A slice of mountain paradise
Trout Lily Creekside Camp was perfect for our weekend adventure. Dan was a great host- he introduced himself, and then was off to graciously share his property! There are a few sites to choose from and we were situated on the creek bend flanked by trees and a gorgeous large river rock. It felt completely private. My son and I waded through the creek to the waterfall dam, caught trout, observed wildlife, and slept to a rippling creek right outside the tent. Weaverville offered a great, local coffee shop (Yellow Mug and a much needed warm dinner at the Twisted Laurel.) A perfect blend of campfire cooking and small mountain town exploration. Dan and Mary's description of the property is 100 % accurate and the items that they have highlighted that COULD be undesirable to some were non issues for us! Our attention was on the creek, hillside swing, and fishing- I am normally bothered by even the slightest peep from civilization while camping but their descriptions of outside noises were not an issue. Our nights were quiet, the days peaceful, and we know we will go back! As it rained we played disc golf in the field, had access to plenty of dry firewood, and the trees provided a break from the mountain storms. A+++ adventure! I'm grateful that Dan and Mary are generous and have chosen to share their slice of mountain paradise! Thank you both! Oh and lets face it, at my age I enjoyed the warm outdoor shower a couple times more than my outdoorsy self wants to admit! Extra thank you!
