Dennis Alan City Boy Homesteader here, I just moved from the NYC area to build an off grid homestead on a bare 28 acres in central PA surrounded by Amish farms. The land is still pretty much raw and beautiful with many different spots on the property to pitch a tent for the night or week! From pitching a tent on an open pasture, surrounded by trees alone, next to a creek, or even in an old rock quarry. That's right there are two old rock quarries that you could take advantage of. The small on has it's own little cave at the base and the larger one has a stage made of rocks to facilitate shows there. Our neighbor is the famous Woodward Cave and just down the road is one of the top 5 trout fishing spots in the northeast, Coburn PA. A town over, at the only light around, is Millheim, PA where the few businesses are a cool art gallery, farm to table restaurant/ brew pub, IngleBean (.com) Coffee House (that I own), local winery, 2 wine stores and a local meat market! wow great place to be on a Saturday afternoon. Most weekends in the summer will have some kind of fair or festival going on so please check in with me with any questions.

We loved our little get away into the country! Dennis runs a really cool cafe in town too that we checked out. The site was clean but you can tell it’s been well enjoyed, which is fine; we didn’t book a five star hotel! We would totally go back. The surrounding area has other campsites which we didn’t know about but everyone is super respectful and keeps themselves to themselves. Tons to do around the area and really just let you disconnect from the busy city life! Also our dog loved it!!
My friends and I had an amazing camping experience here! The location was beautiful. Dennis even had the fire started for us when we arrived a little late in the evening. He was very responsive to all my questions leading up to arrival.
We had a great stay at Dennis’ property. We had a bit of trouble finding the spot at first and there is limited reception in the area, but once we got it sorted out everything was fantastic. The glamping tent was perfect for a long weekend in nature and there were plenty of trails and rivers to explore nearby.
Myself, husband and son had a great time. Dennis Alan Homestead was a truly unique camping experience. The metal canvas tent on a raised wooden deck came complete with a comfy queen bunk bed. The site looked out upon an open field where we would wave to neighbors on horse and buggy passing through in the distance. Dennis was friendly and accommodating. His coffee shop in town was a cool point of interest that we hit on our way home. My family is already planning a return stay in the spring!
A picturesque campsite with a lovely view of the valley on Dennis’ property. The site is tucked away from the others on the property giving adequate privacy. It was a cold weekend and the tent blunted any additional windchill. There is a well built fire pit with plenty of firewood within walking distance, a lifesaver when temperatures dropped below 35. Dennis was friendly and answered all questions quickly before the trip. We checked out his coffee shop, Inglebean, in the next town over and went every morning of our trip. Would highly recommend visiting at least once during your stay.
We had a great camping experience at BestVista! We stayed at site #1 and the tanquility and peace of this location. We had a van and two tents on the platform. Great level lot with awesome views of Amish working farms. Purchased burgers and cheese from local farms from Dennis. Great expereience!
The site was really nice, relaxed with fire pit ready and large wooden platform for use. We took our 24ft travel trailer and although it was a tight fit getting in and out, Dennis was great and helped by pulling back some branches and modifying the course of the road to make it easier. Quiet at night, and private save the occasional horse and buggy in the distance. Great view at day and stars at night. Not much daytime shade at this site but his other sites offer more shade. No hook ups, we were dry camping, and knew that in advance. We and our kids and dogs had a really nice time!
