Weekend Trip to Neal Creek Camping Sites

Tent camping was great on the property, we stayed at campsite 2, plenty of space and flat land. Very nice that they had firewood available on the site. Also used the swing and picnic table. It was very nice to have a working toilet and water available. Great for just hanging out with the family and relaxing, private enough, not a lot of stuff for kids to explore, but close enough that we were to Kings Mountain Park. Very clean, had no problems.

1 night at Neal Creek Camping Sites

Exactly as advertised. Loved the dry firewood and swing. Toilet was a bit unstable but nice touch. Would stay again!

This is a great location and easy to find. The rustic bathroom was clean and easy to use. I loved sitting on the swing with my morning coffee, listening to the birds and the nearby stream.

This is our family’s favorite spot, and we love the addition of the swinging bench.

We loved camping here! The creek is beautiful and our boys loved catching salamanders and crayfish. We shared the site with my father in law and we were very comfortable and spread out. The seemingly unlimited supply of firewood from the shed was amazing! There is a Dollar General 5 minutes away if you need to grab anything. It was also very nice being only 15 minutes away from all Kings Mountain has to offer. Thank you, David!

Great spot! Beautiful, large shady area. The creek kept my kids busy and we all loved having the swing to enjoy. David is a great host! Quick to respond and takes great care of the area.

Weekend Trip to White Stone Forge & Farm

We had a great night! Easy to find, and the campsite near the red barn is flat which was great for our rooftop tent. Debi and Jeff checked in on us a few times to make sure we had everything we needed! Amazing hosts! We spent time with the baby goats, and our daughter loved seeing all of the farm animals! Including waking up so close to them. We loved walking around the property and looking at nature. The indoor bath was a huge perk! Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

Fantastic space. Looks just like the pictures. Responsive host. Highly recommended.

Weekend Trip to Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

Melissa’s land was so fun to explore for a long weekend! We had so much fun fishing in their pond and hanging out by the campfire. Our dog fell in the love with the cows. We can’t wait to stay again!

This is a nice site! I liked the creek running through. David is very accommodating.

Weekend Trip to Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

Perfect secluded place to unwind and relax. Dennis and Melissa never disappoint with their upgrades to the sites. Every time I go it just gets better and better. Look no further than here for rest and relaxation.

Weekend Trip to Neal Creek Camping Sites

Site was in a good spot, pretty shady and next to a creek. Will probably end up there again for during another trip.

Weekend Trip to Neal Creek Camping Sites

Great spot on a small creek. The kids spent most of their time chasing minnows. Only spent one night, but would definitely return.

This was a great place to spend a couple of days. It's very easy to find, and its basically right off of the interstate. The truck stop at the exit is a Love's too, which is great since I try to stop at those across the country to get the gas discount. This is probably the only place I have ever stayed where they provided free firewood, which I really appreciated. Being in a camper van, I don't normally bring firewood because I would have to put it inside, and hosts (correctly) charge some fee if they have wood to provide. So, that was a great perk, and was much appreciated. Thank you!

Weekend Trip to Rosewood Farm and Agripark

The cabin was cozy and peaceful, by a nice little pond. Could use a bit more kitchen equipment like pots and pans, but otherwise sufficiently equipped. The heater worked great to keep us warm on cold evenings. My son loved seeing the beautiful horses and animals, and playing with the very friendly farm dogs who kept us company. George and their daughter were friendly and nice to chat to. Thank you for a fun stay on your beautiful farm!

Weekend Trip to Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

Thank you Melissa and Dennis! You guys were fantastic hosts once again! We had a great stay. We appreciate all the hospitality and look forward to our next trip to the area! Maybe next time we will have some extra free time to explore the property more and check out the cows!

3 nights at Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

Beautiful property we had a great time staying and so did the kids thanks so much!

Weekend Trip to Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

The grounds are very well kept, and the sites are very level and well spaced. The hosts could not be more accommodating, and they are very personable. They genuinely want their guests to have a good time.

Weekend Trip to Dennis & Melissa's Hidden Creek

Awesome spot, hot shower, flushing toilets, great views of the stars.

Weekend Trip to White Stone Forge & Farm

Super quiet farm, I had such a relaxing time camping here this weekend. I will definitely come back. Really enjoyed being able to get a hot shower. Next time I’ll try the chicken and dumplings.
