STATUS REPORT: totally intact after hurricane. No damage and the land is not flooded. Even RVs can drive to the creek. Attention RV and van-lifers, here's your safe haven! Introducing a brand-new listing, and I'm seeking your assistance in navigating the ins and outs of hosting. Located just 25 minutes from downtown Asheville, this property sits in a rural, fertile valley, offering breathtaking views to the north and south. Encompassing a total of 23 acres, 5 of which are nearly flat and ideal for parking/camping, while the remainder provides excellent hiking opportunities. A charming bubbling creek, a storage barn suitable for construction or running a business, and the promise of future hydro-power with solar and a battery bank by the creek add to the property's appeal. For those parking near the main house, a 120v extension cord is available for power and internet access. Alternatively, if you prefer to park by the creek, please note that there is currently no power, internet, or water available in that area, though plans are underway for hydro-power with solar and a battery bank. IMPORTANT NOTE: heavy rains turn this area into a mess, it can be tricky to get in and out after a big rain. You are welcome to park at the top by the barn and walk down with a tent, but your RV could get stuck, so keep that in mind. Anticipate future offerings with RV power hookups. Presently, the amenities are somewhat rustic, serving as a trial to gauge interest. Composting outhouse is available now!. Rainwater and shallow well water are provided. Looking for a place to park your vehicle while you convert it into your home on wheels? Happy to set that up with power, water, and even a barn in which to work. Feel free to reach out with any questions or suggestions; your input is appreciated!

Country setting
Nice quiet location along the creek. It’s a great place to detach and just enjoy being outside. We stayed pulling our 32 foot travel trailer off grid.

Great spot!
Great location! Very scenic and serene. Super peaceful spot and yet close enough to downtown Asheville. Best of both worlds!

Great camp for pet owners!
Such a peaceful and beautiful spot to park. Only 25min from Asheville. No cell service down at the flat field near the creek, but you can walk or park up closer to the barn and connect to Reid’s WiFi. I enjoyed disconnecting and having to be intentional about getting online. The sound of the creek is so peaceful and it was wonderful to take a dip in the deep section. Reid is an excellent host and offers great amenities (option to plug in, use water hose, and an outhouse!) for the price…unbeatable! My dogs and I were super comfortable here and were happy to spend most of the day at camp, leaving only to catch a hiking trail about 25min away in west Asheville. Highly recommend!

Lovely Campsite
The campsite is gorgeous and has plenty of space. We stayed right by the creek, so be prepared for extra condensation if that is where you choose to set up. Reid was great and helped us set up our fire.
