My family had a great time! Nice, simple little camp spot in the woods with a campfire. Completely secluded and quiet. Great views of the stars with no lights. Lots of wood around, but would recommend bringing some of your own. Small wildlife and deer. The host was very helpful. I would recommend! 👍

I arrived very late at night my first night on a road trip and they were very accommodating. It was a little confusing coming in, but I just drove slowly and followed the grass line towards the back of the property. We went to Diamond Hill Mine and this location was a great distance away. It was nice and quiet… perfect for a weekend away.

Love to care that he gave us come checked on us and stop by to see us very nice sight definitely will recommend this to others and we'll be back. If anyone is looking for a nice quiet place to relax this is it at reasonable prices

Pic on the right shows a 33ft pull type camper behind a crew-cab GMC with room to spare. I don't mind helping people back in. The slide outs were close to the tree and some rigs are better than others. Had a fifth wheel on this site. It was less than 40ft and didn't fit as well as a 30ft but still was room for the tow truck and a small car.

We camped for 10 nights. Very quiet other than the birds singing. We enjoyed visiting with our children and grandchildren who all live in the area. Our host, James, was very nice and accommodating. Our campsite was a mix of sun and shade. The kids had a great time kayaking and fishing in Big Creek which borders part of the property. It was like camping in the middle of the woods, but close to the little town of Saluda. Thank you James. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Site 10 with custom powered picnic shelter.

James was very accommodating around my plans to arrive changing multiple times due to distance, crazy weather and other delays. The camp sites are very well kept up, very tidy. James delivered hardwood to my site while I was away and included some pine for starting the fire. I look forward to checking out Big Creek RV Park when I’m in the Greenville SC area again. 5 stars!

A great night stargazing last night, complete with a shooting star. Absolutely no light pollution from the site. Very low noise except frogs in the distance and light breeze in the trees. We’ve added this one to our favorites list and plan to come back. Great host on a working farm!

What a cool spot! We stayed on the far right side of the property and there was a private trail to a firepit. Far enough away from the owners house to have privacy. Dylan was so nice and accommodating, he built us a table! I absolutely would recommend if you're OK with limited amenities. Lots of cool places to hike such as Victoria Bryant State Park and is only 15 minutes away from downtown elberton.

I've been doing a lot of gravel riding on my bicycle, and this site is perfect for it. Big Creek RV is conveniently located right next to the roads I've been riding. I can't wait to take a kayak next time since it's situated right by the water.
