Wonderful area in the mountains of North Carolina. Sloping hills in all directions. Enjoy the world famous Mile High Swinging Bridge and is gorgeous panoramic views. Elk River Falls, winery, fishing, kayaking, nature. Grandfather Mountain Nature Park in walking distance across the Mile High Swinging Bridge. An outdoor adventure dream.
We just stayed at the cabin and had a wonderful time. Maxine adds a very personal touch, which is refreshing. I was worried because she didn't take me cc to hold the cabin but it worked out just fine and I didn't have to give out my cc number to yet another person.
The cabin is darling but extremely tiny. We had 2 children with us and it was a bit of a challenge. The love seat in the living area folds out to a twin bed but it takes up the entire room. There is literally NO floor space anywhere to put a pallet down for our other child. We managed, though.
The back cookout area is spacious but a bit overgrown around the built in seats. Luckily, we brought our own chairs.
If you're planning on staying bring your own condiments because there is only salt and pepper there. You may also want to bring dish soap and a sponge.
We visited in July and didn't even need the AC because the cabin is nicely shaded and airflow through it is sufficient. The location is convenient to Banner Elk and not far from Boone either.
In all we were very pleased with our stay and highly recommend this cabin.
Maxine! You are a wonderful host, and my wife and I had the best time staying at your campground. Sadly, we left a day early to avoid bad weather, but we will be back soon for the fall foliage. Everything good people had to say about this campground is true and more. It was the easiest decision of our trip.
Cutest little campground. This is a hidden gem. Maxine, the owner, is the sweetest! We will definitely be back!
Loved The Little Campground! Stayed the weekend for the 2023 Woolly Worm Festival. Was only 10 mins away, very quiet, friendly people and awesome camp sites. Will definitely return.
I stoped by last week since it is shown as open. before and upon arrival I tried to contact the phone number provided and posted on signes at the campground but nobody answered. I looked for a place to pay and couldn't find any. So we decided with my wife to stay (It was close to midninght and it was freezing) and pay in the morning. As we were about to call it a day, suddenly a person knocked on our door and started to yell "Go away before I call the law". He identified himelf as the owner. I offered him to pay but he continued yelling. I found the treatment rude and unamerican considering the time (Close to midnight) and the whether conditions. There was no need to kick us out when we intended to pay.
