The oral history of Coal Mine Hollow has it that a moonshine still once graced the banks of Camp Cedar Creek. It was run by a recluse, who was always on the move from the Revenuers. A revenuer went missing along Cedar Creek one moonlit night, never to be seen again. The bearded recluse who ran the still, owned two mules, and an old car frame without a motor. Those mules would pull him through the hollow, and up into the mountains, where the revenuers never found him. Some say on a cold, moonlit night, they’ve seen his two old mules, pulling an old car frame past Camp Cedar Creek.

Site 2 - Camp Cedar Creek

Great for families!

David was a great host! We arrived later than expected and David really helped us move our things to the site so we could get set up before nightfall. He checked in on us as needed and we were able to get more water from his place. We had site 1, 2 and 4. We are definitely returning. For kids and families wanting to be right next to the creek, site 1-3 is perfect. It is safe for kids to explore. They found all sorts of wildlife and had blast.

Site 1 - Camp Cedar Creek

Great for littles ones and families

David was truly wonderful. He came down when we arrived late to help us get situated. The creek was shallow enough for little ones and big enough for the bigger kids. The kids played in the creek the entire time. They caught lots of crayfish, minnows and snails. They saw turtles and birds and snakes. We will be back!

Site 3 - Camp Cedar Creek

Large comfortable camp site

David (the host) was fantastic. Our site was very large and flat with tall trees providing a lot of shade. We pitched 3 tents, hung 4 hammocks, and had a large fire circle we all gathered around to cook and hang out. This site is perfect for families with small kids or any big group. David made sure we had wood for the fire and water in the showers every day. We will definitely go back!

Site 3 - Camp Cedar Creek

Excellent large camp sites

David (the host) is fantastic! When I booked he called me right away to recommend the best spot for our family. This place has fantastic very large campsites. Perfect for families including small children. The creek is beautiful and refreshing. Great fire space and plenty of tent spaces. Showers and toilets are primitive but available. You will not be sorry to camp here. We wish we could have stayed just a bit longer.
