Sunnyday's Forest

2 sites · Lodging25 acres · Tarentum, PA

Sunnyday's farm and forest was a Christmas tree farm in the 1950's. I've owned it for the last 30 years and it is now a horse farm with pastures and woods.Rustic area of 25 acres of pastures and forest bordering a hundred of acres of railroad and municipal forest. Great for hiking, horseback riding, mountain biking. 1.5 miles from Deer Lakes park which has fishing, hiking, mountain biking and a great playground. The Allegheny river, judged to be one of the cleanest in the country, is just 6 miles away. Harrison Hills park offers great hiking along the river and an occasional river otter. The Rachel Carson Trail and Baker trail are just a few miles away. It is a secluded log cabin in the woods on top of a hill overlooking a pasture. It is a very primitive cabin with a fireplace, brick floor, large porch, fabric interior and no chinking in the logs. We provide a bunk bed and cots and 2 picnic tables.. There is a large grassy area in front of the cabin for tents. There is no vehicle access, no electricity and no water at the cabin, but LOTS of downed wood for fires. There are horses, goats, chickens, ducks and a pig that roam the pastures. The cabin is about 300 yards from the parking area up a fairly steep hill, but the location is worth the walk! If you're stopping with an RV or trailer we have ample parking near the road and have overnight accommodations for horses Great place for a stopover.

Weekend Trip to DLR Mustang Ranch

This place is truly a hidden gem—I can’t wait to come back! Renee was incredibly kind and welcoming, making sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The cabin was cozy and well-kept, and falling asleep each night to the soothing sounds of nature was pure bliss. One of the highlights of my visit was spending time with all the animals—especially the beautiful mustangs and the unforgettable Fred the turkey! It was such a peaceful and memorable escape.

3 nights at Rustic Acres - Elevated RV Camping

Clean, organized, well maintained. Very responsive staff. Great location. Nice tall trees provide good shade in most sites. If you are a remote worker, you'll love The Hub. It's a co-work space right on the property. Nice rustic interior design. The outreach attracts courteous guests. I was there 4th of July weekend. No excessive barking dogs or loud music. Just a nice vibe. I recommend this campground.

3 nights at Rustic Acres - Elevated RV Camping

We really enjoyed our first stay at Rustic Acres, especially the amenities for kids and families. Nice large playground, cornhole boards, and the hub (an air conditioned indoor space when we needed a break from the heat) were the things we used the most. We plan on visiting again soon.

Weekend Trip to DLR Mustang Ranch

Our experience was so peaceful that we had to stay another day. The host family was so inviting it was like we were apart of the family. The work that the family is doing on the DLR Ranch is honorable, rehabbing horses and also Helping Our Veterns. We can not wait for our next visit. I give the DLR Ranch a 10 out of 10.

Weekend Trip to DLR Mustang Ranch

We had a remarkable time at the DRL Mustang Ranch! We were seeking the perfect place to camp and enjoy nature, and boy did we find it. From the stunning mustangs, donkeys, peacocks, ducks, and of course Fred the friendly Turkey, we truly had a wonderful time and were one with nature. Thank you Renee and Dale for being fantastic and friendly hosts. Thank you also for the amazing work that you’re doing to impact mustangs, veterans, and people with all abilities!

Weekend Trip to DLR Mustang Ranch

Our experience was nothing short of amazing. We were greeted by a wealth of animals both domestic and wild, yet the ambiance was incredibly peaceful. What set this place apart from all the others was the host, Renee, and her family. They were warm, inviting and gracious. The story behind the mission of their ranch for both the Mustangs and Veterans is honorable and is a reflection of the family you will meet. All this along with comfortable accommodations makes this "my go to place".

Weekend Trip to River Hills Above the Allegheny

This is an amazing hip camp. Part of our family was on the Open Field and part were up at the River Ridge site. We all gathered on the open field for meals. One side was shady in the morning and the opposite side by the campfire and picnic table was shady in the evening. We had hot days so we found water activities in the afternoons. The waterfall on the property was just as described and so fun. Another day we hiked part of the North Country Trail and had ice cream in Parker. The outhouse was in good condition just as described and a short walk from our camper. Sunsets were beautiful!! Chris was immediate with responses to any questions. If you are bringing a camper pay attention to his instructions for getting there!

