You have to buy the pumpkin butter!
Papa John’s land is the first Hipcamp I’ve ever visited twice! My first time at the creekside sight, it was beautiful, secluded, well-kept, and close enough to the house to feel safe. We didn’t experience a lot of wildlife activity at night and felt safe with the guardian dogs protecting the property. Papa John has given me fresh produce from his garden both times I’ve been, helped us carry all our gear down to the sight, and made sure we had dry firewood. Such a great spot!

My boys loved it!
Papa John could arguably be the nicest human alive. The creekside location is secluded. You’ll be exposed to the wildlife but each farmhouse in the surrounding area seemed to be equipped with an abundance of watch dogs. The fresh eggs were great and my boys enjoyed feeding the animals and playing in the creek. 15 minute ride to Pilot Mountain State Park.

A Pilot Mountain Gem!
We absolutely loved staying at Papa's Farm. The location is amazing for its view of Pilot Mountain and its proximity to so many outdoor experiences as well as stores, wineries, and cute towns. The site itself is nice and private with a great fire pit (seriously, the venting makes super hot fires), shade, and plenty of space for a dog to run, explore, and sniff. I highly recommend taking advantage of the farm tour and meeting the animals, seeing the gardens, and just listening to John talk. He is incredibly knowledgable and just a really great, interesting person to have met. We also loved walking down to the creek on the property and it was a great spot for our dog to play!

100% would go again and again!
John’s place is wonderful! He is one of the sweetest hosts I’ve met. He was more than happy to show my son his animals and his fantastic garden. The location is very close to Pilot Mountain, Hanging Rock, Mt Airy, and Winston-Salem. The site is conveniently located and peaceful.
