Site 2 - joyville near boone on elk creek
I felt very safe camping here, which is important for me as I’m a solo female traveler. Diane was wonderful to talk to and was so sweet and accommodating. The bathroom was very clean and I loved falling asleep to the sound of the creek.

Site 2 - joyville near boone on elk creek
This spot was gorgeous! Stayed on site 2 by the creek. Sleeping with the sounds of the creek was so nice. Loved the location, not busy but not too far from areas we were visiting. Host were great, bathroom clean and site was well maintained. Wi-Fi signal was OK but not super strong by the creek, but this is not a deal breaker at all since peace and relaxation was what we were looking for. Signal is better at the top. I would definitely stay again!

Camp Here!
GORGEOUS property! Great, easy swimming- perfect spot for families with younger kiddos or adults alike. Dianne and Gary were not only extremely accommodating, but generous and kind as well. We were absolutely treated like family while we were there. LGBTQIA+ folks- this is a safe space. Hosts are super kind. 12/10 would recommend. Anticipate more camps there in our future!

joyville near boone on elk creek
We loved camping at Joyville! Garry and Diane were very kind and made us feel welcome. The site itself was well-maintained and extremely pleasant. Especially thankful for firewood and an elevated platform on a cold and rainy night.
Site is about 25 min from Boone / 35 min from Blowing Rock. We drove 20 min from camp to hike the trails out of EB Jeffress park on the Blue Ridge. Would love to come back with a group of friends!

Idyllic spot in the mountains
Garry and Diane are the best hosts. They had great communication as we prepared to head to Joyville. They had plenty of firewood and that’s what you need at this time of year! The location by the stream was so nice, can’t wait to head back in the warmer months.

Creekside Camping Charm
Tent camping at joyville was amazing! We booked a last minute campsite and Dianne was such a gracious and kind host! She was so accommodating and made sure we had everything we needed. The location is great - a quick trip to the BRP and Boone, and camping right next to the creek was lovely! My dog loved being able to play in the creek and roam. It was a perfect spot and we will definitely stay here again on future trips!
