**Camp Driftwood Asheville is a rustic riverside retreat, just outside of Asheville, North Carolina. Our family-owned and operated vacation hideaway spans a third of a mile directly on the banks of The French Broad River, rumored to be *the third oldest river in the world!***

**​Camp Driftwood offers travelers a variety of vacation accommodations. Choose from; 8 primitive riverside tent sites, 3 Glamping Cottages, and 3 Vacation Homes. Whichever you choose you will have direct access to the river, a fire ring, a picnic table, and space to sit next to the water. **

**​All guests are welcome to stroll the length of the property and enjoy the Community Areas, including; the Swimming Beach, a Fishing Beach, the Tree Swing, the Rapids, and the large Community Fire Pit.**

All of the camping is primitive. All camping is for tents/cars only and we do not have room for any campers/RVs. Even some vans are too long, please check with us on vehicle length. It is an easy in and out, and you park at your site. Glamping Cottages, ie no kitchen or bathroom are also available. Each is quirky and fabulous. They all have queen beds, well appointed with good mattresses and nice linens. They all offer kitchenettes, with minifridges, microwaves, and coffee makers. Each provide a covered outdoor sitting space and satellite TV, as well as temperature control via mini-splits. Kick camping up a notch and Glamp instead!

Portable toilets span the southern end of the property, near the tent sites. And we have a single-stall bathhouse in the center of the Camp, near the cabins. There is potable water from a yard hydrant near the bathhouse, along with an outlet if you are tent camping and need to charge something.

**We offer a passive campground experience geared toward adults, we don't actually allow guests under 12 yo without prior management approval. There are no fences or safety measures in place along the river. We don't have a camp store, there is no office-no playground surrounded by mulch, you'll have to bring your own ice cream. But..we do have direct access to an incredible ancient river, and a thriving mountain City-the best kind of playground! **The sound of the water will captivate you no matter where you are in Camp.

All of this in a very convenient location..just 15 minutes from downtown Asheville. Shopping and conveniences are only 3 miles away in Weaverville. The camp is located right below Old Marshall Highway (River Road), a super popular road biking route, but you do hear vehicles, mostly during work hours. There are train tracks across the River, which we think is a super cool WNC feature, but some things to be aware of.

Load up your pups, tubes, SUPS, and bikes, and spend a couple of days with us at Camp Driftwood Asheville! Leave no trace and Enjoy the River!!



Camp Driftwood Asheville

Located alongside the North Toe River, these beautiful camping rentals make the perfect glamping escape! The 16x20 tents offer different bed and floor plans.

Outercamp, Hoot Owl Ridge

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.

Small family farm 20 minutes outside Asheville. Our property is in the valley surrounded by mountains along Cane Creek. Along side our tiny cabin are (2) camping spots, all surrounded by woods with a beautiful view of the mountains facing east.

The property has many free range chickens, that are very friendly and may come up looking for a treat. We have dogs and cats that are all friendly to adults and kids.

Secluded, yet only a short drive to Asheville, Black Mountain, Lake Lure, waterfalls and hikes!

Sage Nesbitt Farm

Nice secluded tent campsite on an angora bunny farm. Listen to the sound of the mountain creek while you sleep, and cuddle with bunnies by the running water wheel during the day. Very relaxing spot to decompress and unplug on 7 acres that are mostly wooded. Pitch your tent in a wooded area by a beautiful creek covered by rhododendrons. Have a private campfire, and access to a camping shower and toilet. You will be out of sight from the main house, but feel free to take the short walk and see the bunnies. If you would like the opportunity to groom them, just ask!

Pisgah National Forest is just two miles away with plenty of hiking to explore. The charming town of Burnsville is just 10 miles on a beautiful, scenic highway. Homeplace Brewery, Birdfoot Taproom, and Snapdragon are among the local spots to visit. Asheville is also nearby at just under an hour’s drive.

The trail entrance to Big Butt is a couple miles away with a few great overlook points. If you want to do the whole 24 mile length of the trail (featuring 5 mountain peaks above 6,000ft), I can make shuttle arrangements for your party to be picked up at the end.

Navitat Ziplining is very close, as well as gorgeous flower farms and Mountain Light Sanctuary to visit over in Barnardsville. Come enjoy our mountain community!

It’s definitely a place to unplug as there is no cell reception. WiFi is available reaching from the main house all the way to the pond. Sometimes WiFi will reach the campsite, but it will be faint. There is a hammock and other seating available to lounge and connect to the internet.
