- We visit another primitive campground that has not re-opened yet, but is a great one to visit traveling through Monroe Va on the parkway. Although pricey at $20 a night for NO hook ups! This campground is worth a look anyway.
We stayed there many times during the 70s and 80s. My grandparents loved it so much! Many beautiful memories
How awesome. We did not know it was around back then. Thanks for watching and sharing that history. Paul & Magen
Hi Kids! Thanks for sharing your Happy Place. Cheers!
Ninth Element thanks for watching!!
Nice Campground with a water feature thanks for sharing your little exploring trip with us y'all take care we'll see you soon
Very peaceful area here. Thanks for watching we appreciate you!
This is Dean. I used to live in the mountains of North Carolina (not far from the Blue Ridge Parkway). One of my favorite places that I ever lived. Beautiful country! Thanks for sharing. I saw a couple of places that would be perfect for our truck camper. :)
Hey Dean great to hear from you my friend! Yes it is in fact beautiful country. We enjoy the parkway and all its beauty. There are many campgrounds along the parkway and several just outside of it that are very nice. Since we bought the van our camping style has changed quite a bit. Maybe you guys will travel the parkway someday? We look forward to catching up with y'all and camping someday. Stay safe and thank you for watching we appreciate the support. ~Paul
Great video my friends. I love that area of our big beautiful country. Have fun and stay safe
Thank you for watching we appreciate your support !
Like it! Love the fact you are on the creek!
This is another nice campground. Just a shame the pandemic has closed them down. Thanks for watching! Paul & Magen
Nice review. Love the water flowing through!
Very peaceful with water. Love it! ~Paul
What a beautiful area. Hopeful that restaurant will come back to Otter Creek. Sounds like a wonderful place. Expect for the snakes. LOL
Yes we can do without snakes. The restaurant was so cozy and great food with a gift shop, we miss it. Thank you so much for watching. ~Paul
Looks peaceful
amazing video
Would like that spot next to the creek, except for the facts of snakes. Does look like a beautiful place and thanks for sharing :)
POA!! Thank you for being here! Yes the snakes! And whatever else may come from it! LOL.. we appreciate your support.

Nice video...good job....nice sites also...20 bucks...now that is a bargain.
We love that kind of spacing between sites. This was so laid back and calming. You guys have great voices for video. You do a really good job on your editing too. ❤️👍👏 Donovan & Jodi
We prefer these more primitive type campgrounds. We actually have several within one hour of home. Thank you for the kind words, but it’s like most things I do myself I am never happy, but as long as the viewers enjoy that’s all that matters. Thank you guys so much for your support!! ~Paul
Beautiful camping! Glad you are done tweaking on the Promaster, got it licensed and able to enjoy it. Good video Paul and Magen.
Thank you so much Linda! Yes now it’s time to go camp! We are headed to TN next week. Thanks for always watching our videos we appreciate you! ~Paul
Always love seeing new videos from y’all! Stay safe and good vibes coming to y’all from Houston!
Thank you! See ya in the next one!
We have camped at several of the campgrounds on the Blueridge Parkway and loved them. They are so peaceful and relaxing.
We hope to travel the parkway sometime and camp along the way. Having the van makes it more appealing being small and maneuverable. Thank you guys for watching we really appreciate your support! ~Paul
Hey! We met at Bonish. I’m so psyched to get our van and camp here! Sure we’ll meet again. Til then safe travels ✌️
Hey Kathy! Yes it was great meeting you. Thank you so much for watching our video we appreciate your support! The Bourbon bar was the highlight of our trip to Cedar Key. Good luck on your van. Cant wait to meet up on the road. Paul & Magen
Beautiful area! So scenic. The stream is beautiful. Pebbles enjoyed walking in the water! Campsites look nice and spacious. Thanks for sharing, Paul and Magen.
Hey guys! Thank you so much for watching we appreciate it. Peebles thinks she is a Lab! Hope you two are healthy.
What a beautiful park! I cannot wait to get back into those hills again!
Thanks for watching we appreciate it. We love the parkway, so peaceful.
Man you guys look like your having a great time
We are Bob! Thanks for stopping by. ~Paul
It's been so long since I have been in the Blue Ridge mountains. Hope to be up that way later this year. Otter Creek looks like a nice campground. It would be cool to actually see some otters there. It will be nice when they reopen.

Debbie I hope you guys can make this way, it is so relaxing and different than anything else. Not sure if they are reopening or not. The wildlife is abundant up there. Thanks for watching we appreciate it! ~Paul
Looks like an awesome place to camp ! Any place that has an awesome place to put a hammock is a pretty awesome place ! I would be asleep in just a few seconds next to the water.
I know right?! Hammock on the creek side and I am done! Thanks for watching! ~Paul
We LOVE the Blue Ridge Parkway!! I'm sure our 26 foot Gumby could camp there! Great camp review. ~ Diana
Perfect for Gumby! We hope to do more traveling on the parkway, it is so beautiful. Thanks for watching we appreciate the support! ~Paul
I love the Blue Ridge Parkway. Lived close to it most of my life. Amazing drive up and down. Seems every place is very well done and has something to offer. Dang those are nice sites and yes take all that wood for sure. I hope that little restaurant opens back up. $20 a night is not to bad for the area. Man watching this makes me miss home. Thanks for sharing y'all. Great stuff.
I really wanted that wood for sure. I assume when they open the campers can burn it up maybe. The grounds are usually groomed very nice but with the current situation the workers have not been mowing. I feel $20 is a bit high for no hook ups, not to say we won’t stay there because we will. The restaurant is very neat and has a gift shop. It closed a couple years ago when the state made cuts. We never understand how they justify it. Hey thanks for watching guys we appreciate it so much! ~Paul
I'll put up with the noise of that water LOL
Absolutely we love that noise😊
Desmond's Donders ..You must still be young. It sounds good during the daytime but at night it’s a whole ‘nother thang. When a person hits their 70s/80s, listening to that water run all night will likely have him/her sleeping on the commode with the bathroom wall as their pillow. Don’t ask me how I know, lol.
@@LaCatLady LO I am in my 60's
Desmond's Donders ...Stick around, Desmond. It gets “better” as you get older, lol. To paraphrase Bette Davis, “Getting old isn’t for sissies.”
WOW!! Love this campground. Totally stopping her on our visit this fall. Do you think a camper Sprinter van would fit int he B Loop? I really like that site number 1 you checked out. Thanks for sharing!
You should fit. This little campground opened back up shortly after this video. Definitely worth a visit. Thank you for watching we appreciated your support!
👏👏👏👏👏👍👍
That was a good campground so are you guys going to buy like a small Tow trailer to go with the pro master in the future?
Funny you ask. We have actually been shopping small campers around 12’ in length. Not sure yet but a cool idea. Thanks for watching. ~Paul
What Kind of fish in the creek? The fisherman in me wonders ha ha
They appeared to be trout. There is a stocked pond up stream.
the gsmnp passed a law requiring stickers to park anywhere within park here. wasnt sure if youd heard
We were not aware of that. Thank you for the information.
The music was too distracting for me to listen to you also.
Always gonna be snakes?! For real?
Yep that is a part of the nature up there. They are scared of you but still a shock to see one when off guard. Thanks for watching!
I am ashamed at the way the government takes care of our national parks, especially in NC, anything for the people, they don't give a shit
Agree. This little campground finally opened last year but the store and restaurant is falling down around itself. Really sad! Thanks for watching! Paul & Magen
