Meili Mtn - Tye River Waterfall
I liked that the area is private so you felt secluded. You can explore farther into the property and there’s a nice creek that runs through it with a small waterfall. The area where it is recommend you sleep is literally within throwing distance of the road, but after dark there’s only a handful of cars that drive by. I will say for $60 it seems pretty steep for what you get. Besides the wooden pallet to sleep on there’s a fire pit and that’s it. A picnic table or some chairs would be nice. The shed pictured is not for use. He does have these trail cameras around the property too, one of which is directly aimed at where you sleep. He does mention this and says you can cover them, but just seems kinda odd to need a camera aimed at where guest are going to sleep.

10/10
We loved our one-night stay here. The property is gorgeous and well maintained. We did a polar plunge in the waterfall pool in the morning as the fall foliage surrounded us. We would definitely return and recommend others to check it out!

Meili Mtn - Tye River Waterfall
Quiet holler, nestled along the Tye
Meili Mountain is a wonderfully situated property right next to the iconic Crabtree falls. I camped at the sight with the shed and had a great one-night stay surrounded by the changing autumn foliage. Would love to come back again.

Cool Spot to explore privately
Cool spot!! You can barely see the road from the campsite, however, there was hardly any cars/trucks going by. We decided to follow the river. Hiked/climbed up for over 2 hours! It was quite the adventure and maybe not the safest thing to do but we had a blast.
Absolutely no cell phone reception so we downloaded some scary movies to watch in the tent.
Drive to Devils backbone brewery for dinner one of the nights, the hot wings were delicious.
The flattest spot for your tent is going to be
the platform in front of the shed. Bring decent pads.

We had a great weekend camping at Jim’s property! It is beautiful, private, and conveniently located right across the Tye River. He was very responsive and answered all my questions. Highly recommend a visit!
