Chris and Jackie's campsite near Ricketts Glen is a favorite among campers for its friendly hosts and well-maintained facilities. The location is ideal for nature lovers looking to explore nearby waterfalls and enjoy the tranquil environment. Key features include clean port-a-potties, a dishwashing station, and spacious campsites that offer privacy. While most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, some visitors noted the presence of spiders and that activities require a short drive.

Lovely people, amazing trip
So much good stuff to say about these folks. My family and I were a group about 12 strong, so planning and finding campsites is usually a huge pain. However, booking and setting up the yearly trip was so easy this time around. We had the whole site to ourselves, so Chris and Jackie gave us the run of the land. The facilities arent extensive but they are exactly what you need for a weekend camping trip. Notably, no one in the group got a tick or mosquito bite, even though we were deep in summer at that point. The sight of the stars in this area was breathtaking- each night, our whole group laid out in the grass to stargaze, and we even saw multiple shooting stars. Rickets Glenn is only a short 20-30 minute drive depending on where you go, and the park has a huge variety of trails as well as truly breathtaking views. The only thing I could think to gripe about (and I had to dig to think of it) is the fact that you can't bring your own wood- but their wood is relativley cheap, and it burned nice and slow. A few bundles lasted three days, plus we cooked with it. In all, Chris and Jackie made our lives so easy and made us feel really welcome. Can't go wrong with these folks.

We had a fantastic time tent camping on Jackie and Chris’s land. They are wonderful hosts and provided everything we needed, including firewood and lights. Their communication was excellent and they were very prompt! We also recommend taking a pontoon boat ride with Clark. He gave us a great tour of Harvey’s Lake and made the experience memorable. Thank you!

Beautiful environment with kind and welcoming hosts. All of the activities however has to be driven to so that was bit of a hassle. Also some information about the amount of spiders on the property would have been beneficial. Other than that had an amazing trip.

Overall we had a great experience. Unfortunately, the site was in the host’s backyard and didn't feel as private as we expected.
