Creekside Cottage
David’s cabin was cozy and very well equipped! I loved the trillium and bluebells growing right next to the cabin, and the creek was beautiful and clear. It got quite cold the night that stayed, but thanks to David’s excellent bed making skills I stayed warm throughout the night. I didn’t have a chance to spend a lot of time at the cabin and David and I missed each other due to busy weekend plans and last minute emergencies, but I was able to find my way around to check in, and found everything I needed and more in the cabin.

The Viking Longhall
A hidden gem for group camping!
The Viking longhall is absolutely amazing! You can tell its a labor of love because the craftsmanship is so well done. David is an awesome host, brought us hot coffee every morning and helped with any issues we had.

Creekside Cottage
an off grid paradise in the warmer months. We were in the creekside cabin and it was a ways to outhous. Rustic, but we enjoyed the experience and Dave is a real jewel.

The Viking Longhall
David is a great host and the site itself is even cooler than the pictures make it look! Great hiking nearby as well!

Tent Camp at Viking Longhall
Serpent Mound, Eclipse
This place is magical. Scottish David delivers a Viking themed experience with true Appalachian hospitality. He and his wife Ivea (hope the spelling is right) go above and beyond to be accommodating. I left wishing I could take them home with me. The world needs more people like them and anyone who stays with them will feel the same.

Tent Camp at Viking Longhall
Excellent!
Fantastic communal stay! Quiet fun and the lodge that is communal to all with the kitchen area is absolutely spotless. I should be embarrassed to say, but I was looking for a cobweb and could not find one!!! Seriously LOL...
Dave is so incredibly kind and accommodating and laid back. The lodge was one driveway up from the address given which stumped us for a moment, while we sat in someone's driveway. Be sure to not pull in unless you see a sign for the campground. The rivers right along a few sites and I love hearing it at night. All campers and those staying staying in Bonds were incredibly kind fun and courteous.
We had no reception at all on our cell phones and navigation was not our friend that night.
