Notes from the host
Wallenpaupack C 5207
Summary:
NOTE: As of May 2021, we moved this site to a new location just down the creek. Reviews are not related to new location. We think you will love our creekside campsite tucked in the woods along the Wallenpaupack Creek. The site is nested in a very secluded grove of trees along the cow pastures. You'll be able to hear the creek as you fall asleep. It's the perfect getaway.
Our tent has a queen size bed and comfortably sleeps two people inside the canvas tent. You are welcome to use the extra pop-up tent to sleep extra guests or bring your own tent to put up. Our max for the site is 8 people per night.
We supply a propane grill with propane to use. There is a clean Porta-Potty at the campsite that is shared with one other campsite (Wallenpaupack Creek Camp 4)
Arriving to our property you will see our barn and farmhouse and you might be greeted by our two dogs - Rufus (great pyrenees) and Piper (border collie). Just keep driving past the dogs. You'll drive through our cow pastures (you'll likely see the cows grazing) to arrive at the campsite. Please booked directly on Tentrr.com for the best pricing and booking functionality.
The Space:
Creekside campsite getaway nestled in the woods on a 40 acre farm!
Guest Access:
This is an exclusive Tentrr Signature campsite. Tentrr partners with farmers, ranchers, and other property owners to offer unique outdoor accommodations on beautiful private land. Our campsites are off-the-grid which means they generally do not have access to electricity, wifi, or modern plumbing. Instead, they offer the chance to relax, unplug, and fully experience nature! You'll have the entire campsite to yourself, as you'll be the only Campers enjoying this piece of paradise.
Each campsite includes a 10'x12' safari-style canvas tent on a raised platform, and you'll find one queen bed or a queen-size bunk bed inside (each site is different, see photos for the exact setup). Larger groups can also use the extra 5-person pop-up dome tent that’s provided (you’re welcome to bring your own camping gear too). You'll also have a 6-ft picnic table, outdoor fire pit, 2 Tentrr Adirondack chairs, and a heating source to keep you warm and toasty at night.
What you should bring:
-S'mores supplies & any food you'd like to eat
-A cooler to keep your grub from spoiling
-Bedding and pillows
-Lanterns and lighting
-Firewood for the campfire
-Water
Upon check out, you should leave-no-trace of your stay and be sure your campsite is returned to its natural glory! While Tentrr does not charge a cleaning fee, we do expect campsites to be left how they were found. After you check out, take everything you brought in and be sure to leave your trash at the designated location on the property.
If a CampKeeper submits an incident report after your stay that details evidence of trash or damage to the campsite or the CampKeeper’s property, Tentrr reserves the right to charge a minimum cleaning fee of $50. Just make sure to follow the Camper Manual posted at your campsite and you'll be set!
Toilets: Every campsite is equipped with a camp toilet (we call it the Tentrr Loo). This is a simple wooden box with a toilet seat and a bucket inside. Line the bucket with a CleanWaste bag supplied at the camp (or another appropriate plastic bag) prior to use. Afterwards, simply tie the bag up and place it in a trash bag. We got this idea from bathrooms used on NASA spaceships, and we've used the Tentrr Loo countless times ourselves- don't worry!
Showers: Every Signature campsite comes with a Coleman Sun Shower. The sun shower has a reservoir that holds up to 5 gallons of water, potentially enough for multiple showers. It's constructed of heat-locking material that warms the water when it's left in the sun, even on cool days.
Tentrr Extras:
These are other amenities, services, or activities that may be provided by your CampKeeper for an additional fee. Please let us know in advance if you'd like to add these to your booking so that we can process payment. Availability of any Extras are not guaranteed and must be confirmed at least 24 hours prior to check-in.
Dozen fresh eggs - $5
We have free range hens on the farm. We will provide you with a dozen eggs - that will be waiting for you at camp when you arrive. More can be purchased as needed.
Bin of firewood - $10/day
Rubbermaid bin of seasoned dry firewood. One bin for each day of your stay. More can be purchased as needed.
Fresh Flowers - $5

Other Things to Note:
We have three campsites total... All sites are along the Wallenpaupack Creek within walking distance of each other. Each camp site is secluded. No loud music or partying. Quiet hours after 9 pm. All pets must remain at campsite and on leash. Please respect the privacy of other campers, the campkeepers home/barn and neighbors to the farm.
Interaction with Guests:
In the age of social distancing, isolated time can still be quality time - especially when you’re unplugged and out in nature - and we want you to know that the Tentrr team and our hosts are working together to make sure you have a safe and relaxing experience. Our hosts have been doing a great job ensuring our campsites are clean and spotless for your arrival. We ask that you do your part as well - maintain social distancing, clean up after yourselves, and leave no trace - so that everyone in our camping communities can enjoy these cherished outdoor spaces.
To limit the potential impact of community spread during the Covid-19 pandemic, we are encouraging our campers and hosts to adopt self-check in procedures whenever possible. To make self check-in easy, Tentrr provides a map to your site and driving directions in an email sent out a few days before your reservation. Please refer to this guide to get to your campsite. As a reminder, it is good practice to give your host a head's up on your estimated arrival time a few days beforehand. If you need any assistance, you can reach out to your host through the contact information provided in your confirmation email.
