Notes from the host
Peaceful by Pig
Summary:
Enjoy this private campsite on a beautiful 105 acre property. We are also just 20 minutes north of Reading and 5 miles from a local Cabelas. Minutes away from local restaurants if you're tired of cooking meals on the grill. See the old ways of farming and the beauty of Berks county while hiking through the fields. This is the ideal campsite for those of your looking to disconnect from your daily routine and recharge your batteries.
When you arrive at Peaceful by Pigeon Creek you will get a warm welcome from your hosts Danny and Nancy.
We go the extra mile to make your stay all that you hoped it would be. It's your home away from home, where you will have the freedom to make the time here relaxing, enjoyable and memorable. You can do this in the quiet and secluded setting by the peaceful trickle that comes from Pigeon Creek. You also have the peaceful wooded surroundings to just breathe in the fresh air or go for a hike.
You'll have the time to relax and watch your children or your pets playing in the Creek. Don't hesitate to join them by dipping your own toes in the water. Come and build some memories in the heart of Berks County where there is also plenty of open space and farmland too
Plenty of local trails and parks will keep you entertained throughout your whole stay. Or just kick back read a book and enjoy the beautiful views this campsite has to offer. The Pinnacle offers breathtaking views of this local landscape!
The Space:
A secluded campsite just 6 minutes from Cabelas and less than 2 hours from Philadelphia.
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.
Firewood/kindling/firestarter - $10
Per bundle.
Sheets and Pillows - $15
Available for 2 beds to fit the Tentrr beds. You will need to provide your own bedding for the extra tent.
Other Things to Note:
Don't leave too much food left out you might attract the raccoons. But there is plenty of quiet surroundings to go for a short walk. This is also a good central location to camp at and plan your day trips with many activities around Berks County.

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.
