Looking for camp or property

Can anyone help me find a camp or property preferably no more than 1 acre within 2.5 hrs from zip 15012 ?  Don't want to be in a campground.  Any info is highly appreciated.

    geenhead55, you should just say Belle Vernon, Pa then give some borders i.e. south of I-80, etc, etc. Might help people with their advice to you.

    This is a fishing forums, not a cheap way to find a piece of ground. Try a google search there are plenty of other websites to will be of much better help. I can't believe no one else stepped and said this.

    And maybe a good resource to find a nice camp.  Sorry that this was such an inconvenience.  Next time don't click on the topic !  Thank you to the other guys that were very helpful.

    I will be selling a 1800sqft. camp/home across the road from the allegheny river within the next few months. Its located in the village of kennerdell about 5mi north of 80. Everything is brand new, gutted to the studs and rebuilt. Great neighborhood, most houses in the village are camps. Will be selling in the $130,000 range. Village has its own natual gas company, public water, and has armstrong cable.

    Greenhead, No big deal that you put your thread here. Just put it under off topic board next time. People put stuff in wrong places all the time. I don't know if you want a place to fish,hunt,etc. I had a place up Pymatuning that I sold this sping. It is a nice area and alot of camps for sale. 20 hp. lake. Good goose hunting in the area. Conneaut Lake not far away. About 40 minutes to Erie. Good camp hunting!

    My Wife said, if I go fish'n one more time, she'll leave me! God, I'm going to miss her!

    I've been looking for a cheap camp for years without any luck. I've been trying to find something for practically nothing because that's basically my net worth. My kids will be grown soon and maybe I can save some money after that. It's getting tough around these parts though with about 1/2 the people I know layed off or out of work completly.

    Check the Sheriff sale list in the county where you wish to buy . You can call the clerk and see what they have .

    Filled the tank and drove from light to dark around Marienville yesterday.  Lots of camps that haven't been used for years but not too many for sale.  One decent one but price was way high.  I am now narrowing my search to Elk county.  My friend has a camp on Medix Run and I love it.  Anyone know of anything for sale up in that area ?

    If you're only looking at property with a "for sale" sign in the yard you'll never find a great price. Find a piece that you like and do the research to find the owners and write a letter, you might be surprised. Maybe some of those camps that look like they haven't been used in years. Some people never think of selling until somebody asks.

    bulldog1 is right. Find a place you like go to the county courthouse and research the owner and make an offer. The worst they can say is "no". That is how I found my 2 ac. at Pymatuning. I started at the township supervisor's office looking into who hasn't paid their tax and sewage bill when I found someone I contacted them and made an offer to get 1 ac. then I went to the Crawford Co. court house and researched who owned the ac. next to the 1st one. I made an offer and that was that. It took some leg work, but I ended up with 2ac. for less than going through some real estate agent who wants his cut.
