5 minutes to Dupont State Park! Glamping with large covered deck & sunset views

Glamping at its best. Located five minutes away from Dupont State Park! One bedroom, one bath, open concept living room and kitchen. The best part of this property is the outdoor living space which includes a large covered deck, Weber Grill, cozy Adirondack chairs, and a fire pit.

Dupont State Park is the Disney Land of mountain biking. The property is just a few minutes from the popular Ridgeline trail and hundreds of other amazing trails located at Dupont State Forest.


Conveniently located 10 minutes from Pisgah National Forest, 15 minutes from Brevard, and 20 minutes from Hendersonville.

The camper is fully stocked with a TV (with Wi-Fi), fireplace, refrigerator, stove, coffee pot, toaster, mixer, and microwave. Linens and towels are provided. The bedroom is equipped with a queen size bed and several storage options. The couch folds out into a bed, and the dining area lets out into a small bed as well.

Father and Sons weekend glamping getaway.
Great host great location. Dupont Park is only about 5 Mi away. Brevard is only about 7 Mi away. Hendersonville is only about 15 to 20 miles away. Quiet peaceful well equipped camper. Glamping at its best. Absolutely excellent for two adults with maybe one or two children. Has everything you need for an excellent stay. I do plan on coming back very soon. Highly recommend this glamping experience.

Unfortunately our trip was cancelled due to Hurricane Helene. Brent communicated with me as soon as he was able to and even refunded the trip cost in full. I will absolutely reschedule and stay at this property or another one if he has others.

Mother and Son Hiking Trip
The property was beautiful and very clean. The outside deck was perfect for stargazing at night! The location was perfect for a visit to Dupont Recreational Forest as well as Pisgah. The inside was comfy. The only negatives were that the futon in the living room was very small and not very comfortable for an adult and I was unable to get the stove to work. However, overall it was a great stay.

Nice getaway spot
The RV is very attractive and well kept. The porch area is very nice with a great view. The main mattress is a little firm, but the two pull out/conversion beds worked great for our kids, ages 7 and 10. Great location.

Nice camper
Property was in a nice quiet space. The large porch and fire pit area were a very nice touch and gave us the chance to enjoy the outdoor space. It is a little dark outside if you’re getting in late but that was the only thing that was a challenge for us.

Great place to stay. It is a camper, so ceilings are pretty low, and bathroom is small, but it was comfortable and clean. We enjoyed sitting on the porch in the early morning and evenings. Things were easy to find, and well stocked. We would stay here again.

Nature retreat
This was the most relaxing week I’ve had all year in this beautiful spot surrounded by nature! This property is perfect, we sat on the covered porch for coffee every morning and watched the birds and a deer, then sat by the fire in the evenings and watched the sunset. The property is so well maintained, the flower garden is beautiful, the view is beautiful. The host had firewood and starters onsite. On the days it rained we were still able to grill (there were spices in the kitchen, new grilling utensils and an awesome grill, which also looks new) and had dinner on the covered deck while listening to music with the outdoor speakers. There are recliners for tv viewing or reading at night and the most plush bath towels, (which is a treat in a rental) It’s 5 min to the entrance to DuPont State Forest where we hiked to 3 amazing waterfalls, 15 min to downtown Brevard, 20 min to downtown Hendersonville, and 25 min to Headwaters outfitters, that the host referred us to and I highly recommend them for kayaking, tubing, fishing , they have a tap house and food trucks and a great shop. I can’t say enough about this property. I just wish I could add pictures. We will definitely be staying here again!

My husband and I stayed for 4 nights with our grandkids, ages 8 and 13. The camper was very clean, roomy, and equipped with everything we needed. We considered booking a cabin or hotel, but decided “glamping” would be more fun for the kids and we were not wrong. Great location for hiking in DuPont and Pisgah, with easy access to Brevard and Hendersonville.

Happy Anniversary to us.
This was a very relaxing stay for our 27th anniversary. The front porch has such a nice view. You won't find any nicer people to deal with if needed. This is so close to everything you may want to see so you may not be there very much unless you want to but it is still close enough to come back to and relax afterwards without a long drive.

Great location for local outdoor activities
Enjoyed our weekend in the Pisgah / Dupont area. The camper was the perfect distance to trails and a few great local restaurants. Highly recommend Pisgah Bake House. We enjoyed spending time on the deck in the morning and evenings. The camper is beside the road and has steady neighborhood traffic.

Cozy Camper tucked away close to everything
Brent has a great little spot up on a hill. It’s really close to DuPont and not far from Brevard, etc. The camper was a cozy and comfortable getaway for my family. The kids enjoyed the fire pit and the Smart TV. The deck is a great spot to hang out and take in the sunset. Brent was great to work with.
