About this property
Campsite #3! Tent camping near Dupont State Forest!
Picnic table, fire ring, new on-demand hot water shower house and clean Porta-Jons! This spacious site rests directly on the bank of Crab Creek, with a panoramic view of a Blue Ridge Mountain farm across the creek, and the mountains beyond. 3 miles from the most visited State Forest in the United States, Dupont State Forest! Here you will find miles of beautiful hiking, horseback and mountain biking trails, with a magnificent waterfall around every bend. Go the other direction out of the campground and travel less than 10 minutes to the entrance to Pisgah National Forest, with more scenic waterfalls and views! 10 minutes to Brevard, N.C. or fifteen minutes to Historic Downtown Hendersonville, N.C. with unique shops and first class restaurants offer you so many options for your day-trip!
