Paul and Vallerie is a Star Host

Star Hosts are highly rated, responsive, and committed to providing incredible experiences.

We have 104 acres along the Allegheny river that we are willing to share with people who enjoy the outdoors. My husband and I, have been living here for twenty years and just enjoy the beauty this valley has to offer. We see bald eagles everyday, and every once in while some otters can be seen playing in the river. Black Fox Island is visible downstream and provides a pool in the river that is a mile long. A person can easily paddle upstream; when the river is at normal summer levels. Over 100 years ago, this was an industrial area with railroads, deep mines, strip mines, and gristmills. Some remnants of those times are still visible. Paddling, biking, walking, fishing and swimming are some of the activities to do here, but doing nothing and watching the river go by seems to be the most popular.Come drive or paddle to our serene campsites along the Allegheny River. Enjoy one of our two spacious campsites, including river access for kayaks, canoeing, fishing, or swimming. This is a great stop-over destination if you are coming by canoe or kayak (mile marker 78). Take a hike or bring your bicycles to ride on country roads or the local bike trails (within a ½ hour drive). We have fantastic sunsets from our small beach area, which can be used for sunbathing or stargazing. Bring your tent and camping gear to enjoy nature; bald eagles, deer, beavers, turtles, etc. Each site is designed for 1-6 people and 1-2 average size tents. Picnic tables, fire rings, and a shared port-a-potty (maintained regularly) are included. No electric or garbage available at this time -take out what you take in. Firewood and ice are available for fee. Some of the outdoor attractions in the area include the Allegheny Valley Bike Trail, the Armstrong Bike Trail, the Red Bank Creek Bike Trail, the Rt 66 Bike Trail, Allegheny National Forest, Cook Forest State Park, and Oil Creek State Park. Nearby towns: Parker (9.5 mile) Bike path access, and a boat launch. Foxburg (12 mile) Bike path access. East Brady (13 mile) Bike path access, and a boat launch.

Scenic beauty at Sunset Valley

Our second time back at Sunset Valley with Paul and Vallerie and just as expected we had an absolute blast!!! Summertime on some of the most beautiful property in the entire area! Paul and Vallerie do an amazing job maintaining their own little slice of heaven and have spent years turning it into one of the most beautiful spots on the Allegheny River. It’s hard to understand the significance of their daily love and labor in this place until you show up and see it for yourself! Whether your looking for a private place to set your tent or hammock up or your looking for a wonderful time swimming, tubing, hiking, or just genuinely want a lazy retreat you can find it all here. Even got to see the river otters and eagles this time!!! Can not wait to come back again!!!

Great place to camp!

We really enjoyed our stay at Paul and Vallerie’s land. Vallerie met us when we got there and was so friendly and helpful. She also checked in a few times during our stay to make sure we had what we needed. The bank to the River by the camp site is a steep drop - farther than some of the pictures can show. We didn’t have issues with this, but it’s a good thing to keep in mind if you have small children like we do. There is plenty of space to pitch your tent and spread out. We were grateful for our 10x10 canopy for shade over the picnic table in the hot July morning sun. Lots of shade trees other places though. We had a choice between 2 places with a picnic table and fire ring - one close to the river and one back farther. The rocky beach area by the dock was a great place to swim, especially with young children - bring footwear, it’s rocky like the pictures. If you need a place to get away and breathe your own air, book your time here!

Perfect night

My friends and I wanted a fun and relaxing girls camping trip. Sunset Valley checked all the boxes. Paul and Valerie were the perfect hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure our trip was wonderful. The views were spectacular! Our tents and our fire pit overlooked the Allegheny River. We had a ton of space and the ground was nice and level. The area was private and quiet. We were sad to leave but can not wait to visit again soon!

Relaxing private getaway

Sunset valley is a beautiful getaway spot! My wife and I had an amazing week! The campsite is very spacious and very well maintained. The porta- potty is also very clean. The views from the site are so beautiful. There are some homes across the river but it still feels very remote and private. The site had easy access to the river to put in our kayaks. We also took advantage of a local boat ramp in the village of Foxburg, which is just a short drive away. We were able to enjoy a 7 mile (approximately) float down river directly to the campsite, which was so relaxing and provided stunning scenery! We also felt very comfortable leaving are things at the site while on our float down river, the locals are so kind and also respect your privacy!! The fishing is also pretty good!! The hosts, Paul and Valerie are so sweet and so kind, they made us feel very welcomed. They are just a text away if you need anything and very helpful. Ice and firewood were also available on site. We had a couple cold nights and Valerie was so sweet she brought down one of her own hoodies for my wife to borrow for the week. The morning we left our vehicle battery was dead so I sent Paul a text and he was down to give us a jump in a matter of minutes. The sunsets are so beautiful and we were so blessed one night during sunset to be serenaded with Paul's musical talents! Honestly can't say enough great things about both of them! They helped make this trip very memorable! We cant wait to come back!!!

Romantic river getaway

Sunset valley is a beautiful getaway spot! My wife and I had an amazing week. The campsite is very spacious and well maintained. The porta potty was also very clean. Even though there are some homes across the river it still feels very remote and private. There is easy access on the site for putting in kayaks. We were also able to put our kayaks in about 7 miles up river at a local boat ramp (village of foxburg). Took about 4 hours to float directly back to our campsite, it was absolutely gorgeous! So many beautiful views! Also felt very comfortable leaving all our belongings at the site during our float down river. The fishing is pretty decent also!! The host Paul and Valerie are so sweet and kind, made us feel so comfortable and welcomed!! Paul is just a text away if you need anything (ice and firewood are available on site for purchase, very convenient). We had a couple very chilly nights and Valerie was so sweet she brought my wife down one of her hoodies. Our vehicle wouldn't start the day we left so I sent Paul a text and he came down just a few minutes later to give us a jump! Honestly can't say enough great things about them! The sunsets are beautiful and even one night we were blessed to be serenaded by Pauls great musical talents. The locals are also just as kind and respectful of your privacy! Would highly recommend this site! Thank you Paul and Valerie we had a memorable week and can't wait to schedule our next visit!!! FYI the pictures don't do it justice!!!

Sunset Valley

Peaceful camp site with swim spot

We loved our stay at Sunset Valley! Paul and Vallerie were super welcoming and helpful. There’s plenty of space for multiple tents to all have a river view, lots of shade, and a short walk to the rock beach and dock. Our favorite part was jumping off the dock, pretty strong current so you have to be a decent swimmer!
