Deer Creek is a cozy community of Class A and Super C owners located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway in Galax, Virginia. It’s hard to top the majesty of these mountains, and, frankly, we think anyone attempting to outdo nature’s majesty has the whole thing backwards. We believe life in these parts is about appreciating and honoring the epic beauty of Appalachia. So, if you’re up for making new friends and sharing great times in the heart of one of America’s most pristine landscapes, we say, “come on out!
Whether you’re a bass master or a wannabe bass master, our fully stocked fishing pond is steps away. So, pack your light tackle and be sure to include a few spinner baits because there’s a monster down there just waiting to strike something shiny. If you’re an avid angler who wants to catch the dawn bite, choose a site overlooking the Deer Creek Pond, so you can rise, shine, and cast away. Catch and release only, please. The fish help keep our pond healthy.
We completed a beautiful rebuild of our Clubhouse over the 2022-2023 season, so our community hub has never looked or felt better. With a full kitchen and a total of 3,850 square feet of indoor and outdoor space, it’s the perfect setting for any type of get-together. The Clubhouse also happens to be home to our on-site fitness center and laundry facility. So, you can work out while running a few spin cycles, if you like.
Discover our small-but-mighty fitness center, where every workout packs a punch. Thoughtfully designed and fully equipped, it offers the perfect blend of high-quality machines and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re squeezing in a quick session or committing to a full routine, this intimate space delivers big results with personalized comfort and zero intimidation.
Our furry friends also have a great place to play. The dog park is full of green grass – no dirt here! Equipped with a dog station, water, benches underneath the shade tree for our humans, and lots of room to chase a ball or roll around in the grass.
Please note: Rental season is April 15 - October 31.

Welcome to Peak A View Farm & Camp where Rest and Relaxation are a Reality! Come enjoy the beautiful landscape of the western mountains in Ashe County, NC on ninety acres of farmland and forest surrounded by mountain peaks, the New River and breathtaking sunsets. On the drive in, to the southeast you can see Peak Mountain for which the property was named. The mountain is part of the New River State Park and is known for its scenic river views and hiking trails.
Two RV buddy campsites are available on the property. Campsite #1 was originally created for our personal use. Campsite #2, so our fellow camping buddies could join us. Although a short drive from our homes, the serenity of the property always makes us feel as if we’ve travelled many miles. Campsites are laid out in an ‘L’ shape which creates the perfect group camping experience. Guests can choose to camp alone or invite others. Campsite 1 and 2 are reserved together as one booking due to the close proximity of the sites.
The property is secluded, but easily accessible. Campsites are full hookups which include water, sewer and 50 amp electric. Both sites can accommodate any size RV. They are gravel and level which makes getting set up easy. A 30 x 30 shelter with concrete floor, lights, picnic tables and trash bin is nearby, which is a great asset in any weather. A fire pit and chairs are a nice addition for evening enjoyment. Firewood is provided. WiFi is available.
The area is pet friendly. Pets can be off leash, however, you might consider leashing your pet, as wildlife is frequently seen. If your furry friend is anything like our dogs, the chase is on when a deer, squirrel or turkey makes a sudden appearance!
During your stay, take a 7/10 mile walk down to the New River. Pull up one of the chairs on the small covered deck overlooking the river, sit back and take in the sounds of the calming waters. Watch floaters, kayakers and canoe navigators pass by or enjoy your own floating, fishing and swimming. On the other side of the river is part of the New River State Park.
A 15 minute drive will take you to downtown West Jefferson for restaurants and shopping. Visit the Ashe County Chamber of Commerce online or downtown for information on our county’s many attractions and events.

