Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Triple J Farm and Campground

The thing that stood out the most was how the hosts were very attentive and went out of there way to make us feel welcome on several occasions. They are relatively new to being camp hosts and still ironing out a few things but I would definitely camp there again.

1 night at Waterfall camping close to CLT

A real cool place in the middle of an urban setting, who would’ve known that you could have a waterfall and climbing rocks and a great place to set up your tent. Of course you hear traffic because it is in the city, but my goodness it was great.

Weekend Trip to Waterfall camping close to CLT

My family and I loved the camp site. It was amazing! Great waterfall! We will definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Tails and Trails

The place was well maintained and was very comfortable. Bring a wagon, but getting gear from car to tent is worth the short, semi-hilly hike down the trail. Jeremy was a fantastic host and was great with communication. Our dog also really loved it there! Very relaxing and peaceful, although we could hear fireworks both nights from the race track. Our dog doesn't care or react to the sound of fireworks, but some may so wanted to add that.

Weekend Trip to Private Oasis In The Forest

My sons ans I had an amazing time. I was concerned about the possibility of thunderstorms so Alex told us to feel free to use the cabin and we did. We caught lots of blue gill. The cooking area is well equipped. I would highly recommend checking out Alex's property. We cant wait to go back.

Weekend Trip to Lake Lookout Campground

The campsites were absolutely wonderful, offering a serene and peaceful atmosphere. I truly enjoyed the tranquility they provided, making my stay incredibly relaxing. I will definitely be booking again for another escape.

Weekend Trip to The swimming hole

Great little secluded spot right in Charlotte's backyard, easy to get to. Great for a little retreat as a couple. We didn't swim, but the dog did and she loved it. Will definitely keep this spot in mind for future trips!

Weekend Trip to Waterfall camping close to CLT

Almost hate to leave a review because i don’t want to share this place!! The owner and property are absolutely amazing!!

1 night at Hidden CLT Wilderness

Beautiful stay will be back again! Love how you just drive up and don’t expect it ❤️

1 night at Waterfall camping close to CLT

Amazing spot. Water was cool and refreshing. Perfect amount of shade from the trees. Great seating with picnic table and swings. Family across the river there for a lot of the time, so not completely private.

1 night at Lucky Farms Under the Stars

Amazing camp site with a pinic table and lit trails that come alive at night.

1 night at Waterfall camping close to CLT

Magical place easily one of the best Hipcamps. We have been to. its summer time would recommend Bugspray but overall nothing too crazy. 10/10 will be back with the family

Weekend Trip to Lucky Farms Under the Stars

I really liked my camp site, it was quiet and private. It was in the shade and out of the sun, had a picnic table and room for tents. They even let me use their hose for water to shower. It was a great time and i enjoyed it, only about 10 miles from all the stores.

Weekend Trip to Tails and Trails

My second time there. Everything was as expected and wonderful.

Weekend Trip to Private Oasis In The Forest

Really pretty and quiet! We had a really good time even though it was the hottest it’s been this year so far. It was over 90° the whole time we were there so it was HOT but we still had an awesome time! Definitely recommend having a thermacell and bug spray as you ARE in the woods. There were a ton of flies but having chargeable fans definitely helped deter them away from us! We cooked over the fires had tons of laughs and such an awesome time! The road in is bumpy but we didn’t have any trouble getting in or out! The ground is full of quartz which is so pretty to look at but if you’re sleeping on the ground I would recommend a thick sleeping pad or cots! We had cots so it didn’t bother us at all!

Weekend Trip to Cj’s Suburban Oasis

Great campsite! The instructions were super clear and easy to follow. It felt private although you could see the road through the trees, but there wasn’t much traffic or noise. The fire pit was filled with kindling and there was extra wood stacked for our use. The tent area was a bit uneven and wet since it’s mostly bark, and in a shady area, so it didn’t have a chance to dry out after the rain. Overall, would book again!

