Weekend Trip to Scott’s Lakeview Camp and Park

Great place. Very quiet, secluded. Lots of sounds of frogs, birds and even a beaver. Sean even gave me some fresh eggs upon my arrival. Recommended.

Weekend Trip to Cedar Creek Campground at Elease

We loved our camping experience. It is so beautiful, clean and peaceful. Michael went above and beyond for us.

3 nights at Cedar Creek Campground at Elease

We wanted a quiet peaceful few days someplace to unwind and rest. We found it! The quiet allowed us to get some needed rest and the full hookups and WiFi were a blessing! It was all we could have hoped for. They have about 15 sites total, some for tents, some for boondocking with your rv, some graveled, some grassy, some remote tent sites but only 1 with full hookups and paved. There are several hiking trails, one porcelain flush toilet, a dishwashing station and an outdoor shower for campers to use. The grounds are beautiful and well kept and the hosts are very kind and helpful. If your looking for quiet, peaceful relaxation, we highly recommend!!

1 night at Sugarneck Glamping Resort, NC

The accomodations were excellent! You would not find a hotel as well appointed as this site, and it still would not contain the ambiance nor character of the setting. I will definitely be staying at Sugarneck again!

2 nights at Cedar Creek Campground at Elease

Great campground! Clean, quiet, and peaceful. No cell service, which isn't necessarily bad! They have wifi if you're in the spots close to the house. Really nicely landscaped, and laid out.

Weekend Trip to Idlewild Farm Stays

We loved the animals and the welcoming atmosphere. Beautiful, quiet, just right for us!

Weekend Trip to Idlewild Farm Stays

This is a very peaceful setting! Quiet, friendly people, just what we were looking for!

Weekend Trip to Rural Chapel Hill Forestry Stay

Amazing secluded spot but close to town. We will absolutely be back. So incredibly peaceful. Great trails.

1 night at Cedar Creek Campground at Elease

Nice camp under the pines. Well maintained with amenities like a clean toilet, firepit and hiking trail. Had the place to myself the night I stayed.

3 nights at Rural Chapel Hill Forestry Stay

A great quiet spot to get away for the weekend. You feel away from it all but still close to things if you need that. The other site is far enough away that you don’t hear your neighbors or the host family at their home. Bekah was a great host & super friendly. We stayed in the wooded spot. There was a nice breeze & the sun still comes through enough throughout the day for a nice hammock nap. It’s a pine forest so prepare for ticks who love that kind of environment. We found several on our shoes & pups while there. There is also service if you wind up having to work while out. 😬 The pups also loved the freedom to roam the trails. We’ll go back again to check out the field site.

Weekend Trip to Idlewild Farm Stays

We found this campground while trying to find a place to park our RV during our trip to Rockingham for the NASCAR truck and Xfinity races this past weekend. We were not familiar with the area, and information was not readily available online for camping options. We were quite pleased to find this option. It was a very quiet area, and had plenty of space to maneuver our 36 ft. toy hauler into our spot. We had a water and electric hookup, but sewer was a porta john tank across from our spot. I wasn't sure how that worked, so we opted to drive to a Love's Travel Center on our way home to dump our tanks. Host was very communicative, though due to our plans, we never got to meet in person. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

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.
