Winding Stair Campground

We just spent a long wedding weekend here with a group of Atlanta friends. We stayed in the in the Hey, Barn. It was magical! The entire place has little hideaways where you can read, soak your feet in the Nantahala river or just stroll around. It’s about 15 acres total. If you want more strenuous activity, it’s right across the street from the Appalachian Trail as well as other incredible hikes. The setting is ideal for groups of friends/family since there are many sleeping option. The huge pavilion is where your group can meet up for meals and fireside fun. All this and the prices are a great value for everything they offer. Check out the website and book your Fall trip now!

Great property: Limited #/high quality camp sites. + Apartment option which is very nice. Husband & Wife Owner/Mgmt Team (personally invested) Located on (beautiful) Working Farm Perfect Nantahala River Trout Fishing. Good People. Good Spot. My 1st but not my last visit. Highly Recommended:)

Wow, what a great stay we had glamping with my 94-yr-old mother and sister and our two dogs at the River House with the sound of the Nantahala River at night. The farm animals were charming and the bath house so comfortable. Thank you Robyn Anderson for making everything perfect for our stay at beautiful Winding Stair Farms!

We had a wonderful experience with this campground and the staff there. They were incredibly responsive, helpful, and understanding when we had to change our plans last minute due to other travel complications. Beautiful grounds, unique sites, and amazing amenities. Will definitely stay here again in the future!

Elevated camping where there is something for everyone! No matter what time of year the weather is always at least 10 degrees cooler in the mountains which is a godsend in the summer. So many amenities and unique sites! The Nantahala River runs right through the property and you can camp at sites along the rivers edge and sleep to the gentle sounds of the cascading water. We caught a rainbow trout just last weekend. The shared pavilion is an architectural treat and the clean bathhouse was wonderful. The kids enjoyed the farm and animals next door as well as the amazing water mill built by the owners. It’s a great gathering place for events with our extended family. A variety of great hiking trails are only 10-30 mins drive away. We hiked Rufus Morgan trial to a lovely waterfall. We’ve been spoiled and can’t imagine going anywhere else. Once you get there you don’t want to leave!

Absolutely magical! ✨We had the BEST time here! We stayed in the canvas tent on the river. It has electricity, a space heater, a nice fan, a kettle, and an electric blanket if needed. We have 2 small children and I didn't hear them say “I’m bored” the entire weekend! Lots to do with the river and the farm. Very friendly and helpful staff. Extremely clean site. We will definitely be back!

Our family loved the campground! The sites were nicely spread out and the entire campground was really beautiful, clean and natural. They offered several kinds of sites including primitive tent sites, cabins, apartments and our favorite the glass house with a green house on the site to use, which was put to good use with all the rain we had while camping, a dry place to cook and hang out was awesome! We loved touring the farm and the gunieas running around freely were so cute! There were so many unique touches throughout the campground making it not only inviting but also comfortable. Would highly recommend a stay here for anyone you won't be disappointed!
