"I would recommend renting the “off road” golf cart for fun. The only negative is the lack of bath houses."

"Nice place to camp for a few days - we had a campervan and were surrounded by huge, but quiet, RVs."
"We stayed at this rv campground while visiting the many things to see and do in Greensboro North Carolina. visitgreensboronc.com The rv sites are all pull thru nearly level, big gravel sites."
"Our site had a great view of the beautiful lake. There was a pool our kids could swim in until 7:00pm. They let us borrow a metal fire pit so we could make s’mores."
"This site along with sites 8 and 9 have electric so I was able to run an extension cord into my tent. This site has gorgeous views of the lake and seems to share a grill with #11. "

"Trash cans, fire pits, level spots, picnic tables were at every location. Easy access to the water, playgrounds & hiking trails were just moments away from the camper."

"Game room, store and grill. Spacious and level sites. Hiking trails and lake with small beach for swimming and fishing. Pet + horse friendly. Neatly kept. Kind and helpful host."
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 .
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
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.
GuideThe sites are very large, long and wider at the back, plenty of room for a big group or family. The bathrooms look new and they are clean. Here during the week so it's very empty and quiet.
TravelerWe visited Crosswinds campground at Jordan Lake State Park on the worst heatwave of the year. The great thing about this area is that the sites a well shaded. We were about 50 yards from the lake, with the wind blowing we still were comfortable all day. We stayed on Loop A, which is my favorite loop at the park. There’s no electricity or water at the sites. There are water spickets throughout the loop with potable water. The site is awesome! There’s a small pond beside it. The neighboring sites are close, but regular conversations can not be heard.this loop is always quiet even when there are a lot of people, but it’s never been full when I’m there. I didn’t do good with photos except for the food.
ScoutDecent campground in a beautiful location along Lake Jordan. Crosswinds Campground is one of several sites on the lake. We chose this location since the gates stay open all the time, while other sites have a curfew that can lock you out for the night.
The staff are super friendly and helpful. There’s apparently a camp host whom we never met and they’re on the site next to ours (not sure if they’re supposed to greet us or help us get acquainted with the site, but the staff member at check in was great and did all that when we arrived).
Loop C is quiet, very few children, and less road noise compared to the other loops, but doesn’t have the same access to the lake.
Site C50 is conveniently located close to the bath house, has a large fire pit with adjustable grill, picnic table, and hookups for water and electricity. We’re in a tent, so really just use the electricity. The picnic table here should be replaced, as the wood seems to be rotting, but still does the job. There are a few sites in loop C that do have direct access to the lake, but those tend to be booked all of the time. We explored one last night and couldn’t believe it was vacant and how much nicer it seemed.
Bathrooms are not as clean as I would like, but I bring disinfectant wipes to wipe the toilet before use. Showers are fine, but use an annoying motion sensor to turn the water on/off. Showering at night is annoying with the bugs because the bathhouse is lit like a beacon (probably for safety). Waiting for the daytime is a better experience. Also, there isn’t a washing station for dishes, and we do that at our site.
Firewood can be purchased by the staff at the campground entrance; however, the exact same firewood is almost $4 fewer at a Refuel station down the street. Definitely stop into that gas station store for things you might need.
Overall, really good experience staying here, some annoying things, but won’t ruin your stay.
ScoutReally fantastic spot to camp! Great sites and hook ups (no sewer, but EASY dump station)! Go for Loop B - it has the beach.
TravelerI don’t have any complaints about this campground! Sites are nice and feel like you aren’t close to anyone else. Very pretty area, quiet. Newest bathhouse I have ever seen at a state park! Awesome showers.
ScoutIs a very basic campground they are having allot of plumbing issues. no activities for the kids no hot tub, store, restaurant or music on weekends anymore
Camping near Ramseur, North Carolina offers diverse experiences across varied terrain that ranges from lakeside settings to mountain foothills. The area sits at elevations between 400-800 feet, with moderate humidity levels and temperatures typically 5-10 degrees warmer than the mountain regions to the west. Several campgrounds maintain seasonal operation schedules, with most sites closing or limiting services between November and March.
Fishing at Lake Reidsville: Access multiple fishing spots at Lake Reidsville Recreation Park, located about 30 minutes from Ramseur. "The dock area was a favorite spot of mine — great for fishing, relaxing, or just soaking in the peaceful atmosphere," notes Luis V.

Hiking near water: Raven Rock State Park offers unique hiking experiences along the Cape Fear River. "The trails are nice and short, not too much exploration. Best advice is there are some big rocks in the river at various locations that you can lay on and take a nap," notes Cruz F. Most trails range from 1-3 miles and are rated easy to moderate.
Explore disc golf courses: Several campgrounds maintain disc golf courses for guests. Lake Reidsville Recreation Park features a complete course with rental equipment available. "Disc golf course, playground, picnic area and nature trail," mentions Leigh R.
Creek-side relaxation: At Moonshine Creek Campground, the natural waterway creates a peaceful setting. "This park has a wonderful creek running through the middle of it and most short-term sites back up to it," says Ruth P. The creek is shallow enough for wading in most areas.
Natural rock features: Some sites offer unique geological elements. "You can also swim in the Fish Traps, which is a unique cluster of rocks on the river," reports Cameron D. about Moccasin Branch. These formations create natural pools during summer months.
Clean facilities: Many campers specifically note well-maintained bathrooms. "The bathhouse for this area has two toilets and two showers. Each is completely private. There are outlets and sinks in all four," Rebecca notes about Moonshine Creek's facilities.

"The tent cabin and tent sites with water and electric" at Moonshine Creek provide comfort while maintaining a connection to the outdoors.
Seasonal closures: Many campgrounds operate limited schedules. "No full-timers, as the park is closed during the winter," mentions Ruth P. about Moonshine Creek Campground. Always check operating dates before planning your trip.
Cell service varies: Connectivity fluctuates throughout the area. "Surprisingly good cell reception for being in the mountains and having lots of tree cover. Got 1-3 bars ATT depending on where I was within the campground," reports Ruth P.
Highway noise at some locations: Greensboro KOA sits near Interstate 40, affecting sound levels. "This campground is only 100 yards from the Interstate! Lots of road noise all night. Very noisy especially in a tent," warns Joel R. Consider packing earplugs if sensitive to noise.
Varying site quality: Even within the same campground, site conditions can differ significantly. At Deep River Campground, Corby M. found issues with "trash everywhere with broken pieces of metal and half chewed dog bones strewn about," while other campers reported clean sites.
Zoo proximity: Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park provides convenient access to the NC Zoo. "We were 15 mins from the zoo which was amazing. Your close to stores and restaurants if you want but far enough out that it doesn't feel close," says Tucker M.

Limited bathhouses: Some campgrounds have fewer facilities than expected. "The only negative is the lack of bath houses.

Quiet zones available: Morrow Mountain State Park offers designated low-noise areas. "Good campground with a decent bathhouse. Nice campground with a decent bathhouse," states Jen P. The park maintains separate loops with varying noise policies.
