Weekend Trip to Mystic Meadow Love Shack

Our stay was great. The love shake was a great size four two and two dogs. She has very helpful amenities throughout the camp spot. The dogs loved the creak and the trail. The trail was about a 15 minute walk, a must do. She was very responsive and accomidating. The outhouse looks intimidating on the pictures but it was very nice. Clean and no odor at all. The showers were great, clean and plenty of hot water.

Weekend Trip to Ancient Spring Farm

This was my second time coming to this wonderful spot. Rebecca does everything right. Last time I came solo and this time I came with my partner and his very anxious little dog. It was the dogs first time camping and they did great. They both loved it as much as I do. Can't wait to come back again.

1 night at Private meadow and pond

Amazing spot with a great host! Would come back 100% in the future.

Weekend Trip to Cane Creek Camping Platform #2

This is a fun place to camp. Peacocks, donkeys, chickens, geese... and the friendliest little black cat you have ever seen. It a pretty spot and I will definitely stay again next time I pass through.

Weekend Trip to Private meadow and pond

This space was perfect for a relaxing weekend away! Our dog loved roaming the property and got to meet Luna who was the sweetest farm pup I’ve ever met. Would book again!

Weekend Trip to Rare, Watershed Forest - Piedmont

This is such a hidden gem; it's my 3rd time booking at this campsite. It's great for a dip in the creek and a fun time with friends. The trails are well-maintained, and the amenities are great for first-time campers. I love bringing my friends here, and it has become somewhat of a tradition to come here and unwind. The host is very kind, thoughtful, and quick to respond; I will continue to recommend and spread the word about this wonderful site.

Weekend Trip to Rare, Watershed Forest - Piedmont

Great site, the area was clean and surrounded by trees connected by a trail to Site 3, which is where another group of friends stayed to be close to the creek. Great secluded campsite!

Creekside campfire... What could be better?!

Weekend Trip to Mystic Meadow Love Shack

We loved our weekend at the Mystic Meadow love shack! This was our first experience with HipCamp and it did not disappoint. The site was so peaceful and cute and had so many fun and intentional details! The bed was comfortable, the bathroom, showers and cabin were all very clean and well appointed. We had total privacy but Wendy checked in periodically to make sure that all was well. The stream sounds were wonderfully peaceful and sitting on the swing by the stream, relaxing in the hammock and enjoying our coffee by the fire in the mornings were highlights. A truly wonderful place for a relaxing adventure. I hope that we can return soon!

Weekend Trip to Farm Stay at Saxapahaw Country Club

Great overnight! Hosts were beyond helpful, brats and ice cream were delicious. Would recommend.

2 nights at Sugarneck Glamping Resort, NC

Beautiful set up. Made friends with other campers. The tents were cool via the air conditioner on a particularly hot April day. Loved the common room. Will go back and bring friends.

1 night at Farm Stay at Saxapahaw Country Club

These hosts are the best ever! The best hands down hipcamp out there!

2 nights at Sugarneck Glamping Resort

Beautiful site with everything you could need! This was our first glamping experience and it definitely will not be our last. My husband and I were Clover I and our two kids were in Clover II. The private bathroom with mini fridge and coffee maker made cleanup and meal prep so easy. The site was so quiet and peaceful!

Weekend Trip to Sugarneck Glamping Resort

We absolutely loved staying on Alicia’s property. The area was so peaceful and beautiful…it was just the break that we needed. The tent itself was adorable, and had all the creature comforts. Even our (well traveled) kids said this was much better than a hotel room. :) The bathroom was incredible, with a shower I wish I had at home! Highly recommend. 👍🏼

3 nights at Sugarneck Glamping Resort, NC

From the moment we got there, till the time we left was absolutely wonderful!!! The tent was better the photos, exceptionally clean, incredibly comfortable and more than I expected. The bathroom facility was as well fantastic! The kids loved it, our dog had the best time and with the exception of being covered in tree pollen for 3 days, we all had an amazing weekend. Alicia was an awesome host!!!!

2 nights at Sugarneck Glamping Resort

Enjoyed a wonderful springtime glamping getaway at Sugarneck! The Clover cabins and bathhouse were clean, cozy, well equipped, and private. Favorite amenities included the mini fridge, Solo Stove fire pit and firewood, strong wifi, towels and toiletries, and coffee machine. My dog and I loved exploring the beautiful property and venturing out to hike at nearby San-Lee Nature Park, Raven Rock State Park, and Harris Lake Park during the day before relaxing around the campfire each evening! A tired dog is a happy dog. :) Looking forward to a return trip!

