Note: For the winter months we are closed, we reopen in march. The furthest we are open at any given moment is about six months. We close when hunting season comes in during the fall. Description of camp: This is not a glampsite! There are limited utilities here. No Drinking water, just water for the fire. There is a self serve firewood store, you may also forage dead wood. Here only one group may camp at a time. The campsite is a big level hilltop clearing surrounded by acres of woods. There is stone driveway that leads to the site that gets you back into the woods. The driveway is wide enough for trucks, trailers, vans, etc. Since the site is up high it gets a great breeze which helps on warm days and gets good cell service. The campsite gets great sun and has shaded areas along the sides that make for good tent pitching. We have had people set up hammocks, tents, tarps, or camp in their vehicle. We provide a privy (outhouse), an outdoor showerroom/changing room, picnic tables, and a metal fire pit with grill rack that you can put in the fire pit if you wish to cook/grill over it.

Beautiful location. Host easy to work with. Spot is private. Close to great state park and neat town. First night was very peaceful and quiet. But second night was disrupted by neighbors who were screaming, riding ATV’s and firing guns in the middle of the night. Clearly not the fault of the property owner, but good to be aware of the possibility.

The perfect balance of privacy and amenities for tent camping. There was plenty of firewood around the site with a great campfire pit. Plenty of peace found not too far off the beaten path.

The campsite was poorly maintained. This was not at all like other Hipcamp sites I have been to. Some weed waking would help, remove that useless metal ring inside the stone fire ring, replace the tattered tarp in front of the shower, remove the pallets by the fire ring with weeds growing thru it, provide smaller in diameter logs around the fire pit for campers to situate with moving smoke and at least, get rid of the 2”/3” branch end on those heavy logs, get rid of that nasty shovel with the broken handle. Can’t tell you about the out house, I never use them anyway but my camp fried said it wasn’t all that. Trails were really unusable as they were not at all maintained. Oh, if you like real peace and quiet, this would not be for you, Rt 30 road noise and the neighbor next to this property who runs their modified exhaust ATV usually in the early evening. This site has so much potential, it would just require maybe a weekends worth of work. Believe me I took a chance on all the positive reviews, just cant agree with them now.
