Get back to nature at this incredible private campground nestled in the Great Smokey Mountains of Western North Carolina! This tranquil campground offers a peaceful place to unwind while listening to the wonderful sights and sounds of nature at its best! There are 11 unique and cozy campsites to choose from as well as a shower and portable potties. This campground has a pond for fishing and swimming, a creek running along the campsites and is surrounded by the most magnificent and beautiful foliage and wildlife! Prepare to have the most peaceful sleep under the glorious celestial stars of Western North Carolina! *We also have a sink for dishes alongside the shower house as well as a drinkable well water spicket in the back of the campground! *We are also located close to stores for your convenience as well as many nearby attractions! * Please contact us regarding pets before booking… *We recommend checking in before 10 pm…. The property gets really dark and hard to navigate at night without being shown where to go! If for any reason you will be getting here later please inform us upon booking so we can plan for your arrival! *During the months from November to April we cannot guarantee our shower will be operational due to freezing temperatures. However, during warm periods during those months we do have our shower available. If you’re looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle of life and return to the simplicity of nature this is your spot! We hope to see you soon!!

Great camping spot that’s close enough to town, but far away enough to feel like you’re camping in the woods! The drive leading up to camp and the pond are very pretty, and the camp has all of the amenities you could need. I was at site 10 and it was secluded and peaceful. All of the hosts were very attentive as well. Would definitely recommend!

Great place if you like peacefulnes
We showed up in the early evening and were greeted by the most friendly people. They guided us to the campsite which was massive (site #1). We only stayed for one night but we will definitely book there again.

Stayed at site 10, it’s right next to a small creek, nice and soothing. The site has a lil more grade but we made it work. Bring firewood!

The hosts were excellent, checked in with us before we arrived, took us to our spot when we got there and the site was excellent! We extended our stay a few extra days and they made it so easy. Even provided firewood for a lot less than local stores. Highly recommend and we plan to return someday!
