Luxury Tent + Hot Tub & Cold Plunge

10 sites · Lodging6 acres · Forest City, NC
Go luxury glamping in this stunning garden of Eden! Enjoy the wood-fired hot tub or relax by the fire in our peaceful oasis, located in the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. Collect farm-fresh eggs for breakfast, feed the ducks, and hold the chickens. Great hiking and adventuring nearby @ Lake Lure, Chimney Rock, Asheville & the Blue Ridge Parkway! You'll find new cedar flooring, a real king-size grounding bed and a great book collection. - This is the second stay we have completed on our peaceful 6 acre oasis. Sovereign Fireside Glampground currently has 7 unique stays available for guests. The Sarabi wall tent is 225 sqft inside, plus a large covered patio. Inside the tent you will find a king-sized bed, hand-built timber bed-frame and beautiful cedar flooring. The Sarabi tent is one of our two "upgrade" tents, which includes an electric outlet so you can conveniently charge anything you bring. There are two camp chairs and several area rugs but we wanted to keep these quite spacious so you can still have plenty of room to move around and make yourself at home. On your private patio you will find a table and just off the boardwalk is your own private fire-pit and hand-crafted picnic table. Please note that this is not a completely secluded site - while you will still be able to enjoy plenty of your own private space, there are other glamping sites within view and a neighbor’s property behind the trees behind your tent (only able to be seen in the winter). (see photos) For your cooking needs we have everything you'll need in the outdoor common area kitchen, including a premium gas grill, refrigerator & freezer, kitchen sink, small cutting board, plastic utensils, plates, bowls, cups, large frying pan, cooking implements, standard coffee maker and coffee supplies, oil, salt & pepper, and aluminum foil. There is also power in the commons area to charge anything you bring. A small portable propane heater is included in your tent for cold nights. Propane available for $5/canister, self-serve at the communal kitchen - cash jar or app pay w/ QR code. In colder weather, please be sure to bring extra blankets, layers, etc. so you are as cozy as possible! The bathhouse is about 100 feet from the tent and is outfitted with flush toilets, sinks and a hot shower. The bathhouse has two stalls and is not temperature controlled. Our communal spa area awaits you at anytime. It includes a cedar barrel wood-fired hot tub and cold plunge tub. Since the hot-tub is wood-fired, it heats the old fashioned way in about 2-3 hours. There are detailed instructions on how to light a fire and get the hot tub to temperature. All the wood and materials are provided. The cedar & smoke smell is SO worth the wait! Be aware that although the water is regularly cleaned and maintained, it may appear slightly cloudy and have a few leaves that need to be skimmed out - all normal for an outdoor cedar wood-fired tub. Please note that since the outdoor spa area is a shared common area, bathing suits are required. :) Enjoy visiting with our chickens and ducks, who often free-range around the property. While you have plenty of space to yourselves, be aware that this property has MULTIPLE glamping sites. Expect the privacy of a normal campground, where you have your own space but other sites and our "caretaker residence" are within view. We live in the house at the front of the property, the glamping sites are in the 6 acres behind the house. You're more than welcome to bring your bikes, lawn games and other things you'd like to do. Outside of our property the towns and surrounding areas provide many activities for you to do. Hidden gem small-town charm in Forest City & Rutherfordton, as well as everything you could possibly need only 8 mins away (Starbucks, Walmart, Aldi, the works)! For some local fun, sip a latte at Small Town Coffee Roasters, treat yourself at Pie Safe Bakery, bike the Thermal Belt Trail, hike the Purple Martin Greenway, play pinball at Carolina Arcade, or enjoy a steak at Copper Penny Grill. Farther out, you can zip-line through the forest at Lake Lure, float/kayak the Rocky Broad river, rock-climb or hike to Chimney Rock, or tour many award-winning vineyards and wineries (some just minutes away). My husband and I (and our 5 children) live on site. This is typically a lively, family friendly space, so you may see and hear other guests and children playing. :) Our goal with this land is to create a place that embodies the things that we've found to truly make us happy and allow a better lives for ourselves. Like getting back to nature, living off the land, meditation, and inner healing. Eating whole real foods. Exercising and moving our bodies. Nourishing ourselves. And having a space to allow for community and connection. Our vision started a few years ago when my husband Aaron and I both shared an image of a new world we wanted to create - one filled with self-sufficient, sustainable communities where people live more simply and love each other. In 2014 we left our "normal" lives, hand-built a 100% off-grid tiny home together and lived in it for 5 years. We began to eat real food and use real resources - the land, animals, rain water, compost, solar. But as we spent more time diving into ourselves, God, business, coaches, and many other holistic practices, we realized it was time for a big change. We now want to be able to offer experiences sharing everything we've learned about all these things and have people come try new ways of life. When you stay with us the cool part is, you can know money is being put right back into improving this beautiful oasis and providing an outreach to the community. A large portion of what we make is going right back into this land. This isn't some fancy resort owned by a huge hotel chain. Although we do take serious pride in our work and go above and beyond when building. We've been told that staying here has been a very peaceful, rejuvenating, and relaxing experience. Inside your tent you'll find battery-powered string lights & lantern, one small battery-powered fan, and a small library of books. Firewood available for $5 a bundle, self-serve near the guest cottage. Cash jar or app pay w/ QR code. No smoking or vaping inside the tent, as there will be an extra $50 cleaning fee. You are welcome to bring your furry friend as long as they are registered in the booking, stay on a leash, and are well-behaved around other people and animals. If you have any questions about coming to stay with us please don't hesitate to reach out and ask! We're a Christian-owned, family-run business, and we're excited to host you! - Please park near the "guest parking" sign, in front of the house in the grass by the woods on the right. It's an easy walk to your tent. Walk to the right at the basketball hoop, past the bath house and hot tub. Follow the path lined with patio lights, and you will easily spot the Sarabi Tent in a secluded clearing. Access the communal spa any time (give yourself 2-3 hours to build the fire and wait for it to heat up, if it’s not already hot)! - Don't be deceived when you pull in - it looks like a normal house with a short driveway. All the magic is happening in the back. ;) Interaction with Guests We may or may not be available in person, but I am easily in touch by Airbnb message. - Please park in the parking area in front of the house, then feel free to walk to your tent and get settled in.

