Bathrooms are generally located in nearby bathhouses rather than inside the cabins, with exceptions at higher-end properties.

    Deep River Campground And RV Park

    Clean,affordable, and friendly staff

    Took a weekend trip to Deep River Campground in Asheboro, NC. Very well kept, level spots, pet friendly, big rig friendly with pull through and back-in sites available. Full hook-ups (50 & 30 amp). Fire pit and picnic tables at each site. About $40 a night, no deposit required. With weekly and monthly rates as well. 2 pools (currently closed due to covid), game room, store, and private pond. Located minutes away from multiple trail heads. We were on lot 20, which is a double space designed for a larger rig, very private with lots of shade.

    Statesville RV Park I-77

    Right off of Interstate

    This KOA is RIGHT off of the interstate. If you are in midtravel and need a place to overnight this is a nice KOA for that. The camping cabins are cozy, we stayed in a single which has 1 dbl bed and twin sized bunk bed. Staff was very friendly. I wouldn't consider this a camping destination.

    Stone Mountain State Park Campground

    One night only

    We stayed for one night only on our way to Dreher Island SP. We didn't get in until after 4 pm, but there was still enough daylight to see how pretty the campground was. We had site 60 for the night. We tow a 19' a-frame camper with a Toyota Tacoma and had lots of room on the pad. The pad was pretty level so set up was easy. The site also had a huge area for the picnic table and the fire ring is far away from your camper. There was a huge grassy area behind our site with a creek, lots of space for our dog. We were in campground B (electric) and the sites were decent. There wasn't a lot shade for us, but up in the tent area they were surrounded by trees and it looked like they all had tent pads, some better than others. The shower house was nice, clean, flush toilets, and good showers. By the shower house they also had an outside sink to wash your dishes. We didn't get to hike, but everyone said we should if we ever go back. It's on our list to visit again.

    Fancy Gap-Blue Ridge Parkway KOA

    Camping in Quiet

    This is our second time here. It's pretty quiet here. There is a heated pool (closed), corn hole, playground, and multiple games. We noticed there's no kids during this time of the year. The KOA station has some cute gifts. 24 hrs. Restrooms, laundry area, and great outdoor. The cabins have there very own toilet, tv, full size bed, and bunk beds. Very nice KOA.

    Easy stop

    On the blue ridge parkway. We stayed in one of the cabins, it was clean with fresh linens, a fridge, and microwave. Comfortable relaxing porch chairs to watch the sunset over the mountains. The owners are super friendly and helpful.

    Lake Norman State Park Campground

    Fantastic quiet get away

    We stayed in the new glamping cabin #2. Very clean, comfortable bed, nice AC, lovely porch to relax on. All cabins are in walking distance to the bathrooms and showers. Those as well were pretty clean for a camp ground, I was pleasantly surprised. The path to the bathrooms light up at night so you can find your way very easy in the dark. Camp ground itself was very clean and I often saw the staff working on cleaning it and interacting with the campers. The designated swimming area was like a piece of heaven. Small not to overly packed, very clean beach. We plan on coming pack to do tent camping with our dog, fantastic family or romantic couple retreat.

    Hanging Rock State Park Campground

    Beautiful Waterfalls!

    Another great getaway from the suburb hustle and bustle of Greensboro. Only a short 45 minute drive will get you to this spot for a quick day trip or a few nights. Super pet friendly and well maintained campground. The campground bathrooms/facilities close in December and re-opens mid March. There are pit toilets available during the off-season. Amenities include picnic tables, grills and tent pads. There are showers, flush toilets and large utility sinks for dish washing and other non-hygiene related tasks.

    The hiking here is top-notch especially in the fall as the leaves turn all sorts of amazing colors. There are several waterfalls with nice swimming pools (for you or your pups). Take a few days to explore this spot!

    Fancy Gap Cabins and Campground

    Fantastic Campground

    Fancy Gap CC is a great small campground with a rustic hotel, cabins, tent camping, and RV/Trailer hook ups. I've stayed here before tent camping, which was nice. This time I was caught in traffic and they had a cabin available, better than pitching a tent in the dark and rain. The cabins are sturdy, very clean, pet friendly, and complete with a refrigerator/microwave and coffee maker. The bath house is relatively new and kept very clean. The whole campground is tidy. You can tell tell the owners love the place. If Fancy Gap is relatively close to your travel plans, I highly suggest you visit for yourself.

