Windshield time when traveling on the back roads in North Carolina is positively beautiful,  no matter what part of the state you’re exploring. One of the best things about it, aside from the views of course, it is all of the roadside attractions found along the way. Near the tiny community of Laurel Springs just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, Wild Woody’s Campground and Antiques is like no other place we’ve encountered in the Tar Heel State.

While driving along this gorgeous road prepare to encounter a no-frills campground and three antique stores.

And the folks that run the place are so down to earth that visitors who stop want to hang out for a while for a bite to eat or just to pass some time at this laid back destination.

Visitors are also welcome to pay a small fee to pitch their own tent over in the camping area.

But why… when you can stay in one of Wild Woody’s campers? There’s even a camper that belongs on the back of a pickup truck!
