Located in Uwharrie National Forest, the New Forest features open meadows among stands of pine and mixed hardwoods. Campsites are far apart, each unique and offer the opportunity to commune with nature, and experience camping like it should be, emersed in nature with the opportunity to disconnect from the trappings of our modern, hectic world. This area is one of the richest archeological areas in the entire southeast United States. The location of the first real gold rush, and rich in folklore and bootlegging history, old homesteads and family graveyards are scattered among the hills. Old roadbeds and logging trails abound in the 800 acres of Uwharrrie National Forest directly adjacent to the New Forest Property making for miles of hiking opportunities, wildlife viewing, birdwatching. A 3/4 mile hike to the Taylor Family graveyard is marked with ribbons to guide you to one of the of the many family graveyards. *** A new fun feature for kids is the introduction of our dear friend Debbie Beasley"s art to the trails here in the New Forest. Scattered along the many trails are rocks painted by the one and only Debbie Beasley with cute fluorescent/3-D scenes of nature. Children can keep them as souvenirs from their New Forest camping adventure, or enjoy them while here then re-hide them for other children to find. ❤️ Come see for yourself. If you are looking for a modern, crowded campground this isn't it. However if you want a beautiful, rustic experience in nature, with a few basic amenities and with access to Uwharrie National Forest come see what others have enjoyed so much.

I just spent a weekend tent camping at Charles and Bonnie’s. If you are looking for peace and quiet on a huge private site then their beautiful farm is the place to go. It is primitive camping but they are so gracious they supply each site a five gallon jug of water and a stack of firewood!! I camped with my little dog (I’m a Senior Mom) while my daughter backpacked in Uwharrie. I felt totally safe and Bonnie checked on the campers each day. I’ll definitely go back!!!!

Chuck’s land was the perfect place to relax and spend the evening star gazing by the Uwharrie National Forrest! Everything about this place was perfect and Chuck was the kindest host. Would recommend to anyone!
