Beautiful place in the mountains

I camped here over the weekend with a friend and our dogs.

We were in campsite 62. Our loop was very private and shaded. The only negative point was the street light right across from us. It was pretty bright at night. Our campsite had a picnic table, a fire pit, a water spigot and electricity. There is also a little creek nearby, which was perfect for the dogs. 

The campground is very well maintained, and the bathroom was spotless. The staff, rangers and volunteers, were super friendly. If you forgot something, there is a little camp store on the property. 

Some of the campsites are directly on the water, but they were not very shaded. 

The park also has events scheduled. They had a cloggers dance group when we were there, which was very nice.

There are a lot of things to do in the area. Some of the hiking trails even start in the campground. You can also explore the grist mill with a nature trail or an old homestead. You have access to the AT about 10 miles away. 

Overall it is a very nice and clean campground in a beautiful state park. We would camp here anytime again.
