The campsite was set up in a very comfortable and inviting manner. It had privacy and the layout was very enjoyable. The camper itself was very clean and comfortable. The outdoor area was very relaxing and it was a great place to retreat to at the end of a few long days exploring the Great Smoky Mountains and surrounding areas. It was very convenient to stay there and be close to many of the local attractions on our list. The hot tub worked great. The fire pit was peaceful and relaxing. We really had a great time staying here. The hosts were very friendly during our limited interactions. I would recommend staying here when looking to be away from Gatlinburg but still have easy access to the National Park and Cherokee and Bryson City. We had a great time and the site lived up to expectations we had going into it.

We loved our stay! The camper was perfect size and it was nice having a hot shower at the end of a long day of activities. Just a stone's throw away from Smoky Mountains Park and next to the town if we need a provisions. The site was very well kept and the jacuzzi was definitely a welcome touch.

A great little camper that is peaceful and well appointed. It does sit just at the edge of the owner’s property, but still private. We had a lovely stay.

We arrived pretty late but it was not too tough to find!! The little spot and camper is so cozy!! We had such a wonderful time! We didnt use the hot tub, but it was toasty and ready for use! Outdoor shower was hot! I loved being able to hear the stream nearby.

We had a wonderful time staying at Private Glamping w/ Outdoor Shower at Private Glamper/HOT TUB/MNTN VIEWS. Our hosts were so kind and thoughtful, and the setup was excellent and had everything one needs for a very comfortable and memorable glamping experience. The hot tub was definitely a highlight for us. Despite a sudden cold front coming in, the camper was always at a comfortable temperature and we never felt cold at night, even with outside temperatures dropping below freezing. Thank you again to our generous hosts for a great stay in this little oasis in Bryson City. We look forward to visiting again.

I was typing up an in-depth review and ran out of space so this will be short and sweet. The setup is at the top and of a long mountain driveway. Don't take any low laying vehicles. The setup is across the street from their place but due to a privacy fence and canopy you have plenty of privacy. (We walked around nude sometimes) Tmi? 🤣. You don't have a whole lot of hot water so if somebody has long hair and they're going to wash it make sure to tell them to turn off the water when they can or just plan on showering separately. The outside showers on the other side of the camper and there's no sort of privacy fence they could definitely add more boards for height and privacy purposes on the top and bottom of the shower. I am 6 ft. Girlfriend is 5'2. I could see out of the top of the shower and I would say the bottom rose up to my knees. If you were to take a young child (little person) superthey're genitals would possibly be visable. Only major disappointment with this trip was the hot tub. That was the main reason we chose this place. We only got one full day use out of the hot tub. The hot tub had an incorrect filter piece on it that affected its heating up? (According to Angela) I really wish we would have known that in advance cuz we would have chose somewhere else or waited until it was fixed. I've never owned a hot tub so I don't know what's normal for them? We minimized use of the Jets and at times kept the cover partially on it when we were in to help hold temp.

Picture this: Wake up in your cozy camper (very clean and comfortable bed) and hop in the hot tub (extra towels included), take a hot outdoor shower surrounded by fall leaves and head down into Bryson City for some coffee and breakfast. After that, spend the day hiking in the Smokeys, come back into town to explore some shops and breweries, then head back to your cozy trailer for a fire and to soak some more in the hot tub.
That was our exact experience- even though it was about 50 degrees and raining by the evening, that actually made everything even more fun, hot tub included.
This site is so unique, convenient, and well designed. You can tell the host takes pride in making it a perfect stay for everyone, with attention to detail (like putting out a Halloween themed basket with Kurig pods). She even refunded money for firewood we didn’t use.
One note: the hot tub was set at 95 when we arrived, and after a few hours was only 97 even though we set it to 104. It took overnight to get up to temperature, but after that it stayed hot and we got plenty of use out of it.

We loved this awesome cozy trailer. Everything was super clean and well laid out. Lots of thoughtful notes around the camper explaining various things about the camper. The hot tub was nice and hot and also very clean. Same goes for the outdoor shower. This was a delightful private retreat that we would come back to anytime!
The hosts were super easy to get a hold of if we had any questions and were super friendly overall.
No major complaints!

We had a family emergency the night before that prevented us from going last minute. We were bummed out for sure. I can tell you that the booking process was a breeze and Angela was very receptive to our needs and questions. We truly look forward to being able to stay.

The camper was very clean, comfortable and well stocked. We really enjoyed the privacy, the outdoor shower and relaxing in the hot tub.
Would highly recommend but suggest bringing bug spray as the mosquitos were out in the early evening.

