Lookout Camping Pod
A Solo 1-Room non-electric Pod Cabin for the forest loving adventurer who is looking for a quiet space in the woods to find peace. The Lookout Pod cabin is dedicated to a beloved Outdoorsman who was part of the Camp Earth Connection family. It sits on the edge of a hill looking over the wildlife ponds through a forest of hardwoods and pines. It has a single bed, a lantern, a small desk, and dresser. It is adjacent to miles of trails in the Hammond Hill State Forest. CEC and the cabins are an alcohol and drug free facility.
Access to hot showers, bathrooms ,high speed WiFi and other amenities at the main camp, a short walk from the cabin. The Lookout Pod is a unique and special wooden cabin for the solo outdoor adventurer. It has a rechargeable Lantern and fan, and for those who need to stay connected, WiFi is accessible on the deck and high speed WiFi is available at the main camp.
The Pod Cabins are a part of Camp Earth Connection (CEC), a small woodland campground, located on a beautiful parcel of land with 62 acres of forests and fields surrounded by the Hammond Hill State Forest. With just 18 cabins/campsites in total, each site is unique and offers different levels of privacy and solitude. Camp Earth Connection offers individuals and families a chance to connect with each other and nature in a peaceful beautiful setting. Alcohol and drugs are prohibited to ensure this peaceful atmosphere and to allow folks to find serenity through our natural environment.

Rainy, but good host
Good property, nice trails nearby. 1st time doing this alone at this place. Cabins well kept, host very organized and attentive to guests. Little cold but host offered extra blankets if needed. Overall nice place if you want some quiet time outdoors. Coffee/tea readily available. Host not available after 8pm.
