I was doing a road trip from North Carolina to Texas and did not want to stay at a hotel and decided to camp instead. This was my first solo camping experience and I let the owners know. They were very sweet and accommodating. Mandy came and greeted me upon my arrival and went over some safety features to ensure my comfort. I was so comfortable that I stayed here on my way back as well. Unfortunately, I was unable to take advantage of the hiking and fully take in all the campsite had to offer as I was on a timeline. However, I did find much peace at and tranquility at the campsite itself. I would love to stay here again when I have more time to explore.
There are great trees available for hammocking at several of the sites (please be respectful and use proper straps as to not damage these pristine woods). The nearby babbling creek was lovely to go to sleep and wake up to. The stars were amazing! I would recommend bringing a telescope if you have one. The outhouse was stocked with toilet paper, a trashcan, and enough space to change clothes in each stall. And better yet, there was no smell! I have always had an aversion to using outhouses, but this does not compare with any I have been in. The road in is a well maintained gravel road that I think any vehicle could easily navigate. As an added bonus, the fire ring was already set up with kindling to get your fire going without having to go hunting for your wood. As it had rained the day I arrived, the owners asked if I needed any dry wood for the night. You can tell the owners hearts are put into this special place. I would highly recommend Heartstone Campground for anyone wanting to get away.
