What makes hawks nest special?
At Hawks Nest Cumberland, we want every guest to leave feeling they've discovered a true hidden gem. Our aim is for you to describe your stay as peaceful, quiet, and a refreshing escape from crowded campgrounds. Here, you'll find ample space to breathe, a warm welcome, and a genuine farm experience rather than a commercial one. Imagine open land, stunning sunsets, and the chance to truly unplug and relax.
You'll notice the personal touch – this isn't just another place to park your RV; it's a growing farm built with care. Horse owners particularly appreciate finding a rare spot where they can bring their horses, ride freely, and stay comfortably. Most importantly, we want you saying: "We'll definitely be back," "You need to check this place out," and "It feels like a hidden gem."
Preparing for your stay
To ensure a smooth and enjoyable visit to Hawks Nest Cumberland, it’s helpful to know what to expect and what to bring. Our 50-acre farm offers a peaceful, rural environment perfect for slowing down and connecting with nature. We emphasize a relaxed, outdoor experience rather than a crowded commercial venue.
What should I bring for a comfortable stay?
Pack anything you’d typically bring for a campground or outdoor adventure. This includes chairs, personal lighting, bug spray, and anything for your personal comfort. Remember, you'll be on open land, not a full resort.
What about RV specific preparations?
RV guests should arrive prepared for boondock-style stays, meaning your water, power, and waste should be managed unless other arrangements have been made. We recommend checking the weather forecast and being ready for natural ground conditions.
What should horse owners know?
If you're bringing horses, please bring their feed, tack, and any panels or tie setups you might need. Ensure your horses are manageable in a new environment and are supervised at all times for their care and safety.
Are pets welcome?
Pet owners should bring leashes if needed and cleanup supplies. We kindly ask that all pets are friendly around people and other animals to maintain a harmonious environment.
What do event guests need to know?
Event guests should coordinate with us ahead of time regarding setup needs, parking, timing, and any equipment you plan to bring. This ensures everything runs smoothly for your special occasion at Hawks Nest Cumberland.
What is the overall philosophy for guests?
Most importantly, come ready to slow down, respect the land and our animals, and enjoy the quiet farm setting. Hawks Nest is about space, fresh air, and a relaxed experience – not a crowded campground or commercial venue.
Enjoying your time at hawks nest
Once you've settled in, we encourage you to embrace the tranquility of Hawks Nest Cumberland. Many guests enjoy walking the land, relaxing at their RV site, watching the spectacular sunsets, or riding their horses through our open fields. It's all about enjoying the quiet farm setting at your own pace. Designated areas will be available for walking and riding, ensuring everyone can safely enjoy the spacious property.
Fishing in our pond is a unique opportunity available on select days and during specific hours, and may require host approval or supervision. This practice helps us protect the pond, its fish, and our equipment, while ensuring all guests have a safe and positive experience. Details on fishing availability will be shared prior to your arrival or at check-in. Hawks Nest is designed for peaceful outdoor enjoyment – exploring, riding, relaxing, and connecting with nature – rather than structured entertainment. Guests who appreciate open land and a slower pace tend to get the most out of their time here.
