Barely Do Farm started as a Family tobacco farm in Nashville Tennessee. As the city grew neighboring farms one by one became neighborhoods and eventually the farm was sold. We adopted the name for our homestead here in Pennsylvania and here the spirit of the Barely Do lives on.

Disappointed
Honestly, we struggled with whether to write a review about our stay here. While we made the best of our few days, we felt kind of forgotten about by our hosts. The week before our stay, they messaged us to inform us that the road to the location had been washed out by heavy rain and we would not be able to drive our vehicle up the hill. They did offer us the option of cancelling our stay due to this. However, we decided to keep our booking. We asked if they would be able to help us get our stuff up the hill when we arrived and said they could. When we booked the stay, we were told that they would like to have a meet and greet when we arrived. On our way there we sent a few messages to our hosts to let them know when we would arrive but we didn't here back from them. We arrived around 2:30 but we still didn't here anything from them. We ended up hauling our stuff up the hill and finding the site on our own. After arriving at the site, we found the bus to be very dirty inside as if I wasn't cleaned after the last guests left. The solar power was not charged before we arrived and we didn't have any power or water available to us. It wasn't until 5 o'clock or so that we heard back from one of our hosts. It wasn't until 6 o'clock at night that someone arrived to fill the water pump and fill the generator with gas to charge the batteries in the bus. After our host was done we were left to listen to the generator ran the whole night until it ran out of gas. Like I said, we made the best of that night but all of it made it feel forgotten about or even unwelcome. When it was time to go to bed, we found that the boards that made up the bed we're broken making for a very uncomfortable sleeping situation. The next day the electric charger was beeping non stop, so we had to turn it off. We didn't really understand how the power worked so we ended up running out of juice in the middle of the night. We had also spent an extra $20 to "meet the animals" on the farm, but we never heard back from our hosts for the rest of our trip. When it came to the last day, we decided to leave as early possible because we had no power and felt really uncomfortable and forgotten about. The place had a lot of potential but we feel really disappointed by our stay because of situations that could've by better communication and attention.

Unique getaway!
We had a great time visiting Wanda! It was nice to have the spices, pots/pans/utensils available if needed. Wanda had plenty of space for two of us and driving into town/around the area was super easy. Cristina was great at communicating with us when needed. I would recommend Wanda to others!

Barely Do Farm
Great open campsites and Nice Owner
The gravel road to campsite 1 is VERY precarious! We got the car stuck, but thankfully the owners were AMAZING and helped us get unstuck! The other campsites are actually pretty accessable though and they let us use one of those instead after arriving. We ordered the firewood and eggs and had a fantastic fire pit and open area. The owners are sooooo nice and the property has lots of cute animals. Recommended!

I would visit again.
The farm is adorable. I stayed at campsite #3 and it was really private and peaceful, which I loved. On my second day I slipped and twisted my knee. I had to pack up and leave early. After contacting Cristina and Pete, they expressed concern for my injury and offered to refund my money for the last several days of my reservation. Which was an unexpected kindness! In the world of business it’s rare that those in charge go above and beyond to open their private property for others to use and also to treat their guests with care and humanity. I am grateful for the opportunity that they have provided for the community of Hipcampers. I wish I could have stayed longer. I might even return next year and give it another try!
