    Hot Spings NC; Fall Hang 2021 ???

    SO we have had many hangs at the Hot Springs campground, both spring and fall. However, the owners have revised the campground sites since dealing with the "virus" mess, eliminating some and re-working others. The main group site we have used in the past is still there, BUT all the camp sites to the left (down river) have been eliminated. Thereby making it harder to have folks close by.

    They have added 4 new riverside group sites (adjoining each other) further up river, suitable for up to a max of 8 folks each. Here is the problem - we have no idea whether these are suitable for hammocks.

    Has anyone been there in the recent past and seen these sites (E1 thru E4)? Or can anyone close by do a recon and report back on suitability for hammocks on these sites.

    If we can get a "go" for these sites, a fall hang, most likely in November, can be scheduled.

    Thanks for the help.

    Hey this was the cadillac in car camping, did not have to drive no where and everything was in town. AT ran through main street. Whole family and friends at my campsite enjoyed it. Thanks Porter for taking us to Max Patch. A fall hang would be great.

    I don't need to make my pack lighter. I need to make my (_*_) lighter.

    Thanks. If you could get there it would be appreciated. Just too far for me to just spend 8 hours driving to recon the camp ground.

    Thanks for the offer. Let's wait a few more days and see if someone closer has a chance to go visit.
