Group trip
Had a great experience, not far away from West Jefferson or Gratsin Highlands State Park (Virginia). Host was personable and very accommodating. Would definitely recommend staying here. Also has a cabin coming soon on the same property as the camper site. The neighborhood cows were respectful of the morning and didn't start talking until they saw people.

It was a cool little spot! We came in October and the water was low, so if you need water access be sure to ask the lake levels before you go. The yurt had all the comforts of home and Briana was extremely responsive and helpful! She provided water jugs for us so we wouldn't have to haul in our own.

We had an amazing time! The views were absolutely gorgeous! The firewood bundle was a great choice to add on. We will definitely be booking again!

Great spot! You can pack light, as most of what you need is already at the site. Host was very responsive, though we did not need much, as everything was provided. Quiet, peaceful, and private. We had two dogs with us (mine is reactive/fearful) and it was secluded enough that I did not feel that I needed to worry too much during our stay.

Great site! The view is spectacular, especially watching the sun rise in the morning and the shadows crossing the valley in the evening. The weather was nice so we left the rain fly off our tent. It was so nice being able to see so many stars with no light pollution. I had also forgotten what silence sounded like...I haven't slept this good in a while! There is a huge fire pit and wood available close by for purchase on Venmo. We were originally planning on setting up camp and then driving to find a hiking spot but we just ended up hiking the property, then coming back to our chairs and that spectacular view! We are local and came in for a quick one night stay to test out some new boondocking equipment and to see if the site would be good for the trailer we are purchasing next year. After climbing the road, I now see why they limit trailers to 20 ft. While we won't be bringing our trailer up here, we'll definitely be back in the tent!

We loved camping at this site! The site was level and had all the hookups in one spot. It was very peaceful and quiet even though there were others nearby. There are bathrooms and a showers if needed which was nice to have that option. This was our first time camping with an RV and we didn’t have any problems in our time here.

Weekend Trip to Yurt At Lake James And Fonta Flora
Easy to get to, very responsive host, reasonably secluded, and secure. My wife and daughters had a great time, the hosts provided all the amenities you might need. Highly recommend if you are looking for a glamping weekend getaway.

This was our second time staying on Rachel’s land, and it was just as amazing as the first. The views are absolutely unbeatable — waking up to the mountains wrapped in morning fog and ending the day by the campfire with a wide open sky is something special. The site is peaceful, private, and well cared for, making it easy to relax and enjoy nature. Rachel is a thoughtful host and makes the experience smooth from start to finish. Highly recommend for anyone looking to truly unwind and take in the beauty of the Blue Ridge.

1 night at The Human Spirit
What stands out is the view! The site was well maintained and secluded. On the drive to site on the dirt road, 4 large dogs followed us for a long stretch. They were not afraid to walk in front of our truck, while the others stayed close to the sides. I was concerned I would hit them. But it just added to the adventurous drive to the top. Also, make sure to push in the lock after you add the code. If you pull it, it will not open.

19 ft pop-up camper
Absolutely private with a beautiful view, you definitely don’t have to worry about seeing other people or buildings or roads. If you want to get away for a weekend, it was beautiful. The drive up the mountain was a little more challenging than we were expecting. We have a F250 which generally would’ve had no problem, but because we had a camper on top, it was weighing it down a bit.

Peace and quiet. Loved the lake and the yurt. I said it is a little hard to get down there and back out but since you don't have to take a whole lot it's not terrible.

We had the most incredible few nights and have never had such hospitable and lovely hip camp hosts. We had 4 small kiddos and the host greeted us with a smores kit for them which they spoke about all weekend. The gazebo with solar lights and beautiful pond were just magic at night. You are surrounded by mountainous pastures and the host has highland cows/donkeys/chickens etc - our kids highlight was getting pears and apples down from the trees to feed the animals with the campsite host. 10/10 would stay here again and recommend anyone to book in Drifters Ridge.

This was a perfect start to a North Carolina road trip, just me and my dog. Peaceful and remote with amazing views. Explored the trails, had a campfire, hung a hammock, and just enjoyed nature. We got up early and watch the sun rise over the mountains. It was perfect. The listing recommends a high clearance vehicle and I agree with that.

Weekend Trip to Yurt At Lake James And Fonta Flora
Loved staying in this yurt with my husband and dog for a few nights. It was private, great to hike around from the property, comfortable bed. Also when our lamp had an issue and we needed more water, they accommodated quickly with a new lamp and jugs of water. It was great to relax by the campfire every night.

Nice camp spot far enough off of 19 east to be quiet and tranquil but convenient to both Eastern TN and Western NC. Well maintained spots and not to steep for most small to medium size rigs.

An awesome site. Very very remote. Great sun rises and view. Perfect. The title, "Untouched Nature," is a perfect description.
