Weekend Trip to Take a Hike on a Wild side! Camping

Beautiful location, very secluded. We loved it there.

Weekend Trip to Farmhouse Gallery & Gardens

We were warmly greeted when we arrived, and treated with kindness like old friends the entire weekend. It’s a beautiful location, with an idyllic lily pad pond and captivating serene spots to rest in every direction. The grass was cut nicely on our site, and to allow us easy hiking around the bison pasture and goats. Curious peacocks followed us about. The barn swallows swooped and stole goose feathers and blooming dandelion. And I witnessed a bison stampede, only so briefly, when I suspect they thought I was planning to feed them. After which they returned to peaceful grazing. I can’t say enough to share how much we enjoyed this retreat. Thank you Pat for sharing your Walden Pond with us.

4 nights at Parker Farms

Oh my gosh! What a perfect, perfect place for us to stay at during Merlefest. Lance was super kind, helpful and informative. The field was spectacularly beautiful and peaceful. Minimal leveling needed for our 26' travel trailer. Easy access to our site. The tripod doggoe even stopped by to welcome us. And somehow, somehow, we managed to even get a doordash delivery in the middle of a field with no house number. Lol. We loved it here. Would def 10/10 recommend staying here for any event Wilkesboro'ish!!!

Weekend Trip to TangleWood Creekside Campsites

The campsite “Buckeye Bank” was absolutely gorgeous. The grounds were very well kept, and the cleanliness of the porta potties was a very nice added bonus. The site was secluded, but easy to find. Communication with the host was quick and extremely helpful. Blair was a huge help in helping me pick the appropriate size campsite for our group and vehicles. I would love to camp here again and would highly recommend to anyone visiting the Linville area.

5 nights at Parker Farms

Lance has a beautiful string of campsites set out along a pretty stream. Lots of privacy and dark quiet nights. Friendly people

Weekend Trip to Remote Mountain Camping Platform

What a beautiful setting!! The site looks exactly as pictured, but the view is even prettier in person. The platform and fire pits were nice amenities, and we enjoyed being so immersed in nature. Would highly recommend & hope to visit again soon!!

Weekend Trip to Take a Hike on a Wild side! Camping

The spot is so beautiful and we felt like the only people in the world! Adil kindly provided us with bedding when we forgot ours at him. He’s a great host and we very much enjoyed our stay

Weekend Trip to Blue Ridge Ranch

We boondocked beside the stream. Beautiful views of the hillside, and the babbling brook was like music. Nanette, Troy, and Will were great hosts.

4 nights at Mountain RV Pads Full Hookup

Wonderful , private site on a beautiful property. Janet and her husband greeted us when we arrived. We were in town for MerleFest so we didn’t get to spend much time at the campsite, but hopefully we will be back and can explore the property.

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

It was a great quiet place very enjoyable time with people not alot of insects either wasnt getting bitten alot or anything really just had a great time and honestly a great spot though the entrance at night is pretty difficult to see a little light on the sign or something might help lol

Weekend Trip to TangleWood Creekside Campsites

Love the site! We decided to go last minute and it was super easy and quick to reserve and pay. The indications on how to get there easy to follow. The site was clean and spacious. Just far enough from the next site to have privacy. Our dog loved to play in the creek (us too, we even did a cold “plunge” sitting with water to our armpits). Porta Potty were super clean. Definately recommand!

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

It was beautiful, had great amenities, and I felt very safe. However, the campsites were too close to each other.

Weekend Trip to TangleWood Creekside Campsites

We loved our experience at Blair’s campground! Campsites weren’t super close to each other which was nice, it made us feel like we were alone in the woods. We stayed in the brand new safari tent, and it was very comfortable. Nice handmade furniture and the mattress that was very comfortable. The deck/porch was the star of the show, that’s where we hang out most of the time. We’ll definitely be back soon!

Weekend Trip to TangleWood Creekside Campsites

Fantastic site at a fantastic campground. Blair has thoughtfully carved out some wonderful sites on his property. Very private and isolated from each other! Our site was right on the creek. There was clearly some storm damage but things are cleaned up and in lovely shape. We had a teardrop so didn't use the tent pads but I couldn't help remarking about how great they were! Very level! Getting across the creek was fine but will say the photo doesn't portray the incline into/up out of the creek. It's a decent grade you want to be prepared for. We did it pulling a teardrop so it's doable! Communication was great. We'll be back in the fall!

2 nights at Starlight Hills

Such a beautiful property and so well-designed! Even better than the photos convey. Each yurt, along with the cabin, offers its own gorgeous, unique view and level of separation from other sites. The tent sites probably offer the most privacy if that’s what you’re after. The vista from the picnic/BBQ area is also so beautiful and peaceful. The amount of work the owners have put into their campground is very evident, and I’m grateful they share it with the public. Less than a half hour to South Mountains state park which has begun its phased re-opening post-Helene (hooray!!). Definitely hope to return someday soon!

3 nights at The Human Spirit

I've stayed here twice now and will always come back any chance I get. It's a beautiful spot and peaceful.

1 night at Starlight Hills

Great campground! I am come out for the meteor shower. Got scared about clouds by the night sky stayed clear for most of the night. I stahed at site 5 which was nice because it right across from the overlook.

Weekend Trip to Take a Hike on a Wild side! Camping

We loved this site, the area, and the amenities- it was a great camping experience and cannot wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to joyville, camping site on elk creek

Camping by the creek was wonderful, and the deck was a lovely spot to read and listen to the birds. Truly peaceful. My dog loved the trails and splashing in the water! I'd love to come back and jump in the swimming hole on a hot day! Thank you Dianne 🩷

Creeping Thyme Forest

7 sites · RVs, Tents75 acres · Abingdon, VA

Primitive, open, country road camping. (Primitive means there is nothing at the campsites except a space to camp. Open means you can camp anywhere on the land that is available. Country road means you might hear cars or trucks go by, but it is not a heavily traveled road.) Nestled between small mountain ranges, on a south-facing slope. Adjacent to mountain stream. Fishing pond. Wooded and open sites available. Rough gravel road loops around camping areas. Generally a high-clearance vehicle is recommended, unless you feel adventurous. Some campers have noted dogs barking at night. The campsites are roughly mown a few times per year--not like your lawn. Prior camping experience recommended. We are close to a Volunteer Fire Department--if there is an emergency (rare), you may hear sirens. Bathroom with hot showers and flush toilet.
