Very nice camp site/ partially private. Very short walk to common area with view. About 6 minutes downhill walk to spa. Also large.

1 night at Starlight Hills

Starlight is a remote gem. There had been rain so it was a bit muddy, but a very unique camp ground. The Spa was a delight. Hot tub and sauna under the stars. I really enjoyed the relaxation. Tent camping a small trailers would be best when using the smaller camp sites. There are unique circular tents on platforms available as well as a beautiful overlook spot with hammocks. Great for group camping!

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

Everything was well maintained and clean. Tent site 6 was nice and secluded. Great view from the grill area.

Starlight hills is a true gem! We enjoyed our campsite which was secluded and had a beautiful a view. The on-property trail was an added bonus!

2 nights at Starlight Hills

1 night at Starlight Hills

The place was beautiful and the view was amazing. We were there on a Sunday night and had the whole place to ourselves with no other guests. The hammocks were great and the hiking trail was super fun to do with my dog and my 6 year old.

Weekend Trip to Gold River / camp + cabins

We stayed for a weekend trip, and originally booked the bell tent. They were expecting some rough weather and upgraded us to the riverside cabin since they couldn't put the tents up. We loved the cabin and listening to the river while we slept. The room was cleaner than most hotels we've stayed in, and the bed was very comfortable. We definitely plan on making this a regular spot. The bathrooms were clean and the showers were nice and hot.

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

Great place to camp! The property is fun to explore with stations for dishes and drinking water. There are some nice trails to walk and a great overlook of the valley and mountains with hammocks, picnic tables, and a BBQ. I met William on checkin and he was very polite and personable. Would definitely recommend this!

1 night at Starlight Hills

We had a great time. Convenient location in relation to Charlotte and Asheville. The showers were a really nice plus. We’ll be staying again!

Weekend Trip to Adin`s river cabin

Adin is an awesome host and very accommodating. The cabin is just perfect and the privacy is unmatched. If you want to unplug and just enjoy, this is the place to be. Our doggo had so much fun running around and exploring.

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

This is the perfect blend of comfort (real bed and pillows, tent setup done) and rustic camping (portapotties and water pumps). We enjoyed the site with a new, clean picnic table and large fire pit. The fairy lights around the site were a great touch. The Spa is a cute little private area with a fabulous and quiet hot tub and dry sauna. It was a little chilly that night but they have an outdoor fire stand which was perfect. The only negative is the ties to secure the tent are right at the entrance to the tent, so it was a minor bending wiggle to get in and out of the tent.

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

Easy to find, great signage throughout campground, friendly & responsive host. Would camp here again!

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

Views are amazing! We will continue to come back. My daughter and I have camped here for a couple of years now.

2 nights at Starlight Hills

This was a perfect spot for our needs. I went camping with my 3 year old daughter. Great view of the sky, which was perfect for the lunar eclipse. Tons of available firewood near the campsite.

2 nights at Spacious Skies Peach Haven Campground

There is a pool and other things for kids and families to do. It's not a fancy place but it's nice. The bathrooms are clean with showers. The only thing I see negative is the RV sites are very close together but I am a tent camper so it didn't affect me. The prices are very reasonable.

1 night at Starlight Hills

Absolutely loved it. Super clean. Perfect place to BBQ with a great view of the forest and mountains. Campfire looked amazing under a clear night sky. Indoor tent heater that kept us warm all night. Convenient store within a 3 minute in case you need some essentials. You really feel out in the middle of nowhere which makes it even better. Hopefully i can visit again this summer.

Weekend Trip to Starlight Hills

It was a great new campground with much potential. The showers, very breezy but other then att it was amazing. Views are spectacular.

Adin`s river cabin

1 site · Lodging10 acres · Casar, NC

My property consists of a ridge running east to west with the access road running along the south border. the land slopes up to the ridge for about 300 feet, and then down to the river for about 800 feet. The south side of the ridge has a small pond close to the road. The rest is pasture, and an orchard and small vineyard. The north side of the ridge is old growth timber, and shady and cool. The two cabins are along the river. One is perched on a ridge over looking the river and the other is right on the river. The swimming hole is 30 feet from the lower cabin. There is room for a couple campsites along the river also. The south side of the ridge was a cotton farm decades ago, but was covered in timber when I bought it 12 years ago. The north side has been in timber for the known history of the property.

Cherry Bounce Adventure Company

9 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents300 acres · Bostic, NC

Located on family land granted by King Charles in 1685 we have worked hard to restore and refurbish in a sustainable way, using the trees and supplies from the land that they sit on. Hand crafting doors and furniture the way the family did it 140 plus years ago. The history of this place is deep, even the nails for the cabin and farm house that is now the clubhouse were hand crafted by my great grandfather in his blacksmith shop, along with the wagon wheels, horse shoes, misc farm utensils etc... there was no running out to Lowes to pick up what was needed, it was made in the blacksmith shop. We love riding ATV's and SXS's on the trails on the mountains that I grew up on with my 3 brothers, we hope the people who visit and experience the mountains feel about them the way we do, we love em. We like to give riding tours and talking about the mountain and its challenges. We named the park from the famous product that was created here during prohibition, Cherry Bounce Moonshine. You can visit some of the original still sites on the mountain, of course they are not operational today. About the adventure co side, We are an adrenaline pumping ATV and SXS park with 25+ miles of mountainous trails at four skill levels; Green (Easy), Blue (Challenging), Black Diamond (Very Difficult) and Double Black Diamond (Most Difficult). You can bring your own ATV or SXS or rent one of ours. We have cabins & camp sites that are accessed by ATV or SXS on the mountains as well as hiking or biking. We do not allow jeeps, trucks or dirt bike motorcycles on the mountain, just ATV's and SXS vehicles.
