Winter Camping

Fancy Gap Cabins and Campground cabins with dusting of snow.

During our off season, which is November 3, 2025 to March 25, 2026, we offer boondocking for self-contained RVs. If you will be travelling in our area, please call 276-730-7154 to reserve your spot.

Starting March 13, we open up our camping cabins and tent sites for winter camping. Our motel remains closed all winter. Please note that winter camping on the Blue Ridge Parkway is available only if:

• The parkway is open.

• The roads on our campground are safe and not covered with ice and snow.

• The owners are onsite. Remember, winter is our time to rest, relax and take vacations.

Fully Contained RVs $25.00 per night,$26.33 per night with taxes

Call 276-730-7154 to let us know that you’d like to stay. No deposit is necessary. Pay upon arrival. In the winter, we have electric and sewer. Since the bath house and water hydrants are not available, campers must bring water and have their own bathroom to stay with us during the winter months. We don’t allow people to sleep in their cars during the winter. The temperatures at night are too low at night, and we don’t have bathroom facilities available.

Winter in the Cabins or Tent Sites

Starting March 13, 2026, we bring in port-a-jons and open our tent sites and cabins for those who are interested in a winter camping experience. You must bring water. Our well will still be winterized. The cost per night is reduced to $45 for cabins and $15 for tent sites. You must call ahead to check availability and make your reservation. Payment is due upon arrival.

Cabins and Tents Include

The cabins include floor heaters, and we have plenty of blankets, quilts and firewood. That means you don’t have to worry about keeping warm.

Each one-room cabin includes a queen size bed with all of your bedding, either a futon or bunk beds as well as a mini-fridge, microwave, coffeemaker and coffee cups, creamer and sugar. There is also hot chocolate and hot tea bags. Outside, enjoy the porch with chairs, charcoal grills and fire rings.  We have firewood, fire starters, matches, lighters and s’mores kits available in our store.

Tent sites have 110 outlets so you can plug in a heater. There is free Wi-Fi, fire rings, picnic tables and charcoal grills.
