Mo and Bobby are just some awesome people. This is the best place to stay at if your on a motorcycle. They have everything that you would need. Nice clean cabin or even a tent, towels, soap, toothpaste you name it. You only need the clothes on your back! They have everything else for you. And don’t forget the homemade dinner OMG it’s so delicious and you never know what Mo and Bobby have whipped up!
Fantastic in every way. Start the day with a friendly breakfast and then ride the amazing roads all day. Return to camp for a tasty dinner and beverages around the camp fire with friends, old and new. Yes, they are the cleanest bathrooms and showers, always stocked with fresh towels. Can't wait to see you again this spring, Mo!
I found this site on the web. Great Place!! Great Folks!! Would go back in a heartbeat. Mo and Bob are super casual and really nice folks. They run a great motorcycle campground. Food was excellent and the facilities were really clean. Even though it rained every day we were there, we still had a great time. One piece of advice if you roll up before noon and don't see anyone around, don't worry. Roll out the bikes and take to the road. Mo will point you in the right direction when you get back. (she's a night owl and doesn't get going till noon,lol). Thanks again MO ! Drew & the Dude from Sweden.
This is not a hotel. It is not a resort. It is the kind of campground that avid motorcyclists tend to like. If there are other campers there when you are, then you will likely find you have new friends. The firewood is dry, the grass is lush, the pavilion and creek are sublime, the fireflies are bright and many. There's no TV. The cabins are for sleeping. This is the kind of place a rider wants to be after a day in the saddle on the fine roads all over the area. It's also a great home base for several days exploring the whole region. Folks who need to be plugged in to unwind are gonna be bored here. Folks who want to meet other riders around the campfire or just be quiet and fall asleep listening to the creek will feel like they've come home.
I recently stayed here while on a motorcycle trip with friends. I will definitely be going back. They provide sheets and towels, so you don't have to worry about those. There is also a nice place on their deck to relax in the evening. The location is central to many of the good roads in the area too.
Stayed there with our camper pull behind the bike. Super place and I'm so looking forward to going back again. When we went it was on the honor system, put money in the jar, it's been a long time since we were there. Everything was there we may have needed. The owners were superb.
Best place you can go on a bike. Mo and Bobby fix the best meals you will have in NC. Great friends and you will go back if you ever try it. Showers are very clean and towels are provided. Beautiful camping by the creek with a campfire circle every night. Friend of ours took us a few years ago and we keep going back.
This is a nice quiet laid back camp ground. Moe and Bobby are great hosts. I recommend staying here wether for the night or make it base camp for a week like we did. Some of the best motorcycle riding in the area surrounds the camp ground.

Short, honest notes are more useful than long ones. A few sentences about what worked, what surprised you, and who the hotel is best for will go a long way.
