Our native trees and crops could easily be devastated by outside diseases or pests that are carried in firewood. We offer firewood for sale from our farm (delivered to your site for no additional fee). You do NOT have to purchase it prior to your arrival, and we have large tubs too!
Our STORE offers firewood, meats, eggs, Tallow, lard (both rendered right here!), drinks, Amish ice cream and jams/jellies/preserves, hammocks, hammock chairs, smoked dog bones, soaps (made right here), rentals of: cast iron cookware, a tent, Coleman stove, fishing poles, ... and MUCH MORE!

Quiet, Restorative, Nature-Immersed Escape
Set on private acreage near the Smoky Mountains, this is a place to slow down, reconnect, and settle into a simpler rhythm of life.
Perfect for couples, solo retreats, and those seeking intentional rest. Six Fields is nestled in a quiet mountain valley surrounded by 3 of the Southeast’s most treasured forests: Pisgah National Forest, Nantahala National Forest, and the nearby Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Our land sits in a small farming community known for its peaceful, remote character—yet the town of Waynesville is only 20 minutes away.
The land is classic Appalachian terrain: towering hardwoods, moss-covered boulders, a flowing creek, and rich plant life that shifts beautifully with the seasons. Six Fields also sits along The Rattler, a legendary scenic drive loved by motorcycle and driving enthusiasts.
With little surrounding development, the night skies here remain dark and clear—perfect for stargazing. Our drinking and shower water comes directly from the mountain, adding to the fresh, natural experience of staying on the land.
Welcome to your private mountain hideaway—This is not just a place to sleep, but a space to reset your nervous system and return to simplicity; a place where mornings are slow, nights are quiet, and time begins to stretch in the best way.
MORE THAN A STAY: Six Fields is an evolving wellness-oriented property rooted in nature, simplicity, and intentional living
- Depending on timing, guests may occasionally see quiet land stewardship or ongoing improvements around the property.
- A peaceful, shared connection to the land with minimal other guests
- Opportunities to slow down and reconnect with the natural pace of the land
LOCATION: Secluded Yet Accessible. While the property feels tucked away, you’re still within reach of:
- Numerous scenic hikes and waterfalls
- Many mountain towns and local food spots
- Outdoor adventures and exploration
Spend the day exploring mountain towns, waterfalls, and trails, then return to the quiet of the land.
GUEST ACCESS: Guests will access the property via a private road leading into Six Fields Wellness Lodge. You’ll have access to all 50-acres of the property (w/ a signed liability waiver).

Our guests love staying here: "This was our first time using Hipcamp and we couldn’t have been happier! Candace was great at communicating and quick to respond to our questions. Site 1 was perfect. We had so much room for just the two of us and the water access was great for our dogs to swim. Plus it was so quiet, we’ll probably never go back at state park camping! Thanks for everything and look forward to visiting again!"

Bald Eagles have been seen on April 27th, 2026! The views are hypnotic, looking down and out over the continental divide. Good morning, and sunsets can be seen from the same spot. Your car is parked within feet of your deck, so Car Campers and experienced campers can enjoy. Designed with campers and dogs in mind. The deck is large (384 square feet) with a tin roof. Some are two-thirds, and some are one-third, depending on what one wants for tent size or sun exposure. (See pictures of each site/deck) Each deck features sun and rain curtains to help keep you comfortable in both sunny and rainy weather. Dogs enjoy a two-gate system that allows guests and dogs to be leash-free and away from the road. All dog owners know to pick up after their pets. The human Private Porta John is cleaned frequently. Lights and electrical outlets are 110V (3 prongs) for YOUR coffee pots, electric grills, mattress inflators, crockpots, electric blankets, fans, etc. I do not provide any electrical appliances, other than counter area lighting and low-level string lights, so one can see the night sky. PMany of my campers will "Pay it Forward" and leave coffee pots, hot plates, fans and such, so count yourself lucky to find a deck with them. I provide chairs, 5 gallons of fresh water in containers, a fickle solar shower, and a pop-up changing room, along with an assortment of camping supplies from dog bowls to antimicrobial. I provide various-size garbage bags to manage your garbage. Your parking area is next to the deck. Black Mountain’s tasty restaurants are 4 miles away, and All Trails is an excellent app for finding trails suited for your interests. Be respectful, please.
Private Glamping Decks with a view that pictures do not do justice. Private decks on a dead-end gravel road mean hopefully the sounds will only be of nature. The conveniences of electricity, porta john, water, chairs, table, roof, cleaning supplies, rain curtains, and astounding views have my Glampers coming back often. Designed with Dogs in mind with a two-gate system and no need for a leash when on the deck. Obnoxious, barking dogs are not welcome, so bring only controlled and well-socialized dogs. Help me keep it dog-friendly. Never block the road with a park car.

This 5-acre parcel was part of a larger 17-acre tract/cow pasture that was for sale in the spring of 2017. We had moved to this beautiful quiet country road the year before after spending 15 years in the hustle and bustle of West Asheville. When our neighbor put the land up for sale, we jumped at the chance to protect our view (we live across the street) and own another piece of the heaven we have come to call home. This land has a creek running through it, and is in a quiet, rural, residential area that is a mix of newcomers and families who have lived here for generations. The property has a secluded feel to it while being very conveniently located to the wonderful hiking, mountain biking, and trout fishing this area is famous for. We’re also very close to cycle shops, outfitters, groceries, restaurants, etc. We love it here and are excited to develop our plan for this space. We hope you will love it here too.

