Tent holiday accommodation in Western North Carolina

We had the absolute best fall weekend at "the Kayaker." We are already planning next fall. The tent had every amenity you could want and was so cozy (I brought a stack of blankets and never needed them)! The bed was so very comfortable. The lodge was much nicer than we anticipated and I don't think I've ever seen a campground bathhouse SO nice! We loved how private our glamping tent was but how easy it was to walk everywhere else. One night it drizzled and it was just so cozy inside our tent to play a game by lamplight with the little propane heater on. The fall colors were spot on and we were nice and close to hiking and mountain biking as well as an apple orchard, Wineries, breweries and shops! Can't ask for anything more!

Such a great spot. The property is beautiful, cozy, and has great views. The glamping set up was perfect for our needs. Having a real, cozy, blanket covered bed was amazing. Tent was spacious and we felt we had everything we needed for our trip. We extra enjoyed the amazing brewery / beer stop down the road called Whistle Hop. Tent came with electricity hook up and a space heater. We camped in some freezing weather and were beyond warm and cozy. There's a cute barn cat who stopped by but our jerk dog scared him off. Bonus points to the host who came out in the cold around midnight to make sure our electricity, and our connection to the space heater, worked after the heater tripped the breAker. Host made sure we were cozy and had everything we needed, even late!

Such a wonderful location! Excellent glamping. The accommodations are very comfortable and the outdoor patio was great. We had such a nice night by the fire pit! We can not wait to return!

I can't say enough nice stuff about the host and property! Even walking through Copper Hill was a blast!

Wow! Awesome place! We stayed here for 2 nights and had the most wonderful time having a campfire under the stairs, playing board games together, exploring (beautiful) nearby waterfalls and spending the afternoon in waterfall infinity pools together. Greg is by far the best host we have ever had - he is communicative, helpful, responsive, personable and goes out of his way to make sure you enjoy your time. The campsite set up had everything you could need - clearly designed by someone with lots of camping experience who knows what amenities make for the most enjoyable stay. The tent was spacious, the beds were comfortable, the shower was easy to use (and warm), and the kitchen set up was easy to navigate. Great stay where special memories were made!

it was an incredible experience can not wait to return again we had a blast and loved it so much

Todd’s place is gorgeous with a beautiful sunset view. It was well-kept and perfect for setting up tent, hammock, and whatever is needed for camping. Todd was quick to respond and direct me to the site when I missed a turn. The road may be a little challenging for a car with very low clearance but it’s worth it!

Wonderful first time Glamping experience! They thought of everything! Would definitely go back!

John was an awesome host! We all talked for hours, it felt like we knew each other for years right away. He is a very friendly and kind person. If you get the chance to visit his shop, do it. His cigar box guitars are incredible and his collection of gnomes are second to none lol. John’s tent was clean cozy and surprisingly warmer than we expected on a cold night. His property is beautiful with an incredible view of the mountain as your back drop. His animals we very friendly (especially if you’re able to feed the) we were even able to cook some breakfast over the fire from some of his fresh eggs. This was on of the more beautiful scenery locations we stayed at. We will certainly be back here again.

this was my second time here and I once again had a great time. i had to borrow the air pump from the Marina and I really appreciated not having to pay a fee and the Marina was more then happy to help. very friendly fellow campers in the RV at the top of the hill from the tent site. they were just as friendly and helpful during our first stay as well. honestly y'all have made us feel more then welcomed during both of our stays. my son is 8 and has special needs and can sometimes be loud or overwhelmingly friendly to strangers but never once has anyone made us feel like we were a bother and I can't tell you how appreciative I am of that. we will definitely be coming back. thank you for the hospitality of the entire Marina!

Elizabeth was so kind and helpful with check in walked me through the campsite and how everything worked. Was incredibly responsive before I got there and during my stay. Definitely will stay again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property was amazingly beautiful and clean. It was so comfy and quiet, and perfectly convenient to so many attractions. Ryan was the perfect host and we hope to book with him again.

This location was magical. Love the outdoors bathtubs and the fire pit. I would 100% stay again if given the opportunity. The shops and restaurants nearby are also an added bonus.

This tent is the perfect place to escape to for a relaxing weekend! It was the perfect step up from camping. It’s also the perfect place to enjoy a good thunderstorm! If it’s a cold night, it does get a little chilly, but the space heater definitely helps and the comforters were quite warm! I definitely hope to come back again!

This is a very nice camping spot and we hope to visit again. We were a little confused when we first arrived because it was not clear which campsite we were assigned. A quick phone call to William cleared it up. I recommend double-checking and asking ahead of time if you are confused. The cooking area had two fixed grills, picnic tables, and hammocks with a terrific view of the sunset. The showers were nicer than I expected with plenty of hot water, soap, and shampoo. The first night we were greeted by a kind Vietnam vet who ensured everything was in working order and made hiking recommendations. Overall a top-notch experience.

Everything was great! We got in later and it was such a nice feeling knowing our tent was set up when we arrived. The place was beautiful and clean. Gerard gave tips on local hikes and check up on us. We cannot wait to go again!

My boyfriend and I stayed here with our dog for the Clemson game. It was the perfect spot and only 10 mins to downtown and the stadium. We loved being in nature. We already want to go back.

Highly recommend this place to anyone! This experience will be remembered for years to come for our family. Ivy was super responsive and the tent decor was beautiful and warm. We will definitely be coming back.
