The Perch - Glamping tent with 1 King bed for 2 adults. En suite bathroom, Screened in porch.

BRAND NEW - The Perch at Wheat Creek Outpost offers a unique glamping experience on 30 acres in the beautiful North Carolina mountains. One of only two tents on the property, The Perch provides an intimate and peaceful retreat.

Enjoy modern comforts with a king-sized bed with premium linens, a ensuite bathroom, heating and air, and a well-equipped kitchenette. Step outside to relax on your covered deck or unwind around your private fire pit.

The Perch is a drive-up tent with parking for two cars right at your entrance, making it super easy to unload and settle in.

This is largest tent and provides the most authentic-style tent camping experience, perfect for guests who want to really connect with the outdoors. It does have heat and A/C and is fully climate controlled, but on beautiful days, you can open the whole tent up and let the mountain air in. A large Serengeti-style canvas door leads out to a covered, screened-in porch. You can even roll the screens up if you’d prefer it wide open.

Outside, you’ll find a dining table and two Adirondack chairs, perfect for meals or just relaxing. The Perch also includes its own private fire pit, ideal for unwinding under the stars.

Fun Fact: This tent held its ground through Hurricane Helene without a scratch. That’s how durable and top-of-the-line our glamping tents are—built to handle the wild, so you can relax in comfort. We're pretty proud of that.

Guests are also welcome to enjoy Wheat Creek Lodge, a shared space featuring games, a cozy lounge area, and a camp store stocked with snacks and everyday essentials. You’ll also find our “make-your-own” specialty coffee station, where you can whip up a latte, cappuccino, or espresso just the way you like it. Though a coffee maker as well as a drip coffee option is provided in your tent as well.

We’re perfectly located—just 45 minutes from Asheville, NC, and Greenville, SC; 30 minutes from Hendersonville and Spartanburg; and less than 15 minutes from the charming mountain towns of Tryon, Landrum, Lake Lure, and Saluda. The Tryon International Equestrian Center is under 10 minutes away and offers nightlife, dining, and a variety of events throughout the year.

You’ll also be just a stone’s throw from three fantastic local wineries. Parker-Binns, Mountain Brook, and Overmountain, as well as a great selection of local restaurants and breweries. Outdoor adventures like tubing, ziplining, and scenic hiking trails are just a short drive away.

Wheat Creek Outpost welcomes all well-behaved pups—and we never charge a cleaning fee and offer free Wi-Fi, available all over the property.
