Papa's Farm offers a charming camping experience, where guests feel like they have a piece of the farm to themselves. The hosts are consistently highlighted as welcoming and knowledgeable, providing personal tours and sharing insights about the farm animals. The site's proximity to local attractions like Pilot Mountain and Hanging Rock State Park, combined with the serene creekside location, makes it a favorite among visitors. Despite the rustic amenities like a composting toilet, campers appreciate the peaceful atmosphere, ample space, and the opportunity to interact with farm animals.

Really enjoyed our stay on John's farm. Felt like we had half a farm all to ourselves. Easy drives to nearby hiking. John was very welcoming and gave us a great tour of the farm. Definitely would go back.

We loved tent camping on Papa’s Farm. The place near creek was very private, clean, and cozy. The owners are friendly and responsive. Their animals are so cute. We were lucky to watch new born turkey babies, donkeys and piggies.

Great place to stay and was very accommodating of us getting there relatively late. Only has a composting toilet but better than nothing. Would definitely recommend staying here if hanging rock state park is booked up. Plus it has better cell service and a view of pilot mountain.

Would highly recommend the Riverside camping location at Papa’s Farm. Two wonderful hosts and couldn’t have been more hospitable and welcoming. Beautiful property and surrounding town! Thank you!

Had a great weekend. Definitely grab some eggs! We got a dozen when we got there and snagged one for the road.
