We are a family friendly peaceful and serene environment and strive to keep that vibe for everyone to enjoy, (so no wild parties) We are just a short drive to hiking, waterfalls, breweries, restaurants and shopping. Black Rock Mountain State Park is just up the road, we are a short distance from Highlands and Cashiers, and about a half hour from Tallullah Falls The perfect place to get away sticking your feet in the cold mountain creek and even take one of the many classes we will be offering in jewelry making and blacksmithing. You can view Shannons jewelry and class offerings at https://www.shannonnoelkemetalarts.com/ and instagram @shannon_noelke_metalarts and Roberts instagram @robert_noelke_customs There are therapy horses for autistic children and adults on the neighboring property, so enjoy their beauty from afar. No feeding or going into their pasture, please respect the horses and their owners. Violators will be asked to leave immediately.Pull right into this beautiful spot just feet away from the soothing sounds of a rushing creek. This spot offers a beautiful creekside tent camping site that you can pull your car right up to, or park your Camper/RV. Enjoy the fire pit in the evening while listening to the crickets and the peaceful sounds of flowing water. During the day enjoy some creekside yoga, or bring your fishing pole for some fresh trout. Just sit back, relax and enjoy yourself. You aren’t too far from the main road but our road is a "No Outlet" road, so there is minimal traffic, especially at night. Fall asleep listening to the creek and the occasional howls of coyotes!! This is bear country so please practice bear safety!!! You might see some deer and turkey, and you may even get to see our neighbor, the beautiful Blue Heron who sometimes makes an appearance. For you bird watchers, looks out for the abundance of beautiful native bird species in our area. Enjoy the evening light show with the beautiful lights of the fireflies. The mountain is just across the street from the main road creek. So much magic around in this hollar!!! Bring your own tent or for an extra charge we will set one up for you. There are therapy horses for children and adults on the neighboring property. Please be respectful of our neighbors and horses, no feeding the horses or sneaking into their pasture. Immediate termination of camping if caught doing so. This is a family friendly, serene environment, so no rowdy parties please. We like to keep it peaceful for everyone to enjoy.

Bear Hollow: Creekside Camp

Shannon was a great host! The camp spot is easily accessible, clean and private. Camp is on is beautiful creek, that is a great spot to fish! Loved the stone fire pit and it was a great night for a fire. The hosts provided a compost toilet in a tall shower tent, chairs, table and solar shower bags. Highly recommend this camp during your travels.

Bear Hollow: Creekside Camp

We had a great stay here. Our pop up camper had a perfect set up right by a beautiful babbling creek. It was very private and very quiet. Our hosts were extremely kind and generous!

Bear Hollow: Creekside Camp

Peaceful, easy camping

Had a great stay at this spot with my friend! I tent camped, and she hammocked (there wasn’t an ideal spot for a hammock but she made it work fine), and we both enjoyed time sitting in the creek. Shannon was a fantastic host and provided amenities I wasn’t even expecting! The compost toilet was clean and handy, and she left us several solar lights we used around the site at night. A few cars drove by during the day, but it was totally quiet at night. This is a peaceful, easy spot if you are looking to set up and chill (rather than hike in) and don’t want camp neighbors. Shannon told us about some nice hikes in the area, so you can still get some walking in, too. Would stay again!

Bear Hollow: Creekside Camp

Beautiful Creekside Camping.

Lots of privacy, hundreds of feet of beautiful creek in an idyllic setting in Otto, NC. What's there not to love? I slept in the bell tent, which was perfectly appointed and comfortably large and warm on a cool evening. There were trails, a firepit, and hosts Robert and Shannon go out of their way to make sure I had everything I needed to make the stay complete and perfect! I would highly recommend a stay and look forward to returning.

Bear Hollow: Creekside Camp

Beautiful area!

Shannon and Robert were friendly, responsive and helpful hosts! The site is easy to get to with Shannon’s detailed instructions and it is a beautiful area. It’s off a “no outlet” road so there is minimal road noise. We loved all the thoughtful details! The bathroom with DIY composting toilet is awesome, the warm water shower bags were great for rinsing off and the lanterns were charged and ready for the night. We didn’t do a campfire while visiting as we had a rainstorm come through, but the sitting area is welcoming and comfortable. Splashing in the creek was one of our favorite parts! We absolutely recommend this hipcamp location. Shannon and Robert are new to hipcamp and chatted about all the cool things they will continue to add to this area. We don’t venture this way too often, but it is one we would definitely return to!
