The Devil's Tramping Ground is located in a forest near the Harper's Crossroads area in Bear Creek, North Carolina.

City/town information

This Little town is only about a 25 minute drive from Small and it is worth the drive. You hike or canoe along the Haw River. On Saturdays , for the farmer's market, there is live music. 2 great restaurants an English Pub, the Eddy, and 5 star gas station food. Yep! 5 Star. The General Store Café. Of course they do not rival our Small Café, but they are worth noting :-). The Eddy chef is a personal friend of Chef RL of Small Café.
