Have you ever camped in tent? How about a camper? Okay… and what about a tepee? Camping, as you know, comes in many forms from primitive, back country trips all the way to the other end of the spectrum where camping takes place in a $200,000 RV. Somewhere in the middle of that spectrum you’ll find tepee camping. You won’t find many tepees available in North Carolina but Blue Bear Mountain in Todd has you covered! Located a mere 20 minutes north of Boone, Blue Bear Mountain has tepees and once you see them, you’ll be on your iPad making a reservation.

And why not? The weather is perfect for tepee camping right now!

Blue Bear Mountain has a number of furnished tepees for rent. Most of the tepee sites also allow for at least one other tent to be erected, if your party is bigger than will fit in the tepee.

Each tepee is outfitted with a cozy queen mattress, linens and, you’ll love this: an electric blanket! Oh yeah… count me in!
