Bear Creek Tee-Pee Retreat is a small slice of paradise in Mocksville NC. We are the last property at the end of a dirt road surrounded by woods on all sides. We built this space as our little stay-cation spot and knew we had to share it with fellow lovers of all things outdoors.
We have 3 primitive sites and 1 authentic teepee. There is a bath house with a heated shower, and a port-a-john that is cleaned regularly. There are 2 picnic tables and a charcoal grill. We have a 24x16 enclosed stage that can be used for bands, educational classes, karaoke, yoga... ect. There is also an outdoor movie theater that we will occasionally play movies on for guests, but it is also available to rent for an evening.
There are a few restaurants close by. We are about a 5-minute drive to Lake Myers RV resort that has 2 Olympic size swimming pools. There are a lot of wineries and breweries within a 30 min drive from our property. We are also about 15 minutes from river access to the Yadkin River for anyone looking to Kayak.

With 3/4 mile frontage on the Dan River and situated on 50 private acres, Squirrel Creek Farm is the perfect spot for outdoor enthusiasts and trout anglers!
The Dan River is stocked 8 times a year with Brook, Rainbow and Brown Trout from the hydro-dam 5 miles up above us through Kibler Valley. Want to start fishing at the dam and walk down river to your camp spot? We can drop you off up to 5 miles away. Want to fish upstream? We can drop you off at a local place called "Sawmill" and you can walk upstream to your campsite.
Enjoying the cold flowing river on a hot summer day is definitely encouraged.
Relax under the starlit night with the crackle of the campfire and the dreamy murmur of the Dan River.
Kibler Valley is well known for its peace, tranquility and wildlife. Deer, fox, beaver, snakes and bear roam these woods so be careful to put your food and trash away from your tents to discourage late night visitors.
We only allow 5 tent campsites at a time to keep your experience at our farm unique and private.
Campsites are walk-in only. We do have a Polaris to help you move your gear from your vehicle to your site.
Joining together with local farmers, we have a simple menu (listed below) so that you can pre-order your meals for your visit and cut out time-wasting trips to the store. Grilling fresh caught trout with local veggies and breads is simple when you order supplies with your reservation. Rib-eyes more your style? We partnered with 2 local cattlemen to bring you the best home grown beef around. Let us know your cut. And if you are a pork lover, local ground sausage and smoked bacon will get your morning rolling. Might be able to get some ribs, if needed too. Local veggies, fruits and breads are seasonal, but there is something in every season. The farmers in Patrick County, Virginia will make sure you are fed.
Please include your grocery list in the "message host" section. We will communicate and have everything ready when you arrive.

On BRP near Floyd, VA. A lot of amenities in town and hiking trails nearby. Clean and quiet: no generators allowed in tent camping area and quiet hours after 10pm. Tent sites $20 per night at time of my stay.

We camped in our tent at Beechnut for two nights. The owners are very friendly and helpful. The tent camping area is across a road from a stream, in a forest of tall trees, a very picturesque location. Each tent site had water, a picnic table, and a 30-amp electric outlet. It rained heavily both nights we stayed there, but we stayed dry. Unfortunately the rain had been going on for several days before we arrived, and wherever vehicles were parked on the ground, they left muddy ruts. The owner helped some guests who arrived at night at a tent site in small travel trailers, when they were stuck. He really is very helpful and kind. Bathhouses are clean and well-kept.
Traveler
This park is close to our home, very affordable and was an excellent place to take my wife for her first tent camping experience. The tent sites were nice. I would scout ahead if possible because some are nicer than others. We stayed in site #7. The tent pad was level but ground around the area was mostly sloped. Was very close to the bath house. Bath house was ok. Wife said women's side was nice and clean. The men's side was a little outdated and could have had a few less spiders but wasn't terrible. There was a newer bath house a little further away from our site that seemed a little nicer. Campground was full but because there a limited sites it wasn't too crowded. Overall was a great weekend getaway with my family and friends. We will most likely go back at some point.

