The whole weekend was great. The kids caught some fish and released them. The creek was our favorite thing. Took our chairs over to it and sat there. Great place to camp.

We loved camping there, the woods by the creek was a peaceful place to set up the tents and hammocks to sleep. The water was a huge hit for the kids and even for the adults.
The only improvements I think would be good is a more stable fire grill. And the toilet situation was a little unique and not a big hit.
Overall lovely time and would return!

The site was very nice. The fishing was epic. My son caught a massive large mouth and a monster catfish. We probably caught 80+ fish in 3 days. Plenty of 1-2lb bass. We also caught bull frogs at night. Such a nice property.

SUCH a great spot for rent camping. My girlfriends and I live in Charlotte and it was less than an hour away, but felt so far removed from the city. We were so happy we chose this spot. My dogs loved being able to roam free and swim too. Next time we want to bring paddle boards because the pond is perfect for something like that. On the other side of the pond there is this beautiful shaded area with a creek running through and it was a slice of heaven. HIGHLY recommend this spot for a secluded option, which is what we like best. We will most definitely be back again asap!

We LOVED this site! We knew the weekend was going to be rainy but still wanted a quick getaway. The camper was perfect! No taking down a tent in the rain or setting it back up to dry off when we got home. They had everything we needed. All we had to take were sheets, a blanket and our pillows.
The site was secluded. We could hear owls, crickets and frogs. The fire pit with a cooking grate was all we needed. There were extra chairs, a tiki torch with bug repellent, a table and a toilet. The beds were SUPER comfy and there was plenty of room for us and our kids. The creek was crystal clear and the boys loved catching crawdads and looking for fish. When it rained, we played cards under the shelter.
Salem was responsive and delivered firewood to our site and had everything ready and waiting for us.
We will definitely be back! So glad we found this place and it was available for our last minute trip. This was so much easier on us than our usual camping trips. It really is the best of both worlds!

This campsite absolutely lives up to its name - Peaceful Easy Feeling.
The whole weekend felt like nature showing off: dragonflies twirling around us, birds singing like they were in concert, and the lake buzzing with life. We spotted koi, fish, minnows, snapping turtles, and even a surprisingly cute little watersnake who was (quite proudly) having frog for lunch = front-row seats to the circle of life! Afternoons floating on personal rafts were pure bliss, evenings cooling off in the creek were refreshing, and nights by the firepit were perfection. Salem was such a kind and accommodating host, which made everything feel even more easy and welcoming. It all came together to make the weekend unforgettable — peaceful, easy and beautiful.

The camp is well aptly named. You absolutely get a peaceful easy feeling and it won’t let you down. Such a relaxing place to get away from the world. The pond and campsite were very clean and supplies, if needed, were only 10 minutes away. The dogs had an awesome time in and out of the water and the canoe provided was a nice bonus.

We really enjoyed this spot along with our dogs 🐕 Our one dog especially enjoyed the pond for fetching sticks! The canoe was a fun touch and we enjoyed some laps around the pond trying to spot the koi fish. The owls were hootin and hollerin throughout the day and night which was really cool
🦉 We also heard some turkeys our first night and the next morning.

Great isolated location. Frogs and other night critters sing you to sleep. Tent pad is excellent! Be sure to check out the town of Gold Hill.

Had such a fun time! Site was very private and away from all the hustle and bustle (couldn’t hear anything but nature). Host was attentive and brought us extra firewood :) property had well managed trails and our dogs enjoyed their off leash privileges.
10/10 would camp again!

This place was absolutely perfect! We had such a fun time camping, canoeing, and exploring the woods! The stars were gorgeous at night and we could hear the frogs and the barred owl calls. Couldn’t have asked for a better camping destination! We were able to drive right up to the camp site and had plenty of room to relax and explore.

We had a great time! The hosts have water (and wood if purchased) ready for campers when they arrive. Really nice, clean area to hangout and plenty of spots to set up tents. We appreciated the wood, water, & watercloset available.

We loved spending the weekend here! It was so peaceful, quiet, and private. It was easy to get to with clear instructions and signs leading you to the campsite. We loved using the canoe and fishing off the dock! Salem was a responsive, helpful, and kind host. I highly recommend staying here. We are hoping to come back in the summer!

This was an amazing camp area! Loved the privacy and the area around to explore. We went on a rainy weekend and still had the best time! The host is very communicative and helpful. Definitely going to book again in the future

This campsite was great! It was super peaceful and secluded. We were able to allow our dog to run around without any fear of other people/animals around. Salem was very responsive and helpful. We will be back!

This place was perfect for a car camp. The site had plenty of space, it was clean, the water provided was useful and the seclusion was exactly what we were looking for. We usually go to a national forest to camp, this site has spoiled us now. We are definitely coming back. Thanks Salem.

Perfect spot for a boys weekend. 5 dads and 5 kids. It was nice being able to sit at the fire pit and watch the boys ride bikes around the pond.
I was able to make it down with a minivan and another guy with a Honda Civic, but definitely a little sketchy. AWD or 4x4 recommended.
Lots of owls on the property! You could hear them throughout the night.
My only complaint is that you could still hear the distant road noise and there was a party nearby our first night with loud music. This wouldn't prevent me from coming back.

This campsite was out of a dream! The road to get to the site was a little bit nerve wrecking (in a sedan) but once you’re in, it doesn’t even matter because you don’t want to leave again lol! The lake was beautiful and everything was exactly how you would want it. Salem was extremely responsive and kind to my many questions. We also ran out of wood on the last day and they brought us more within an hour. We walked all around and down the creek a ways and it was super private. We will definitely be booking again!

We loved our stay here! We had the whole property to ourselves which was well maintained and had everything you would need and more!
The site was really peaceful and clean. We loved that we could camp right by the water and that there was also a canoe to use! We hope to come back for longer next time!
