The property was just as expected. Yes the roosters and vehicles were heard but you got used to it. We had several ducks enjoying the pond in the early mornings. A couple of deer crossed the field between the barn and the roadway early Saturday morning. Several Bass were caught in the pond at the far end near the little pond. The dogs enjoyed a refreshing swim in the pond. We had a great time at the fire pit with our family overlooking the pond.
We thank our host Wendy/Adam for sharing their property with us, we had a Great Time! Small suggestion would be to have clear numbers on the mail box on both sides. Thanks Again, Dewayne!

This was our second time at By the Water. Wonderful, secluded place in the country that you have all to your own. There's plenty of space for a group of 6 with tents or car-tents. I can't really comment on whether it would accommodate an RV, but it probably would. You'd need to contact the owner on that. It's only 2-3 miles to a general store if you need something which is very convenient. Lots of space to do a little hiking or fishing and though it's near a state highway you don't really hear the traffic and at night when you're sleeping there's very little traffic anyway. The roosters across the road make more noise than the traffic but is not a real issue, especially if you sleep with foam ear plugs. The owners, Wendy and Adam, are great hosts and are generally very accommodating with special requests. They answer you emails very quickly.

I loved the land. The view was beautiful from the tent site. We caught and released many fish which was a plus. Even though it rained most of the weekend we had a great time overall. I loved that they also have persimmon trees.

The family enjoyed the weekend camping at Wendy and Adam's site. Nice pond and property. Property was easy to find and is accessible with an average sedan. It's a nice spot.

Peaceful spot with a tranquil pond for catch and release fishing! My girlfriend and I had a relaxing time with wonderful sunsets. Easy to access and the property was well maintained and freshly mowed.

We really loved this place. Very peaceful and beautiful overlook of the pond. We're so glad that we found this place and the owners were very helpful with all my questions because this is my first time using hipcamp.

Our grand boys enjoyed the fishing and the large meadow where they were able to play golf and baseball. It was peaceful and the site had a nice view of pond. Our only complaint was that the pond had a lot of high weeds all around, making it tough to wind the fish in, but this didn’t stop from catching plenty of fish.

Great location! Felt very private down around the pond. Easy to find + fun to explore.

The fishing is out of this world! Our group caught multiple large bass including one that was 8 lbs. We heard chickens from a neighbor’s property for most of the night and some road noise although it feels very private. Will return.

Beautiful place, was able to drive up in my front wheel drive but only barely! If it's rained in the past week, you'll need 4wd or AWD or something to make it all the way up by car

This was a perfect getaway in the Triad. It was easy to access (a short walk from a parking spot in my subcompact car, with campsite-adjacent parking if you have AWD), the amenities (platform, solar lights, outhouse, fire pit) were stellar, and the creekside setting is gorgeous. The canopy was so lush that the light morning rain didn't even reach us. The host met us and made sure we had everything we needed, and then we got to enjoy the serenity on our own. Would absolutely stay here again.

We loved this spot! It was so spacious and we felt so secluded (even though the road wasn’t far) the trees did a great job of keeping privacy! There were tons of fish ( my 5 yr old caught about 15 brim, catfish, bass, etc.) we made sure to catch and release but it was a great family trip. Definitely recommend and plan on visiting again.

We really enjoyed our trip. The view was amazing. It felt really secluded even though you can see the road if you're up by the parking area. We lost signal just moments before pulling up so a little nerve wracking but it was so much fun we almost didn't miss not having phone service. Kids had an amazing time and really enjoyed having water access.

I had the pleasure of staying at Marty’s property by the creek, and it was an incredible experience! The spot was perfect – a well-kept platform for the tent, a picnic table, a cooking table, and a comfortable wooden chair by the fire pit. Our dogs had the time of their lives running freely, and the entire setting was peaceful and beautiful. Marty was a fantastic host, offering helpful tips and ensuring we had everything we needed. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped getaway. We can’t wait to come back!

Marty’s setup is amazing! The platform is built right along the creek, so it was perfect to sleep to the sounds of the water. Every detail is so thoughtful- the string lights even provided enough light that I didn’t need my lanterns, and ended up placing the down near the rocks so my dog could wander down at night. There was a spot or two along the drive to the site that looked like it could have been some trouble if the path was really wet, but the host even met me and directed me where to go. We can’t wait to come back!
