This Property was purchased by Grandfather in the 70s and then was passed to my Mother. In 2013 I decided to live life differently and start from the ground up building with natural materials and found materials. At that time I was fortunate enough to have the land passed to me and I started building a home for myself and to be close to my mothers home nearby. After achieving the basics I decided that the best use of this beautiful land was to create a place for people to relax and enjoy, a park like environment dedicated to preserving natural beauty and amplifying it through a permaculture lifestyle. 8 years later I am blown away at how far the dream has become a reality and love sharing my space with people from all over the country.

Hello, we are Scott and Lynn. We hope you Enjoy your stay with us in our Back Yard Campground! We started the campground in 2016 after friends of the family pitched their tents down along the creek.

Lynn is a true Blue Ridge native and we both hope you enjoy the proximity to our towns, the mountains, rivers, streams, and waterfalls. The local apple orchards are also amazing! Hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding and rafting are only a few of the activities available within a short drive. So, soak it all in, come back home to Back Yard Campground, watch the sunset and enjoy sweet dreams.

Had a great time this weekend at the Corn Crib! This cute little cabin was a perfect getaway for me, my partner and my dog! Will definitely be back!

We added an additional canvas top to keep you completely dry and sheltered. This site is totally private among the rhododendrons and has a creek you can hear while sleeping.

My husband and I loved this whole camping experience! The tent is super spacious with a beautiful view of the creek. We'd wake up to the sound of happy ducks playing in the water too. I have back problems and was worried about the bed at first, but man! It was SO comfortable. I was even able to use the swing yoga rig at the pavilion to do some decompression for my back. Vicki was so kind and very communicative with any and all questions. I also loved all the little signs that give detailed instructions for any and every thing. 100/10 can't wait to go back!

Weekend Trip to Cold Spring Basecamp

My toddler was begging to go camping, and this was a perfect option for our first kid-friendly go at it. The ability to cook some warm meals on the stove was helpful, and not have to deal with a tent was very convenient. Mattresses on the bunks were comfy. We loved being tucked up on the hill in the Corn Crib.

Fantastic property and stay! The Sylvan Sport Go was ready when we arrived, in an excellent location next to the creek. The host, Beth, was responsive and made it a point to come by and meet the guests. Highly recommend!

This creeks runs the full length of 11 Acres you are free to explore. Check out our loop trail on your trip to the bathroom.

This was an absolutely adorable place to stay! Everyone was very friendly and it was great that there were shared spaces, but I still felt like I could have privacy at my site. The whole campground was well maintained, and perfectly located between hiking at DuPont State Forest and the night life of Asheville!

We had an incredible stay! Vicki is a phenomenal host who has clearly dedicated lots of time to creating a peaceful atmosphere to enjoy the outdoors.

We loved this cabin, the location was great and it was very peaceful. The kitchen items were awesome, our propane was out and they brought a new tank right away. Not a lot of phone service, which was great for our family. Overall, this was a great experience and we will definitely be back.

We really enjoyed the quaintness of Bill‘s cabin. It was really neat having the open air feature because we could sit on the bench between the bunks and watch the fire and relax from inside the cabin. Very peaceful and relaxing space where you can enjoy nature, and still have the luxury of an actual bed and cabin instead of roughing it in a tent. We went with our three young boys just for a night and it was perfect. They woke up excited to explore the property and the cold plunge was really neat too. We will definitely be back again, and probably will bring friends next time too. It was a great experience!

We had a gorgeous trip to Pisgah Forest when the leaves were starting to change in October. Staying on Vicki’s land was a great experience. Everything was clean and tidy and exactly how it’s described on the website. It’s also a perfect location for hikes, bike rides, restaurants, and activities/shopping. We plan to go back soon to visit the chickens!

I enjoyed my stay at Vicki's place. The campsite was a perfect set up and nestled right by a creek. As others have said, there is road noise, so be prepared for that. The shower was lovely and relaxing.
