Discover Grandfather Mountain State Park RV rentals for memorable road trips
In the northwestern corner of North Carolina, Grandfather Mountain State Park is located on a mountain that was privately owned until 2008. The mountain can trace its literary history back to 1794 when Botanist Andre Michaux wrote that he’d climbed “the highest peak in all of North America.” Because of the mountain’s sharp edges and dramatic sweeping views, it often appears to be far taller than it actually is.

Brandy, the host, was exceptionally accommodating. Every question we had was answered honestly and timely. The camper was spotless and bathroom was larger than it looks in photos. The master bed was very comfortable, but we did bring a extra mattress topper and pillows due to a preference for soft bedding. We did not need the AC or heating units. The stove top was propane and worked perfectly. The camper was easy to pull, I have an F150 with a V8 that easily hauled the load. Overall, the entire experience was outstanding and I would rent this camper from Brandy again.
