Just 30 miles north of Winston-Salem, Hanging Rock State Park is located in the Sauratown Mountain Range. Named for the early Saura peoples who once inhabited the area, this range towers over the surrounding country, with peaks reaching nearly 2600 feet in elevation. The park derives its name from the large quartzite escarpment that “hangs” over the valley below. Established in 1936, the park initially encompassed 3100 acres, but has grown to 7900 acres since 2015. With its proximity to the suburban areas of Stokes County, the park serves as a backyard playground for hikers, mountain bikers, equestrians, rock climbers, paddlers, anglers and campers.
The 73-site campground in Hanging Rock State Park is an ideal basecamp for enjoying all the outdoor activities the park has to offer. Campsites can accommodate tents, popups and limited RVs; there are no hookups or dump stations at this location. Each site is equipped with picnic tables, grills and tent pads. Drinking water is available at several locations in the campground, and there are two bathhouses with hot showers. There are also five primitive group campsites with picnic tables and fire circles; drinking water and vault toilets are available nearby. If you don’t feel like roughing it, the park also offers 10 vacation cabins. Each of these are equipped with a kitchen, bathroom and sleeping accommodations for up to six.
When you’re ready to play, there are more than 20 miles of multiuse trails in Hanging Rock State Park for hiking, biking and riding. Trails vary in length and difficulty, so drop by the visitor center and pick up a trail map. For the mobility impaired, there is a 0.1-mile path to the Rock Garden. Anglers can enjoy casting for bass, sunfish, and catfish either by boat or wading on the park’s small lake. Canoe and rowboat rentals are available for paddling on the lake, or you can bring your own gear for paddling or fishing on the Dan River. Rock climbing is permitted on the 400-foot-high Cook’s Wall and Moore’s Wall. For just kicking it under the trees, the park has several picnic areas, as well as an exhibit hall and concession stand.

We went late April on a weekend. The place was pretty packed. I think many people from Raleigh and Winston Salem come here because it's so close. We stayed until Monday, most of the people left on Sunday and Monday it was fairly empty. The park has 5 waterfalls I believe. Some are shorter hikes but almost all the hikes involve a steep hill climb of stairs. We got our workout in seeing all the sites. The bathhouses seemed kind of dated, the showers were very small with even smaller doors that didn't leave much to the imagination. You could see everything from chest up and knees down. They gave you hooked to hang your things outside the door but that would involve being naked in front of everyone to retrieve your things. We had a camper so I used my own shower. Most of the sites are small and very close together. They do control burns often so there isn't any bushes giving you privacy. I'd suggest going during the week when there is less people. We stayed in site 11 because it was one of the few long enough for our 25ft camper. No hook ups or dump stations.
RangerI stayed by myself and felt very safe in the beautiful, wooded campgrounds. Everything was very well taken care of and my camp spot was good as well when I did my spot check before and after leaving. The park has so many perks- waterfalls, hanging rock views, what seems like endless trails for hiking, and really nice cool weather when I go to the mountains.
ScoutSo much to do. Hike, swim, mountain bike, and fish.
Guide
This place is relatively small, but surrounds a small lake. Sites are close together, but everyone is respectful. Bathrooms leave something to be desired, and there is no family bathroom, but otherwise decent and the water is hot. With a little work this place could be great.
Traveler
I am staying here for two weeks because I have a membership and because I am WFM and it enables me to travel.
I heard mixed reviews about this campground but since I had a 1000 Trails membership, I figured it was worth checking out.
It was a beautiful drive from Virginia and though we arrived in early evening, the Rangers were very nice and helped us get checked in.
The sight was a little uneven and took a bit to level but it is surrounded by trees and very quiet. Most of the yẹar round resident had some kind of Halloween decoration up so the park looked great. They even had a little haunted house set up for the kids.
All in all, this is a very pleasant campground and makes the membership worth it. It's quiet, it's pretty, and you are right between Lexington and Winston Salem. I'm looking forward to coming back over Christmas.

