The property RoundStone camping area rests upon has been in our family since 1877. My Great Great Grandfather purchased the property to farm and build an Ochre Mill. The mill was used to grind a red colored dirt called Ochre. It was ground with large round stones which were turned in the mill buy a water turbine. The ground Ochre was than transported buy railcar to Philadelphia to be used for paint pigments. The mill burned down in the late 30s.

Ochre pits can still be seen while walking the  many trails here at RoundStone. Our family stayed on and continued to farm and maintain the land. My father also ran a very well know fishing club here for many years. Now that I have taken an early retirement, I am going to give the camp resort a try. Im sure you will love your stay here.
