I am offering my home as a step-up from the Walmart parking lot. It is quiet and mostly level. Water may be available but outside connection is usually shut off during winter to prevent freezing. Pets under 10-lbs only as I have an indoor/outdoor cat and older small dog. Please clean up after your pets and yourself. I welcome guests looking for a safe, quiet place to park for a night or two. All requests considered. Suggested Local Attractions:Located near major shopping (5 miles). Convenient to High Point, Kernersville, Greensboro and Winston-Salem.

Location

Access Road Conditions: Access is from a gravel road. Somewhat hilly with 1 sharp turn at the beginning. Best suited for Class B's, teardrops and other small trailers and vans. Class C's may work but due to overhanging limbs on road you enter at your own risk. Amazon and the UPS truck make it regularly, though.

Age:

55-65

Sight Seer Details: Just completed my first 7-day trip in preparation for a coming cross-country trip in the spring. I have lots of room but don't think bigger rigs would be able to navigate my road, more suitable to class-C and vanlifers. Home Town: Kernersville is located in the area known as the Piedmont Triad, defined by the cities of Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point, North Carolina. My hope is actually outside of the city limits, closest to High Point. Favorite Boondocking Locations: I'm new to boondocking but on a recent trip I stayed in friends driveways, on the street in front of their houses, and even a few parking lots, including Walmart. Skills or Expertise to Share: Good listener?

    The site was great, with easy access to electric and water hookups. James was very friendly, welcoming, and helped me set up and get comfortable. We had some great conversations about RVing and camping. It isn’t a fortress at all, but a hospitable haven! I highly recommend a stay im this lovely spot.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Fortress Of Solitude. Our communication with James was always quick and helpful. We also enjoyed our conversation with James about our vans and plans for upcoming trips. We will definitely try to stop by again in the future if our travels bring us to this area.

    I had a nice stay the the Fortress of Solitude, which lives up to its name especially given the location. James was a great host, he went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and make sure I enjoyed my time in the area. Would definitely stay again

    James is a gracious host. The road leading to his home is winding, narrow and gravel, but because of his communication before I arrived, I knew what to expect. James's property is a perfect location for anyone visiting the Triad region.
