Gorgeous Stays

Hiking and paddling in the Nantahala Gorge draw many visitors to this part of western North Carolina, and Gorgeous Stays gives them an unconventional place to sleep. The drive-in campground outside camping near Almond mixes accommodation types on a single property: a converted bus, glamping tents, standard tent pads, and small cabins. Owners are on-site and hands-on. Heated blankets are provided in the tents for cold nights, and guests share a gas fire area. Reservations are available. Nantahala Ridge Campground sits just down the road for those who want a more traditional setup.

Cute place. Interesting Spots.

Cute place. Interesting stays. Glamping tent, a bus, a tent pad, a few tiny cabins and more. Owners are nice and very accommodating. Shared gas fire area. It was a very cold night and they had our tent with heated blankets. It was definitely a Unique glamping area.
