7 campgrounds with availability next weekend
RV parks near Albemarle provide varied options for motorhome travelers. Morrow Mountain State Park Campground offers electric and water hookups with sites that accommodate medium-sized RVs, though larger rigs may find navigation challenging on some interior roads. Norwood Campground features full hookup sites with a mix of sun and shade, located minutes from Lake Tillery with good tree coverage for privacy between sites. Midway Campground Resort includes family-friendly amenities with full hookup sites, though some travelers note the sites aren't necessarily level for larger rigs. Crown Cove RV Park provides big rig friendly sites with 50-amp service, sewer connections and water hookups, though sites are positioned close together. "Very clean and well maintained campground! Great for long term camp sites! Very easy to deal with the workers as they are friendly and will take care of you!"
Throughout the region, most RV parks remain open year-round, though Morrow Mountain's peak season runs spring through fall with limited winter availability. Dump stations are available at most parks, with Cobble Hill RV Campground (formerly Carolina Rose) offering both 30 and 50-amp service along with sewer hookups at each site. Cell service varies significantly, with stronger Verizon coverage reported at Lake Norman State Park but spotty reception in more remote locations. Many parks accommodate pets with designated areas, though Crown Cove enforces strict rules about keeping belongings within site boundaries. Based on reviews from The Dyrt, travelers should prepare for potentially unlevel sites at some locations: "Sites are not necessarily level and big rigs might have a hard time navigating the campground, but folks are friendly and it's a nice place to spend a few days."
"There is a play ground and game room for older kids but nothing for the smaller children to do. If it was just adults going, or even older children maybe 7 and up it would be a great location."
"Definitely not the campground to book if you are looking to enjoy the surroundings/scenery as things are very packed in. Close enough to Winston-Salem to do day trips though."
from $47 / night
"They have 30 amp and 50 amp sites to suit your needs. There is a nice restaurant to eat at, a small convenience store, arcade games, 3 pools and a ton of activities."

"Loved my stay here with my family and extended family. NC was a perfect place to hold a family reunion. We camped here and 2 other places, and loved every second of it."
"Some amenities. Bass lake is small, but nice and the weather was beautiful so it was a nice setting as the evening feel. Fun watching all the turtles in water bobbing in and out."
"I lived here for two years on a long term spot. If short term you will be In a small gravel lot. There are no amenities, no shower houses. No frills."
"Sky's the sinery all just gerogous"
"Ivory Clay Farm is now bookable on The Dyrt and offers a nice quiet place to rest just outside of the Winston-Salem & Greensboro Area. "

GuideDriving 14 1/2 hrs I was cooked called and had the most easiest booking. There was a sites available so I booked it. Needless to say I got there in the dark and a kind person helped me to my site and got me backed in. Soo exhausted I hooked up electric only hit the bed passed out
GuideStopped here after our fiasco with holly bluff. Beautiful campground with trees. Very quiet during the day and peaceful. The only thing we found curious was the vehicle in and right back out activity between 10:30-pm and 1am back and forth to campers that were long term stays. Made nighttime hard to sleep in site 3 with vehicles back and forth for hours .
GuideStopped in to get a spot for a few nights nights because it said they had available rv spots Unfortunately they didn’t know which end was up and tried to squeeze us into a spot that might have hookups that maybe worked but they couldn’t be sure. It was a joke. We left after waiting several minutes waiting while they were looking for a place to maybe squeeze us in because we had a small camper. No thanks. Would not recommend staying here til they get there act together
RangerWhen I’m traveling through the area, I do my best to stay here. It is a peaceful and well kept campground. It is an adult and a kid friendly environment. It’s one of the few places you can feel safe. I highly recommend this place.
ScoutLooking for a nice place for a camping getaway? We highly recommend checking out the Deep River Campground in Asheboro, NC. The location itself is beautiful. It is literally on the Deep River and features a hiking trail that runs along the river past the remnants of a historical damn, where a small area of rapids gently swirls around the big rocks spanning the river. There’s also a large lake with a nice grassy expanse for picnics, playing games or just lazing around lakeside. This campground has been around for a while, but it has new owners now and they are breathing some for real new life into the place. They have already made lots of repairs and improvements, and you can see more in progress. There are sites for RVs with all the hook-ups, and great primitive sites for tent camping, several located right on the river. If you don’t have an RV and sleeping on the ground doesn’t spark joy, they have a few small rustic but nicely-appointed cabins. You’ll find two pools, several covered picnic shelters, a playground for the small ones, and several options for older kids and adults to play, like a horseshoe pit and a nice game room. They also have planned activities like movie nights and weiner roasts most evenings to entertain and create community among campers. They are pet friendly and have their own pet mascots on site— a flock of ducks including beautifully colored teals and mallards. We were just there for 2 nights, but I have a good feeling we’ll be visiting there again soon. Definitely worth a visi
TravelerThis property should not be advertised. It was next to a cow pasture and the flies were horrible. We could not even get out of our van. The other trailers there were obviously long term and not well maintained. The inn had n the property was dilapidated and closed. Nothing in the description was anything like our experience. We decided to leave after seeing the condition of everything. Real bad.
