21 ft travel trailer

Nice spot central to mountain biking and skiing near Boone and Banner Elk. Used as base camp to ride Rocky Knob and grab a few meals at local joints. 20 ft travel trailer w 30 amp hook up. Owners were great and super helpful on nearby amenities.

20 ft campervan

Great site. A little traffic since it sits near a corner but not at all an issue. Very quiet and peaceful. Nice to have the sound of the adjoining creek as well. Host was very helpful with suggestions of things to do etc. also, great to have power hookup and access to restroom in the studio space. Highly recommend.

Praise Be was the cutest little spot. There is plenty of room for an RV or any camper van of your choosing! The road its on is local traffic only so very quiet. The best part was the bathroom in the lobby!!

Such a beautiful area!

19 ft Class B

Who knew staying on a paved parking lot could be so relaxing? We had a very pleasant night with our two pups on at Cheryl’s Praise Be campsite. It was totally quiet and felt very private. The drive there was through such a beautiful area of North Carolina. I’d stay again if I’m in the area.