Originally homesteaded and farmed by settlers in the late 1800s/early 1900s, this property is part of the Blue Ridge Mountains. You can still view remains of the old stone wall the original settlers built by hand on the edges of the property! The Blue Ridge, part of the Appalachian
range, was created by the uplifting of the Earth's tectonic plates 1.1 billion to 250 million years ago, making them the 2nd oldest Mountain Range in the world! You will also be able to view huge growths of Mountain Laurel growing in the Pines and maybe catch it in full bloom. The White Pines were planted over 30 years ago.
We are 5 miles from Marion, VA: home of The Lincoln Theatre and Emory-Henry Medical College, and a small community hospital. Also close to Hungry Mother State Park (hiking, swimming, paddling, and fishing), Mt Rogers Recreational Area (where the highest peak in Virginia can be found!), George Washington-Thomas Jefferson National Forests, Grayson Highland State Park (where you can view wild ponies!), the Back of the Dragon (motorcyclists' dream ride on Rt. 16), the Appalachian Trail (accessible just 2 miles away!), The Virginia Creeper Trail, The Crooked Road Music Trail, Bristol Motor Speedway, the Carter Family Fold, Abingdon, VA (Barter Theatre), and Bristol VA/Bristol TN. We are also close to mountain stream fishing, small lake fishing, swimming area & beach (In Hungry Mother SP), wildlife management areas & miles of trails in different parks that offer tons of natural amenities and outdoor opportunities. You will be close enough for day trips to Burke's Garden, VA, Blacksburg/Christiansburg/Roanoke area, Hillsville, Floyd, Independence, Galax, Mouth of Wilson, or the Sparta area of North Carolina.

Convenient to I-81 and Route 16- Back of the Dragon.
We just added a new driveway connection to make it even easier to pull back onto the road!
This area has a very different climate than many other parts of Virginia. We are located in a Köppen Climate Classification Zone Cfb, which is a Temperate Oceanic Climate (or sometimes called Marine West Coast Climate). Yes, the Southwest Mountains of VA have a maritime climate! Think Coastal Alaska, Pacific Northwest, or British Columbia to get an idea of our climate. All of which means our summers are cooler (average of 83 in August) with low humidity, and our winters are milder. So this is a great place to escape the hot humid Virginia summers!
We experience four true seasons, and the colors in the fall season are some of prettiest on the East Coast and perfect for leaf peeping!
We have deer, wild turkey, bear, chipmunks, raccoons, wild rabbits, Whip-poor-wills, and opossums on the property. Plus, the fireflies at night can be beautiful!
Plus, we've yet to see a mosquito!
You will be the only camper on the property, my RV is on site and is used as guest quarters when I have company, but this is rare.
There is no cell phone coverage and limited strength wifi, so unplug and relax!
The Camping Site is part of our mountainside property located in Long Hollow and sits on the edge of 7 acres of pasture, which leads to 7 acres of White Pine Forest you are welcome to use for walking, wildlife viewing, dog walking, etc.. It is conveniently located less than 2/10s a mile from Rt. 16, and 5 miles from I-81.
Our neighbors are quiet but you may hear their donkey braying or chickens clucking. We ask that you do not disturb the neighbors or interact in any way with their animals. There is a Firepit and Picnic Table for your use.
I try to keep a supply of firewood on hand which you are welcome to use, but if I run out you may have to get some wood elsewhere. You can scavenge fallen wood to burn.....

In addition, the ranch is home to five ponds (some stocked and one trophy), more than a mile of trout streams, waterfalls, and hiking trails. Together, they provide the perfect foundation for the establishment of farming, livestock, camping, and community events. All profits of Blue Ridge Ranch go to Hope for His Children, Inc., a 501(c)(3) that conducts youth camps at the ranch. Tours of the ranch are available for $10/person and includes interaction with some farm animals. We pride ourselves in doing everything possible to help our guests have a great experience. We offer coffee during morning hours in our farm store!
We are sorry, but we are not able to allow guests to bring ATV's and motorcycles to operate on the property. There are many acres of hay that we must protect and our agritourism insurer does not allow guests to operate ATV's and motorcycles on property.

