Get back to nature at this incredible private campground nestled in the Great Smokey Mountains of Western North Carolina! This tranquil campground offers a peaceful place to unwind while listening to the wonderful sights and sounds of nature at its best! There are 11 unique and cozy campsites to choose from as well as a shower and portable potties. This campground has a pond for fishing and swimming, a creek running along the campsites and is surrounded by the most magnificent and beautiful foliage and wildlife! Prepare to have the most peaceful sleep under the glorious celestial stars of Western North Carolina! *We also have a sink for dishes alongside the shower house as well as a drinkable well water spicket in the back of the campground! *We are also located close to stores for your convenience as well as many nearby attractions! * Please contact us regarding pets before booking… *We recommend checking in before 10 pm…. The property gets really dark and hard to navigate at night without being shown where to go! If for any reason you will be getting here later please inform us upon booking so we can plan for your arrival! *During the months from November to April we cannot guarantee our shower will be operational due to freezing temperatures. However, during warm periods during those months we do have our shower available. If you’re looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle of life and return to the simplicity of nature this is your spot! We hope to see you soon!!

The hosts were excellent, checked in with us before we arrived, took us to our spot when we got there and the site was excellent! We extended our stay a few extra days and they made it so easy. Even provided firewood for a lot less than local stores. Highly recommend and we plan to return someday!

We enjoyed camping here. The directions were easy to follow. The main road isn't far; a Dollar General is close for forgotten items. The land was beautiful with lots of native plants and flowers. The facilities were clean. The campsites are clearly marked. We were comfortable with the amenities provided. The host was hands off during our short trip, which we appreciate. Note: sites #6 and #7 are in the same shaded area. The other sites were offset and felt more private.

We enjoyed the location. It was peaceful, friendly hosts, and great for our family. My husbands day was made when he caught a HUGE bass out of the pond. We would stay here again

Our camping experience was absolutely perfect. Brandi and Nathan, our camp hosts were very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. I can't say enough good things about them. We really enjoyed meeting such pleasant hosts. We fell asleep to the gentle babble of water over the rocky creek bed filled with pristine water. The bullfrogs sang us a deep lullaby from the pond. There is nothing like having nature sing you to sleep. The camp ground is very well maintained and still yet, plenty of wild around you. We loved the pond! Our 4 year old granddaughter shared our experience and had a blast! She caught the biggest fish! The location of this campground is close to any day tripping that you might want to plan. Although , that was not our objective. We just needed a great get away and this property accomplished that in leaps and bounds! Thanks again! We will be back! Thank you John for sharing your property and thank you Nathan and Brandi for everything!
