Stories from the community

1 night at Rare, Watershed Forest - Piedmont

This was my first time camping solo, and I could not have picked a better place for it. My site was private and safe, right next to the river....my tent fit perfectly on the platform and there was a firepit nearby. Directions to the campground were clear, I found the place easily. Be prepared to walk a little bit from your car to site#1, but it's a beautiful walk on a trail. Something for every nature lover ..river, meadows, woods, a fruit and veggie garden, I even saw some horses! Bathroom was easy to find and workable, too. Just a gorgeous, quiet place to connect to creation! Cox was friendly and encouraged me to enjoy the campground and hang a while, which I appreciate. Get yourself to Respite on the Round! I highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Honah Lee Farms

We loved this campsite! Felt very private and kids enjoyed the easy access to the river for swimming and fishing. We hope to come back again!

1 night at Ancient Spring Farm

Rebecca was a kind, accommodating, patient host and it was a pleasure to stay on her cute little farm. Definitely would recommend, literally not a single bad thing to say about my experience, thanks Rebecca!!

1 night at Animal Sanctuary and Peace Park

This was really an incredible experience! The campsites are next to a nature sanctuary which you are able to explore once it's closed to the public. There are tons of friendly dogs and cats that spend time with you as you wander. Two cats even stayed at the campsite! Highly recommend staying here, will definitely be returning

Weekend Trip to Tar River Life

This has been our best camping experience since moving to eastern North Carolina. We’ve tried so many sites, but nothing quite hit the nostalgia button of what we camped in growing up in New England. This site nailed it. Very fair price, very clean, river access. So grateful to have found the spot.

4 nights at Tar River Life

Absolutely loved the sites. Each site was spaced apart so you felt like you were secluded. I loved being able to get in the river and float from my site. Each site was in shade which I know will be great next time I go. Really loved having fire wood on site and extra available if needed. The paths were great to walk on. The Host was very nice. We loved how close it was to stores if we needed anything. It also a great treat to go to Vollmer Farms store for ice cream which was like 2 minutes up the road.

4 nights at Tar River Life

I really loved camping at Tar River Life. The sites are spacious and clean. It was quiet and relaxing. No one bothered. We would recommend this campground and we will be booking again.

1 night at Boulder Creek Hideaway

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.

Weekend Trip to Honah Lee Farms

Such a lovely site! It was quiet, private, spacious, and pretty. The hosts were super easy to communicate with (and very helpfully provide advice before we booked on which site might be the best fit for our family) and they made check-in easy. We’ll definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Private meadow and pond

Fantastic spot for a relaxing getaway. We brought our dog along, and she had an absolute blast. The on-site amenities—bathroom, kitchen, and a screened-in porch—were a really nice touch. The outdoor shower added to the comfort of the stay. There’s also a small pond stocked with bass, so you can enjoy fishing all day. It’s a perfect place for a family camping trip, with shops and restaurants just a short drive away. We’d definitely return and highly recommend it!

Weekend Trip to Sugarneck Glamping Resort, NC

We camped in Clover and facility are very good and clean. We enjoyed our stay. Kids had lot of fun. Enjoy nearby hiking places like Raven Rock State park, San-Lee Park.

Weekend Trip to Honah Lee Farms

My daughters and I had a great trip. They loved wading through the creek and catching crawdads and minnows with their net. Even had a mother, turkey and little babies come through.

Weekend Trip to Honah Lee Farms

The hosts were very helpful and communicated great. The site is beautiful and our 4 kids (7-13) all loved it. The river is fun, but bring water shoes because the bottom is rocky. Definitely would go again!

1 night at Benzai Bloomstead

Really peaceful site down by the creek. Under tree cover and shielded from wind in the valley. Would love to come back again

1 night at By the water

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.

4 nights at Farm Stay at Saxapahaw Country Club

What an awesome property, and wonderful hosts. Lots of space to spread out, disc golf baskets on site, a pond for fishing, not missing anything for a great weekend outdoors. Will go back for sure

Weekend Trip to Sugarneck Glamping Resort, NC

We had a great time glamping at Cyrus! It was a cozy glamping tent. When we arrived, we had everything we needed. The family room was also convenient and fun way to spend our time. There was also a grill on site. The little walking trail was easy to follow. The kids loved the swing the most !

Weekend Trip to Scott’s Lakeview Camp and Park

Site 5 was a nice secluded area where we could relax and enjoy the day. The lake had some good fishing spots and we enjoyed making a bonfire at our campsite. Would recommend to anyone who wants to leave the stress of the city for a few days

Weekend Trip to Tar River Life

Great spot on the River. perfect little getaway and great responses from the host
