This is a DRY SITE. Your camping vehicle must be able to hold both sewage and gray water. The site borders a North Carolina trout stream. We reserve the right to cancel if you do not comply. The campsite is about 1.25 acres and part of a larger property. We set up a travel trailer here while we built our home. Recently one of our neighbors, who does quite a bit of camping, set up their travel trailer in the same spot while their home was being painted. They loved it and recommended that we offer the site for others to appreciate. Respecting the DRY CAMPSITE helps.

We loved tent camping on Ashley's land! He was very hospitable and kind. We loved hearing about all the animals and things he was doing with his time. We were right by the creek, so at night it was very soothing. Our children loved playing and throwing the ball with Ashley's dogs. It was our first time camping, so we didn't know what to expect but it was one of the best experiences yet and there was even a shower! We can't wait to go back! Thanks for the great time guys!

It was a lovely and easy stay! Directions and signage to getting to the site were clear. The string lights were very helpful for camp lighting. Firepit was ready to use when I got there! The upper deck was clean and a very nice feature.

The setting is very peaceful on the creek and we barely noticed the seldom cars from the road. The host is very nice and eager to help. We did need Anderson blocks to level our 40' 5th wheel but we're used to that and the space was long enough for both our 5th wheel and truck - we couldn't exactly tell from the photos. I think what would make it perfect is a picnic table and a solution for trash. We couldn't find anywhere to take our trash and did see a bear one morning so leaving trash outside is for sure not safe. Thank you Thom for a peaceful few days!

It is a beautiful spot next to a creek. We woke up to ducks in the morning feeding and playing, and got to fall asleep to the running water at night. There were plenty of other campers - everyone was friendly and Ashely was an extremely helpful host. He is very present, and brings a great vibe. The bathrooms were almost always accessible, even with plenty of people there. The land was so unique. It is located perfectly close to Asheville and BMT - the drive was scenic and easy. Our one complaint (I say lightheartedly because it was truly no matter to us) was the wifi did not reach our camping spot. We figured this was the universe telling us to logout for awhile anyways(: It was a lovely stay and we plan to come back with friends and family in the future.

Had a great time at Reems Creek Retreat. The listing accurately reflects the location and experience. The running creek beside to campsite was great to listen to and soothing to hear at night. The provided wifi was excellent. The site is a gravel area but isn't flat so make you have plenty of stabilizing blocks. The campsite is only about 12 min from Weaverville which has everything you need. Wagbar is a definite must if you have a dog. Highly recommend Blue Mountain Pizza. Food was fantastic. Thom and his wife are fantastic hosts. Came over to introduce themselves and responded very quickly to messages. Will definitely come back.

Owner was extremely responsive. Was able to book and confirm within 10 minutes and I was super grateful because I was scrambling to find a spot.
The overhead deck is so cool!! Could easily fit a few tents up there. Loved the views and string lights everywhere.

The spaces weren't labeled. The bathroom is kinda far from the sites. But host was happy to help. Communication with host wasn't ideal. The ducks on the property were super cute. The dogs were super friendly. We ended up in space #2.

The elevated deck was awesome! Big enough for multiple tents. Just be mindful that's there isn't any way to stake your tent out of you don't have a freestanding tent. You may have to get creative with that. If you are looking for a place that is extremely secluded, this might not be it. There were neighbors nearby through the woods. That said it is very private and we had no concerns about privacy. It was easy to find, the directions are good, and parking was easy and convenient. We would definitely use Lindsey's site again if we return.

Lindsey is an excellent host, very helpful and kind! She even turned the lights on for me because I was arriving late. I enjoyed my stay as a female solo camper. This site is private but not secluded. There are houses nearby. If you want to try solo camping but you're nervous, this is a great place to start. You have people within shouting distance which can be comforting. You can hear cars on the road in the distance, neighbors doing yard work, or dogs baking... but that's to be expected. Sound carries in rural areas. However, it wasn't bad. If you're busy doing your own thing or chatting with friends, it's not that noticeable. This is also a great site for friends. You can easily setup multiple tents on the deck. The graveled area below the deck isn't level so I pitched my tent on the top. The area to the side of the deck is fairly level. The top of the deck has shade. Bring something to clear leaves. I usually bring a rake when camping but I forgot it this trip. That's on me. The top of the deck doesn't have lights so bring your own. A few yards from the deck, there is a water spigot and electrical outlet. Bring a long outdoor extension cord if you plan to use electricity on the deck. There is also a nice fire pit area. There is a river within a 5 minutes drive, and Asheville is only about 20 min away. I would camp here again!