On my way to Virginia from western North Carolina, I decided to stop here. It makes the eight hour trip less tiresome if you can break it up. It is convenient since it is along the interstate. However, staying in one of the cabins at this KOA in Greensboro requires a minimum two-night stay, and they run about$100 a night. The person in the office was really nice and informative, but I think KOA is trying to discourage tent campers. She told me that since it had been raining, the ground was saturated and tent campers don’t like all the noise from the road; and she is 100% correct. Nevertheless, a tent site was my best option. The tent sites are sloped and very small. There is very little privacy since the sites are just about on top of each other. Don’t get me wrong; there are good things about this KOA… for RV campers and RV campers with children. The RV sites are spacious and mostly level with electric, water, and sewer hookups. The cabins are really nice(this being based on staying in a KOA cabin in the past and the exterior looks, which have been updated since I last stayed in one). The children will love the caboose/play area, and there is a large pool, which was actually open. There is also a fenced dog walk and another playground for children. The main bath house is located at the end of the office, and there is another bath house which was closed due to repair(?). Perhaps I’m being a little too harsh since it had poured rain for two days, but being on a small, unlevel, tent site with saturated ground is not my favorite way to camp. There were only brief minutes to take any photos since it was constantly raining. With all this said, if you want an alternative to staying at a motel/hotel/inn in Greensboro to experience the numerous things the city has to offer, this is a good choice for RV campers or for those who want to stay in a cabin.

Nice and clean area as far as tent camping, beautiful area all and all. Would return for sure.

We love coming to Lake Reidsville. We have tent camped many times there and now have been with a camper. It was peaceful and the view is always amazing.

Plenty of places to tent camp or RV camp! Places to fish things for kids to play on and of course places to shower after! One of my family’s favorite places to camp!
Scout
This was a close (1 hour drive) from Winston Salem and was the perfect first tent camping experience! Tons of beautiful trails, some with waterfalls, and a great beach! Camp site was mexcellent! Just enough privacy and clean bathrooms, plenty of water spickets! We will be back!
TravelerHad a really good weekend!! Campground was all I needed for the two nights I stayed. Slightly wished the bathhouses had been open. Camp site very clean, big enough for tent camping. Sites are slightly close, wasn't a problem considering it was January. Will be returning during summer months.
Scout
Byrd’s Branch is a newer campground with very clean facilities. Nice tent sites along a creek surrounded by mature trees. The nearby waterfalls are awesome and just a short hike from the campsite. Glad I stayed here.
Traveler
I stayed at tent site #10 for 3 nights. This site along with sites 8 and 9 have electric so I was able to run an extension cord into my tent. This site has gorgeous views of the lake and seems to share a grill with #11. There are trees perfect for a hammock. There is no fire ring but I brought my own raised fire pit. I was told I’d probably need to drive to the bathrooms but there is a path through the woods into section A. There is no potable water on tent sites and I had to walk to a vacant rv site to get water for washing dishes. The wifi is hit or miss at this site but it’s there. My cell coverage was good so I mostly isdd my hot spot.
I want to emphasize that you so need to check in by 7:30 but after that you get a gate code to use coming in late or leaving early.
Guide
It was as little off the beaten path but the roads were good. All of the sites were wooded, the outside loop sites had more privacy since your door opened to the lake/woods. You have water and electric in the RV sites and I think there are more tent sites, dry sites, which can also be used for RV's than there are water and electric. Most of the tent sites are right along the lake. The RV sites tended to be higher and a little farther from the water but in sight. It seemed that most sites required a little help to get level. Bath house was fairly close and very clean. They have a couple of nice beach areas for playing abound in the water with picnic tables and fire pits nearby. Did want to mention that they provided 30 amp service vs the 20 amp shown here.
ScoutWe tent camped on Aug 28. This was our first time setting up on a platform and it was very easy. Our site had a great view of the beautiful lake. There was a pool our kids could swim in until 7:00pm. They let us borrow a metal fire pit so we could make s’mores. The restrooms and showers were very clean.
Travelerthe campsites area nice. well maintained. proximity to the road is close. constantly hearing cars go by. the tent campsites away from the RV site is nice at night. Listen to the frogs.
TravelerGreat spot for tent camping! Loved the hillside spots bc of all the trees and the multiple levels that the spots are on. They are all built out and flat. Bathrooms are clean and campground was quiet. I had issues finding out if pets were allowed... they are! My dog and I had an awesome time and we will be back for sure.

