Opening in May 2025. PLEASE NOTE: For this spring/early summer, we will only have one site available, due to some ongoing projects on our land. Early spring bookings may not have as much privacy, due to the trees not growing in yet. Please read full listing for a description of our property and what to expect in this suburban oasis. We purchased our dream homestead in 2020, and we would love to share it with others as we build it to become bountiful and as self-sustaining as possible. It is not in the middle of nowhere....it's in the middle of everywhere! Learn more about this land: Camp next to a peaceful trickling creek just outside Phoenixville and Kimberton. We are a suburban oasis, surrounded by a little bit of everything.  Our homestead has plenty of activity including kids, dogs, and chickens, bees and goats! We have a fully wooded area available to explore across the creek, and weather dependent- the creek is a great place to stay cool. You'll see lots of growing fruit trees in our developing orchard and we are happy to share our vision for this beautiful land! We have a cabin-like bathroom and partial kitchen you will have access to during your stay. We always have cold water available for purchase in the fridge. There is trail access easily accessible from our home (the closest is approximately 1 mile), for paved or natural trail exploration. We are are a great stopping point for cyclists enjoying the area. It's a short drive to downtown Phoenixville with some of the best breweries around. Phoenixville is home to a great farmers market on Saturday mornings and numerous festivals. Also, close-by is the lovely quaint village of Kimberton, home of the best organic grocery store and many opportunities for hiking and small farms.

This campsite offers a blend of suburban convenience and natural charm, with a creekside location that many find soothing for sleep. Hosts Richard and family are consistently praised for their hospitality, adding a personal touch to the experience. While some reviews note the proximity to other houses, many appreciate the privacy and tranquility once settled into the campsite. Amenities like a bathroom and kitchen access are appreciated, though some suggest improvements such as adding a picnic table.

Really lovely camp site. We were traveling for a bike race and we were able to comfortably stay the night with great access to a bathroom and shower. The chickens and goats were really the greatest amenity of them all :) Great communication and hospitality.

Camping by the creek side!

The location is incredibly amazing! We sunk into the nature's beauty by the creek side and waking up with water sounds was truly a unique experience. Host Richard's hospitality was homely. Feeding the chickens is something could have planned better by communicating with us early. Overall it's a unique and amazing experience!

Cute spot
Tent · With kids ·
This is a sweet little spot. When you first arrive it is a little off-putting because there are houses really close but when you get in to your camp site (creekside) it is like a little secluded oasis with beautiful trees, a running creek and a little fishing spot for the kiddos. There is also a zip line. I've read in other reviews that a picnic table would be nice and I agree. Other than that, it was great. I would recommend.

Peaceful and convenient!

This was a good spot for a quick weekend trip! Quiet property with more privacy than you'd expect in a suburb. Falling asleep to the sound of the creek was very relaxing. Host gave a brief tour upon arrival including separate bathroom facilities. Would recommend to first-time campers or families looking for a launching pad to explore nearby town and parks.

Very Nice Stay!

We are seasoned tent campers and selected this place to spend the night so we didn’t have to drive a huge distance in one day. It is as described, and there was nothing that disappointed us. While it is not the most remote site… It turned out to be a lot quieter than some remote places we’ve stayed where we were camping near a noisy group or family. The sound of the flowing water in the brook next to our tent provided a nice lullaby. If I had a magic wand to have anything I wanted, I would have produced a picnic table for a touch of luxury, but it wasn’t a problem, since we are at home, sitting directly on mother earth! While we could see a few houses from adjacent properties, we never saw or heard anyone. There were no disturbances. A+ highly recommend.
