From the shores of Cape Hatteras to the ancient mountains of Great Smoky Mountain National Park, North Carolina is a state that is as beautiful as it is diverse in natural wonders. Whether you fancy a day of surfing in the waves of the Atlantic Ocean or a climb up Mount Mitchell, the tallest mountain east of the Mississippi, there’s an outdoor adventure waiting for you. So grab your bathing suit or your hiking poles (or both!) and find the best camping in North Carolina. 


The pristine beauty of North Carolina’s Outer Banks have always drawn vacationers looking for a respite from the hustle and bustle of their daily lives. Fortunately for those that like sleeping under the stars, camping in North Carolina at one of the state’s many beaches is a great way to experience the sun and sand without the expense of a vacation rental. With over 300 miles of coastline, there are dozens of state and private campgrounds to choose from. 


If pitching your tent in coastal sand dunes isn’t your cup of tea then pack your bag and head to the mountains of Western North Carolina—a region known throughout the southeast for its abundant opportunities to recreate outdoors. Whether you’re rafting down the Nantahala River that winds through the beautiful and remote Nantahala National Forest or hiking on the Mountains-to-Sea Trail, a 1,175 mile footpath that spans the width of North Carolina, you won’t run out of reasons to be outside. 


North Carolina has 40 mountains that rise above 6,000 feet (aforementioned Mount Mitchell is the tallest, clocking in at 6,684 feet) and 100 that stand more than 5,000 feet. Camping in the shadows of these peaks is just one thing that makes camping in North Carolina so special. And with 2.1 million acres of public land in the state, finding a campground is as easy as pulling out a map. 


Whether it’s saltwater waves, pristine peaks or rushing rivers that excite you, let The Dyrt help you discover the best camping in North Carolina.

Bryson City

The Best Camping Near Bryson City, North Carolina

Three Little Bears Retreat situated on 40+ acres bordering the Great Smoky Mountain National park in Bryson City, NC. The area of Bryson City has the best to offer for those wanting to visit the Smokies such as hiking, fly fishing, mountain biking, white water rafting, horse back riding, tubing, and more! The beautiful thing about Bryson is that everything seems to be a little better, nicer and less crowded than the Tennessee side of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park, while our cabins and property are fabulous, the best part to us is that the house sits just outside the entrance to the "Road to Nowhere" entrance to the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and is an easy 5 minute drive into downtown, Deep Creek, the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad and many other fun activities. Vacations should be relaxing and fun and not spent commuting everywhere, and we feel our location for exploring the Smoky Mountains is perfect.

On the Retreat, we have three large cabins, a Glamping area with an Airstream, glamping tents and clubhouse, many mountain streams, the roaring Lands Creek at the bottom, long range views at the top, and several hundred feet directly bordering the National Park!

Our original Three Little Bears cabin is a large 4 bedroom cabin with a large finished basement used as a bunk room. There is a master suite on the 3rd floor with spa type bathroom and reading loft. The main floor has 2 bedrooms with King beds, a large laundry room, one full bath, a large kitchen and open concept dining and living room as well as access to the wrap around outdoor balconies. The basement is heated and cooled and features 3 bunk bed sets, a movie area with a 65" tv, a workspace, a full bath and the adjoining garage has been turned into a game room with a pool table, foosball table, arcade console, and dart board. The garage area leads outside to the bottom floor deck that has swings, a sitting area to enjoy the view and enjoy the sounds of the roaring creek below.

Farm Bear Lodge is a large 4 bedroom +bunk room /4 bath cabin with two large finished living areas and a garage. Lands Creek can also be heard loudly from this cabin. The kitchen, main living area, balcony, and another king bedroom and full bath are located on the main floor, while the other two king bedrooms and the living/game room/deck with hot tub and fire pit are located on the lower floor. Connected to one of the king bedrooms is what we call the bunk room with 5 single beds and a full bath (no actual bunks)

Sky Bear Lodge is a classic cabin that has a historical feel and epic views from near the top of the Retreat. It has 5 bedrooms with 2 kings and a full bath up top, the master suite and a bedroom with twin beds on the main floor with the kitchen and main living area, and another king bedroom and bunk room with 5 single beds (no bunk beds) is on the bottom floor along with the game room, hot tub, and fire pit.

Three Little Bears Glamping consists of a club house with a full kitchen, game area, and hot tub along with a renovated Airstream called Air Bear, and plans for Glamping Luxury Tents along the ridge. Lands Creek can also still be heard from this location. Air Bear is a converted Airstream Ambassador Camper that can sleep 4 and has a full bath and kitchenette.



3 Little Bears Retreat

Surrounded by nature, enjoy the seclusion of this mountainside glamping experience along with the convenience of being close to town, the national park, AND having private access to a unique cabin with a full kitchen, bathroom and living area. Our renovated space themed Airstream comfortably sleeps 4 and we have outdoor ping pong, cornhole, fire pit, and a hot tub. We're about 5-8 minutes from downtown Bryson City and just around the corner from an entrance to the Smoky Mtn Ntl Park.



Airbear: Airstream Glamping with Hot Tub and Cabin

Sky Bear sits at the top of our property with epic and serene views across multiple ridges to soak up the mountain air. The lodge has a rustic, historical feel with hand hewn cedar throughout, a hand laid stone fireplace and many spaces to spread out to reflect or spend time together with the family. Our driveway is paved with easy access for motorcycles/cars and has a covered parking area. This lodge has 5 bedrooms with 11 beds & 3 bathrooms.

The middle floor is the entry and main floor with kitchen, dining, living area, master bedroom, and an additional guest bedroom. Upstairs are two bedrooms with king beds and a bath and loft. Downstairs is a family bedroom area with one room having a king bed and another room having 5 single beds. There is also a full bath and a large game room on this level along with access to the back porch with the hot tub. Sky Bear Lodge has satellite wifi internet (great for most things but not streaming), satellite Dish Network tv, and DVD players for media in addition to our pool table, shuffle board table, corn hole, connect 5, and other games and entertainment options that we provide on the property.

Our property that we call Three Little Bears Retreat is 40+ preserved acres that backs up to the National Park, and we're an easy 8 minute ride into town. Enjoy the game room, porches, swings, and relax & unwind



Sky Bear Lodge

The whole, large group will enjoy easy/quick access to the Smoky Mtn Ntl Park and downtown Bryson from Farm Bear Lodge. Our cabin is on 40+ acres that backs up to the Smoky Mtn Ntl Park near the "Road to Nowhere Entrance" of the park. There is a large creek below that can be heard from the decks/firepit areas of the lodge. There is a trail down to a mountain stream and the creek if you wish to spend some time there. Our driveway is an easy paved access all year for cars and motorcycles.
