Campers have consistently praised Steve's land for its tranquil setting, nestled by the Greenbrier River and Trail. The location is ideal for both cycling and hiking, with spacious sites that provide a sense of privacy. The amenities such as hot showers, clean porta-potties, and a communal pavilion with charging stations add convenience without overshadowing the natural surroundings. However, a few campers noted the absence of a trash disposal option on-site.
This is the third time that we camped on Steve's land and it is by far our favorite camping spot. We love the peace and quiet. Steve and his friends do a fabulous job of making sure everything is good and that all of their guests are looked after. They expected a large group the same weekend we were there and made it a point to come around and ask if there were any problems (the group was very well behaved so there were no issues) but it was clear that Steve cared about all of his guests. We'll be back again next year.
Beautiful piece of property right next to the Greenbrier River and Trail. Maple farm. Plenty of wood, good clean amenities. Would recommend!
Only critique would be to have a map available on Hipcamp when booking so campers can better choose which site they want to reserve.
Nelson and Steve were extremely helpful and accommodating for our group. I would highly recommend the campground: great pavilion area with sink & running water, hot showers, clean toilet facilities (primitive), firewood for sale at a reasonable cost on site, and great access to the Greenbrier River Trail in a beautiful setting.
The campsite was beautiful and secluded. The sky was absolutely gorgeous. We fell asleep to the amazing sound of the river and nature all around us. Our experience was amazing. The outdoor shower had hot water and the first bundle of firewood was free. We will be returning in the future!
Steve’s land is located on the greenbrier trail, which is convenient for walking and for cycling! I’d imagine it’s a busy campground during the summer months. We were there the last weeekend in October during the middle of the week and had the place to ourselves.
We were at site #25, which was off the beaten path of comers and goers (if there were any but close to the trail). The amenities were appreciated, wood, showers, water faucets, otherwise primitive, which we like!
We enjoyed a very peaceful visit and streams of Canada geese flying overhead every morning!
Thanks Steve for sharing your land!
This campground is located in a beautiful region of Monongahela. The campsites sit between two foothills along a stream feeding a larger river just down the road, offering a serene setting.
Campsite #11 is close to the shower house and bathrooms, making it easy to navigate at night. If there's not a full moon the site is very dark and isn't illuminated. We loved the night skies and a friend stayed up late enough to catch an Aurora ❤️
Steve made everything easy to navigate without a camp host on site and we loved our long weekend exploring the area. About 20 minutes from Cranberry Bogs and the waterfalls, 2 hours from Seneca Rocks and an hour + to Cass Mountain Railroad.
