Oh! Pear Orchards is nestled in the Endless Mountain Region in northeastern PA. Located on the fertile ground between two rivers, the orchard has several varieties of pears, including, but not limited to, Olympic Giants, Hosui, Bartlett and 21st Century. In addition to selling Asian pears, Oh! Pear offers a look at a close to zero energy footprint. Within a half-hour of our campsites are the Merli-Sarnoski Park and the Lackawanna and Salt Springs State Parks--which offer hiking, fishing and other outdoor activities. Endless Brewing and EMR Event (Paintball) Park are also located nearby. Three showers restrooms with in 2 miles of site. The main difference between the showers at the Pen Can, Burger King, and Flying J truck stops in Harford and New Milford, PA is the price. The Pen Can charges $10 for a shower, Burger King charges $7, and Flying J charges $5. The quality of the showers is also slightly different, with the Pen Can having the nicest showers, followed by Flying J and then Burger King. The Pen Can also has the most shower stalls, with 10, followed by Flying J with 6 and Burger King with 4. Here is a more detailed comparison of the showers at each truck stop: Pen Can Price: $10 Number of stalls: 10 Amenities: Shampoo, conditioner, soap, towels, hair dryers Quality: Best Burger King Price: $7 Number of stalls: 4 Amenities: Shampoo, conditioner, soap, towels Quality: Good Flying J Price: $5 Number of stalls: 6 Amenities: Shampoo, conditioner, soap, towels Quality: Fair In addition to the price and quality of the showers, there are a few other factors to consider when choosing a truck stop shower. One factor is the location of the truck stop. The Pen Can is located in Harford, PA, which is about 2 miles from Oh! Pear. The Burger King and Flying J truck stops are both located in New Milford, PA about 3 miles from Oh! Pear.. Another factor to consider is the amenities offered by the truck stop. The Pen Can offers a variety of amenities, including a convenience store, a restaurant, and a laundry room. The Burger King and Flying J truck stops only offer a convenience store and a restaurant. Finally, you may also want to consider the hours of operation of the truck stop showers. The Pen Can showers are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The Burger King and Flying J truck stops showers are open from 6am to 10pm. Ultimately, the best truck stop shower for you will depend on your individual needs and preferences. If you are looking for the best quality shower, the Pen Can is the best option. If you are looking for the most affordable shower, Burger King is the best option. And if you are looking for a shower with a variety of amenities, the Pen Can is the best option. Please check prices as they are subject to change. HANNAH'S HAVEN: This is our original campsite--which began our Oh! Pear camping legacy. The campsite is a short walk downhill from where you park (please refer to the short video provided, when booked, for more information) and it is remote. Rugged, majestic and serene sites (4) are spatially set alongside the picturesque stream. Each site is outfitted with a Big Horn 47" Wood Burning Ranch Fire Pit (with grill grate), a picnic table and the potential for an outside adventure. Bounded on one side by an escarpment and on the other side a mountain, this campsite is irrevocably secluded--and has been voted the #1 Hipcamp site in PA and in the nation--as evidenced by the nearly perfect positive reviews from those adventurers who have stayed here.....and our many repeat Hipcampers. Although our check-in process is to go straight to camp, if we're onsite, we do offer the option of meet and greet. While we respect the privacy of our Hipcampers, we also love to meet our Guests and are very conversant once you grab our ear! For those of you who want to stay in touch--although we suggest you not plug in--new this year, we hope to have a 100Mbps broadcast gateway that more than triples our previous bandwidth (included in the price). For Holidays and Special Events (i.e., Harford Fair August 14-19)), we do require a 2-night minimum stay, there will be a cost of $20 for each additional Hipcamper and we operate under a SUPER STRICT Cancellation policy. By booking Hannah's Haven, you and every member of your party confirm that you have read, understood and will abide by all Rules as stated. For non-Holiday/Special Event weekdays, we offer a 20% discount. If Hannah's Haven isn't available, or if you'd like to consider one of our other sites, please see: Liam's Lair (just upstream from Hannah's Haven) and, across the road, our newly opened site--The Serengeti. We limit to what we believe suitable the number of Hipcampers at each of our campsites. If, however, you are interested in adding to the limit, please feel free to contact us beforehand. If you forget something, and we're onsite, and we can assist, please let us know. NEW CAMPSITES/OFFERINGS ANTICIPATED THIS SEASON (please, however, check beforehand): Outdoor Movies: Bring your camping chair/sleeping bag and watch a movie under the stars in the spacious farmhouse backyard. Hannah's Haven Buyout: Additional details to follow. Sailor's Secret: This campsite can accommodate larger parties of eight (8) or more. After parking and a short walk, you stumble upon the most of serene of landscapes--bordered on one side by a closed oxbow water feature found on Oh! Pear Orchards north stream. The view from across from the campsite beyond the stream is the foot of a mountain. In all likelihood, you'll be sharing this location with beaver, turtles, fish, deer and waterfowl alike. Enjoy the seclusion; you deserve it. We are considering floating tents at this location and are very interested in your input. Lucky's Ledge: This 1200' linear campsite, a ledge cut into the escarpment within view of Oh! Pear south stream, lies about 60' above the stream. This campsite is for those Hipcampers who desire not to set up their own tent, but instead, have one pre-placed for them--or are welcome to bring their own. The ledge is merely 15' wide.....so watch your step! Accompanying this campsite is use during non-quiet hours of the spacious farmhouse backyard.

Tent camping with our 5 year old
this was our 2nd time camping at this amazing spot. It’s a bit of a trek down to the creek but it’s 100% worth it. Very peaceful and good spot for the little ones to play in the water. Highly recommend.

Beautiful next to a stream spacious campsites with picnic tables. There is a bit of a hill to get to/from the campsites but there is a great cart to use. Hannah’s is more accessible if you have a lot of stuff but Liam’s is more remote and tucked away. Fire wood was by campsite and had really nice fire pits. Overall really beautiful and serene and we are excited to come back again.

Donna and Greg were great. Communication couldn't have been better and that's key to a great stay. The site itself (Liam's Lair) was perfectly tucked along the creek side, nice level ground to pitch the tent and a good layout to settle in and set up camp. Go!

Beautiful Campsite ❤️
This is the 2nd time I've been to Hannah's Haven. My friends liked it so much because there's a lot of shades to hide when its hot and humid. Greg was so helpful to us. He even carry our things w/ an Argo which was a big help with our group of 19 people and his very responsive when we have questions and concerns. We will definitely comeback for the 3rd time. Thank you very much, Greg and Family.

LIAM'S LAIR
Best First Time Camping Experience!
As first time campers, my boyfriend and I couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. Liam’s Lair is a gorgeous site, very private and serene right on a creek. It came equipped with a picnic table (with an umbrella!) as well as a fire pit with a grill top. The hosts, Greg & Donna, are the nicest people who are willing to assist you in any way during your stay. They were informative and left no room for guessing. We used the Flying J rest stop for showers (which I highly recommend) and there is a Walmart about 30 mins away for any last-minute needs. This is a a total hidden gem and I strongly suggest this for any first time campers!!! We fell in love with the site and absolutely plan on returning again.
