About Tyme Farm

2 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents26 acres · Westminster, MD
About Tyme Farm is a 26 plus acre privately owned farm used for crops such as corn, soy beans and sunflowers. The property includes a 150+ year old stone farm house, large historic barn on the barn quilt tour in Carroll County, renovated camping cabin for those not into rough camping, fields, streams , woods for hiking, plenty of wild life and lots of quiet. The farm is surrounded by other farms in the agricultural preservation program yet you are only 5 miles from stores, movies, antiques and other aspects of civilization or entertainment if needed. Enjoy watching the deer come out of the woods and meander along the stream and fields at dusk and return in the morning. Electric, water, fire pit and a Port a Pot is available even for rough campers. Pets welcome but must be on a leash or exercise pen or with their owners in some way while here for their safety. There is a large fenced yard for dogs that just have to run if needed. Glamorous camping with a furnished heated/cooled cabin is available for rent by the night for those who do not have camping equipment or do not want to rough it. For those that have been camping before and have all the equipment there is plenty of room for a tent or camper near the buildings or by the stream or woods. For RV owners there is 50amp electric service in the barn. You will need an RV extension cord to access it. I have a 100 ft RV ext. cord but it can be farther than that depending on where you park. Bring one of your own to be sure. It is a farm and not set up like an RV park with numerous outlets.

Long Acre Farm

1 site · Lodging26 acres · Lebanon, PA
Long Acre Farm is a perfect spot for a quick getaway in a quiet setting. This is a great place to relax after a day out at Hershey(25 minutes) or the many other local attractions! Although we are rural, we are located close to Hershey, Annville LVC, Renn Faire, Hollywood Casino, Lebanon Expo Center, and Farm Show Complex. You will be steps away from horse pastures and can visit with them as you like. You will stay in a renovated living space in our late 1700s bank barn. Everything you need is here in the rental! There's a full eat-in kitchen, living room with a smart TV and wifi, desk space, bathroom with shower/tub, and two bedrooms. One bedroom has a very comfy queen bed, and the other bedroom has a full bed, twin bed, and twin trundle. You have a balcony all to yourself overlooking the farm. The rental is located next to our farm and feed shop in the barn so if you need any boots, hats, or feed while you're staying with us, please stop over! The main entrance to the rental is located at the top side of the bank barn at our shop entrance. The balcony is in the rear and you can go in and out through there too. From the barn, there is a gravel path to our rear stables. You may walk this trail at any time to see what's going on at the farm and to visit with the horses. The horses that are boarded at our farm are in training. They are either here to learn to be ridden, ride trails, or they have a bad habit that they are working on correcting. We ask that you don't reach in and try to pet them due to these issues. You may walk on the trail from the barn to the rear stables and watch the horses. We also have two corgis and two labs that work on the farm. They are off-leash throughout the property. They are all extremely safe and friendly and will most likely run up and say "hello." We accept a maximum of two dogs under 30 lbs to stay with you. If you have dogs travelling with you, please keep them on leash and be aware that our dogs might interact with your dogs. We have several barn cats too that you may see!

Cozy Little Old House in Lost Creek

1 site · Lodging2 acres · Gilberton, PA
The house is located on two acres. There is a firepit on the property with plenty of wood available. There are hiking trails right behind the house. Campers are welcome to stay in the house or camp in the back yard. You can call it Executive camping. The house is old and was built in 1860 so it has an old house feel. It is fully functional with heat and hot water. There are 3 bedrooms and a bathroom with nice hot water and a kitchen for cooking. There is also a beautiful deck behind the house with a grill. Many of my guest says this is the best part of the house.. Its really inspiring to sit on the deck at night time and look at the stars. There is a lot to do in the area, when you book I can send you a list of things. There is a unique thermal geyser about 3 miles down the road that is a must see for example. Knoebbles amusement park is about a 20 minute drive if that is your thing.

Cabins near Harrisburg guide

Overview

Harrisburg, PA camping puts the Susquehanna River in full-focus. Whether you stay close to the river or camp deeper in town, you can explore Harrisburg’s numerous viewpoints, attractions, and museums. Spend a morning in the National Civil War Museum and savor lunch along the waterfront. Then, check into your RV campsite with full hookups, volleyball courts, and on-site restrooms. Oh, and if you’re planning a family-friendly getaway, don’t forget the region’s other claim to fame: theme parks. Grab a chocolate bar (or two) after a day in Hershey. S’mores around the fire pit have never been so easy.

Where to go

Boyd Big Tree Preserve Conservation Area

Birds of a feather flock together, and at Boyd Big Tree Preserve Conservation Area, that sentiment holds true for birdwatchers. Just 15 minutes outside Harrisburg, the conservation area is a hub for warblers. Campers should bring binoculars to traverse the hiking trails. From your forest campsite, you’ll wake up to the melody of birdsong and let the day guide you.

Along the River

The Susquehanna River is geographically known as one of the world’s oldests rivers—and it runs right along Harrisburg. Choose a direction, and follow the course of the water. Campsites likewise come with access to golf courses, parks, and even a section of the Appalachian Trail. So, Harrisburg campers can ultimately choose their own adventures, all while listening to the trickle of the tributary.

Across the River

Park yourself across the river and explore the region’s parks. All the camping options and activities converge at Gifford Pinchot State Park. Just outside Harrisburg, campers can hike, canoe, and play round after round of disc golf before returning to a spacious yurt or decked-out cabin. Meanwhile, Michaux State Forest may be an hour from Harrisburg, but—with options for both ATV riding and mountain biking—here is a thrill-seeker’s paradise.

When to go

Summer is the best time for Harrisburg camping, as the wildflowers bloom and both birds and butterflies multiply. If you’re bringing your kids, summer is likewise prime time for all the activities; theme parks and similar family-friendly attractions tend to close during the off-months. Fall, however, doesn’t leave campers hanging. When the days and nights begin to cool, you can cozy up in your sleeping bag, whether in your tent or directly under the stars.