3 nights at Lake Lookout Campground

A great site to camp! Definitely a hidden gem right on the river. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to The swimming hole

This spot was exactly what I've been looking for on Hipcamp - a beautiful secluded location that is easy to access. Parking was close enough to be convenient but far enough to forget the car was there. I strive to pass my love of the outdoors to my 4 year old and sites like this go a long way. Firefly light show before bed then falling asleep to the sound of the water can't be beat.

The perfect hammock spot. Go down to the creek from the tipi spot

2 nights at Triple J Farm and Campground

I had a quiet, peaceful time at Triple J Farm. Jessica met me on arrival and led me out to the site. She helped me carry my stuff in and even came out at 10 p.m. to warn me there was a severe thunderstorm warning, and if I wanted to come in, I was welcome. The dogs on the property are super friendly. One even decided to hang out with me as I walked the creek. Even with the heat of summer, the air around the creek is cool and the water cooler. If you have sensitive feet, wear water shoes, lots of rocks, slate and mica. If you wanted to, you could definitely find some rough gems. The area is also heavy in wild blackberries. I was a little too early but still got to enjoy some sun-warmed juiciness! While there are plenty of spots to hang a hammock, I found a spot right next to the creek, where I peacefully finished a couple of books I was reading. It was beautiful! I’ll be back!

4 nights at Sugar Creek

Franklin was amazing. He came right out when we arrived and was giving us advice on where the safest spots were on the property as there were large trees and we were expecting a significant storm. Would recommend to anyone

The New Forest

4 sites · RVs, Tents82 acres · New London, NC

Located in Uwharrie National Forest, the New Forest features open meadows among stands of pine and mixed hardwoods. Campsites are far apart, each unique and offer the opportunity to commune with nature, and experience camping like it should be, emersed in nature with the opportunity to disconnect from the trappings of our modern, hectic world. This area is one of the richest archeological areas in the entire southeast United States. The location of the first real gold rush, and rich in folklore and bootlegging history, old homesteads and family graveyards are scattered among the hills. Old roadbeds and logging trails abound in the 800 acres of Uwharrrie National Forest directly adjacent to the New Forest Property making for miles of hiking opportunities, wildlife viewing, birdwatching. A 3/4 mile hike to the Taylor Family graveyard is marked with ribbons to guide you to one of the of the many family graveyards. *** A new fun feature for kids is the introduction of our dear friend Debbie Beasley"s art to the trails here in the New Forest. Scattered along the many trails are rocks painted by the one and only Debbie Beasley with cute fluorescent/3-D scenes of nature. Children can keep them as souvenirs from their New Forest camping adventure, or enjoy them while here then re-hide them for other children to find. ❤️ Come see for yourself. If you are looking for a modern, crowded campground this isn't it. However if you want a beautiful, rustic experience in nature, with a few basic amenities and with access to Uwharrie National Forest come see what others have enjoyed so much.

Waterfall camping close to CLT

1 site · RV, Tent2 acres · Bessemer City, NC

My Neighbor has started his own Campsite, "The Swimming Hole". If mine is booked up and you still want to camp, look him up. His is better suited for small groups but has much more privacy. We have a new road to the campsite; you can now drive down with two-wheel drive vehicle or RV down and park near your tent! There is plenty of soft sand to set up one tent or ten tents; large groups are welcome for an extra fee. A Porta-Potty is available at the campsite. Swimming is usually possible at the base of the falls; however, large amounts of rain can change conditions and make it unusable. I should also add, this is not a completely private campsite deep in the woods. The camp is visible from a shared driveway, and my residence is up a hill that overlooks the area. Also, I do not own the land on the other side of the stream. Occasionally, the owners of that land will spend a weekend afternoon enjoying the waterfall view also. Still much quieter and more private than a regular campground. Glamping tents and additional camping tents are available through a local company. Look in the pictures for the tent with red, white, and blue balloons. Message me for details. Close to US National Whitewater Center (mountain biking, whitewater rafting, kayaking), Kings Mountain National Military Park (Horseback riding and history), Crowders Mountain (Hiking), 3 miles off of I-85 and US-321 for people passing through.

