- Brian MHad a wonderful stay at Camp Karuga!! The hosts are very accommodating, it’s an especially great spot for motorcycle riders. The campsite was easy to access from the road! Clean bathrooms, campgrounds. And what an incredibly serene and peaceful location- right along a bustling creek. Will definitely be back! TY!!!

- Abu AI didn't have any plan to stay in a primitive camp while going to enjoy the Merle Fest, a Bluegrass festival at Wilkesboro community College. But I didn't have much choice other than getting this place, since all the hotels were taken long before. And the weather was heavily rainy. I was little scared to go to the camp in the beginning. Once I went there and seeing Kathy, and her son Gavin, and getting there help and assurance, I was feeling secure. As time went by, I started to fall in love with the place. Little stream with sweet sound of flowing water, birds' chirping constantly, and beautiful scenery of Blue ridge mountains gave me serene comfort, which cannot be compared with anything. Kathy and her two sons are always present for any kind of help. Bathroom is very clean, and cabins are beautiful and clean. This place is a gem in Blue ridge mountains. I am definitely going back, there, soon to enjoy the Fall foliage!

- Mary GThe cabin was perfect for storing our stuff, keeping everything dry. More than that, it gave our little one a secure place to sleep when she got scared tent camping. The firepit was ideal. We loved how close the bathhouse was and how clean it was. Can't wait to return.