This campground is located just NW of Winston Salem. The campground is mostly wooded and shady with many rocks. Water and trash are readily available. The bath house is extraordinarily clean, with showers, changing area and clean toilets and sinks. Fire pit and picnic tables are at every site - yet many sites are close together and very rocky for tent camping.
We enjoy hiking to the top from the campground on well marked trails. The views are great and boulders are fun for the kids to play on!
ScoutPros: • Most of the B sites are in a nice wooded setting. • There’s plenty of trails to walk during the day. • Very quiet even though the sites are pretty close together. • There’s a Food Lion and Gas Station 10 minutes away if you forget anything. • Clean bathhouses with hot water.
Cons: • Our site (B20) was reaaally uneven but we made it work for 2 tents! • If you tent camp in the B lot, the bathhouse is a bit of a walk. • You have to bring your own firewood or buy it ($5 a bundle) - gathering firewood from the woods is not allowed. • Water is shared between sites.
Traveler
As for the overall campground, 10/10! Bathrooms are clean and what you’d expect a campground bathroom to be. Waterfront beach available, hiking trails, two piers and a theater spot with a gorgeous view. We did show up right after a huge storm, and because the electric was out the bathrooms were inaccessible. They quickly got port-a-potties until the issue was resolved. I will say if you are a tent camper like us, site 35 is the best site to avoid noisy neighbors, and is right by the bathrooms. The c loop is gorgeous but the sites are very close together for tent campers and you can very much hear everyone else. Site 1 looks amazing for tent camping also, although the bottom loop books up far in advance.
LegendHanging Rock campground is a popular spot for locals and visitors. It has both hook-ups and tent sites, with bath houses that provide showers, toilets and sinks. This campground is within walking distance to the lake - with a little beach where the kids can play and swim! There is a charge to swim in the lake, as well as rowboat rentals available! We enjoy hiking several trails in the area and there are many creeks for kids to explore! Several waterfalls are accessible in this park and enjoyed by all! Trails show signs of heavy traffic as pieces of trash are often found while hiking. The campground is kept very clean and we enjoy it!
ScoutWe tent camped here with 2 kids. The trails were fairly nice and we enjoyed the view at the top. The lake was great for the kids. The lake itself wasn't huge, but the water was pretty clear at the large beach area. There were salamanders and fish for the kids to chase. There is a large stone house built by the CCC with facilities and snacks, and there were lots of staff available. We rented a canoe to paddle around for a bit, and the process was simple and straightforward. The campground had ample space and the sites didn't feel too close together. The one and only reason I am not giving 5 stars is the bathhouse. The showers were small and dark, and I did have to remove some spiders before the girls would shower. Otherwise, we had a great time.