From any area you camp🏕 the pond🏞, with fish, is in walking distance, so is a beautiful clear stream. ****Did I mention that this stream empties into Lake Tillary, yep, that is right. We are within walking distance to Lake Tillary and less than 5 mins to the boat landing. You may bring your boat and park it here while you camp. SPECIAL NOTE: There are animals here that you may pet once you have been properly introduced. You may bring your pets as long as they are vaccinated and behaved. If they fight with other animals or chase chickens or ducks you may want to test this upon your arrival. Unfortunately, you must keep them on leash at all times. Our County does have a leash law, and should property🌱🌹🌻🚜🚗📬🗑or animals🦌🐂🐏🐐🐰🦃🦆 be damaged or harmed you will be held responsible. For example, if your dog kills a chicken, you buy the chicken🐓🐔🐥. If they harm a horse🐎 or donkey🐴, you are responsible for ALL vet fees. Also, be aware we have coyotes, osprey, hawks, as any rural area does. Small animals must be suprevised. We are not responsible for acts of nature. The barn is beautiful and you are welcome to take photos, however, you are NOT permitted in the barn without supervision. Absolutley NO smoking or fire near the barn. It is over 100 years old and built by my great grand family and is irreplaceable. SPECIAL FEATURE: As I am just beginning the camp on site experience I offer several options and additional services. #1. Some find out after arriving that I teach NC Concealed Carry Handgun Classes. If you wish to participate in a class, it is preferred that you register before the day of the class. I will post classes on this site so that campers will know there will be shooting in the late afternoon. Some chose to camp on other weekends, some choose to go out to eat during those times, and some don't mind either way. #2. I am also much in favor of work for camp site. Some have asked to do clean up or other small jobs for the priviledge to camp. So far this has worked out well, with one exception. Please do not accept an offer to take on a task that you do not know how to do. Example, pulling weeds or trimming if you do not know what a weed verses flower looks like. LOL #3. There is plenty of firewood, see photos, here laying around and some trees down that will make great firewood (bring your own cutting tools.) We also sell firewood by the bundle. #4. Being a camper here gives you the privilege of fresh veggies and fruits that are in season, as well as fresh free range eggs. MAJOR POINT: You must remember this is a working farm and our duties and responsibilities for the farm come first. You must abide by the boundaries. *see map* The creek is the back boundary and should never be crossed onto my neighbors. I will not tolerate any disrespect to my neighbors, what so ever. No! the roosters don't have an off button, neither does the jacka... donkey! When it is hay cutting time, we will cut hay. If you want to hike the property, feel free, know the boundaries and bring a machete to cut your way by the creek/stream in some areas. We have thistle trees and briars, you are welcome to cut all you wish as you go. There are spiders, bugs, and snakes etc. Black snakes, king snakes, runners, and whip snakes belong here and we ask that you do not kill them. Copperheads are here as qell and if you see one, come get me and I will dispatch it for you. .

Camping near Charlotte guide

Overview

Charlotte, the largest city in North Carolina, sits on the state's southern border. Expect humid temperatures in the high 80s from June to September. Spring and fall months are quite comfortable, though. Head about 45 minutes north on I-77 to reach Lake Norman State Park. Cast a line and fish for bluegill, perch, catfish and more in the titular lake. There's a swimming area around the park's south region as well. The park's Itusi Trails are particularly popular for mountain biking. If you're looking for a biking challenge, hit the demanding Laurel Loop. Nature lovers might want to swing southeast and check out the McDowell Nature Center and Preserve. This green area is on the shores of Lake Wylie. The nature preserve's McDowell Campground holds 56 campsites, including an RV park with full hookups. Camping with a large group? You can even rent the entirety of the 14-acre Copperhead Island overnight! Travel a bit east of Charlotte to find the Uwharrie National Forest. Pan for gold, hike the remote Uwharrie Trail, or fish in Badin Lake. If you own horses, don't miss the Canebrake Horse Camp. Here you can take your equine friends out on 38 miles of horse trails.
