We live just off the Blue Ridge Parkway on a private road. Quiet is amazing along with the best temps in NC. We have grills and Firepit available if the desire to cook or relax is strong. Suggested Local Attractions:Doughton Park is less than 8 miles down the parkway and Sparta, NC is about 6 miles up 21. It's very rural community and nature is the attraction. We have many deer and other wildlife along with a huge supply of birds. The local hiking trails and quiet are our ways of getting out. Sparta does have restaurants and grocery stores. Off the Hill we are less than an hour from "Mayberry" otherwise know as Mt Airy, NC. There is a National Park campground with dump stations less than 7 miles down the BRP.

House Rules
Quiet is our offer to everyone. We enjoy company and relaxation and those are our rules. This is not a place with loud music just conversations and good times. We are campers and love to help share knowledge and experiences. We have 3 dogs and the neighbor across the way has pets also. So well behaved pets are a must and they should be leashed to minimize any issues.

Avid truck campers retired army! Details: Retired army, disabled veteran married to wonderful women who loves camping also. Fishing hiking photography and such are major time consuming events. Service dog and sidekick present at house. Love pets. Home Town: Both of us are transplants from Connecticut to North Carolina. We love the climate in NC but do try to escape to cooler temps in the hot summer months. Unfortunately, my wife is still working full time but we do travel to the mountains of NC and TN. Favorite Boondocking Locations: Anywhere anywhere anytime is my motto Skills or Expertise to Share: Pretty decent as a photographer and try to help people when we can. Good with computers and other technology issues along with helping Veterans find their way around the VA system (or lack of).

A wonderful first BD's experience. It was a pleasure to spend time with such kind and friendly people. And all our pets got along too.

We were met upon arrival and had a nice visit. Thank you for your service Mr. Mountainside. Parking was great for us, we have a van. I wouldn't park anything bigger than the 25ft suggested. Both Mr & Mrs Mountainside came out for a visit even though allergies were getting them down. Thank you! We were even offered wifi access. How nice since we had no cell signal! Great cool night! Enjoyed it tremendously!
