Cherokee National Forest

Follow us to Tennessee and dive into the grandeur of the Cherokee National Forest! It’s filled to the brim with scenic forested trails, rushing rivers, and rainbow trout. During the day you can go rafting, and at night you can bask yourself in moonshine (of various sorts) and brush up on your constellations. If you are in pursuit of some Appalachian Mountain bliss, this is the right place to start. Don’t forget your camera, you're going to want to show these vistas off!

Horse Creek, which runs through the area, offers a nice, soothing background.

Twilight Yurt

This a a smoke free, drug fee, alcohol free LGBT and all others safe, non judging retreat. We support people in recovery and it is not allowed on our property. Please arrive between 3 PM and 7pm. It is the perfect get away on a 2 acre wooded nature reserve in a rural neighborhood, quiet, peaceful and secluded.  With walking trails and quiet sitting spots  and a meditation room. Shared bathroom and kitchen areas.

We bought this amazing 2.5 acre wooded land with a spring and creek on it from our friends who already had a huge healing impact on the land. This land is quiet, it is in a neighborhood and back up to a cow farm.  Everyone keeps to themselves,  we have three other rentals on the property to share community areas.

OnTop.camp - NW NC Ashe Co


STATUS of OT DOT CAMP 5.29.25
Welcome! 
Fireflies are now popping and the locust blossoms, wild rose and blackberries have just finished up. Milk weed and butterfly attractants will bloom in the coming month on sunrise mountain and it’s looking good! 
Our farm is vast and sparse,
focusing on sustainability while giving back to the community. We are a safe haven for animals and humans alike.
Situated on and between two peaks of Little Phoenix Mountain range in Jefferson Ashe County. Our sites’ altitudes range from 3100 feet to over 3600 feet, which is a lot of slope and hillside to say the least. As a guest you will be offered insane long views and limited exposure to the oldest registered breed of bovine in the world. Our Scottish Highland Cattle are majestic and fit in quite well in the NC mountainside. Located in the Blue Ridge mountains, we have natural water springs popping out, some of which are tapped to drink from. (10.1.23 currently farm springs are not accessible to guests, shatley springs up the road approx 4miles north has a public spring that we highly recommend)
If you are looking for a camping spot that is only 5-10 minutes from town (Jefferson NC or the quaint Downtown West Jefferson) but feels like you're in the middle of no where, then we have it!
The Blue Ridge Parkway is less than 20 minutes away and the New River equally close.
Looking Forward: July update. We are currently working on provided an all downhill mountain bike trail from 3600 to 3150ft. This path will be double wide for the most part and wide open at first to soak in the se view. Will update when completed! *a ride back up for your bike and yourself will be scheduled if requested
OnTopOfTheWorld.camp
*firewood is available if you pay on site you will have to use Venmo/Paypal 
*We do not allow any harvesting of campfire wood or burning of our property outside of the designated fire ring. We use any downed wood on our property for our family to keep warm and to cut and split ourselves to sell to our guest. A “full nights worth” of campfire wood is roughly a 3 x 2 stacked pile of wood keeping you warm all night. Please let us know ahead so we can prepare it for you

Healing Springs

Healing Springs is a special place. It was discovered in 1884 and was originally called Thompson's Bromine and Arsenic Springs. In later years, the property became known as Healing Springs Resort,&nbsp;and is now simply called The Cabins at Healing Springs. The natural spring is purported to have mystical healing abilities and rumored to have cured everything from poison ivy to rheumatism, indigestion to ulcers. Come, try the water from Healing Springs!&nbsp;

Drink water from the Healing Spring, discovered in 1883

Cozy treehouse cabin, attached outhouse, and expansive wrap-around patio! 

Babbling Brook Campground

Before the Kerr Scott Reservoir was built, in the 40's and 50's, this neighborhood was a local swimming hole and vacation area. Public buses  came from neighboring communities so people could boat, swim, camp, and picnic. 
While we don't have access to the pond, our part of this land still is calling out to people, 'Come,  rest, unload your burdens, and find peace.'  
When we started this project with Hipcamp, we didn't fully realize that we were reconnecting with the history on this property. So, come, take your shoes off, and wade in the creek.  Read a book while laying in a hammock. Sit by the fire and chat with family and friends. 
Come and participate in our little homesteading project, and leave your burdens behind. 
LOCAL ACTIVITIES:
To the west is the Blue Ridge Parkway, which is 30 minutes away. 
15 minutes away is Kerr Scott Dam where you can rent kayaks, pontoon boats, as well as other sporting equipment. Fish, go mountain biking on the extensive trails, and hiking.
Prayer Mountain is right up the road, about 2 miles away.
Heading east, you can find several fine wineries andvineyards that you can visit. There is also a moonshine distillery in town.
About a half hour away is an Amish community that has several businesses open to the public, including the Shiloh Bakery and General Store. They are closed on Sunday and Monday.
To the northeast, about 45 minutes away, is Stone Mountain. Absolutely fantastic hiking, it is also an old homestead that has been renovated and is open to the public.
To the south, there is Rocky Face Park, where there is hiking and rock climbing. Nearby, is Emerald Hollow Mine, where you can go and find, and keep, precious stones  you find in the nearby river. 
There is also a great disk course course, Highland Hills Disc Golf Course, one of the top 25 in the country. There is fun for all ages.
Merlefest, the last weekend of April, is a world class Bluegrass festival, is located right in our town.
Be sure to look at the activities section below for additional information.

The Cozy Cottage Farm Stay, come and stay awhile. Spend time with the goats and donkeys. Sit around the fire. 

 The first level of the Happy Hillside includes a deck, a small picnic table, and the two hammocks (included). Below this level is the outhouse, and additional seating. The tent in the photo belongs to a guest. It is not included. We have a smaller tent you can rent as an extra.

Another view of the Bird's Nest 20'x 20' ft. There is plenty of room for your tent under this partial shelter. This photo has a 6 person tent (144in X 102in X 72 in) underneath the roof with plenty of room to spare. 

The Bird's Nest is a private campsite built into the side of a steep hill.  The 20x20 deck overlooks a horse pasture and a mountain stream. This half of the deck has been half covered by a permanent shelter, and is great place to pitch your tent. The other half of the deck is open air and has a picnic table and chairs.
To the right side of the deck is a campfire ring, a grill, a rocket stove, hammocks, and chairs. 

Walk down the hill to the common area. There you will be able to hand pump water for drinking, washing, and cooking. The dish washing station is conveniently located right next to the water pump.

The ripple of the water over the rocks makes for great sounds for snoozing...

You will have access to a fire ring and picnic table (located at each site), firewood for sale on site (please do not bring firewood from off-site),  clean well water (located near the pond), the creek to explore, our stocked pond to fish, and wooded trails to hike.

Peace, quiet, tranquility and privacy are overflowing along the creek, and hiking throughout the hills on the backside of the farm (and on the other side of the creek) leads to interesting and abundant flora and fauna. The stocked, spring fed pond is 'brimming" with angler challenges🎣 

  Our cows, pigs, sheep, donkeys, chickens, ducks, geese are all eager to meet you, as are we! We currently have fresh eggs, pork and beef for sale on site as well. Like us on Facebook (Harmon Creek Farms of NC) for the latest on what's going on here at the farm. :)