Great family friendly, pet loving campground. Most sites are spacious, all rv sites have full hookups. There are a few tent sites close to office. We have been coming to this campground for 6 years now. Staff are very friendly and helpful. I like a campground that allows you to book a specific site, we're booked for 3 separate trips for 2022. So much to do in surrounding area, especially if you are a fan of Andy Griffith. The town of Mt. Airy has a variety of fast food places as well as many varied restaurants and BBQ's as well. A few of the bigger stores, walmart, lowes, all right in town. Visiting downtown 'mayberry' is a must if you remember the TV show. Book a ride in the police car. Over the years we have found and used veterinarian in town, as well as a great rv store. Might be small, but that store has helped us many times over the years. The Mayberry campground has so much going on, you really don't have to leave camp. Just sit back and relax. Bennie, his daughters and staff will make sure your stay is great. Camp is open year round. We have been there summer, fall and winter. We love this campground.
GuideWe spent one night at Hanging Rock State Park on our way home to West Virginia from South Carolina. Unfortunately, lack of time and rain kept us from taking advantage of the myriad of trails to explore in the park. After our arrival on Saturday afternoon, we had enough time to hike to the top of the overlook and enjoy the scenic views before returning to our campsite for dinner. Sadly, Mother Nature thought we needed some rain, which continued all evening into the next day.
While the sites in the campground can accommodate small RV's or trailers, they aren't easy to get into. Many of the parking areas in the sites aren't diagonal to the roadway, which makes backing in difficult. It is evident this campsite was designed primarily for tent camping.
The views from the overlook are spectacular but the hike was a bit more strenuous than anticipated. The sign at the visitor center parking lot says it is 1.3 miles but it seems much further. The path is wide and well maintained up to the base of the overlook. Beyond that much of the ground has been washed out around the rock steps, which can be a bit difficult to navigate. Especially for those with shorter legs.
The bathrooms were clean and well kept but we ran out of hot water late in the evening, which was likely due to campers showering after a recent rainstorm.
Overall the park and campground are nice but the sites aren't very accommodating for travel trailers. Even one as small as ours, which is only about 10' long. The views from the overlook were the best part of the experience.
TravelerMy husband and I just returned from a May visit to this campground. It is fairly small, 43 camp sites. No water and electric hookups which we sort of prefer as it seems to be less attractive to mega sized RVs with noisy generators. It was a ratio of about 75%/25% tents to smaller RVs when we were there. Camp site has raised level tent sites not concrete, but hard packed dirt. Also, picnic table and fire pit. The grill on the fire pit was adjustable for height to the coals which was kind of cool. Bath house was a little rustic but plenty of hot water. Firewood is available from the camp host for $6 a bundle. Cash only. If you’re not in good shape get a site above the bath house. Below the bath house involves a good little climb every time you have to go!
Best part of this campground is that it is right on the trail to the summit. The first trail is Grindstone Trail which is a 2 1/2 mile up and back. It’s a moderate trail with equivalent inclines, declines, and level switchbacks. I’m 63 and healthy and it was an appropriate challenge for me. To get to the summit it’s about a half mile of strenuous climb on the Ledge Springs Trail. That part is strenuous in my opinion.
You can also drive up to the summit where you get views of the Yadkin Valley and the knob of Pilot Mountain. It’s crowded up there but accessible for a wide range of people so that’s good. If you don’t prefer crowds go at the beginning or end of the season. Season runs May through October I believe.
LegendWhat a wonderful COE!
It was very quiet during our stay. We did have a few families with some children, all well mannered and having a great time playing. The park staff was wonderful and very friendly! The park is well kept and maintained. There was a company that came by and cleaned the bathrooms daily and did a wonderful job. The restrooms are a bit dark during the day as it looks like the lights are on timers and come on at nite... kinda odd but it works. There are 3 large Restroom/Shower Facilities in the park, 1 in the Upper/Lower Section, by the boat ramp- 1 near the Dump Station and beginning of the Tent Section- and another at the base of the Tent Section and at the Swimming Beach by the Lower Boat Ramp Area. We stayed in site#39 in the Lower section Loop of the RV/Tent camping area. The sites are a bit closer than other COE's but still very nice. Made it a bit tough to get a 40' 5th wheel in but it can be done. The Upper section Loop is suited for larger rigs and further apart but more expensive. All seem to have electric and water but no sewer hookup. There is a Dump Station near by and it is situated on a slight uphill getting to it but relatively flat at the station. It is doable for most but large rigs will need to take some smart maneuvering to getter done! The sites all have a gravel base and pretty level, framed in recycled plastic 8x8 shaped timbers with a picnic table and fire ring. Very well done!! The Tent Section is Awesome! All well spaced apart and along a hilly area of the park. Looks very inviting to come stay, if I were back tenting again! Only drawback is how far the Restrooms are from the sites but under the circumstances of the hilly layout, they had no choice. It is what it is! Only received a few TV channels and Verizon was"ok" but not terrific. Hey, we came for the peaceful setting anyway! The drive in from Hwy 220 on Henry Rd was good, once we turned on Knob Church Rd it was a bit tighter and hillier, so take it slow and easy, it's only 2 miles... take your time and arrive safe. Have a great time! Larry

