2 nights at Canopy Ridge Safari Tent

This was the perfect glamping experience. Cozy bedding, impeccable tent, and perfectly clean. We stayed in tent 1 and could not have been happier with all of our accomodations, the king bed was so comfortable, one of the best nights of sleep ever. Even during a major thunderstorm everything was cozy and dry. Highly recommend staying here anytime, can't wait till we come back again!

3 nights at Honeysuckle Springs Smoky Mountains

Pros- This place is peaceful. The view was mesmerizing. We really enjoy the pop up camper. The hosts were super responsive. They provided us with everything we needed to get to the site. The best part is that they have WIFI. Cons- Camp sites were way too close to each other. It was hard for us to turn on our music enough for all us to hear. All of our concentration was focused on trying to not be too loud. Since we didn’t want to disturb our neighboring sites. For those of you, who like the idea of Meet and Greet while enjoying the beautiful nature view, then this place is for you. The bathroom was super clean. It was good opportunity to get few steps in lol. But it was a little far to walk down in the middle of the night.

Weekend Trip to Honeysuckle Springs Smoky Mountains

Beautiful property and good communication. The campsite was set up well and the facilities were clean and convenient.

Weekend Trip to West Preserve

Awesome property and spot. Friendly and responsive host. Site was flat and easy to get to thanks to her written instructions. Also had restroom access and a power plug for charging phones etc. Would definitely recommend to anyone needing a spot in the area.

Weekend Trip to Rest And Relax Retreat

I loved my camp site at the Rest and Relax Retreat. I will definitely come back. The property was beautiful and secluded and still only 10 minutes from Blue Ridge. There was only a few other campsites along the creek so it felt very private. Very well equipped campsite- I really enjoyed swinging in the provided hammocks. Very clean indoor showers and bathrooms were a huge plus for camping also. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Quiet Forest On The Creek

We loved staying on Sandra’s meadow tent spot! Me and my boyfriend stayed one night and enjoyed the noises of the peaceful stream running near us. Such a beautiful area and very well set up for us, we had no trouble getting here with the directions provided.

Weekend Trip to Honeysuckle Springs Smoky Mountains

Beautiful location! The hosts go out of their way to make sure that you have what you need! The bath house is very clean and well maintained!

Weekend Trip to Mountain Creek Rest

A Beautiful & special place Site is absolutely gorgeous, clean and quiet. Nestled in a valley of North Carolina’s mountains, situated where the Squally Creek and the Little Buffalo Creek meet is this awesome camp site. Parking is perfect for car camping, flat/level tent platform and camp fire pit are precisely placed for a cozy, safe environment. Picnic table, small gathering of tools for the campfire pit and elevated grill were very well maintained. We brought our dog and she had an awesome time. Brian’s driving directions were very helpful. He met us briefly and was the perfect host. (It’s more off the beaten path than we expected making it even better with no distant highway traffic sounds!) Buy/Bring your own seasoned firewood. No cutting down native firewood…leave the woods as you found them. Someone had left some and so did we. We Highly recommend this site, host and season.

Weekend Trip to Mountain Creek Rest

Incredible setting, beautiful primitive cabin, and kind host. Will be back!

Weekend Trip to Magical Mountain Resorts

We had an amazing time here! We tent camped and stayed at T1. Nice fire pit and stream next to the tent site. Animals and mushroom theme added to the stay. Owner gave us a tour and was very welcoming.

Weekend Trip to Honeysuckle Springs Smoky Mountains

My partner and I had a wonderful weekend here! The bathrooms were great and the view was beautiful! The owner was kind and checked in with us throughout the stay. He provided us with great hiking recommendations in the area, including a trail they have right off the campsite! Definitely recommend!

Weekend Trip to Honeysuckle Springs Smoky Mountains

Honeysuckle Springs was a beautiful place to “glamp”! The site was well kept and the bathhouse was kept clean and stocked. Beautiful wildlife and views make me want to visit again!

Tim

Weekend Trip to Misty Mountain Inn & Cottages

The cabins are cozy and well appointed. We fell in love with Dragonfly cabin and it's spot amongst the other cabins. The grounds are beautiful and well kept. The chickens come out about the same time each morning and it was fun to watch them have breakfast and roam around. We took the opportunity to purchase some of their eggs and were not disappointed. Take the time to walk up the hill to see the horses! The cabins are centrally located to Blairsville, Blue Ridge and Helen with great restaurants and sightseeing in all directions. We wish our stay could have been longer! Thank you to the nicest hosts and we will be back!

1 night at Magical Mountain Resorts

Enjoyed our time in the Enchanted Forest for sure! Sweet place with lots of cute areas for fun.

