If you are looking for a secluded campsite deep in the woods, you may want to keep looking. But if you want the ease and peace of a campsite RIGHT ON THE NEW RIVER with everything just steps from your tent, then come out and claim your site!
Redemption: To repair or restore. To make good. This campground represents redemption and healing in so many ways. Our hope is that you will find much peace, joy, and adventure here and we promise to do our best to make it everything you expected and more!
Numerous large manicured campsites in an open space DIRECTLY ON THE NEW RIVER where adventures abound! Up to 4 guests and 2 tents per site.
Newly constructed tiny home provides GLAMPING at its finest! The Liberty cabin shares a space with a few tent sites along the river. With the addition of Liberty, I have limited the number of campers to 4. (Exceptions may be made for holiday weekends). There is plenty of space for everyone and the cabin sits above the tent sites for amazing views and privacy.
While HWY 16 can be a bit noisy during busy times, step into the campsites and let the peaceful noise-canceling river serenity whisk you away. Forest views across the river with endless fireflies and stars that light up the night!
Zaloo's Canoes, Kayak, and Tubes is within eyesight and will set you up with an amazing float or paddle down river. Plentiful small mouth bass and trout fishing just steps from your site. Outhouse w/washing station. Fire pits at each site as well as a large communal fire pit and picnic tables.
Downtown West Jefferson is just 15 minutes away with local breweries, quaint restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, shopping, music, art, and a wonderful farmer's market from May - October.
The quaint little town of Lansing, NC is quickly becoming a favorite stop of mine. Check out the Old Orchard Creek General Store, Pie on the Mountain Pizza, the Old Orchard Creek Blueberry Farm, and Molly Chomper for a perfect day in Ashe County.
The New River State Park is an easy walk, float, paddle or drive away. This park is absolutely GORGEOUS and impeccably maintained, including hiking trails, public facilities, showers, boat launch and pick up, etc.
Just a short drive to multiple Blue Ridge Parkway entry points for ease of access to Boone, Appalachian State University, Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain, Banner Elk, and the Linville Gorge.
Mount Jefferson and Grayson Highlands are also just a short drive away for unlimited hiking and incredible mountain views. My personal favorite is hiking with the wild ponies at Grayson Highlands!
We have Firewood available for a nominal fee. Just let us know and we will make arrangements to have it ready for you upon arrival.
Please respect quiet hours between 10 PM and 8 AM each evening.
Amy's campsite offers a picturesque spot right by the New River, perfect for families and those who love the water. The majority of campers rave about the clean, well-maintained grounds and the host's exceptional attention to detail. While most experiences are overwhelmingly positive, there are occasional mentions of road noise and safety concerns on the deck, which Amy seems attentive to address. Overall, the site is celebrated for its beauty, convenience, and Amy's thoughtful hospitality.
Beautiful well kept camping sites right on the new river. Amy was very attentive and made sure everyone had everything they need and that they made it back to the camp site safe after a trip down the river. We certainly would camp here again!
Amy is a great host and her property is by far the best hipcamp I have stayed at. The grounds are well taken care of and the views are great. Toilet is very clean and the fishing is beyond fantastic. Very well appointed and thw marshmallows and fire starters were a great touch. I will definitely be back as soon as I can with son. Highly recommend.
This campsite was clean and open as shown. The owner Amy was very proactive to our needs prior to us showing up. During our stay if questions arose she was available in a timely manner to answer.
We were a group of 8 (2 in the Cabin) which is beautiful and 6 tenting and had a fantastic time. We will be back.
Amy is still the best host out there, always welcoming and providing some check in treats to help get your trip started! The bathroom option is always spotless and the grounds are clean and inviting. This is the best location on the New River! My third trip here and certainly not my last!
