Bear Creek Mountain Campground

We are stewards of the mountain and our cabins offer guests an authentic and off-grid Appalachian experience on 500 private acres atop the Newfound Mountains in Western North Carolina.

The Hike-In

Your mountain retreat begins with a 2 mile hike-in, kicking off at our Trailhead at the base of the mountain. The trail follows an old forest service road, beside a spring fed creek, which brings you gracefully to the top of the mountain. Verdant moss and the sound of trickling water accompany you as you climb 1,350 feet in elevation to reach your haven.

The Cabins

Originally built in the 1800’s in Douglas Lake, Tennessee, the main lodge is two stories and offers a loft upstairs with beds that accommodate up to 10 people. Downstairs offers one private bedroom, a cozy den with a library, a dining area, and a kitchen complete with a wood and gas stove. The front porch is spacious with ample seating, a porch swing, and one of the most iconic sunrise views in Western North Carolina!

Our upper cabin, located about 200 feet from the main lodge in a wooded setting, is a dovetail-style antique log cabin which includes a kitchenette, wood stove, half bathroom, campfire pit, and idyllic front porch. There is a king size bed in the main room and a loft that can sleep an additional 6 people.

The Property

We are located on 500 private acres at an average elevation of 5,000 feet atop the Newfound Mountains in Western North Carolina. Our only neighbors are a couple cattle farms and a few hundred acres of untouched land protected by the Southern Appalachian Highlands Conservancy.

We have 5 natural springs on property, including the one that feeds crystal clear water with a distinctly delicious mineral content directly to our cabins. A network of moderate to challenging hiking trails on property offers guests a self-guided tour of our lush landscape which is home to a diversity of tree flora including yellow birch, beech, locust, hickory, frasier fir, buckeye and tulip poplar. On our acreage you can also find copious amounts of wildlife, flowering plants, herbs, fruits, and mushrooms. Wild blueberries, strawberries, nettles, ramps, and red clover delight during spring and summer, while the fall boasts world famous foliage!

The high point of our property, Sandy Mush Bald, rises to 5,138 feet in elevation and is accessible via a steep .5 mile trail from the cabins. This vast mountain top meadow looks directly over the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and the infamous Max Patch area and offers guests what is arguably the best sunset view in all of Appalachia!

**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!!