We reserved a 30amp site monies were paid even though it’s first come first serve on location. We arrive and get our envelope to go to our camp site and it was a 50 amp site. We saw 110 outlets and thought ok no biggie….. there was no power to this campsite at all. We call the ranger no answer (we had been told she was sick) we call the 800 number and get a number to a ranger in florida who says they’ll get the right person and have them come help…. 20 minutes later no person no call so I call again he says oh they gave you the wrong number I can’t help you…. Would have been nice if he had called back to let me know. So call the 800 number again and the lady tells me oh that’s no good, drive around and see if you can find another spot….this place was packed…. So it’s almost 8 at this time and she says oh I have to go it’s almost time for us to close and when I ask her what do I do about power…. She tells me it’s between me and the campground…. If I hadn’t of had a long extension cord that I could reach a tent site with we would have been in trouble the low was 30 for that night the next morning the ranger came by and this sweet lil 77 year old lady tried to help us move we told her we had drug an extension cord across could we just stay at the site at this point cause no one wants to move around like that while camping…. We went down to shower and the bathrooms were disgusting, toilets and the walls covered in feces, putt putt course appeared to be covered in sticks and tons of leaves…… this was just a terrible experience for us it was more like a white trash camp ground in the part we stayed at….. people with all kinds of junk outside of their permanent homes…. This was not anything like camping for us at all
LegendThere are a lot of reasons to love Hanging Rock State Park. That’s why it is probably my favorite state park in North Carolina. However, I am torn between giving it two stars and giving it five stars. In general, I would give the park five stars, but for the camping facilities, I would rate it two stars. There is so much to do without having to leave the state park. First, let’s look at the park itself, and close to the end I will discuss the campground.
To get to the park, you drive through beautiful rolling hills. The park has a modern visitor center with a nature center and friendly rangers. There are lots of trails to explore, but they are not just trails to nowhere. There are five waterfalls to see, a climbing access area, Cook’s Wall, and much more. Moore’s Wall Loop Trail is a 4.3 mile strenuous hike, and it begins by walking by the lake. There is a platform about halfway through the hike in which you can see the skylines of Greensboro and Winston-Salem. My favorite trail is the Hanging Rock Trail, which is listed as moderate. Parts of it are moderate, very short stretches are easy, and much of it is strenuous. The last part of the Hanging Rock Trail is the most difficult, but the view at the end is worth the hike because it is spectacular. From the hanging rock (I should say rocks since there are more than one), you can see for many miles across several counties. The shortest hike to see a waterfall is relatively easy and is only three-tenths of a mile one way. The lake has a swimming beach with mountains in the background, and there are also rowboats and canoes for rent. According to what I understand from their website, canoe rentals and concession stands at the lake are open weekends only in the spring and fall (10am - 5:30pm). I was hoping to take my kayaks next time, but unfortunately, private boats are not allowed. Two large picnic shelters are also close to the lake.
Here is why I would give it two stars. The camping sites are shaded and spacious with picnic tables, lantern poles, and fire rings, but the bathroom facility is outdated (built in the 1960s). Even though it has hot water, it is NOT handicap accessible, and the shower doors are narrow. If you are not a skinny person, you might have trouble squeezing through the shower doors. There are no electrical, water, or sewer hookups; however, there is access to water by way of frostproof hydrants. The campground hosts were very helpful and answered my questions. You can also purchase bundles of firewood since taking your own firewood into the park is frowned upon. If you are like me, however, and camp to experience the outdoors, you will not want to stay at your campsite very long. There are just too many things to explore at this state park. If you are going and want to truly experience the park, plan to camp at least three nights. One day you can explore Upper Cascades falls and the hanging rock. On another day, you can hike the Moore’s Wall trail and cool off in the lake. On another day, see a couple more waterfalls or hike the Reuben Mountain Trail.
There is also a group camping area. I took the Boy Scouts there once, so I decided to visit this time to see if it was still the same. They have added bathrooms and more well-defined tent sites—quite an improvement since the last time.
LegendOak Hollow Campground is located in High Point NC. It is immediately off the highway and just a couple turns through neighborhoods and you arrive at the campground. You turn left off the main road, across from the golf course and pass by both the tennis center and the gazebo with the covered picnic tables. You can hear both the highway and neighborhood traffic from the campground.
When we pulled up, the first thing we noticed was the campground sign, with the electric gate with a key code. We also were immediately greeted by a man on a golf-cart - which made us feel like they take care of who is in and out of their campground.
Pulling in, all registration and fees can be paid in the little brown building on the right. There were many signs on the door giving us all the info we needed, seeing as the attendant was out.
We pulled through loop A and could hear music - we guessed from the lake, but soon realized it was from a house in the nearby neighborhood. Several of the sites in loop A were crooked, but an RV could level acceptably.
Loop B was an RV loop - consisting primarily of a gravel parkinglot and RV's stacked one after the other. The lake was an easy walk from this loop - and also had a gazebo with picnic tables underneath and 2 swings, doggie pick up stations, recycling and trashcans.
Loop C was the tent sites - many with interesting platforms that gave us a good view of the lake. This view came at a price though - the sites were just off the road - meaning 4 or 5 feet from the road. We parked strategically so the kids would always be between our van and our site - but there was no room for exploration on their own.
Continuing on down the road, we came to Loop D which was another RV parking lot. There was a semi-permanent gate separating the neighborhood from this parking lot - but people could easily walk in and out in this area.
There was coin laundry, vending machines and a sink for washing dishes at the bathhouse. Toilets, showers and changing areas were provided inside and a fenced in pool just behind the bathhouse.
This is not a campground we would frequent - but I could imagine people staying here if visiting from out of town or if they needed to crash for a night. The views were beautiful down by the lake - but it was clear we were in suburbia.