1 night at Wilderwood Smoky Mountains

Book this! You will not regret it. The drive is fun - I absolutely loved Lynne’s property! The views are incredible. They thought of everything - hot coffee, towels, robes. Just stunning. We stayed in the tiny house and fell in love. There are also the sweetest cats on site that made our stay that much more special. Thank you Lynne! We will be coming back ❤️

Mary

2 nights at Mountain Creek Rest

This was my first ‘solo camping’ trip with my companion Sir Eggz of Benedict, aka Bennie, and Diamondstone did not disappoint. Brian welcomed us upon arrival and ensured that I was in safe land. This location was private, which I loved the most, other than the most beautiful landscape I have ever been to camping . This is a special place.

Weekend Trip to Mountain Creek Rest

This site was great! We had a good bit of rain during our stay so the cabin was a great place to stay dry. Even with the rain, the site wasn’t a muddy mess. Our first day there was dry and beautiful. Would definitely come back.

Weekend Trip to Holy Smokies Rv Park And Glamping

This was a great campground. There were kids running around having a blast. Nice dog park by the creek. Flat and level lots, easy in and out. Yet far enough away to hear all the ruckus.

Weekend Trip to Roamstead

My family and I absolutely loved Roamstead. The on-site activities were great supplements to the easy access to smoky mountains and Gatlinburg. Having the stream right next to our cabin and rv site provided endless fun and exploration! Will definitely be returning.

The Bunk Room is a simple room that sits above the bath house. This room has four twin beds - linens provided. This room has fans for the warmer weather and a space heater for colder months. Reservation is for the whole room.

Glamping at the Chapel

Secluded 48 acres in Murphy (about 16 minutes to downtown). Near: John C. Campbell Folk School (about 12 minutes away); Nantahala River (about 35 minutes away). Friendly dog and cat (they live at my house, but may come to the chapel for a visit). Roam the property and swim in the spring fed pond. If you are a camper or want to try "camping," then you will love "glamping" ("glamorous camping") at the chapel! Read more about "glamping" and the chapel's features below. The space My vision is that my property (which I've named "Kingdom Come") would be a place of rest, retreat, and enjoyment for others. I am going to build a few cabins for lodging, but my first major project was building a chapel, so that it would be the centerpiece and heartbeat: a place for reflection, meditation, and prayer. I built the chapel myself (with my own hands, and the hands of a couple of friends). As I work on building the cabins, I have decided to use the chapel as a glamping site (better than using it as a "divine" storage building!). My mother was an artist and when she died I ended up with a lot of her artwork. Some of her paintings now fill the chapel. They also fill the space, I hope, with her grace and love and creativity. The chapel features beautiful timber frame construction. As to "glamping" . . . there is no running water/plumbing, but you'll have all the fresh water you need for showers, drinking, etc. Limited electricity for running the kitchen appliances. No AC, of course, but the fan will keep it comfortable in warm weather. As to cold weather, the chapel has an electric heater that keeps it fairly comfortable in cold weather: not blazing hot, but comfortable, unless it gets VERY cold; then, the heater just takes off some of the chill. Zinus Ultima Comfort Memory Foam 6 Inch mattresses are very comfortable! Using the outdoor solar/camp shower is wonderful. The privy is clean and well-ventilated. Appliances: fan; toaster oven; microwave oven; coffee maker; and, small micro-fridge. Lighting is provided by four rechargeable lanterns. Screens on the windows and door to keep the bugs at bay. Outdoor deck features comfortable Adirondack chairs, a Weber charcoal grill, and a fire pit for campfires. I'll provide you with wood (on a donation basis . . . pay what you like) campfires. Matches and paper provided, too, to help get the fire started. The play area offers opportunities limited only by your imagination. Sunbathing? Stargazing? Badminton and Bocce balls provided if you want to play!

Nantahala: Cabins & Campsites

13 sites · Lodging, Tents7 acres · NC

We just retired from Active Duty Air Force! My ancestors have owned the land our NC cabins sit on since 1836. In fact, my mother grew up there after my Grandfather returned from WWII when there was no electricity and the outhouse was a bench over the creek. I grew up hiking the mountains with my brothers and our BB guns and my Uncle Frank at our family reunions. In 2005 he deeded us a parcel of land and we built our first cabin - Smawlie. We love to come to the cabin and Hike the trails on our own property, and of course, the world famous ones that join them, namely the Bartram and the Appalachian Trails. As you explore the lake, the trails, the rivers, and the mountain roads you'll see why our ancestors settled here. In 2018 - we bought the remainder of Uncle Frank's land - and in his honor built our second cabin - Frank's Landing. Also in that year I started managing my brother Bill's cabin. When we were stationed in Alaska for 6 heavenly years - we purchased a remote parcel of property and have slowly begun to develop it. We just completed building our cabin there. Thanks for reading this little tid bit about us. We love to explore the mountains and are excited to share our cabins with you.

