Campfire Lodgings

This place was absolutely amazing. We loved our time here! It’s on top of a mountain and there are amazing sunset views. We spotted this place online before we decided to buy an RV and it definitely lived up to our high expectations. There are premium sites and deluxe sites. The premium sites have an amazing view right from their sites. The deluxe ones still have nice views, but not quite like the deluxe ones. However, there is a common area where you can go that has the best view of all! That’s where we watched the sunset every night and it was fun getting to know the other campers. We saw a black bear and turkeys in the campground too! The staff is super helpful. Each site has a trash can so you do not have to worry about making dumpster runs. Be sure not to get there early - the one way road going up to the campground is steep and I’m not quite sure what would happen if you met another RV!

We loved our week long stay here and will be back! It’s a higher price point, but so worth it if you can splurge a little, especially for the spots with a view. We loved our spot P5! The road getting up the hill is a bit bumpy and curvy. The laundry room and showers are totally decent, nothing fancy, but like I said it’s the view and location you’re paying for. The staff/owners are soooo incredibly friendly and accommodating and really take pride in their business.

We stayed here for two nights in Sept 2019. Our site was P4 and we had a lovely view. The sites are close but thoughtful landscaping provides some decent privacy. The road leading up to the campground is mostly gravel and quite curvy so be prepared for that! The bathhouse had laundry facilities and each bathroom had a shower. The bathrooms were pretty clean. The campground was very quiet. They are a dog friendly campground without breed restrictions, which is important to us.
I will say the sites with the best views are P4, P5 and P8. But everyone can hang out at the overlook between site P5 and P8. Gorgeous view of the French Broad River at site P8 and the overlook. I would definitely stay here again!

Charming and rustic place is a windy gravel drive to the top of a mountain. Our site was a little tricky to get into, but managed with some help from a friendly neighbor. The views from the picnic area and a few of the choice sites is incredible. None of the pictures do it justice. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Short drive to Asheville which is such an awesome town. We will definitely be back and, hopefully, score one of the Mountain View sites!

This place is fantastic. I was greeted by Jason and he happily offered to help me back in since I was alone and the sites back in on the non drive side. He was very friendly and helpful and gave me all the tips for staying here. Marissa was also super friendly and accommodating over emails and via phone when I made my reservation. Good people.

The premium sites have full hookups and a sewer connection as well. Had no issues. Also had about 30+ over the air tv channels. ATT and Verizon are both quite strong here and the campground WiFi seems pretty good!

The half mile gravel mountain road to get to the campground has a couple tight turns and can be soft when rainy so have a capable TV and take it slow.

Overall I would highly recommend.

Our preference is normally for National and State Park type places but Asheville had been on the list for a long time and Campfire Lodgings came highly reviewed. It was everything we could have hoped for with a full-hookup, private park and it’s owned by passionate and friendly people.

The park was beautifully maintained and felt close to nature. Sunsets from the top of the mountain were incredible. The location was perfect, everything in Asheville was 20 minutes away and about the same to get to the Blue Ridge Parkway for hiking.

The road up to the park is a few minutes on a windy, mostly unpaved road that makes you think twice about running out for something you forgot.

We booked 10 months out and still couldn’t get a Premimum site during peak leaf season. We’d definitely plan our schedule around their availability when we return.

We would not have chosen a premium space but are glad that it was all that was available. The views made it worth it! Our site was level; a great size for our 25ft trailer and truck. It's a compact campground but well cared for.

The staff was so friendly as were other guests. It's an easy drive to town for all that Asheville has to offer.

The best surprise for us was the trail system on the property! We're likely to make this our go-to for future trips to Asheville.

We've been wanting to stay here for awhile. I'm so glad we finally made it. Great location. Close to the Biltmore and downtown Asheville. It was nice to have hiking trails right off the campground. The views were amazing, as were the sunsets! I liked that it only has 17 spots for RVs, so it's a really quiet setting. Bathrooms and showers were spotless. Each site has it's own trash container, that was emptied frequently. No need to lug garbage to a dumpster. We will definitely go back. I'm sure it's quite spectacular in the fall.