This was our 3rd time staying here. This park has a wonderful creek running through the middle of it and most short-term sites back up to it. There are also a couple of camping cabins and some tent sites. The campground road is sort of narrow and the sites can be a little tight, making it awkward to back in if you have a large TV and full-size camper - but once you’re in it’s all good. The creek and nice natural landscaping of the park are very worth it. The owners have done a fantastic job over the years with this piece of property, keeping that mountain forest feeling and just tweaking nature a little. No pool and no playground, but there are spots to get into the creek. Good clean bathhouse with newer washers/dryers and a covered porch where you can hang out waiting for your laundry (or just hang out, period). A good contingent of spots that are booked for the season and plenty of weekend campers like us. It’s a good balance. No full-timers, as the park is closed during the winter. The campground is conveniently located between Sylva and Waynesville and very close to the Blue Ridge Parkway. 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, and we had no issues using our TMobile hotspot to stream videos/tv. They do have wifi at the camp office but we didn’t need to use it.
TravelerWe spent 4 nights here nice campsite but close together. Good power, water and nice and quite
GuideWe spent the month of October watching the leaves change. The owners were so nice and helpful. We camped with our patio hanging out over the creek. It was fantastic. We loved it so much that we are going back next summer for three months. This is a wonderful place, above 3000 ft convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville, Waynesville, Cherokee Casino.
GuideIt’s all pretty much primitive, but it is so beautiful. The streams are so clean so much hiking there’s a lake that you can go swimming there’s never anything not to do.

Ashley with The Dyrt! We're happy to welcome your host, Melissa to our platform. Miles of mountain bike trails within 30 minutes of the property. A great basecamp after a day of adventuring. Check them out and leave them some love.
ScoutCampground was clean with large camp sites. Quiet at night. Family friendly. Nice restroom and shower facilities. Close proximity to canoeing, kayaking, and great hiking trails.
Guide
The park is so beautiful. The sites are a little rough but easy to level your rig. The park has great trails around it, they can be pretty challenging when it comes to elevation gain. The lake is wonderful. They were updating cabins when we were there last, they look great. The showers were clean and the bathroom was the same. The host was a nice gentleman. No Verizon service or WiFi. We go here to get away.
Scout
We stayed for BRRF nearby. The site was big and good for the short amount of time we spent in it. Down sides were the grill and picnic table were on opposite sides of the space and the closest bathrooms were locked for a couple days.
TravelerWas here 21 day had a great time
GuideThis was the prettiest, friendliest, most peaceful campground I've ever stayed. I cannot talk about it enough! Whether you're a tenter, an RVer, or a cabin dweller, this place is a no frills, but extremely comfortable place to stay. It is so quiet. Landscaping is beautiful, but still natural. Benches throughout even in the creek to put your feet in. The BEST and cleanest bathhouse I've ever seen. Roger. Trails dispersed throughout. Some RVers live there long term. Laundry room, small store for immediate camping needs, firewood.. just a lovely, darling gem!
ScoutLake view, clean in-ground pool, staff was nice and campground was family oriented and peaceful.
ScoutWe had a really relaxing stay here. There were storms during our stay and the staff was very responsive to campers that were affecting by winds and debris. The pool was clean and well balanced. The walking trail was nice but you will for sure want to take an extra large can of deep woods off or equivalent. There are swarms of large flys all around the water on the trail. The sites are fairly level and the hookups were all in good order and locations.
ScoutHas everything you need for camping including 2 pools.
ScoutIf you have low expectations of a RESORT, they won’t meet them. I was almost shocked that both pools would open on the Memorial Day weekend, almost. Adult, not allowed to have an adult pool I forgot, lower pool closed.
The hot tub is filled with concrete.
The E bathhouse was closed due to no Hot water.
The lake has so much grass in it (used to stock with Carp) it’s scary to paddle on.
The lake has no peers, docks, benches and just a fraction of the beach it used to have.
Thousand trails, not so much since they cut the trees down.
Oh, I forgot to mention, 80-ish camping spots where just added. That made for a very crowded…..everything.