Deer Creek is a cozy community of Class A and Super C owners located just off the Blue Ridge Parkway in Galax, Virginia. It’s hard to top the majesty of these mountains, and, frankly, we think anyone attempting to outdo nature’s majesty has the whole thing backwards. We believe life in these parts is about appreciating and honoring the epic beauty of Appalachia. So, if you’re up for making new friends and sharing great times in the heart of one of America’s most pristine landscapes, we say, “come on out!
Whether you’re a bass master or a wannabe bass master, our fully stocked fishing pond is steps away. So, pack your light tackle and be sure to include a few spinner baits because there’s a monster down there just waiting to strike something shiny. If you’re an avid angler who wants to catch the dawn bite, choose a site overlooking the Deer Creek Pond, so you can rise, shine, and cast away. Catch and release only, please. The fish help keep our pond healthy.
We completed a beautiful rebuild of our Clubhouse over the 2022-2023 season, so our community hub has never looked or felt better. With a full kitchen and a total of 3,850 square feet of indoor and outdoor space, it’s the perfect setting for any type of get-together. The Clubhouse also happens to be home to our on-site fitness center and laundry facility. So, you can work out while running a few spin cycles, if you like.
Discover our small-but-mighty fitness center, where every workout packs a punch. Thoughtfully designed and fully equipped, it offers the perfect blend of high-quality machines and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re squeezing in a quick session or committing to a full routine, this intimate space delivers big results with personalized comfort and zero intimidation.
Our furry friends also have a great place to play. The dog park is full of green grass – no dirt here! Equipped with a dog station, water, benches underneath the shade tree for our humans, and lots of room to chase a ball or roll around in the grass.
Please note: Rental season is April 15 - October 31.

Welcome to Peak A View Farm & Camp where Rest and Relaxation are a Reality! Come enjoy the beautiful landscape of the western mountains in Ashe County, NC on ninety acres of farmland and forest surrounded by mountain peaks, the New River and breathtaking sunsets. On the drive in, to the southeast you can see Peak Mountain for which the property was named. The mountain is part of the New River State Park and is known for its scenic river views and hiking trails.
Two RV buddy campsites are available on the property. Campsite #1 was originally created for our personal use. Campsite #2, so our fellow camping buddies could join us. Although a short drive from our homes, the serenity of the property always makes us feel as if we’ve travelled many miles. Campsites are laid out in an ‘L’ shape which creates the perfect group camping experience. Guests can choose to camp alone or invite others. Campsite 1 and 2 are reserved together as one booking due to the close proximity of the sites.
The property is secluded, but easily accessible. Campsites are full hookups which include water, sewer and 50 amp electric. Both sites can accommodate any size RV. They are gravel and level which makes getting set up easy. A 30 x 30 shelter with concrete floor, lights, picnic tables and trash bin is nearby, which is a great asset in any weather. A fire pit and chairs are a nice addition for evening enjoyment. Firewood is provided. WiFi is available.
The area is pet friendly. Pets can be off leash, however, you might consider leashing your pet, as wildlife is frequently seen. If your furry friend is anything like our dogs, the chase is on when a deer, squirrel or turkey makes a sudden appearance!
During your stay, take a 7/10 mile walk down to the New River. Pull up one of the chairs on the small covered deck overlooking the river, sit back and take in the sounds of the calming waters. Watch floaters, kayakers and canoe navigators pass by or enjoy your own floating, fishing and swimming. On the other side of the river is part of the New River State Park.
A 15 minute drive will take you to downtown West Jefferson for restaurants and shopping. Visit the Ashe County Chamber of Commerce online or downtown for information on our county’s many attractions and events.

Originally homesteaded and farmed by settlers in the late 1800s/early 1900s, this property is part of the Blue Ridge Mountains. You can still view remains of the old stone wall the original settlers built by hand on the edges of the property! The Blue Ridge, part of the Appalachian
range, was created by the uplifting of the Earth's tectonic plates 1.1 billion to 250 million years ago, making them the 2nd oldest Mountain Range in the world! You will also be able to view huge growths of Mountain Laurel growing in the Pines and maybe catch it in full bloom. The White Pines were planted over 30 years ago.
We are 5 miles from Marion, VA: home of The Lincoln Theatre and Emory-Henry Medical College, and a small community hospital. Also close to Hungry Mother State Park (hiking, swimming, paddling, and fishing), Mt Rogers Recreational Area (where the highest peak in Virginia can be found!), George Washington-Thomas Jefferson National Forests, Grayson Highland State Park (where you can view wild ponies!), the Back of the Dragon (motorcyclists' dream ride on Rt. 16), the Appalachian Trail (accessible just 2 miles away!), The Virginia Creeper Trail, The Crooked Road Music Trail, Bristol Motor Speedway, the Carter Family Fold, Abingdon, VA (Barter Theatre), and Bristol VA/Bristol TN. We are also close to mountain stream fishing, small lake fishing, swimming area & beach (In Hungry Mother SP), wildlife management areas & miles of trails in different parks that offer tons of natural amenities and outdoor opportunities.

