The Best Tent Camping Near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A convenient way to camp outdoors. Enjoy a 16' spacious tent that can accommodate up to 5 people on our 20 acres of rolling hills. Just an hour and 10 minutes away from Philadelphia and less than 2 hours from Newark airport. The property is overlooking the beautiful Oley Valley and has convenient paths to roam around and enjoy the open fields, nature, and views. There are fishing locations close by, restaurants, bars, and local produce shops, between 5-20 min driving in all directions.

Sleeping

Our cozy setup includes a spacious king-size bed with 2 Twin XL mattresses, along with 2 extra single mattresses for 2 more people. Need room for one more person? No problem! We've got space on the floor where they can snuggle up with a sleeping bag.

Don't worry if you don't have sleeping bags of your own or prefer not to bring them along—we've got you covered! You can rent our comfy sleeping bags for just $10 each, regardless of how long you'll be staying. Let us know in advance if you will need sleeping bags.



Electricity

Our campsite caters to both primitive and luxurious experiences. If you desire electricity, a quiet generator is available nearby for an additional fee of $30 per day, including gasoline. You can use it to light up the camp with our delightful string lights, charge your devices, and more.



Bonfire

We have a fantastic fire pit available for your enjoyment at the campsite. Feel free to bring your own wood, and if needed, we can also supply you with wood for the fire. Simply let us know in advance how many packs you'll require. Each pack of wood is priced at $15.



For those who prefer a smoke-free and hassle-free way to stay warm, we offer a convenient small propane outdoor heater that functions similarly to a bonfire. The fee for using this heater is $30 per stay or per propane tank (20 lb), depending on which one ends first. Please note that using 16 oz small propane cylinders with this heater is not recommended, as they will deplete quickly.



Kitchen

Our kitchen is equipped with a grill/smoker, a spacious cooler, and a convenient serving table, ensuring a seamless cooking experience during your stay.



We've provided essential cooking utensils, including a skillet, a small pot for boiling water, a spatula, a serving spoon and fork, utensils for four people, and cups. Additionally, grill tools are available for your convenience. Kindly remember to bring your own cooking essentials such as oil, salt, pepper, and other preferred seasonings.



If you intend to use the propane stove for cooking, we kindly ask you to bring your own Coleman 16 oz. All-Purpose Propane Camping Gas Cylinders. These green small containers are commonly available in stores. However, if you prefer us to handle the propane supply, we offer the service at a cost of $15 per container. Simply inform us in advance, and we will gladly take care of it for you.



Restroom/Shower

We provide restroom and shower facilities for your convenience during your stay.

The shower is a field shower, and while it does not have hot water, it offers a refreshing bathing experience amidst the natural surroundings.

For restroom needs, we have porta-potties available. They are conveniently located just a 1-minute walk from the campsite.



Heating inside the tent

Currently, we have a propane heater with a 20 lb tank that can warm you up during the night. Let us know if you wish to use it. The fee for using this heater is also $30 per stay or per propane tank.



Noise

We kindly request that our campsite be treated as a tranquil and peaceful environment, rather than a venue for raves or parties with loud music. While we appreciate the healing power of music and welcome its presence, we ask that it be kept at a reasonable volume throughout the day. To ensure a restful experience for all our guests, we observe quiet hours from 9 PM until 8 AM. We sincerely appreciate your understanding and cooperation in respecting these guidelines. Thank you.



Property lines

We would like to inform our guests that the surrounding woods are not part of our property. Therefore, we kindly request that you refrain from crossing over into the neighboring properties during your stay.



Pets

We love pets! This place is heaven for dogs, so bring your lovely friend with you and have fun. If you do bring your pet make sure that it doesn't go on the bed and mattresses and that you clean after your pet, even if he or she did it in the forest or the open field. Others follow you and wouldn't want to bump into it. Thank you!



When you leave

Please close all windows and the door all the way.

Don't forget your belongings.

Dumping your garbage at the entrance of the property is very much appreciated!



Our premises offer a variety of scenic paths for you to walk and explore. Take in the breathtaking views of Oley Valley from our swing located at the top of the hills, known as Vista Point. To help you navigate and discover the different points of interest, we have provided a property map. Simply pick one up from the green mailbox at the entrance, where you'll find information on the location of the meditation circle, various vista points, and general property lines. Feel free to embark on a journey of discovery and make the most of the beautiful surroundings.



The Oley Valley and the mountains and other valleys around have a lot to offer. If you'd like to explore the area, please let us know, and we'll provide you with a map or a link to local attractions.

Ridley Creek State Park - GROUP CAMP

Alverthorpe Private Park

Evansburg State Park

Washington Crossing State Park is the site of General George Washington’s historic 1776 Christmas night crossing of the icy Delaware River. For almost ten hours, boats and ferries moved continuously back and forth carrying men, horses and cannon to the Jersey side. By midnight a strong storm had developed, hurling sleet, hail and snow at the rebel army. Landing at Johnson’s Ferry, the Continental Army still faced an arduous nine mile march to Trenton as the storm continued with a vengeance. Reaching Trenton in the early morning of December 26th, the American Army surrounded, defeated and captured over 900 Hessian mercenaries and secured a morale boosting victory of immeasurable proportions.

Group campsites:
Four group campsites are located in the Phillips Farm area of the park. Each site contains picnic tables, fire rings and a composting toilet. These are designated as primitive campsites with no water or electric utilities available on site. Total combined capacity of all four sites: 115. We highly recommend that group leaders carefully estimate their group size so not to overestimate as refunds cannot be made.