RangerWas a monthly Camper when I came in to the campground. Nobody was cleaning the men’s room. No one was trying to collect the fall leaves. This is an old run down campground. I cleaned the men’s room for free because there was no staff to clean. I regret helping the owner for free on multiple occasions.
TravelerThis is/was marked as dispersed camping but this is primarily an OHV area, with a shooting range nearby that can be heard from some campsites. Most, if not all, of the campsites are intended to be large group sites. The empty site we found was filled with trash, discarded tents, air mattresses, and trashed electronics from OHVs. There's so much trash we would not even be able to take it all out with us if we wanted to. This may be a national forest, but it is not peace and quiet as one would expect from "dispersed and primitive" camping.
GuideThere was other people camping and running their generators all night. Some low lifers on ATV blasted in and out of the parking area and blasting music at 2 am. Good luck getting any sleep here. But enjoyed the trail to it and the forest. Got at least 2 hours of sleep before I packed up.
Many RV sites near Albemarle, North Carolina provide access to the Uwharrie National Forest and nearby lakes, with elevations ranging from 400 to 600 feet creating varied camping terrain. The region experiences mild winters with average lows around 30°F, making year-round camping possible at several campgrounds that remain open throughout all seasons. Water access is particularly notable with Lake Tillery, Badin Lake, and Lake Norman all within driving distance.
Fishing at multiple lakes: Lake Myers RV Resort offers proximity to several fishing spots where campers can catch bass and sunfish. "I cought 2 sunfishes in 30 min & I'm no fisherman," reports one visitor at Forest Lake RV and Camping Resort, highlighting the accessible fishing opportunities in the area.
Mini golf and recreation: Several campgrounds feature mini golf courses and other recreational amenities. At Thousand Trails Forest Lake, families appreciate the diverse activities: "2 swimming pools, camp store, snack bar, fishing pond, basketball court, mini golf, & playground equipment."
Water activities: Swimming pools are common at campgrounds near Albemarle, with some locations offering multiple pools. "There is a nice restaurant to eat at, a small convenience store, arcade games, 3 pools and a ton of activities," notes a camper about the water and recreation options at Forest Lake.
Farm experiences: Some campgrounds feature unique agricultural elements. Cobble Hill RV Campground (formerly Carolina Rose) offers "fresh eggs in camp store from chickens on site. Goats and a horse also live here," according to one visitor, providing an uncommon camping experience with farm animals.
Planned activities: Holiday events and regular activities create social opportunities. Forest Lake impresses with its entertainment calendar: "There were activities planned to include an outdoor movie (with free popcorn), arts & crafts for the kids, candy bar bingo, and a DJ."
Secluded camping: For campers seeking quieter alternatives to busy RV parks, Ivory Clay Farm offers "a great relaxing get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life!" with opportunities for "relaxing & enjoying the bonfires, sunsets, wildlife & star gazing."
Site levelness varies significantly: Several campgrounds present challenges for larger vehicles or require extra work to level. "Sites are not necessarily level and big rigs might have a hard time navigating the campground," notes a visitor about Lake Myers.
Seasonal staffing affects amenities: Off-season visitors should check which facilities are open. One camper at Forest Lake noted: "Unfortunately a lot of the activity type things (arcade, mini-golf, horseshoes, etc.) weren't available because we visited in the off season."
Cell service inconsistency: Work-from-campground travelers should note connectivity varies by location. At Lake Myers, one camper reported: "Verizon service has 2 bars. Occasionally got a little spotty while working, but our hotspot worked enough. Streaming did get dicey."
Some campgrounds have strict rules: Crown Cove RV Park enforces specific regulations: "For the 3 pages of rules and regulations I was expecting a pristine campground," though experiences vary as another visitor mentions it's "very clean and well maintained."
Check age-appropriate activities: Not all campgrounds cater to all age groups. At Lake Myers RV Resort, a family found limited options for younger children: "There was not much at all for them to do other than play in the pool...There is a play ground and game room for older kids but nothing for the smaller children to do."
Consider cabin options: For families wanting camping without tenting, multiple campgrounds offer cabin accommodations. Camp Henning at Ellerbe Springs provides an alternative with its "14 RV sites to choose from and 42 beautiful acres to explore," though it's worth noting this property was purchased in 2022 with new owners continuing development.
Look for family-friendly amenities: Pools, playgrounds, and organized activities enhance family camping. One visitor to Cobble Hill noted the cabins are "REALLY nice, I was very impressed...The pool was well located but busy, which was okay all the families and kids were having a great time."
Check road conditions within campgrounds: Interior roads can be challenging at some locations. One RVer at Forest Lake cautioned about "roads are the worst pot holes speed bumps that are curbs!" while others mention narrow roads that make larger rig navigation difficult.
Consider site placement: Request specific site information when booking. At Lake Myers, a camper advised: "The spots are really close together. And the roads are sooo narrow," suggesting careful planning for larger rigs.
Hookup positioning matters: Pay attention to the arrangement of utilities. One visitor to Forest Lake "didnt like the way they had the waste lines set up, and i kept smelling raw sewage," indicating that even full-hookup sites can present practical challenges depending on their configuration.
