I can’t say enough about how great this place is! The property is beautiful, and also secure. I felt safe being there. The different sites are far enough from one another that you don’t feel like you’re there with anyone or on top of each other. The yurt itself (I stayed in the Gnome) was clean and well kept, had every thing I could need or want. It was comfortable and felt very cozy on the chilly nights. Sitting on the deck for breakfast and dinner was perfect. The view is beyond words! Having utensils, propane heat, electricity for basics like charging electronics, and everything I need for cooking was perfect. Add on top of that the little additional things like games, towels, a little rechargeable and portable lamp, and cleaning supplies, this place was perfect! Even if I never left the property it was an amazing vacation with great hiking and a beautiful serene escape. My dogs both loved being able to explore off leash and I never felt like they were unsafe. I’m already planning my trip back next fall with my entire family!

It was a cool little spot! We came in October and the water was low, so if you need water access be sure to ask the lake levels before you go. The yurt had all the comforts of home and Briana was extremely responsive and helpful! She provided water jugs for us so we wouldn't have to haul in our own.

Great spot! You can pack light, as most of what you need is already at the site. Host was very responsive, though we did not need much, as everything was provided. Quiet, peaceful, and private. We had two dogs with us (mine is reactive/fearful) and it was secluded enough that I did not feel that I needed to worry too much during our stay.

If you are looking for peace, quiet and complete solitude with the comforts of home then I highly recommend Kathryn’s yurt. It was perfect for my teenage son and me to enjoy our trip to Asheville and the surrounding area for hiking and zip lining. To find the yurt, you will drive up a steep gravel driveway and about a quarter of a mile to a pull-off space to park the car. The yurt is just a few steps down a well-lit pathway. Inside the yurt is a kitchenette with a drip coffee maker, microwave, toaster, mini fridge and tiny dishwasher. There were plenty of plates, cups and utensils to share. We brought a folding table and camping stove to set up outside for cooking, which was perfect. There’s also a fire ring with chairs in the back of the yurt. There are a few grocery stores a short drive away. The beds were comfortable enough and the split heating/ac unit kept it nice and cozy. This yurt is exactly what I was looking for. We did not see or hear anyone else the whole time we were there. The views are just stunning and you can hear the rushing river from below. I will definitely stay again the next time I’m in the area.

Weekend Trip to Outercamp, Blue Ridge Falls Retreat

One of our favorite HipCamp’s to date, Evan and friends are running a legit campground/ retreat here, and it’s really really wonderful! We stayed in the yurt with 2 beds, ‘Wild Fairies Do Yoga’ and found it peaceful and quiet, away from people/other sites and beautifully immersed in the WNC woods. The convenience of showing up and not having to set up a tent/beds but still having the camping experience (campfires, quiet, off-grid) was perfect for us after a long week. The beds were also SO comfortable!!! We did bring some firewood with us because as noted the firewood at the site (and bundles sold by the host) were quite damp. We also brought drinking water and were glad we did because though the site provided jugs of water filled from the nearby spring (and instructions on how to refill), the instructions said it was for cooking and hand/dish washing and we did note that there was some particulate in it (we used it to make coffee, though, without an issue!). We enjoyed all the hikes on site, the waterfall hike and hike up to the peak view, though the latter was less clearly marked (an adventure!). Our kids loved playing the little pool below the waterfall. Evan was so helpful with planning and has kept up an extensive website for his outdoor business (OuterCamp) which has many local hike suggestions, be sure to check that out, there are several in the area of which we enjoyed a few! We will definitely be back, it was just the camping trip we hoped for without the setup work!

Loved staying in this yurt with my husband and dog for a few nights. It was private, great to hike around from the property, comfortable bed.
