The name Paradise Ridge came from the area my family settled in during the late 1600's. That place is now called Joelton. I love the old name and I love that my family came through North Carolina to Tennessee, so I decided to bring the name back east with me. Creating Paradise Ridge as a permaculture paradise is my life's work. It is a slow and painful process in a world set on instant gratification but very rewarding to see it step by step each year. We hope to share our passion with you. Learn more about this land: Paradise Ridge is on a dead end road, with a gated community at the top of the mountain. It is a wonderful place in Fairview, NC. A small 5-acre lot completely off grid, we have no animals due to the storm that rocked the area. Most of the property has been untouched for the past 30 years. The small area kept under hand is managed with a permaculture approach to make as little disturbance as possible and to keep it protected for the wildlife around the area. The property has been chemical free for the past 20 years under Paradise Ridge; thus, it has plenty of wild edibles around for your pleasure. Mushrooms, weeds and added edibles for your experience. At the moment, we accept tents, hammocks, and the like for anyone to enjoy this little piece of paradise on Flat Top Mountain. We are located between Asheville and Chimney Rock. There is SO much the area has to offer; it is too much to list here. You can find great food, good beer, and lively music in either direction from Paradise Ridge. Or you can enjoy a simple quiet shared camp fire area. We are in the process of repairing fences, reseeding the pastures, and restructuring the hen house.

I have one acre all open, with only a few trees west for late shade and a small family garden. If you like sun and have an rv to boondock this is your site. as flat as mountain sites get but is stable and within RV specs for leveling. We will gladly mark off the solid/hard ground for your rig.

If you tent camp, hammock camp this is the site for you. A small 20' round area for tent or eating area. Plenty of area for those larger tents as well. You basically have run of the shaded acres on the estate. a new leveled spot created over winter has sweet fresh grass for your comfort. the only real grass area in the woods!

Camp with the horses in open p
Amber and Jerry were great hosts to my wife and I staying in our small RV. Their property had some damage but our stay was still very pleasant. We enjoyed the sunset (prior to spring growth), easy access and exploring the property. Great location with fun local spots and ~30 mins from bigger attractions and Asheville

Thanks to Amber Jerry and Woody for making us feel so at home on their amazing land. Land is intentionally designed providing perfect amounts of cleared space, wild woods, and nice seating areas in between. Animals are all sweethearts and added lots of personality to our time there. Hosts are kind, accommodating, and insightful. So much great regenerative agriculture sprouting about as well. Highly recommend. Thanks for a wonderful stay ☺️

We really enjoyed our stay on Amber’s land! Amber and Woody were both kind and helpful, and they offered recommendations of activities in the area, showed us around the property, and gave us bitter melons! We were only able to stay a night, but we’d happily come back to spend more time there in the future :)

This place is heaven. If you need an escape, just go. Amber and Woody are amazing people and hosts! So welcoming and knowledgeable. Coco is a fantastic dog and eager to show you around. Sweet Pea and Navarre are beautiful, exceptionally fun horses who like to visit in the pasture - who are basically just large dogs. A wonderfully clean campsite. Awesome firepit and many places to kick back and relax.

The site was wonderful and I wish I could have enjoyed it more. I was working a lot , but it was good spot to park up for the night. Woody, the property manager is really passionate about the land and felt bad he couldn't give me a tour , since I arrived late both nights

Amber's campsite was everything my husband and I hoped it would be! Great spaces for our tent, a nice gazebo for our peaceful mornings, a playful dog running around, and even fresh eggs for a small fee! We were blown away by Amber and her husband's hospitality and would definitely stay again.

We happened to schedule during a cold snap that dropped the temperature to -5F. Hosts were accommodating, but we stayed in our RV trying to keep warm. We'll have to come back to see the property.

Amber was a fantastic and helpful host. The fire circle is a beautiful spot to spend the night at and look at the stars. It was great getting to chat with Woody, the groundskeeper, who had a lot of wisdom about the surrounding area. The horses are peaceful company, the chickens lay fresh eggs, and we even had a cold spring water bath in the woods!

Our first Hipcamp experience and it was very special. We planned to stay 4 days in our solar powered 5th wheel and loved the place so much we extended 2 full weeks. If you are looking for a sacred, well cared for, peaceful place surrounded by beauty and surprises, stay here.

We parked our solar powered 33 foot fifth wheel in the horse pasture for the full 2 weeks after we fell in love with the place and extended our stay. Come here to feel what it is to live in harmony with nature. A beautiful, sacred place that is treasured by its caretakers.

Our stay at Paradise Ridge exceeded our hopes in so many ways. The stewards of this special permaculture farm are rare gems with beautiful hearts. Amber and Woody went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and safety. Our time there was peaceful, healing and inspiring. The horses are majestic and gentle, the fire pit welcoming, and the cold showers refreshing! I highly recommend a retreat at Paradise Ridge. We'll be back :)

This place was beyond beautiful. Amber and Woody were amazing and kind. They gave us lots of information on the land and were easy to talk to. This place is a perfect oasis for campers. A big firepit, covered space, small trails, water features, and lots of wildlife and domesticated life around the place. I can't overstate how beautiful it is!

A wonderful spot with the most welcoming hosts in Amber and Woody! Paradise Ridge Estates is an easily accessible location, beautiful, and so well cared for. It has numerous places for tents to choose from, a large fire pit with chairs and lots of firewood/kindling/lighters, a gazebo with comfy furniture that would be perfect in the rain, a clean composting bucket toilet in a building with a lockable door and an automatic light, and the solar shower that we didn't use. Would absolutely recommend and visit again!

Drinking water was available, with an in close compost bathroom building on site.

Good place to to resource
Paradise Ridge Estates
Wonderful people and land, good energy, great to resource in nature. Authentic organic, off-grid farm. I only spent couple nights there, as I was in the area for work, but it would be worth it being there longer, to get to know Amber, learn from her, and help her with her projects.

Amazing, Family-Friendly Experience
Paradise Ridge Estates
This has been my best booking off of Hipcamp BY FAR! My family loved it! The area was clean, virtually bug free, and had a ton of amenities. Amber met us there when we first got in to give us a tour of the property and how to use everything. There was plenty of fire wood, herbs to cook with, clean water, outhouse supplies, and everything else you could ask for. My 5-year-old son woke up early every morning to go with the man who attended the animals, and Amber even let him sit up on one of the horses one of the mornings we were there. We will definitely be returning, my family and I couldn't have asked for a more perfect 4th of July weekend.

We had the best weekend here. The campsite is gorgeous - genuinely happy to spend time here, it’s a great spot for a bonfire or setting up some hammocks. Loved seeing the horses, the chickens, and a bear surprise one morning right outside our tent! If you like mountain camping, this is the perfect spot. Was a little chilly/cloudy while we were here, so the solar showers were a bit cold, I imagine it’s better when it’s warmer - still got the job done, though. Made some great friends here over the weekend, too - we really enjoyed it.