This area has a very different climate than many other parts of Virginia. We are located in a Köppen Climate Classification Zone Cfb, which is a Temperate Oceanic Climate (or sometimes called Marine West Coast Climate). Yes, the Southwest Mountains of VA have a maritime climate! Think Coastal Alaska, Pacific Northwest, or British Columbia to get an idea of our climate. All of which means our summers are cooler (average of 83 in August) with low humidity, and our winters are milder. So this is a great place to escape the hot humid Virginia summers!
We experience four true seasons, and the colors in the fall season are some of prettiest on the East Coast and perfect for leaf peeping!
We have deer, wild turkey, bear, chipmunks, raccoons, wild rabbits, Whip-poor-wills, and opossums on the property. Plus, the fireflies at night can be beautiful!
Plus, we've yet to see a mosquito!
You will be the only camper on the property, my RV is on site and is used as guest quarters when I have company, but this is rare.
There is no cell phone coverage and limited strength wifi, so unplug and relax!
The Camping Site is part of our mountainside property located in Long Hollow and sits on the edge of 7 acres of pasture, which leads to 7 acres of White Pine Forest you are welcome to use for walking, wildlife viewing, dog walking, etc.. It is conveniently located less than 2/10s a mile from Rt. 16, and 5 miles from I-81.
Our neighbors are quiet but you may hear their donkey braying or chickens clucking. We ask that you do not disturb the neighbors or interact in any way with their animals. There is a Firepit and Picnic Table for your use.
I try to keep a supply of firewood on hand which you are welcome to use, but if I run out you may have to get some wood elsewhere. You can scavenge fallen wood to burn.....

Blue Ridge Ranch, established in December of 2020, is located on 440 acres nestled between two mountain ridges in the Blue Ridge Mountains. The property features an established pasture, mountain ridges, barns, and a homestead. In addition, the ranch is home to five ponds (some stocked and one trophy), more than a mile of trout streams, waterfalls, and hiking trails. Together, they provide the perfect foundation for the establishment of farming, livestock, camping, and community events. All profits of Blue Ridge Ranch go to Hope for His Children, Inc., a 501(c)(3) that conducts youth camps at the ranch. Tours of the ranch are available for $10/person and includes interaction with some farm animals. We pride ourselves in doing everything possible to help our guests have a great experience. We offer coffee during morning hours in our farm store!
We are sorry, but we are not able to allow guests to bring ATV's and motorcycles to operate on the property. There are many acres of hay that we must protect and our agritourism insurer does not allow guests to operate ATV's and motorcycles on property.

This site/location did not disappoint - what more could you ask for, a perfect site that’s walking distance to a tasting room with beautiful views.
Access to the site was easy to find and navigate. The site was pushed back into the woods with a cleared space that was flat and perfect for a tent. There was a picnic table and a gravel firepit area. The cooking grate was perfectly positioned to enjoy both a fire and cooking at the same time. There was wood provided which was a nice touch. I also appreciated the trash bin located at the entrance to the site.
We took full advantage of the grounds, the tasting room, and the fenced dog area. Being able to enjoy a glass of wine on the back patio while the sun set was the perfect way to end the day. My dog thoroughly enjoyed the fenced in area - Saturday night I sat at a table in the dog area, enjoyed a glass of wine, listened to the band, all while my dog got the zoomies and played ball.
We took a day trip and hiked 5 miles to explore around Carter Falls and then walked around Mt Airy. Both are highly recommended. This was a perfect weekend for my dog, Journey, and I.
If you are looking for a site that has privacy but provides the opportunity to be social and active - this is the place for you. If you’re looking for complete seclusion, to get away from it all, you might want to find somewhere else - there was road noise, chickens, barking dogs, and screaming kids from adjacent properties. But not enough to bother us. We will be back!