Stopped here for one night on a road trip. Check in was quick and easy, staff was great, bathrooms were older but clean. Definitely highway noise but they provide complimentary earplugs if you need them.
ScoutThe Supreme Summer Camp 🏕 has a Junior Greene
ScoutWe camped at HRSP in March, and yes it got bloody cold. But, we had an awesome time. HRSP has fantastic trails to hike. The campground is really great. Be sure to look at the pad size when you book your stay. The bathhouse was OK. It gets a lot of use and some people live like pigs...so... Nevertheless, I'll camp there anytime. The sites fill up so plan early.
TravelerWe arrive at campground and entered without issues, however, there was no signs directing us to site numbers. We did find our reserved site but unlike many places we have been there wasn't any receipt or tags attached to pole. The site it's self was up hill which caused our car wheels to spin and made it difficult to park.
We also noted that our water and electricity was on the passenger side of our vehicle so it was a good thing we had an extra hose to reach the water as well as a long enough cord to reach the electric box. The park itself is nice and lake access is easy with several piers. I didn't visit the bathhouse so can't speak to it's condition but the rest of the park was clean.
RangerThe freeway noise is the biggest negative. The host was extremely nice and friendly, the gravel sites are wide enough but ours was way off from level. Nice dog area and small playground. They have a clean nice little store and a pool ( although it wasn’t open yet this year when we were there)
GuideWe pitched a tent at campsite #20, and the area was really well kept. Fairly private, very quiet, and opened up to a big forest area. It was low/mid 30's overnight so the kids were really cold and we ended up having to cut the trip short (warmed up nicely during the day, though).
I'm not sure if it was the season or another issue, but water spigots and restrooms on our loop were not functional. Working restrooms on the other loop were very nice and well-maintained, but a pretty good drive away. Dishwashing stations on both loops did not have taps so they were also non-functional… again, I'm not sure if it's a seasonal thing or if everything was just out of commission for whatever reason.
I think firewood was supposed to be available to purchase from the host site near self-check-in, but we didn't see any. Husband went out & eventually found some at what he called a "general store" with an honor box – not sure where exactly.
Hiked the Hanging Rock Trail and it was AWESOME! Easy/moderate hike to the big warning sign, then more strenuous going all the way up to the top of the cliff. The views were incredible and definitely worth it! Sore the next day 😆 There were a lot of people and dogs on the trail, it's a popular spot.
Our experience was honestly 4-star, but I know this is a great spot and deserves 5. Wish we could have stayed longer and seen more, but we'll have to go back when it's warmer. Great place with a lot to see and do that's close to home for us :)
TravelerWe reserved a 30amp site monies were paid even though it’s first come first serve on location. We arrive and get our envelope to go to our camp site and it was a 50 amp site. We saw 110 outlets and thought ok no biggie….. there was no power to this campsite at all. We call the ranger no answer (we had been told she was sick) we call the 800 number and get a number to a ranger in florida who says they’ll get the right person and have them come help…. 20 minutes later no person no call so I call again he says oh they gave you the wrong number I can’t help you…. Would have been nice if he had called back to let me know. So call the 800 number again and the lady tells me oh that’s no good, drive around and see if you can find another spot….this place was packed…. So it’s almost 8 at this time and she says oh I have to go it’s almost time for us to close and when I ask her what do I do about power…. She tells me it’s between me and the campground…. If I hadn’t of had a long extension cord that I could reach a tent site with we would have been in trouble the low was 30 for that night the next morning the ranger came by and this sweet lil 77 year old lady tried to help us move we told her we had drug an extension cord across could we just stay at the site at this point cause no one wants to move around like that while camping…. We went down to shower and the bathrooms were disgusting, toilets and the walls covered in feces, putt putt course appeared to be covered in sticks and tons of leaves…… this was just a terrible experience for us it was more like a white trash camp ground in the part we stayed at….. people with all kinds of junk outside of their permanent homes…. This was not anything like camping for us at all
GuideMy family and I have stayed here several times over the years and have always found this to be a hidden gem. Nice campground with great staff.
