Weekend Trip to Winding Stair Campground

We loved camping on Sarah‘s land. We rented the bunk room, which had four twin beds. The bathrooms were clean and the camp area is nestled in the mountains of North Carolina. We look for to our next visit.

Weekend Trip to Winding Stair Campground

This campground was awesome. I can not say enough great things about it! The site we were in was well marked and a great location. The pavilion and common area by the stream was perfect for lounging, swimming, fishing, and playing. I only came with half of my family but planning coming back real soon with the whole family of 8.

This was my partner, our dog, and I’s second time here. We came last spring and absolutely fell in love with this farm/camping spot. The fall did not disappoint. Definitely will be coming back!!

Beautiful area, super friendly hosts, great amenities on the grounds to make camping easy and comfy. We loved River House! So unique and well built, that wood stove 😍 and the stone steps to the water are just perfect for enjoy the riverside. Great vibes for a small group or family trip.

Winding Stair Campground sits at an elevation of 3,380 feet, next to the headwaters of the Nantahala River and is surrounded by national forest and undeveloped private land trusts. The stunning mountain views in a remote tucked-away setting make our farm a perfect getaway! Just a 15-minute scenic drive from Franklin in North Carolina, easily accessible off Hwy 64, our campground offers a chance to enjoy nature without being far away from the public amenities of a small but well-equipped town. A few features about our property: - Working farm: Campers are welcome to meet our Icelandic sheep and take a self-guided tour of our farm, along designated pathways. - Security: The campground and farm are fenced in on three sides with the river being the fourth boundary.

Each side has 2 private showers, 4 flushing toilets, sinks, hot water, and gas heat. - Community Pavilion: The Pavilion is a large 40x30 ft. open sided structure overlooking the Nantahala River.

As a two time hiker of the Appalachian Trail, my wife Julie and I have a dream of helping fellow hikers and those that wish to experience the outdoors in various ways. The area is close to many points on the trail as well as access to water sports. Julie is a great resource if you are interested in a short day hike or long-distance hiking.