What a wonderful first trip in our trailer. We were greeted by a kind gentleman (sorry we didn't catch your name because our dog was barking). He helped my husband back into our spot, which was super helpful. He pointed out that he put a stack of firewood at the fire pit for us. Then Sarah came over and gave us a little history of the property, including the cool tobacco storage building that was at our site. We also walked over to say hi to the sweet cows and donkey who saw us from across the yard and ran over to greet us. It was super quiet at night, so we got a restful few nights of sleep. The site is within 4 miles of some beautiful NC vineyards, and 20 minutes from a sweet hike at Carter falls. We will be back!

Weekend Trip to Glamping At Fall Creek Retreats
Wow, what a gem this place is. My girlfriend and I were fortunate to be the only ones staying last weekend, it was absolutely tranquil. We stayed in the geodome. Being right on the creek, away from everyone and everything, and still having WiFi to share pics with friends and family made it that much better. We stayed for two nights, checked out and made it to Boone in just 25 minutes to start our adventure down the mountain. Paul was quick to message back when we couldn’t figure out the WiFi password, and checked on us during our stay. Safe to say we would highly recommended this spot!

A few hiccups during our stay were troubleshot quickly – after all we were in nature, living off grid and Mother Nature sometimes surprises us.
From the soothing sound of the creek, to the quiet of the glamping’s grounds, to the well appointed amenities (inside and outside), our stay at Falls Creek Retreat was a lovely way to bring in the new year!
Paul checked in regularly via email/DM; he was a great host from the time we booked to the time we checked out. We felt safe in and around our cabin. We enjoyed strolls alongside the creek and saying hello during our brief interactions w other guests. His serv/grounds guy Ricky was a pleasure to talk with as well.
We had a wonderful stay w our pups and cannot wait to return! Cheers to 2026!

Where to go
Stone Mountain State Park
Visit the 19th-century Hutchinson Homestead, hike 16 miles of trails, or rock climb the renowned 600-foot wide granite dome that gives Stone Mountain State Park its name. The park is roughly 30-minutes south of Sparta and features primitive hike-in campsites (accessed from Widow’s Creek Trail) as well as drive-in options. Every car-access campsite offers tent pads, picnic tables, and fire rings with grill tops. Some also have hookups for electricity and water. A communal dump station is free of charge for all campers.
Grayson Highlands State Park
Anglers will love the 10 miles of streams filled with rainbow trout in Grayson Highlands State Park, situated 30 minutes from Sparta. Book the bunkhouse for larger camping groups or one of four yurts with screen-covered windows and dome skylights. There are also plenty of traditional campsites with electricity and water hookups. Then spend the day mountain biking or searching for wild ponies—the trail to Wilburn Ridge is a top-pick for sightings. Hiking and cross country skiing are available in winter, offering beautiful views of the snow-covered landscape.
Linville Gorge Wilderness Area
Part of Pisgah National Forest, the Linville Gorge Wilderness Area has steep, rocky terrain that delivers incredible backcountry camping and gorgeous views. Often referred to as the “Grand Canyon of the East,” the landscape was formed by the Linville River, which carved out the gorge over thousands of years. Primitive campsites found here are pack-in and pack-out, with no amenities but tons of access to hiking trails and vistas. Wiseman’s View and the top of Table Rock Mountain are some of the best spots to take it all in.
When to go
Most campers flock to North Carolina in June, July, and August. For a quieter camping experience, visit right before summer begins in April and May, or as it ends in September and October. Temperatures stay relatively mild throughout the year, but Sparta does get snow in wintertime, with the highest amount of snowfall in February. If hiking is on the agenda, spring is the perfect time to catch blooming flowers, while fall showcases changing leaves.