Safari tents in United States guide

Overview

With coastlines, alpine mountains, and verdant hillsides, America’s diverse terrain has something for everyone no matter what kind of camping you’re into—so it’s no surprise that more than 40 million people camp in America each year. The US has plenty of national parks (63 to be exact!) and a variety of landscapes and parks to choose from.

Where to go

Northeastern United States

Henry David Thoreau was famously smitten with his natural surroundings in Massachusetts—but the rest of the Northeast is pretty impressive, too. Consider Maine, which has an astonishing 3,500 miles of craggy coastline (That’s more than California has!). The extremely popular Acadia National Park has views for days thanks to gorgeous, pink granite cliffs, rocky beaches, and in the fall, spectacular foliage along the historic gravel carriage roads. Watch the day break from the summit of Cadillac Mountain—one of the first places in the United States to see the sunrise—or take a bracing dip in the waters of Sand Beach.

The Midwest

The Midwest is best known for its grassy, open spaces, but you can also camp around some incredible geographical attractions, particularly in South Dakota, where the legendary Badlands National Park houses rock formations and fossil beds, and Wind Cave National Park features one of the longest and densest caves in the world, with unique honeycomb-like boxwork formations. Above ground you’ll find the last remaining mixed grass prairie in the country—with elk, bison, and pronghorn sheep.

With more than 10,000 lakes, Minnesota is teeming with shoreline campsites, but Voyageurs National Park is by far the most impressive—to camp here, you actually have to arrive by boat. 

The Southern United States

Sure, the American South is known for its charming cities, but its outdoor escapes are equally superb. Chesapeake Bay explorations and bluff-side campsites around historic Williamsburg are major draws in Virginia, but the state’s true claim to fame is Shenandoah National Park, offering more than 500 miles of hiking trails (including 101 miles of the Appalachian Trail), as well as Skyline Drive with over 70 stunning overlooks of waterfalls, wilderness, and forests. Rambling streams, mist-covered mountains, and some of the most diverse plant and animal life in the country abound at Great Smoky Mountains National Park, which straddles the borders of Tennessee and North Carolina

Head further south for some true backcountry adventures—tents and hammocks only—in South Carolina’s incredible Congaree National Park, which preserves the largest tract of old-growth bottomland hardwood forest left in the US. If it's an underwater adventure you’re after, boat down to Biscayne National Park in the northern Florida Keys and get your fill of coral reefs, dive sites, mangrove forests, and wildlife watching.

The Southwest

The Grand Canyon is, without a doubt, the premier natural attraction in the Southwest, but several other natural phenomena make the region worthy of a visit. Big Bend National Park in Texas has very minimal light pollution, making it one of the best places in the country for stargazing, while New Mexico is home to White Sands National Park and its rolling dunes of rare, white gypsum sand that you can hike, tour on horseback, and even sled down. Travel further south through the state to Carlsbad Caverns National Park, a must-see labyrinth of more than 100 caves and stalactites. Pitch a tent in the backcountry (no lodging in the park) or set up your RV in the surrounding BLM land.

America's West Coast

West coast, best coast? Boasting wild landscapes and natural wonders at (almost) every turn, some argue the American West is a true camper’s paradise. America’s first national park, Yellowstone covers parts of Montana, Wyoming, and Idaho, and features more than 300 hypothermal geysers, including Old Faithful. For majestic scenery, try California, where you can find massive sequoia trees, waterfalls, and granite rock formations in Yosemite National Park, or panoramic views of stark desert at Joshua Tree National Park, named for the iconic, twisted, trees for which the park gets its name. One of the most ecologically diverse parks in the Pacific Northwest, Washington state’s Olympic National Park features three distinct ecosystems: glacier-capped mountains, rainforests, and the Pacific Coast. Stay at a campsite near the ocean and you might even catch a glimpse of humpback, sperm, or blue whales. 

Even farther west, visitors flock to Haleakalā National Park on the Hawaiian island of Maui to see spectacular sunrises and sunsets from the summit of the park’s namesake dormant volcano. Equally as magical are the glaciers in Alaska’s Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve, where you can spend your days exploring misty fjords and your nights sleeping under the stars with puffins and whales nearby.