Weekend Trip to Farm Stay at Saxapahaw Country Club

Beautiful last minute find! So glad we had the chance to stay at Saxapahaw Country Club—it’s a little hidden gem in a really cool part of central NC. The site was easy to find for setup. The space was very open and had beautiful sunrise and sunset views. The property is very well set up and maintained. The hammocks hanging between the pines overlooking the pond and the lambs/donkey was my favorite. Their pork is DELICIOUS. We met the owners and they are so sweet, and also very helpful/quick to respond to questions. We will definitely be back!

Weekend Trip to Private meadow and pond

My friend and I found this spot to “meet in the middle” for one night with our dogs (she’s in Durham and I’m in Greensboro). We had a great evening. Super convenient. Would definitely return. Easy directions to the campsite. Felt very private while we were hanging out at campsite. Yet still close to town/conveniences if needed. We made a quick trip to the brewery down the street and it was great. Didn’t interact with the host at all bc there was no need. His Instructions were clear and accurate. Everything mentioned in the post was available and easy to find - including fire wood, which was greatly appreciated!

Weekend Trip to Mystic Meadow Love Shack

This was such an amazing place and space! The land is absolutely stunning, the "Love Shack" was clean, comfortable and the way the roof opened up to the porch was epic. She left little snacks and plenty of resources to discover nearby, even though, I didn't want to leave this haven! The outhouse was surprisingly more pleasant than regular campground bathrooms. Mystic Meadows is truly a magical place to unplug and recharge. There are hiking trails and some games and a hammock. Wendy is an incredible host and I will be back many more times. Best birthday gift I ever gave myself! Thank you!

Our property is a small hobby farm. The meadow you will be camping in was formed in 1994 when hurricane Fran came through and laid down several acres of hardwood trees.

You're welcome to fish and walk around the property. Enjoy a peaceful evening by the firepit and the beautiful starry nights. We have a very friendly farm dog named Luna that does roam the property and will likely visit you. Chapel Hill, Mebane, and Hillsborough are all short drives from your campsite. We cater to familes and small groups, NO PARTIES!

Mystic Meadow Love Shack

1 site · Lodging28 acres · Madison, NC

My farm had been untouched for years and only used as hay farming. It is rolling hills known by the locals as "Butterfly Hill" Which the farm is home to many species of butterflies in the summer. I know the area was inhabited by native Americans many decades ago. I have found a few broken arrow heads over the years. The farm is beautiful and quiet. I have a beautiful hiking trail around the property for you to take your fur babies on. The cabin is right on a beautiful stream too. There are several state parks nearby and river tubing within 10 -30 minutes. Hot showers and potable water just a few feet away.

Ancient Spring Farm

3 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents25 acres · Snow Camp, NC

Our farm is a beautiful, private 25 acres with an 1830s house, outbuildings, animals, orchards, gardens, pastures, old trees, wildlife habitat, a spring, and woods. Here you can relax; watch nature; meet our chickens, goats, horse, cats, and dog; learn about archaeology, history, plants, and mead making; and get eggs and homegrown seasonal food. Listen to birdsong and watch clouds during the day, wander a path through our ca. 5 acres of woods, see fireflies in the evening, and star watch at night. Nearby are hiking, horseback riding, historical sites, fishing, antiques, wineries, shooting, and more. We are located in a rural area and have many different domesticated and wild animals so you may hear diverse animal noises and see or smell animal poop, although we try to keep things clean and tidy. Our neighbors have dogs, cattle, and chickens/roosters and occasionally shoot guns during daylight hours (one neighbor is a sporting club with skeet shooting and hunting dogs) but typically our farm is a quiet and peaceful place. We mow regularly and our rooster and chicken ladies wander far and wide eating bugs but, in the summer, they can't get every mosquito and tick so please plan accordingly for your own comfort.

Container Experience

3 sites · Lodging4 acres · Graham, NC

I purchased a 1960's ranch home and 4 acres over 5 years ago. I turned the home into The Fab 4 House, furnishing it with authentic Mid-century Modern furniture and naming each bedroom for 1 of the Beatles. I rent it out and it is great for events. However, I needed 1 bedroom accommodations so I purchased 3- 8'x40' shipping containers and turned them into tiny homes. You can rent 1 or all 3. The courtyard in the middle features a Tiki Bar, Beach Scene, Putting Green. I want people to enjoy the in and outside together.