Guide to Clemmons

Cabin rentals near Clemmons, North Carolina provide comfortable lodging options within 30-45 minutes of town. Located in the Piedmont region at approximately 850 feet elevation, this area experiences mild winters and warm summers, with fall colors typically peaking in late October. Most cabin accommodations require booking 2-3 months in advance during peak seasons.

What to do

Mountain biking trails: Lake Norman State Park Campground offers 30+ miles of mountain biking paths with varying difficulty levels. "This campground has a lot to offer. Hiking, swimming, fishing at it's Carolina best. Outdoorsies will not be sorry if they visit Lake Norman State Park," notes one visitor, highlighting the diverse activities available.

Fishing opportunities: Dan Nicholas Park provides family-friendly fishing spots with catch-and-release options. A camper shares, "We really enjoyed fishing and caught a couple of fish as well. The sites are pretty roomy too! We definitely will be going back again."

Historical exploration: Stone Mountain State Park Campground features a 19th-century homestead at the base of the mountain. "Homestead was so neat to walk around at the base of the mountain," reports one reviewer who appreciated this historical aspect of their visit.

Wildlife viewing: Multiple campgrounds offer deer spotting opportunities, especially at dusk. "Whitetail deer mosey past your site and linger during the evening…ample squirrel and robins, woodpeckers and cardinals compete for air time," notes a visitor to Hanging Rock State Park Campground.

What campers like

Privacy between sites: Many campers appreciate when cabins offer adequate separation. At Midway Campground Resort, guests enjoy "a view of the lake, and enjoyed a great campfire on our little porch they provided." The outdoor space enhances the camping experience.

Family-friendly amenities: Larger campgrounds near Clemmons feature multiple recreation options. One visitor to Midway Campground Resort notes, "There is a pond for fishing, a nice pool, a jump pad, playground, arcade, and mini-golf. Plenty for kids to do."

Seasonal activities: Halloween events draw crowds at certain campgrounds. "The best feature is a haunted trail at Halloween (this gets very busy so be aware if you plan to camp around this time of year)," advises a Midway Campground Resort visitor.

On-site farm animals: Some properties offer unique animal interactions. At Carolina Rose (formerly Cobble Hill RV Campground), "The best part was getting fresh eggs from the check-in store each morning... And I mean... Fresh Eggs. Really cool place."

What you should know

Seasonal closures: Bathroom facilities at some parks close during winter months. A Hanging Rock visitor notes, "Slightly wished the bathhouses had been open" during a January stay, so plan accordingly for off-season trips.

Reservation timing: During summer and fall color season, cabins book quickly. Salem Breeze RV Park typically requires "advanced reservations, particularly during summer months."

Site sizes vary significantly: Some cabin and RV sites have space limitations. A Forest Lake visitor advises, "Our cabin site was right next to the lake/pond. We also rented a canoe and had fun canoeing around the pond/lake."

Cell service limitations: Many parks have minimal connectivity. One camper mentions, "No electric and sketchy cell service (at best)…of which the payphone at the information board reminds you. Make the hike up to Moore's Knob and you'll find decent cell phone reception, if need be."

Tips for camping with families

Age-appropriate trails: Select hikes suited to your children's abilities. At Stone Mountain State Park Campground, trails vary widely: "Stone loop mountain trail is incredible! Long and strenuous but all ages were hiking it."

Pack extra clothes: Temperature fluctuations can be significant. "We went in December and there wasn't many people there at all, maybe 4 other campers all weekend," notes a visitor, highlighting the quiet off-season experience.

Pet policies differ: Not all cabin accommodations allow pets or may charge extra fees. Check in advance as policies change seasonally.

Playground proximity: Choose sites near play areas if traveling with children. "The kids take their bikes, but even without them, they stay plenty busy. The lake offers fishing, paddle boating and feeding the ducks and it's only a short walk from any campsite," shares a Dan Nicholas Park visitor.

Tips from RVers

Water access points: Many RV sites require bringing extra water hose length. "Water spigots dot the campground loop roadway every few sites, so it is a short walk to fill up."

Leveling challenges: Some sites require significant adjustment. A visitor to Carolina Rose (formerly Cobble Hill) warns about site 59: "SUPER unlevel. Cute pond and amphitheater too! Has laundry as well."

Seasonal pest considerations: Insects can be problematic during warmer months. "The bathhouses are in very poor shape. There appears to be suspect, microbial growth all over the men's side (black mold)," warns one camper about maintaining cleanliness.

Off-season discounts: Winter camping offers significant savings at most parks, with rates typically $5-10 lower per night from November through February.
