Primitive Camping by the River

Stayed here for one night. Lansing, NC is located in Ashe County and has some very good fly fishing nearby. The campground is run by the city of Lansing and is located 1 mile north of Lansing, just off highway 1353. The entrance sneaks up on you, so be careful. The "road" to the campground is short and steep. Expect muddy conditions if it recently rained.

The campground has 13 sites which can be reserved by calling the town's official phone number ($20 tents/$25 for camper). You can have up to 2 small tents or a small camper per site. There are no hook-ups of any kind. There is no water on site. You get a fire pit, a trashcan, a stand alone cooking grate and a porta-potty (located by the entrance).

Nearby is the Creeper Trail park (1 mile to the town of Lansing) where you can hike, bike, fish and picnic near Big Horse Creek. Lansing has some basic food options. Absolutely no cell service (Verizon) anywhere in the county, so be prepared. GPS unit worked fine.

Overall, a decent and inexpensive place to stay for a night or two. I didn't set up a tent, but the area is level and maybe on a longer return trip. This place is remote and the locals love their loud engines. Especially at night. The campground backs right up to Highway 1353 and traffic is moving along here until about 11:00 at night. You hear every vehicle and see headlights. There is some light pollution from a gas station along the highway.
