Horse farm with lots of space for you and your family!
Used to be a dairy farm from 1860 to 1970.
You will have about 2 acres to yourself, beautiful sunset. You will be surrounded by horses. Horse back riding on the property can be arranged by appointment if we are available. There are several trails in the area.
5-10 min to restaurants and stores. 5-10 min to swimming and hiking. 20 min to Kings Mountains. 30 min to South Mountains. 20 min to Tryon Equestian Center.
Site 1,2 and 4: full hookup 50A (30A adapter is available), water and sewer.
Site 3: 30A and water, but no sewer, you will have to use your tank.
Site 1 and 2 are about 100ft apart, site 3 is about 300ft from site 1 and 2, so there is plenty of privacy.
Nestled in a tranquil farm setting, this campsite offers a peaceful retreat with beautiful views of grazing horses, making it a hit among guests seeking relaxation. Richard, the host, is consistently praised for his friendly and accommodating nature, often stepping in to assist campers in need. While the majority of feedback highlights the serene atmosphere and spacious sites, some guests mentioned issues with site leveling and trash management. Despite a few mixed experiences, most campers appreciate the convenience of full hookups and the proximity to Shelby for any essentials.
I saw some RV’s by the wooded area, but the spot I was assigned was in the immediate backyard behind the house. It was not private or scenic, and felt exposed with another house or barn beside this house. People milling about. I arrived at dusk and was confused with directions to site so sat in the backyard for 15-20 min until finally someone came out.
The whole experience was very nice! Richard was a very helpful kind host and answered any questions I had. The land was beautiful and there was plenty of space to spread out. The other guests staying there were all friendly as well which was nice. Definitely recommend this site and, if I am camping in this area again, I will most likely come back to this site.
Richard was extremely friendly and a fantastic host. The four kids on our trip absolutely loved the horses and we were able to walk up and pet two of the more friendly curious ones. The property is very old (house built in 1860) and has great farm character while be extremely close to town (8 minutes to food lion). This site has plenty of room to camp and we easily set up two 6 person tents. Nice area with shade for tables, chairs, and fire. Definitely recommend if you need a spot close to Kings Mountain or Crowders. That being said, it is close to a road and the town of Shelby so youre not secluded or noise free by any means. Perfect place to introduce camping to close friends of ours and it is a great spot if you got some littles that are into horses! 10/10 would go back!
