One guest shared, "The camping options are very unique and diverse. The tiny houses are some of the most unique campground rentals I've ever seen." Lake Powhatan in the National Forests of North Carolina offers glamping tents on raised platforms with large beds and decorated interiors, providing an upscale outdoor experience without sacrificing comfort.

Hiking trails wind directly from the glamping sites at both locations, with Lake Powhatan featuring a scenic path around the lake and a small beach perfect for swimming during warmer months. A visitor noted, "The gorgeous tent was on a platform and included a large bed and decorated interior. The site had a campfire ring and the campfire wood was there for us." Emberglow's resort-style amenities include a swimming pool with built-in seating, pavilion area with picnic tables, outdoor movie screen, performance stage, and an inflatable jumping pad for families. Both locations provide excellent access to nearby attractions—Emberglow sits just 20 minutes from Lake Lure and Chimney Rock, while Lake Powhatan offers proximity to the North Carolina Arboretum and Asheville's cultural attractions. Most glamping accommodations require advance reservations, with Emberglow's premium options often booking several months ahead.
