Weekend Trip to Emma’s Forest Hideaway

We had a very nice stay here. It’s very quiet, tucked up under some beautiful trees. Britt is a great guy y’all! Down to earth, easy to talk to, accommodating and funny. We came in a Class A 40ft, it was a little tight in spots but he’s currently working on that so if we can do it anyone can get in there with ease. We would definitely recommend!!

Weekend Trip to Big Creek RV Park of Saluda SC

Camp site was amazing. Jame's was very accommodating allowing me to switch sites when I realized there was no power on the site I originally booked. Location is beautiful. No light polution, can see tons of stars at night. Bathroom and shower are small but heated and air conditioned with plenty of hot water. Easy access trails to the restroom/shower. Had a lovely time.

Weekend Trip to The Fenn Farm

Beautiful property and clean camp site with power and water.. We came into town for a GA game (go dawgs!) and it was the perfect peaceful getaway for the weekend. It took us about 25 minutes to get to the game (with Athens traffic). Teens loved feeding the goats and seeing all the other animals. Our hosts were gracious and friendly as well. So much better than staying in a crowded, overpriced hotel. We’ll be back!

Weekend Trip to Hesed Homestead

We loved our trip. The hosts went above and beyond to have us have a comfortable stay. I have two toddlers, and it rained a majority of our trip, but would you believe that they set up a busy box for our toddlers so that they could have activities to do inside the camper?? So generous. The bed was comfortable, the hot water was piping hot, the string lights were perfect. We really had no complaints. It was very quiet and relaxing! We had a great time. Highly recommend. We will be back!!!!

Beautiful! Clean! The grass was so soft. Perfect for barefoot walking. Bees and dragonflies buzzing in harmony, like surround sound, while fishing. Lots of big fish being caught all around me making kids squeal and laugh. I became the personal chef for a sneaky, pond turtle who loved my bait. Taking pictures of the beauty was my favorite experience. 100% recommend.

Mistletoe State Park Campground

Camped here in May 2018. We camped at Primitive Site 1. It is a short hike from the parking lot but well worth it. Site 1 is very shady and room enough for a couple tents. You can set your clock by the birds and definitely don't want to miss the fireflies light show at 9:00 every night. It is like nothing I've seen before. We were the only campers in the primitive area and enjoyed the quiet seclusion. There is an outhouse down the path a bit that was surprisingly decent as outhouses go. There is also a shower house and flushing toilet in the main campground which is a stone's throw from the primitive camping parking. Would camp here again.