Roamstead

77 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents6 acres · Cosby, TN

Roamstead was born on a family RV trip across the country. Our founders noticed their glamorous plans often ended in glorified parking lots or dirty campgrounds without amenities or thought regarding design. Alongside that, many campgrounds seemed unapproachable to those who hadn’t been before. A vision was born to reinvent 'roughing it' in a way that could welcome all adventurers to experience the magic of the great outdoors. We believe the beauty of nature should be experienced by everyone. It's good for your health, and the more we connect with and learn about the outdoors, the more we'll feel compelled to protect it. Whether you've been camping all your life or this would be your first trip, we're here for you. We aim to build a bridge (you know, a metaphorical one) to the great outdoors, where all adventures can truly feel welcome. Roamstead is committed to making our outdoor spaces accessible to everyone. At our Smoky Mountains location, we're partnering with Friends of the Smokies to do just that. Friends assists the National Park Service in its mission to preserve and protect the Great Smoky Mountains National Park by raising funds and public awareness, and providing volunteers for needed projects. They restore trails, build handicap accessible access points, and provide urban youth educational opportunities in the park, to name just a few of their many projects. A dollar of each stay at Roamstead Smoky Mountains is donated back to Friends of the Smokies to help continue their mission.

The Rowdy Bear Off-Grid Glamping

Fall in love with our secluded Off-Grid Cabin located in the Great Smoky Mountains. Wake up to the sounds of a babbling creek and beautiful mountain views, hike the Road to Nowhere, kayak the Little Tennesee River, cook hot dogs over an open fire, and then open the glass panel garage door and fall asleep under the most beautiful sky you will ever see. Rowdy Bear Highlights: • 12ft glass panel door that opens the cabin to nature • Queen Tempurpedic bed • Rain Captured Shower • Fire Pit The Space: The Rowdy Bear is an Off-Grid Cabin that is situated in the Great Smoky Mountains with easy access to both Bryson City and Franklin. The cabin itself was built using rough sawn wood acquired from a local sawmill. Many of the items used in the cabin came from local shops or antique stores. There is a 2000-watt Solar Generator in the cabin that can be used for lights, charging cell phones, and running the pump for the shower. The Solar Panels are enough to charge the Generator to 100% each day. Rainwater is used for showers. The gutter system on the cabin is used to catch rainwater. The downspout runs into a "First Flush Diverter", which allows any dust, dirt, or anything else that might land on the roof between the rainstorms to be diverted away from the water storage tank. The clean rainwater then fills the water storage tank. Be aware that Rainwater is fine for showers, but is not meant for drinking. Propane is connected to a space heater and the shower. The space heater is 17,000 BTUs, which is plenty for colder nights. The shower has an at-source water heater and can heat the water up to 120 degrees, which is more than enough for a hot shower. A porta potty is provided for bathroom purposes and is cleaned and restocked every Thursday. Pets are allowed! The following items are provided: 1. Linens 2. Towels 3.

Outdoor table for food and drinks 13. Propane Torch for lighting fires Guest access The Rowdy Bear is situated on 2.5 acres of land. There is a large section cleared off where the cabin is located. There is plenty of room for the fire pit, vehicles, animals, and any outdoor games you might want to bring (cornhole). Both Bryson City and Franklin are fairly close to the cabin. Bryson City is approximately 20 minutes away, while Franklin is approximately 30 minutes away. Both towns offer great little downtown areas that have shopping and restaurants. Don't be afraid to try the food trucks, they have some of the best food. Bryson City has many trails for hiking such as the Road to nowhere, Noland Divide Trail, Three Waterfalls Loop (FYI: There are three waterfalls on this trail), and Deep Creek Waterfall Loop. The fishing in Bryson City is also great and the guided trips are very reasonably priced. I would suggest going in the morning and doing a float trip. Franklin is bigger and a little more spread out than Bryson city, but there are a lot of neat little stores and restaurants. I personally like going to the Currahee Brewing Company. Currahee is right on the river and is set up to host live bands and it gets pretty lively in the late afternoons and evenings on the weekends. Other things to note One of the things you would want to bring is a 1 lb propane bottle for the Torch that is provided. Using the torch to start a fire is much easier than kindling. The solar generator has enough power to run the small coffee pot if you don't want to use the percolator. The generator also has enough power to run hair dryers. The main thing you want to keep in mind is anything that uses a heating element will drain the battery quickly. Lanterns are provided If needed. Overall, you should be good to go, but it is something to keep in mind.
