This is an interesting campground. Clean with beautiful scenery but extremely small. The individual sights are level but the sights are tiered beside each other. Our steps were probably 6 feet from the neighbors sewer/water hook up. We had a pull through site but had to back up onto the road to get out because there was no room to pull forward. We paid $70 a night. Apparently we were paying high prices because it's in "Amish" country. I have never seen so many camping sites on such a small piece of property. The lady at the office was very helpful & friendly.

Rented a cabin for a couple days at beacon hill while on a motorcycle trip across Pennsylvania. The camp ground is small but very clean, quiet and surrounded by farms. The cabin was clean and simple! A fun and unique experience compared to a cookie cutter hotel.

This was our third time staying here and we will definitely be back! Small, quiet, campground. Lovely owner and camp hosts. Everything is immaculately clean, and the laundry machines actually work! Full dryer load that didn't need to be turned on a 2nd and 3rd time - that hasn't happened in a couple of years at other campgrounds! :) Met some nice seasonal campers, too!

This is the best campground, although it is a little tight here, it is just down the road from all the Amish towns. Right next door to a Amish farm and a perfect location to watch all the horse and buggy go by. Almost every night an Amish family brings baked goods to sell. This place is in the perfect location with friendly staff and a quiet feel. I highly recommend.

Directly between two roads. Love the no kids wish it was no dogs as well. Our first night there the people next to us had 4 dogs and were barking a lot. Loved how close to the shops it was. Best views! Wish you had a pool and putting putting golf
