This is your spot. Your own private campground on 5 acres of forest canopy that we unofficially call "Fern Gully", this site is literally adjacent to scenic Clear Creek State Park (1211 acres) and pristine "old-growth" Clear Creek State Forest (16229 acres). Accessible by RVs of any size. Tent campers welcome! Don't have an RV?? Check out RVshare.com to discover loads of options! A driveway leads to a large, flat landing where RVs can set up. Electric (50 and 20 amp) + pressurized water hook-up at sites. UPDATE: we recently added a second site for "friends/family"(full hook-ups) at the other end of the parking pad for those wishing to camp with guests. Fire pit on location. Firewood can be found on the property, but always smart to bring some. The road in can be rough, just go slow. We are working with the state to fix it. Do it your way! Come relax and unwind or get out and get active. Enjoy the serenity and solitude that nature provides at this quiet hideaway for peace and tranquility. POINTS of INTEREST: -Clear Creek State Park swimming area is minutes away, right down the road! -Only a few miles to Clarion River (2019 River of the Year) launch access!

Awesome place!

Another great trip to Josh’s place! If you have doggos that like to sniff and run, this is the place! But Make sure you check your furry friends for ticks, we pulled a few off of our dogs every night. My husband used the Public land for hunting and I enjoyed the beautiful colors of the trees. We love this place and will hopefully be back next year for year 3.

Enchanted Forest

It felt like being in a peaceful enchanted forest. It was really beautiful and relaxing. We had everything we needed at this site and we relaxed in peace the whole weekend. It was nice that the site was so tucked away and private, but also surrounded by a cute little forest-y community, so we felt pretty safe. Right up the street is a super cute camp store (for the campground across the way) that was very welcoming and had anything you could need, as well as a cleanout station we were able to use. P.S. I highly recommend that you not arrive after dark. We got thoroughly lost and confused because of this 😂 Our GPS did not take us directly to the site (it was off by quite a long shot,) we had no service, and you really can’t see a thing out there in the dark. We likely would have been far less confused if it was still light out though. Some nice neighbors saw us struggling and came out and helped direct us.

Josh’s land was very secluded and it truly did feel like you were the only people in the world there. Woods all around you. Very sort drive to multiple attractions. We unfortunately could only stay 1 out of the 3 nights we had planned for so we didn’t get a chance to enjoy it for long but Josh offered to refund us our money without even having to ask which was very generous of him. We will make it back next year.

Stunning!

Paradise! Very secluded and private. Great place to get away from it all. The forest around the campsite was beautiful. The site was so quiet. We came to fish the Clarion and had great success chasing small mouth bass. Highly recommend taking the second entrance to Elk Rd. The road is very rough but doable in our van. We just went super slow.

The campsite area itself was nice. Very flat, lots of privacy. It was just as described. Our only concern was the road to get to the site, it is super rough, it’s a gravel road that’s been severely washed. We have a class A RV and I was concerned about blowing a tire in the ruts.
