Site 3 - Creekside Tent Sites
Awesome Campsite!
Really awesome campsite! Quiet and peaceful with the running river behind it. Plenty of space for a tent or two and a lot of perks like the outdoor shower and bathroom, among other things. It’s nestled in the mountains so plenty of nature to soak up. The hosts were very accommodating and responsive, and we were able to buy wood at the location for a couple of nice campfires. Will be staying here again and highly recommend!

Feeling lucky to have stayed here!
Philip’s property is gorgeous! I literally only have positive things to say. The campsites all looked amazing, but we absolutely loved being at Site #1 because it was private and had so much access to the creek. It is the farthest from the restroom/shower/mini kitchen area that is shared with the other campers. We happily traded the convenience of being closer to the amenities for the privacy of site #1. Site 3 looked pretty private as well and is literally right next to the amenities. Genuinely every site looked like really beautiful places to stay, all having creek access and a view of the mountains. Here are some tips now that I’ve seen the place:
Philip’s property is quite a bit cooler than Hot Springs, NC on your weather app so bring an extra sweatshirt or blanket. If you’re driving to Max Patch or anywhere on the AT, ensure that you have 4 wheel drive! There is absolutely no cell service and the wifi can be spotty (especially further down at Site 1) so screenshot your routes beforehand. There is a power strip, kettle, and hot plate located near the shower so bring your coffee and your box mac and cheese!
The entire time I stayed at this site I kept thinking about how I want to come back when it’s blazing hot just to lounge in the creek. 10/10 highly recommend booking with Philip!

A gem!
Philip’s place is an absolute gem. Will for sure be back. Rob was amazing, he checked on us both nights and his pup Buddy was a sweetie. This place is great, the amenities alone were clutch ( trash can, fire pit, chairs, picnics table, porta potty, outdoor shower, sink for dishes, mini fridge, hot plate, adorable chickens, beautiful creek). It’s rare to find those types of amenities while camping on the land for such a reasonable price while also looking at beautiful views. Will be back as soon as possible. Thanks so much Philip!!!!

Great place to camp! Gorgeous area and very sweet neighbors. Phillip and Rob were super accommodating to my concerns prior to arrival and also during. I really appreciated the hospitality and the trustworthiness of these folks.
I will say that the creek is quite loud which is wonderful as white noise! Just a heads up if you are looking for a quieter area. Personally, I really loved the water. Also friendly chickens on property, a plus!

An absolutely BEAUTIFUL spot. The creek, the field, montains in the background... Enjoyed having the charcoal grill, nice large fire pit, chairs, and picnic tableat the site. Having WIFI available was great. The guy that came to greet us (Rob?) was super nice. Gave us some info on the area and brought us some charcoal & lighter fluid to use. A+++. We would love to come back!
