Very nice campsite. Ken and Lyn were easy to reach, and neighbors friendly. Memorable Thanksgiving celebration with family. Looking forward to our next trip.

Weekend Trip to Corner Pine

Our stay at this mountain campsite was fantastic! The hosts were both exceptionally kind and attentive. Ken recommended a Newland tire business to work on our truck brakes and I'm not exaggerating when I say they might have saved our lives! While the space was a smidge tight for our fifth wheel, it worked out fine. All the campsite hook-ups were pristine and easy-to-use. The location was lovely - set in a charming country club neighborhood with welcoming neighbors who went out of their way to check on us. We love Newland and felt as though we were centrally located to the places we like to visit. Thanks so much, Ken & Lyn! We will be returning, for sure!

Weekend Trip to Corner Pine

My boyfriend and I stayed at Corner Pine for a weekend in a camper van to do some leaf peeping and sight seeing around the Highlands. The site was perfect for our needs! We especially loved the deck to relax and enjoy the moon while playing guitar. It was peaceful and private. Having access to amenities was fantastic, and it was so thoughtful of our hosts to leave a welcome basket with instructions and helpful tips!

Nice quiet neighborhood with a private deck. Bathroom facilities are a short walk up the hill.

Coco liked the pet fenced porch on the deck and the fire too.

This stay was a first for us using this app and very pleasantly surprised and delighted with the spot with easy pull through and comfortable deck with fire pit. The variety of sweet, helpful and welcoming community members in the neighborhood was a plus. Reminds me of a great old campgrounds with lots of woods, shrubbery, unique vacation homes, camp sites or permanent little and large mountain homes. Walking around felt very safe and nice perks with the amenities.

Neat little place to set up a camper. Our large popup fit perfectly, slide out had plenty of room. Pull through was nice but larger campers may have issue with the hill but was perfect for us.

We were very comfortable with the size of lot for our camper. Ken and Lynn were helpful and friendly. Our dog loved that he could lay on the deck watching the day go by, plus we didn’t have to worry about him running after any other dogs going for their walks. The deck was great for cooking on our camp stove.

This spot is in a neighborhood with many amenities. Kid and pet friendly with a nice deck area which helps with those things and acts as a patio/deck spot for your time. The owners were very welcoming and the atmosphere was friendly. The area is convenient to many hiking spots and other attractions.