It includes hardwood forest, swamp, a beautiful swimming beach* on the Albemarle Sound - one of the largest freshwater sounds in the world-, acres of farmland, vegetable garden and perhaps the largest fig orchard for hundreds of miles around. The purpose of the Spruill Farm is to further environmental research, promote ecological education and sustainable practices, and provide access for the public to the ever-diminishing shoreline experience. Please enjoy the incredible sunsets and woodland views, while respecting the serenity of this unique gem on the inner-banks.
Wildlife on the property include Red Fox, River Otter, and 95 species of birds, including Bald Eagles (2 nests on the farm), nesting Osprey, Wood Ducks. Visit the 'Spruill Farm Conservation Project' on inaturalist(dot)org to see all 95 species, and upload any images from your observations.
Because it is a nature preserve, please read the guidelines and rules closely if you choose to book with us.
*Note: the shoreline changes with the wave action and the seasons. The beach is bigger in winter, smaller in summer. These changes make the Bobby Wilkins shoreline trail so beautiful- always changing.

We had a fantastic time on this property. There are only 13 camp sites, so you will never be too crowded. Only 3 sites were used during our stay. It is secluded and very peaceful. Lisa was a great host. She made sure we did not need anything, and then left us alone to enjoy our time. She is very kind, and takes a lot of pride in keeping the property well maintained. There are two porta potys for the campers and they are extremely clean. We definitely plan to visit again anytime we come back to North Carolina.

Richard was a wonderful host! I would definitely recommend staying at his camp sites. You can tell he worked hard to make it as private as possible. He even met up with us at the campsite and gave us a tour and showed us how the shower worked. He communicated with us before check in and even after leaving from the brief tour. He reached out to tell us if we need anything or recommendations and to adjust the water temperature just let him know, he’s not far. The grill was clean, the creek was wonderful. He recommended fishing spots nearby and activities! Even gave us spots to see elks! The church was not a bother I hardly noticed it not loud at all. The driveway is only used between you and the other campers or you if rent out both campsites to have an even more private stay for you and your family.

10/10 night. Hands down THE best camping experience ever. This place had everything you need as a foundation for camping. My son probably caught 30+ fish day one. It's clean, it's spacious, it has both a propane grill and a charcoal grill and not to mention a huge firepit with grates if you choose to cook on an open flame. Marshmallows forks, picnic table, two large swings, sandy ground for us tent sleepers and an added Porta John which I personally appreciated. Scott is amazing. The waterfall is fantastic (yes, go ahead and slide down). Absolutely the best.

Excellent stay at Honah Lee Farms. Brian’s son Mike was very welcoming and showed us to our site. The campsite was very quiet and secluded with a good shade. There is small river adjacent to the camp site which led to a small waterfall a short walk away. We hiked around the property and met a pair of miniature donkeys, which my kids loved. We kept our dog off leash the whole time, never ran into anyone else but felt safe and welcome the entire time in the property. Highly recommend checking it out!

Not only was this spot peaceful, quiet, and well maintained… the host went above and beyond to stop by and ensure we had everything we needed for a comfortable experience. I noticed andrew came to every new comer upon arrival and introduced himself to ensure the best possible camping experience. such a nice gesture and made us female campers feel safe knowing the host was so kind and would help if needed. The property was extremely dog friendly to our 3 off leash dogs and when other campers came close by we allowed the dogs to meet and ensure they could all get along and have a great time, We brought long leashes for our dogs but never needed them since the site and campers near by were all dog friendly. we will definitely be back, thank you Andrew!

We enjoyed our stay very much! The campground was quiet. Everyone we met was friendly. The campground hosts were great. Our campsite was right next to the creek and it was so relaxing. We were able to explore so much in the area. We would definitely camp there again.

We love camping right by the stream. The location is central to Brevard, Pisgah, Blue Ridge Parkway, Waynesville and so much more. We loved the area. The campgroup is quiet and laid back. The host was great and checked on our needs often.

Where to go
High Country & the Blue Ridge Parkway
The Blue Ridge Parkway passes overlooks, waterfalls, and campgrounds in the rugged High Country of western North Carolina as it swoops south from Virginia. Mount Mitchell State Park, Linville Gorge, and Grandfather Mountain are Instagram-pretty while hiking and mountain biking trails beg to be explored.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park & Cherokee
Stories about Cherokee leaders and 19th-century mountain families add historic context to the mountain-and-forest views in the deep-green Smokies. Feeling social? Hit the welcoming Nantahala Outdoor Center for all-sorts of wild adventures, from rafting to ziplining. The Appalachian Trail runs along the North Carolina and Tennessee border in the national park then veers south through Nantahala National Forest.
Asheville & the Foothills
An easy detour from the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville is a mountain town that’s going places. The craft beer situation is out of control—more than 30 breweries!—while innovative chefs keep the foodie scene abuzz. Chimney Rock State Park, Lake Lure, and gorgeous waterfalls are outdoor highlights in the foothills. Mountain bikers, get your fix in Pisgah National Forest.
North Carolina Coast
Wind, water, and sunny skies set a mood for fun along the North Carolina Coast. For the best all-around beach scene head to the Outer Banks, a 100-mile stretch of rugged barrier islands marked by dunes, fishing piers, and wild horses. Try hang-gliding at Jockey’s Ridge, windsurfing off Hatteras Island, and parasailing and paddling in Corolla and Duck. For close-to-the-beach tent camping, drive south to Cape Hatteras National Seashore or ferry over to Ocracoke Island.
