Lovely Farm Stay in the Mountains!
My husband and I had an awesome time at Papa’s Farm. The host, John, is so incredibly friendly and clearly loves sharing his farm with others. He was so accommodating- more than we ever expected. The campsite is situated right on the creek, which is so serene and calm. It was close enough to the house that we felt safe, but secluded enough that we felt we had the place all to ourselves. John let us use any surrounding wood that had already fallen to the ground for firewood, which was so nice not having to “buy” actual firewood- a lot of other places state you must buy your ownWhen we arrived. He even had a large freshly filled water cooler and a compostable toilet in the campsite, which we weren’t expecting but was so great. John helped us carry all our gear to the site on his tractor, which was so kind and helpful. We absolutely adored all the friendly animals and made sure to give them all their daily attention and pets! While in the area we explored Hanging Rock State Park (about 20 minutes from the site) and Pilot Mountain (about 12 minutes). We also ate at a charming little restaurant on our way out of town, The Tilted Ladder, which I highly recommend for a low-key lunch atmosphere. All in all, this was a fabulous weekend getaway!

We loved camping at Papa John’s! Our kids loved Papa John and the farm. Such good people out there, we definitely want to go back. Had a lot of space & a wonderful view at Deer Field.

Perfect camping spot!
Chickens and pigs and donkeys oh my! Papa John’s farm was an amazing camping spot. There is lots to do and many animals to pet. I came with my dog and my grandmother, John made us feel like family. His farm is conveniently located near town but secluded enough to spend the night listening to the crickets and the crackling of our fire. 10/10 Would recommend staying here!

Papa’s farm is the best!
We cannot recommend papa’s farm enough! He is such an amazing and interesting host. Feeding the animals was the cherry on top! You have to try the chicken eggs they are amazing!
