Beacon Camping

We offer a quiet and serene country atmosphere. Our neighbors are Amish and Mennonite farmers, craftsmen and business owners. The Village of Intercourse is one of the oldest Amish communities and is just a short walk away. It offers over 100 merchants, including restaurants, galleries, museums, carriage rides, information centers, and quilt, furniture, and antique shops.
   
Pleasant drives along local picturesque rural roads will bring you to places like Bird-in-Hand, Strasburg, Ephrata, and Paradise. You'll find the Sight & Sound Millennium Theatre, the Strasburg Rail Road, Root's and Green Dragon farmers' markets, and many more shops, theatres, restaurants, museums, wineries, and tours.

Stay in the country and take day trips to Hershey, the outlets in Reading or visit historic Philadelphia and Gettysburg. (Local car rentals are available.)

*Please note that we do not offer any recreation, just a quiet, relaxed place to camp in a friendly farming village with great shopping and wholesome food.



Our Amish neighbors are real people going about their daily lives. During your visit, please provide them with the same privacy and respect as you would expect at your own home.

It would be appreciated if you would limit your photos to landscape and livestock.