Weekend Trip to Roller-Coaster Road Ranch

Todd was an excellent host. He greeted us upon arrival and gave us a tour of the property. He also told us a lot about the area and things to do. The property is amazing! Beautiful trail, a river and creek, which is deep enough to swim in. We brought our rafts and floated in the river part. It was nice and relaxing. My husband and I will defiantly be back!

Weekend Trip to Stoney Run Primitive Tent Camping

Couldn't have been any easier to enjoy a beautiful spot. Can park within 10 feet and it's all flat. There is also a very clean and large tent setup if needed. Water was beautiful along our spot and was great to cool down in. Would definitely recommend if you want a quiet scenic spot that's easy to get to and enjoy.

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.

There is space for an RV in the driveway next to the woods with electric hookup and access to the outhouse, water pump, and firepit. While this is a working ranch with farm animals, our aim is to create a peaceful relaxing environment in order to unwind and enjoy the creation around us. Going in the pastures with horses while unaccompanied by the owners is prohibited; however, it can be arranged for you to meet and interact with the mustangs if interested.

Acquired and protected by Allegheny Land Trust in 2008, Sycamore Island is a floodplain forest with a ranking of “high significance” within the Allegheny River Biological Diversity Area (BDA) Natural Heritage Area. Before the island was protected by ALT, the island had periodic interludes of recognition and appreciation by humans as a natural refuge. In 1936, both Sycamore Island and Nine Mile Island were leased from the Pennsylvania Railroad by the Audubon Society of Western Pennsylvania, making these islands the first bird sanctuaries in the Pittsburgh region. The Harbor Isle Boat Club was in existence on the island during the late 1960s but was later abandoned leaving behind several significant features; including a barge that remains embedded in the sand at the island’s southern tip, a partially installed swimming pool, docking platform, and a series of offshore pilings in the back channel.

During your stay, you will be challenged to think differently about how you go about meeting your daily needs.

After all, necessity is the mother of invention. This is our first study of building a sustainable living environment. We started with a blank slate, a new system designed with the permaculture principles in mind and the intention of ultimately creating a living space with the creature comforts we have all grown accustomed to. Eventually we will be building the next round of accommodations (principal: Small & Slow Solutions). When staying in one of our cabins, you are participating in this process by sharing with us your experience (principal: Observe & Interact), letting us know what you have discovered you can and can not live without, and possible solutions to efficiently address those needs and wants (principal: Apply Self Regulation & Accept Feedback).

The Montour Trail stands out as the longest suburban rail-trail in the United States, offering a unique multi-use, non-motorized recreational pathway around Pittsburgh. This privately owned and operated trail spans approximately 47 miles, with branch routes extending the total length to over 60 miles.

Camping in Moraine State Park guide

Overview

About

Pennsylvania's third-largest state park is a dream with more than 16,725 acres of lakeside beaches and wooded hills converted from former mining land. Outdoor activities span all tastes thanks to 71 miles of trails to hike, mountain bike, or horseback ride, plus sledding, cross-country skiing, and snowmobiling through winter. Aquaphiles are equally well-served, with 42 miles of lakeside to cruise, windsurf, or fish—or you can hit the sandy beaches to swim and sunbathe. Camping isn't permitted within the park, but two primitive campsites are available for organized groups only, as well as cozy cabins.

Tips for snagging a campsite

You can reserve one of 11 cabins or two group campgrounds via the Pennsylvania State Parks website.
Campsite reservations open 11 months in advance, and all sites must be reserved a minimum of three days in advance.
Cabins can book up fast, especially if visiting between April and October. Book at least three months in advance, or even earlier for summer or holiday weekends.

When to go

Moraine State Park is open year-round, and with up to 2 million annual visitors, don't expect to have the trails to yourself.

Muskrat Cove Campground

You need to remove this listing as muskrat cove campground IS NOT a hipcamp. This is the same as false advertising. Shame on you. The park is now aware of the false listing.
