Glamping offers us the perfect balance of old-fashioned camping and luxury. Living in Pittsburgh means we have access to a wide range of glamping sites, too, including private spots that are perfect when we’re craving some peace and quiet among nature. When you check into the tiny house at Pittsburgher Highland Farm near Pittsburgh, you’ll enjoy many of the comforts of home while being off-grid.
Just about a 45-minute drive from downtown Pittsburgh, Highland House at Pittsburgher Highland Farm in Mount Pleasant promises a one-of-a-kind glamping experience.
However, you must be prepared to live off-grid, and that means no wifi. Electricity is solar-powered; the heat is propane-powered, and the toilet is compost.
You'll have plenty of water from the cistern. However, you'll definitely want to take advantage of the bottled water for drinking and the provided jugs of tap water for cooking.
To reach the cozy loft bed, you'll have to climb up a ladder. You'll have plenty of space to sprawl out for a relaxing night's sleep.
Or kick back and relax on the deck that overlooks the tiny pond. You'll be staying on a working farm, so you'll also see Scottish Highland Cattle, chickens, and even a few beehives.
During your stay, explore some of the 140 acres. Hiking, biking, walking, and sled riding are all popular activities on the farm. You'll also be within easy driving distance of New Stanton and Greensburg.
