Best in North Carolina: Finalist

Named one of the best Hipcamps to visit in 2024.

We purchased our nine-acre property a little over three years ago. It was a run down, small, manufactured home park with a farmhouse on it. It has been an ongoing labor of love to transform it into a small, unique RV and tent camping park along beautiful Conleys Creek. We only offer 4 tent spots (first come, first served), as well as 4 RV spots. We rent out our 38' RV separately. We have torn down and repurposed some of the manufactured homes on the property. We continue to create numerous gardens with veggies and herbs. We have also planted numerous fruit and flowering trees, bushes and flowers for bold color throughout the year. Our property is completely pesticide free. We currently have 11 free range chickens, known as The Dixie Chicks! Guests enjoy feeding, petting and collecting their eggs, which are delicious! We offer both RV and tent camping on both sides of Conleys Creek. Each site has a grill and fire pit. Fish or cool off in our creek, which is regularly stocked with trout. As a convenience to our guests, we sell eggs, firewood and ice. Enjoy the game room playing billiards or shooting darts. Enjoy the nice weather and play one of our numerous outdoor yard games. We have a very clean, private guest bath house, excellent WI-FI and a dump station. Hike up our mountain range to locate our second creek. Our guests love how convenient our location is to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We are nestled between Bryson City and Cherokee. Close to other charming towns, such as Dillsboro and Sylva, and many outdoor attractions. Enjoy hiking, biking, fishing, tubing, kayaking and whitewater rapids, all nearby our property. This is our home, business and new lifestyle. Come and enjoy it with us!

The hosts were very accommodating and welcoming, and the property is beautiful. We only stopped here for one night along our route, but we would definitely stay here again. The shower and restroom was clean, and the potable water is very fresh way better than bottled water.

We loved camping here at Conley’s. The fire pit set-up with the great was very convenient and having access to potable water and a bathroom was wonderful. This was the second time I have stayed with Anne and both times she has been the perfect host and very accommodating. Very good spot for fishing trips when you are traveling to both Cherokee and Sylva to fish. I would recommend picking up some farm fresh chicken eggs from her also, can’t beat $5 a dozen. 10/10 experience and will be back!

This was the perfect camp site for me and my camper van. The creek was nice and the hosts were great at giving me all the info needed when I checked in. It’s a small campground and easy to get around anywhere in the area. Very relaxing and a good place to go if you don’t want too many people around. I’ll definitely come back in the future.

Argumentative Host Chris

Site 4: Vehicles up to 30"

Gravely disappointed with this site due to Chris. The road to the site is very narrow and my husband did not feel like he was able to back the RV into the site from the right side. We came up with a game plan to back out of the campground onto the road, then turn around and back into the campground so he can back the RV in from the left side. After my husband left to turn around, Chris came up to me with an attitude "Where is he going?" I explained to him our situation and game plan and he kept arguing with me that backing our RV into that spot was possible, we just don't know what we are doing and should've waited for him. He kept arguing with me the whole time while my husband was gone, making me feel extremely uncomfortable and unwelcome. For some reason he kept trying to explain how he can do it better "I don't want to argue with you, BUT..." and kept going on and on how we don't know what we are doing and that we should just let him back in our truck and RV for us. He clearly thinks he can do it better himself and is not afraid to tell you about it. I let him know that not everyone is comfortable allowing a complete stranger to handle driving their rig. Please learn to stay in your lane and only assist when it is requested! We did not ask for help, nor did we need it. There are multiple ways to achieve the same results! Our stay was overshadowed by this uncomfortable experience and left us feeling like they treat women or younger people like they're stupid!
