite! Rick met us and showed the way to our site while also transporting a few of our belongings on his four-wheeler. Rick was kind and available to answer all our questions. The location was quiet and next to a little stream, and we enjoyed s'mores by the fire before going to bed. We highly recommend staying here!

Didn’t spend the night because of weather and crabby teenager - but it’s a great location and site. We will be back.

The trail leading to the site was well groomed. There was an outhouse tent set up and some wood for us to burn.

Our wonderful stay!
We had a wonderful time staying at the RV and one night in the tent. Richard and Carla were extremely helpful throughout the stay and very accommodating. They recommend some great hikes in the area and we were able to go kayaking as well with the company OARS (highly recommend). They let us borrow their bikes to take a ride by the river as well. The roads are pretty steep and windy in the area, but there’s a lot of natural beauty worth experiencing! Great place for people who love the outdoors.

Had a great time staying at Richards campground. It was very peaceful and relaxing. The area was well maintained and the path to the sites was enjoyable. Richard met us with a map of local spots and was very easy to deal with and responsive to any questions we had. Overall a great time that I would recommend to others.

What are you waiting for.
I cannot say enough good things about Rick and his family. They are thoughtful hosts, who have made sure that everything is set for a relaxing, comfortable stay, with the most incredibly peaceful surroundings. The Winnebago had everything needed for my stay, and the outside area was great for a nighttime fire, and what they're doing with the lush property is very exciting. It is so quiet, I was able to perform my yoga and meditation practices outside while staring at the gorgeous trees and/or stars. We got to visit a bit, and I can only reiterate that they are wonderfully warm, welcoming, and accommodating hosts, who understand the life of travelers, being avid explorers themselves. I cannot recommend this stay highly enough, and look forward to visiting again in the future.

A+ Stay - Swank Valley Camper
Honored to be the first reviewer for this A+ stay! Rich and fam have set up quite the awesome stay - can't recommend enough. The camper is spotless and extremely awesome - hot water, shower, toilet, power, AC if you need it, stove, coffee maker. Bed is a very comfy foam mat - if you are tall your feet might hang off the end, but that's camper life I suppose - I slept like a rock. Rich built a firepit w chairs and cool table to sit at outside, overlooking a magnificent little valley, with some very low level solar lights so you don't stumble off the side. At night there was thousands of fireflies all over. Rich and fam are great stewards of their land and have some REALLY cool ideas coming up to make the stay even better. They were happy to show and share the berries and veggies they are growing. The camper is about 30' from the side of the house, but the proximity didn't feel intrusive at all - no light, no sound. The plot is on the side of a dirt road that leads down to some great state game land with wonderful hiking - there was very minimal traffic and it was very slow and not intrusive when anyone drove by - noone went by after dark. There's two walk-in tent sites down in the valley but I wouldn't of even known they were there if Rich hadn't told me - buried in the woods and the entry path is down the street. I had a really great relaxing and just cool stay here and am so happy I took a chance on a new place. Its a great place to hang out, wander around, appreciate the surroundings and quiet. Rich also gave me a map w locals highlights that was really cool. Can't recommend enough! Great stay, great place, great people. Will only get better and better. Thank you!

Richard is a great host and we enjoyed staying at his place while biking the Armstrong Trail. The campsite was quiet and secluded and we had everything we needed to be comfortable.

A Camping and River Getaway!
Richard and Carla were wonderful hosts! Arriving to a dozen eggs and firewood was a great perk that we happily took advantage of. They were incredibly hospitable and great with directions and information of the area and also happily offered their kayaks and a drive down to the river! Their property and the campsite sits right on the edge of the hillside with a great view from the campfire of the game lands, the wildlife in the area and the local cows. We were minutes away from fishing spots along the Allegheny River and the Mahoning Creek. We especially enjoyed easy access to the Armstrong trail and Greys Eddy. We were happy to be Rick and Carla's first campers and highly recommend their place! They already have a lot to offer and in getting the chance to chat with them they have a lot in store for their future campers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
