A rocky creek winds through the woods at the base of several hikable peaks hidden just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway. Wildlife enthusiasts are encouraged to explore, on foot or mountain-bike, anywhere within our 170 acres (or the adjoining 250 acres owned by the US Forestry Service off our Western border) and are likely to catch glimpses of turkey, beaver, deer, fox, eastern box turtle and the many species of songbird and raptor. The location is convenient to tons of local attractions for sightseeing and outdoor activities as well as shopping, dining, even wine tasting. We would be happy to supply a comprehensive list of the various local attractions upon request but the following are a few of our favorite things to do within a short drive: visit Linville Falls, Caverns, Gorge and/or Winery; drive the Blue Ridge parkway; tube/kayak down the Catawba river; hike beautiful Crabtree Falls; cross Grandfather Mountains mile high bridge and explore the nearby towns of Spruce Pines or Little Switzerland. The scenic drives to Asheville, Blowing Rock or Banner Elk make them each wonderful day-trip destinations.

Love tanglewood creekside campsites! I have stayed there a couple times and absolutely love it. It's a great place to relax and unwind, and absolutely beautiful! The owners are so kind and helpful. 10/10 recommend.

Loved It
Blair’s piece of land is a piece of heaven. Everything is so clean and clearly cared for. I stayed in a safari tent solo and felt safe. I’ve been camping in many places all over the country and this is in my top favorites. I will say if you are looking for true seclusion, you’d be able to see other campers (if they’re there) and once in a while you can hear a car go by. But it’s quiet and peaceful and for me, someone who loves being “off grid”, it was wonderful. If I’m ever back in the area I will absolutely 100% return! Thank you Blair for everything.

Another great visit!
Falling asleep to the sound of the creek was so relaxing. The light pollution is very minimal so you can see so many stars and the planets! The creekside safari tent is always perfect and the daffodils are so pretty! Can’t wait to get back!

Fantastic site!!!!
This site was fantastic. We had a great 2 night stay with 2 adults and 2 of our adult children - and 3 dogs. Site was well maintained, spacious and private. Even when powerful storms moved through the area over night with very high winds - the safari tent was solid and dry. Mattresses and pillows were super comfortable. We have a son at App and one going to UNC Asheville next year. It’s a great inbetween spot for us. Our dogs loved the open area to run free.

The Little Cabin
With kids ·
We loved our stay at the Little Cabin! My boys loved playing in the creek and exploring the property. They have done so much work after Helene and it’s looking great! Very close to gem mining and we enjoyed hiking to Tom’s Creek Falls. Blair was very helpful and accommodating. My husband had to work at the Starlink worked perfectly from the cabin. Looking forward to coming back for tent camping! Thank you!

Perfect Mountain Getaway!
With kids ·
This property and safari tent was absolutely perfect for our family and dogs! For starters the property is so perfect. Plenty of trails so we never had to leave to find adventure. It has a lovely stream that runs through it that the kids had a blast playing in (even in February). The tent provided the essentials for us to glamp and the owner was always just a message away. Lastly, it is situated nicely between local attractions so if you want to adventure around it doesn’t take up your whole day. 10/10 recommend!