For my birthday this year my boyfriend & I were going to go primitive camping 1 hour from where we live. Spots were filling quick so I browsed online for hours. I accidentally came across this listing & fell in love instantly.
My 1 hour away camping trip with no running water or power quickly turned into a 3.5 hour away camping trip with a camper, hot tub, mountain views & ALL the fancy necessities a house provides. After my boyfriend & I both had a super tough week, I surprised my boyfriend with this upgraded camping trip & little did I know it fit right into his plan.
I got to say "Yes" to my boyfriend right by the bonfire pit, surrounded by the mountains, & a sky full of stars.
About the site: I don't feel like the listing photos really give the site justice. I arrived late after the sun went down & so the mountain view the next morning blew us away. It is absolutely breathtaking.
My time spent here couldnt have been spent any better. My boyfriend & I checked in as a couple dating, & checked out as engaged. I hope to get to continue to come back to this same spot as its now our special place. I was able to make so many irreplaceable memories here & got to spend quality time with the person I love & I could never be more thankful for coming across this site & having this opportunity. ♡ If you're reading my review to see if you should book it, I hope you do. & if you do, I hope it brings just as many smiles, laughs and comfort as it brought us.
Love,
The Murphys

My boyfriend and I absolutely LOVED staying here for a long weekend. Angela was super quick to reply to any questions or concerns I had and was very nice! The directions to get to the site were very easy to follow. We had such a beautiful view day and night and all of the amenities were great! We really enjoyed getting to use the hot tub, campfire and outdoor shower. The camper was clean and cozy and had all your basics! It was also very close to town which was convenient to be able to drive a few minutes to grab groceries, food/coffee, etc. The local shops were fun to look at as well. Even though there were homes nearby and the host’s house across the street, with the privacy fence you seem to be very secluded. Perfect for a couple’s getaway! We definitely plan to stay again in the future. Also, if you are a cat person, we ended up having 3 different kitty visitors walk through the camp site. We love cats, so it was a joy to see them. To your relief or not, they did not stay and were just passing by.

This was the perfect happy medium between camping and getting a hotel. The hot tub was a great bonus to relax after hiking. It’s about an hour to most spots in the Smokies and the drive is gorgeous! Can’t wait until we can come back

Great lil setup! Felt private, clean, safe and had everything I needed. Super close to Smokey Mtn National Park where I spent most of my time exploring. Absolutely beautiful. I’d stay again.

It's a great spot for the right people! Cute, cozy and fairly private. The hottub was a nice feature along with the fire pit, chairs and gas grill. There are some basic utensils, pans and other cookware available as well. The site is located directly across from some neighbors but there is a privacy fence to help you feel more secluded, if you aren't tall. My personal height seemed to be the only thing that caused some drawbacks. I attempted to use the outdoor shower but felt a bit uncomfortable because I was the perfect height to see directly into the neighbors windows that were maybe 75 ft away. I also tried the indoor shower but literally didn't fit. Again, these are only issues for tall people. I personally didn't love being within ear shot of the neighbors but they seemed to be very respectful of the sites privacy. The road up was a slight bit intimidating in a 2wd but with just a bit of slipage I was able to reach the site no issue. You are super close to downtown Bryson City, Great Smokey National Park and many other cool places. There is an Ingles nearby for groceries and a Brewery Downtown that has some great beer selections you can take with you. I would 100% recommend this site to anyone 6' and under unless complete privacy isn't a concern for you then it's basically the perfect spot!

Just an awesome time in this sweet little camp site. Super clean and great view of the sun rising over the mountain top. Minutes for Bryson City to get groceries. The grill, fire pit and hot tub all set up and ready for usage.
The camper plumbed with hot and cold water toilet shower microwave and fridge.
Best thing it was in the 20’s at night and the camper has a great heating and cooling system. We stayed comfortable the whole night.
Owners home close to the camp site but was very private and secure. Felt very safe being here. We saw lots of wild life. 10 out of 10 in my book! Thanks!

This was our first time in a trailer camping. The whole experience was great. The hot tub was awesome. Great explanation from the host. It was super easy to find. I’m not sure why people had trouble. You just follow the signs straight to it. Would love to come back and spend some more time in the happy little camping trailer. Definitely recommend for a couple wanting to get away. The trailer is about 200ft from another home but with the fence and surrounding woods, I never felt cramped and felt secluded to read a book by the fire pit. Enjoy!

My friend and I had an absolutely perfect weekend on Angela’s land. It was very close to town yet the space was situated at the top of a hill surrounded by trees making it feel very secluded and tranquil. The inside of the glamper was very comfortable and cozy and we took full advantage of the awesome amenities such as the outdoor shower, jacuzzi, and fire pit. The location was also very ideal for hiking in the smokies and making day trips to Asheville or Tennessee.

This is a beautiful property in a perfect location. It is deep in the woods on a hilltop but only a few minutes from downtown Bryson City and a short drive from nearby attractions such as Fontana Lake and Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The camper is very comfortable and well-maintained, with all the supplies you need for a weekend stay, with a full bathroom as well as an outdoor shower. There is plenty of space and seating to hang out around the fire pit and grill, and the hot tub is an excellent addition for colder nights.

Angela's place was perfect all the way around for my weekend in Bryson City.
It really is on a beautiful lot and they have created an amazing outdoor space around the camper. The outdoor shower was my favorite feature, so nice. And all still very close to downtown and the entry to the Park. I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend.
