Weekend Trip to Deerfield Farms

This is a lovely quiet get away . The owners are relaxed and very friendly. The showers, bathrooms etc are clean and well run. We had a great time hiking and roasting marshmallows around the campfire.

Weekend Trip to Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

James was an attentive host and his responses were very quick. The campsite is awesome, clean, and in a very safe location. We enjoyed our camping trip here and will be back again for sure!

Weekend Trip to Serenity on the Saluda

We loved our camping experience on John’s land. It was peaceful, beautiful. We had all the privacy and seclusion we wanted while at the same time, John was available if we needed anything. we camped on the hill top and at first were bummed that we couldn’t be at the Riverside, but once we got to our campsite, we loved it. We could still hear the river and had a beautiful view of the sunrise. would definitely stay again.

3 nights at Serenity on the Saluda

EXCELLENT property. Quiet. The host, John, is friendly and accommodating. Directions are accurate. Property/sites are easy to get to. Both tent sites are directly on the river and spacious. Plenty of trees for shade. If you are looking to fish directly from your site- chose Tent/RV site or there are fishing opportunities further down the bank. I will be returning!

10 nights at Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

We camped for 10 nights. Very quiet other than the birds singing. We enjoyed visiting with our children and grandchildren who all live in the area. Our host, James, was very nice and accommodating. Our campsite was a mix of sun and shade. The kids had a great time kayaking and fishing in Big Creek which borders part of the property. It was like camping in the middle of the woods, but close to the little town of Saluda. Thank you James. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Weekend Trip to Serenity on the Saluda

The site was scenic right by the river and we'll set for a couple of tents. Awesome views and quiet surroundings. No camp sites were directly adjacent so you won't feel like you're in a group camping environment (like state parks). Super easy to get to. Thanks and I look forward to visiting again.

Weekend Trip to Deerfield Farms

Thomas was a more than wonderful host! He was very helpful and detailed with instructions on how to get to the camp sites. My family and I enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this peaceful place to others.

Weekend Trip to Leach Homestead campground

The property was beautiful, fish in the ponds, Victor was a great host, very accommodating. 10/10 great spot for a camping trip!

Weekend Trip to Serenity on the Saluda

We had a fantastic weekend at the tent site. It was absolutely beautiful! Not too close to the tent/RV site so we still had plenty of privacy. Outhouse is literally a few feet away and super convenient. Well kept and very clean! The tent site itself is on the river and has an amazing view but you cannot access the water from the site because it’s quite a steep climb down the river bank- however you can access the water by walking just a few feet down the gravel road and that’s where you can put boats in the water also. (The other tent/RV site does have water access) We rented a canoe and went for a paddle which we enjoyed. On a clear night the stars are a sight! We had the best time just enjoying the views and the peace and quiet making family memories. John is a great host who did come down and introduce himself and offered assistance if needed. Definitely recommend!

Weekend Trip to 3 Creeks Camp and Nature Preserve

Another great trip to the Creekhouse! This is our kids favorite place and they talked about it nonstop since our first visit, so we had to return. We can’t wait to come back again soon, Damon is a great host. This place is magical. So glad we discovered it through hipcamp

Weekend Trip to Smith Farm

Incredible space, perfect for camping, relaxing, and recharging your energy! 4 options for where to set up. Very beautiful and convenient to access. Couldn’t have been more impressed.

Weekend Trip to Broad River Retreat

The view of Broad River blew my mind! So scenic, peaceful and very private. Gorgeous sunrise views over the river. Unit was perfect, loved the AC and power. Hot water shower was available which was great after a day of kayaking on the river. My pup Obie San enjoyed the freedom... This was the perfect weekend getaway for me. I can't wait to go back again!

2 nights at Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

This campground is kept in absolutely beautiful condition. It was the perfect peaceful retreat! Thank you for a perfect stay!

1 night at Serenity on the Saluda

Nothing but nature. The sounds of birds and light water rapids was all that could be heard. Outhouse was sufficient. It’s nice that it’s off the road quite a bit. Feels very secluded. Plenty of room for a vehicle, tent, and anything else you want to set up. Right next to the river. Really good firewood. Pleasant stay. Will use again sometime.

1 night at Smith Farm

Super quiet and amazing campsite! We saw so much wildlife and the entrance in was quite cool!

1 night at Leach Homestead campground

I highly recommend Victor place. My family went there on a daddy daughter camping trip.The property is beautiful.The fishing is great and he was very helpful. My daughter said it was the best camping trip ever! Only issue we had was using the directions from this app, they were off a little. Found out through him that he also offers twenty dollar day fishing and will absolutely be taking him up on that. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Leach Homestead campground

3 Creeks Camp and Nature Preserve

14 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents10 acres · Anderson, SC

This Property was purchased by Grandfather in the 70s and then was passed to my Mother. In 2013 I decided to live life differently and start from the ground up building with natural materials and found materials. At that time I was fortunate enough to have the land passed to me and I started building a home for myself and to be close to my mothers home nearby. After achieving the basics I decided that the best use of this beautiful land was to create a place for people to relax and enjoy, a park like environment dedicated to preserving natural beauty and amplifying it through a permaculture lifestyle. 8 years later I am blown away at how far the dream has become a reality and love sharing my space with people from all over the country.
