ReKindle Camp + Cabins is a welcoming space to rest, retreat, and re-connect. Have a relaxing, meandering stay on the property, or use the space as your base camp for adventures in nearby towns and destinations like Boone, Blowing Rock, Lansing, and Grayson Highlands State Park.
2 acres may not seem like much, but to us, it is an abundance of land to utilize and to share with our guests. You can lounge with the old pines or fruit trees, set up your Eno and take a nap, hang by the community fire pit (we supply wood), grill food over the fire or on the charcoal grill, or stargaze and take in the cool mountain air.
In the summer there may be fruit on the trees (blueberry, cherry, apples and pears in early fall). We are working on edible gardens and this will be in progress during your stay. If there's anything available, we welcome you to harvest and enjoy a bit!
There is a walking path through the woods with spots to hang your hammock.
One of your hosts is a professional chef, and handcrafted tasty food is one of our many passions. Just let us know if you'd like any breakfast. We can provide simple yet delicious options such as amazing blueberry muffins, eggs, bacon, sourdough pancakes, etc! Other meals are possible as well, just let us know if we can. help.

We loved our stay at Blue Bear Mountain. The drive up from Boone is forested, but as soon as you enter the campground, the view opens up and you can see the NC sky: great for seeing the stars on a dark night!
We stayed in the cabin, which was cozy and had a toilet separate from the campground bathrooms (shower was still in the shared campground structure). There is a small porch on the side for enjoying a quiet relaxing morning sunrise.
Mike is a very friendly host and was very responsive to any questions we had. We already saved Blue Bear Mountain as a campground we would book again on another trip up to Boone.

This little cabin was so perfect for us! The bedroom was so cozy and the place was very warm and inviting. Finding it was very easy.
It is about a 50 minute drive to Asheville from it.
It’s right in the middle of wonderful views, beautiful drives and other places to visit.
Highly recommended for a romantic getaway with simple needs and lots of rest needed as it was quiet. Love love love!

The Artist Studio was the perfect spot to stay on a solo road trip from Eastern Virginia to Nashville. The property was stunning and the studio was clean & cozy. Outstanding location 10 min from downtown Johnson City. The host, Pat, left delicious baked goods in the fridge of the studio. My highlight of the stay was enjoying a fresh baked good & coffee in the sun room overlooking the pond. Highly recommend!

We loved staying at the sight. Enjoyed the privacy and the view, and the hot tub. This was in spite of Mother Nature giving us rain for 3 days. Kevin went out of his way to provide us with dry wood; we just couldn't use it. The facility was clean, great condition. It was high-end and we plan to return at another time. Thanks!

Cute cabin with amazing views! If you are lucky enough to catch a sunrise, it’s breathtaking.
Make sure to follow the written directions if coming in at night, as turning around if you go too far is a bit tricky.
Space heater kept the place toasty and cozy.
Lots of trail access near by!

My Family of three stayed in a small cabin right by Elk Creek. We had breakfast on a little balcony overlooking the creek. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Got there during the dark, so not having to setup a tent was certainly a benefit. Dianne is a great host and so very friendly and helpful!

Garry and Dianne were so kind to share their lovely log cabin with our family.
Dianne was especially kind and sweet, and we truly appreciated their hospitality. The cabin was beautifully prepared for us, and there was plenty of space to pitch a tent right outside. Our kids especially loved fishing by the stream and roasting s’mores by the campfire. It was such a fun and relaxing getaway for all of us. We’ll definitely try to come back in the future!
