Hello from NC foothills.
My wife and I went in with friends to get 20 ac in the NC foothills. Short plan is to have pre-made sheds on site to use as camping cabins. Long range plans (5-7) will be log homes for retirement.

NC law is that as long you do not occupy a build for 24 hr consecutively and have no plumping or shore power, it can classify as a primitive camp. So we ordered 3 sheds from Pine View Builders. They delivered 2 of them this weekend.

We are also having a central composting toilet. Built a raised deck for it. I was a bit taller than needed, but will give us a storage area under it.

Solar power and gennys will be the power supply. Outdoor propane shower is next on build list. Right now using a trap around 3 trees, lol

No, just can't stay inside 24hrs. You have to go outside. It can't be used as primary residence. Only as a "camping" building

Yeah, this is my wife, her best friend and best friends moms, and me.

They started that she-sheds stuff.... I told them every time they said it, there would be one less thing "he" does around there, LOL

The sheds are from Pine Wood Builders. They have been great so far. They have basic wiring- you could hook a genny up to it and go- but I plan to add solar/ genny combo to ours
