Brass Camp (Tent site)
Peaceful campsite.
One of my favorite campsites, campground. It is well maintained and loaded with amenities. The pavilion, camp store and bathhouse exceeded our expectations. Our family enjoyed lounging by the stream and the serenity of the property.
We stayed at Brass Camp and it was amazing. The secluded site is fairly level and boasts beautiful partial views of surrounding mountains. It’s the most elevated campsite, but you can still hear the stream below. It was a short walk to the bathhouse and pack room (camp store). There is also WiFi at the pack room.
The staff is courteous and friendly. The overall vibe of the campground is peaceful and relaxing. We definitely hope to return.

River House (Private)
I had to cancel my trip last minute to due to hurricane-related travel challenges, but Robyn was great with communication and answering my questions. I’ll certainly be planning a visit soon.

Fern Gulley (Riverside Canvas Tent)
Camping Bliss
Winding Stair Farm is an amazing experience for camping. You can tour the active Farm, the Grist Mill, and meet some very wonderful owners and hosts. They have a self-service honor System Camp store. Our campsite was FernGully which is right on the Nantahala river in a luxurious tent with king bed and electricity. We had talked about seeing some of the sites in Franklin but decided just to enjoy our stay on the farm. Also the Pavilion is the nicest one anywhere, Timber and Stone with a huge fireplace, comfy furniture, electricity, and a dish washing, cooking and grilling station with hot water. The bath houses are immaculately clean with hot showers. They recycle everything and have a compost pile for your food scraps. We ate an apple or two off some of the trees, and enjoyed watching a lot of farm animals. This place is enchanting

Brass Camp (Tent site)
I really enjoyed my experience camping at the Brass Camp location at Winding Stair. It was very private, quiet and peaceful. The bathhouse was clean and I enjoyed a hot shower every morning. The grounds themselves are beautiful, with a lovely stream running through them. Everyone I met who works the farm was friendly and helpful. I would definitely return.

Group Lane
What a gem!
First off, the property is amazing! The property gave us an opportunity to make great family memories. Group Lane is very unique with the long row of full hook up sites, the shaded area for gathering, the prep table was used the entire time, and your fire pits are the best I've ever seen. Everyone was impressed with the clean bathrooms, I noticed all the little extra's available to us in the bathrooms too. We laid claim to the pavilion Saturday, we appreciated the workmanship of the beams, the comfortable seating, & dinner table. The sink, boiler, prep table & grill came in handy for us to make our Shrimp Boil. We even set up a projector at the pavilion to watch some college football. Your campground and farming area was well manicured and shows pride of ownership. The Mill was just amazing, it was a great history lesson for us all, especially the younger kiddos.
We will be back!
