Located just outside of Parker, PA and 25 minutes from I-80, our campsite is very accessible, yet still very remote. With 4 campsites on 75 acres, guests have ample privacy and space, with the freedom to roam this posted property that has no homes on it. Perched high above the Allegheny there are several spots to take in the wonderful views. There is also a waterfall with a 3’ deep pool below it. Great for splashing with kids or dogs, guests love exploring the creek bottom and making new discoveries. The more curious guests sometimes find the ruins of the original homestead, chimney and spring house that sit upstream. The property is teeming with wildlife. Birds and tree frogs will be the soundtrack of your visit, and often deer will be seen nosing along the outskirts of your site in the mornings and evenings. Turkey, bald eagles and even bear are occasionally spotted, so be prepared to secure your food and trash at night. For those coming to disconnect, you have found the right place. But if cell service is needed, you will have enough to get texts out and depending what site you booked, calls and internet as well. For those who seek an electrical outlet AND and EV charger, we have a site for you! We also have a site with a large canvas tent already set up for your convenience. Within a 15 minute drive of your campsite you can find The North Country Trail, Rails to Trails Trailheads and Boat Launches on the Allegheny River, Groceries, dining and beer.

Owner’s Site, Rarely Open to Guests

Best place we have camped so far. Felt like we had all the land to ourselves. Private - ideal surrounded by woods and amazing views. From sunsets to fireflies, this was wonderful. We did some low key hiking on the property. Found the waterfalls, deer and turkey. Enjoyed Foxburg for biking and hanging out on a Sunday afternoon at winery and restaurants. This is 100% a go to that we will plan to return!

River Ridge

Peaceful, quiet camp!

The view was awesome as promised! The site was very private and quiet. You will want a 4WD with decent clearance to get to it. The property has plenty of trails to explore, and we were pleased to discover the creek has a lovely swimming hole with a little waterfall. I definitely recommend!

Pine Canopy Site w/ Canvas Tent!

This place is awesome! This is my second time staying here, and it wont be the last. It's very secluded and private. Firewood for sale on site is very convenient, especially for if you run out lol. Outhouses are very well kept, as well as the rest of the roads and trails. The only complaint that you may have is other campers ripping quads up and down the main road, but that isn't the owners fault, just people being inconsiderate.

Travelers campsite with EV charger!

It was very nice to have the convenience of an EV charger during our travels, and the waterfalls and river was a very short ways away, we were able to hear it at our site and walk to it easily, very beautiful!

Pine Canopy Site w/ Canvas Tent!

Perfect first family camp trip!

We stayed at the Pine Canopy location with our two young kids and dog and it was PERFECT! We’ve never camped with the kids before and wanted to give them a fun experience - they definitely had a memorable one! We all slept in the canvas tent which was perfect - and loved the waterfall and walking in the creek. I appreciated having wood for sale on the property too. It really was one for the memory books. Thank you!
