      Deep River Campground And RV Park

      Stopped 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 .

      Deep River Campground And RV Park

      New Owners, making lots of noticeable changes for your enjoyable stay

      Looking 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

      Crosswinds Campground — Jordan Lake State Recreation Area

      Quiet, clean, spacious

      The 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.

      Crosswinds Campground — Jordan Lake State Recreation Area

      Great Camp

      We 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.

      Indian Heritage RV Park

      Friendly staff

      The campground is very well kept. Super friendly staff and in a good location.

      Mayo Lake Park

      Nice Place

      This is a nice place to paddle board. They also have a really cool disk golf course that we just hiked. The staff are super friendly. Classic NC country folk. The restrooms have been redone and now there is a bank of individual shower/rest rooms. The only drawback is it's kind of a long uphill walk from the campsites on a gravel road.

      Crosswinds Campground — Jordan Lake State Recreation Area

      Crosswinds Campground July 2026

      Decent 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.

      Rolling View — Falls Lake State Recreation Area

      Great tent camping sites

      First time to Loop C and we loved it. There are some great sites here, they are big and most are decently spaced. It rained heavily while there, some sites will hold water, but I didn’t see any fully submerged. There’s no electrical hook ups, there are a few potable water spickets throughout the loop. The bathroom was very clean.

      Indian Heritage RV Park

      Perfect Everything!

      It’s not too often you get amazing hospitality anywhere these days, BUT THIS PLACE HAS IT! From the phone call to the arrival, the Indian Heritage RV Park is impressive. The park has level gravel sites, both pull-thru’s and back-ins, and they vary from fully- to partially-shaded to full sun. Solid-connecting WiFi is available with speeds to easily watch a movie. There’s even a trash can at each site. But wait, there’s more. If you’ve been on the road way too long and crave personal bathroom space, check out their bathhouse—individual rooms make it feel like you’re at a resort…plenty of space and super clean and inviting! The laundry room offers two washers, dryers, folding tables, and a hanging rack (bring your own hangers); again, super clean. This park is located on the Smith River and I highly recommend getting a lakeside spot if one’s available…spectacular view if you have a back porch on your rig! Jody was our host and makes you feel like you’re part of the family. The owner (sorry I forgot his name) is also very friendly. Restaurants are a few blocks down the street but you wouldn’t know it unless you took a short walk…that’s how tucked away this place is. Definitely staying here again the next time I travel Hwy 58!

    Guide to Burlington

    Cabin camping near Burlington, North Carolina offers varied accommodations across forested settings within an hour's drive. The region sits in the central Piedmont area at approximately 600-700 feet elevation, with moderate seasonal temperatures that make cabin camping viable nearly year-round. Several campgrounds maintain year-round operations while others have limited seasonal availability from spring to late fall.

    What to do

    Hiking trail access: At Hanging Rock State Park Campground, multiple trail systems offer different difficulty levels. "There are lots of trails to explore, but they are not just trails to nowhere. There are five waterfalls to see, a climbing access area, Cook's Wall, and much more," explains one visitor who recommends planning a minimum three-night stay to experience the park fully.

    Boating and fishing: Crosswinds Campground provides direct water access for small watercraft. "Some of the sites offer a tie-off of your boat adjacent to your campsite," notes a camper, with another mentioning that the campground is "very close to the boat ramp" making it convenient for those bringing boats.

    Swimming opportunities: Many cabin sites offer summer swimming options. Rolling View at Falls Lake features "a nice sand beach on the lake" according to visitors. One camper noted, "The lake is beautiful and great for kids," recommending it for families seeking water activities near their cabin lodging.

    What campers like

    Privacy between sites: Cabin spacing varies significantly between locations. At Moonshine Creek Campground, "The campground road is sort of narrow and the sites can be a little tight... but once you're in it's all good. The creek and nice natural landscaping of the park are very worth it," notes one visitor who appreciated the natural setting despite closer quarters.

    Clean facilities: Many cabins provide access to well-maintained bathhouses. "Very clean bathrooms. Spacious sites. Plenty of privacy," reports a visitor to Crosswinds Campground. Another camper described Moonshine Creek's facilities as "The BEST and cleanest bathhouse I've ever seen," highlighting the importance of facility maintenance.

    Natural settings: Several locations maintain wooded surroundings that provide shade and atmosphere. One camper at Rolling View — Falls Lake noted, "Love sitting by the campfire and staring up through the trees at the moon and stars," describing the natural experience that many seek when choosing cabin camping over hotels.

    What you should know

    Seasonal operation: Several parks have limited operating seasons. William B. Umstead State Park operates from March 15 to December 1, requiring advance planning. Similarly, Crosswinds Campground at Jordan Lake is available from January 1 to October 2.

    Reservation requirements: Greensboro KOA and most other cabin providers require advance bookings. One visitor noted, "Was greeted immediately, given a nice bag of goodies and taken to our site within minutes," describing the check-in process when reservations are properly made.

    Highway noise considerations: Some locations experience traffic noise due to proximity to major roads. A Greensboro KOA visitor remarked, "This campground is only 100 yards from the Interstate! Lots of road noise all night," suggesting light sleepers may want to bring earplugs.

    Tips for camping with families

    Kid-friendly swimming: Several cabin locations offer swimming areas appropriate for children. "There is a nice sand beach on the lake and a boat launch as well," reports a camper about Jordan Lake, where the beach area provides safe access for younger swimmers.

    Wildlife viewing opportunities: Hyco Lake State Park Campground offers chances to spot local wildlife. The cabins provide a comfortable base for nature exploration, with one visitor commenting on the "GORGEOUS location, many sites with water views and directly on the water" that allow for wildlife observation from the comfort of cabin porches.

    Playground access: Several campgrounds maintain play areas for children. One camper at Greensboro KOA mentioned, "The children will love the caboose/play area, and there is a large pool, which was actually open," highlighting amenities that keep younger family members entertained.

    Tips from RVers

    Leveling challenges: At several locations, terrain can present leveling issues for large rigs. A visitor to Deep River Campground noted, "When we showed up, Scott met us at the office and he took us to the 'most level site' he had available," indicating that even with staff assistance, site selection for level placement can be challenging.

    Utility hookup placement: Position of water and electric connections varies by site. One camper at Hyco Lake noted, "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," suggesting campers should bring extension cords and longer hoses.

    Road access considerations: Several campgrounds have narrow access roads that can complicate arrival with larger units. A Moonshine Creek visitor commented, "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," suggesting those with bigger rigs should call ahead about access.
