    Moonshine Creek Campground

    Top Notch

    This is an excellent campground! It’s really woodsy and the creek is fabulous. Nice laundry facilities. Especially nice are the tent sites. They seem to have some of the most scenic spots. The Sanctuary area is awesome and the tent sites are right on the creek. It is for those with no pets or kids and is limited to 2 people per site. It’s a quiet zone. There is one tent cabin and 4 tent sites with water and electric. You CAN park at your sites. We weren’t sure before if it was a walk in area. The bathhouse for this area has two toilets and two showers.Each is completely private. There are outlets and sinks in all four. There is also a very nice sink and counter on the end for dishwashing. It’s all in excellent condition. Very nice picnic tables too. They were easy to wipe off. Sites S1-3 have an awning/ shelter. S4 does not but is much larger. S4 is higher up so you look down on the creek. It is more off by itself. S1 even has access to a 2nd picnic table close to the creek. It is the smallest as far as tent space. We would love to visit again!

    Moccasin Branch Campground — Raven Rock State Park

    Clandestine Campground @ Raven Rock State Park

    Clandestine?  And Camping?!  Yeah, that's kind of what I thought too when I first saw this place.  To begin with, hats off to the great state Rangers in North Carolina who take real pride in their campgrounds and take really great care of the parks.  This was, by far, one of the cleanest, most well-organized, perfectly sign-posted and utterly trash-free state parks I have ever been too (and let's say that I've been to a few).  

    In fact, this place was so incredibly well taken care of ... that I'm not sure I felt like I was actually in nature!  Is that even possible?  Well, let's just say that one of the biggest challenges I have with camping in the first place is convincing my family to come with me, as they aren't fans of bugs, getting dirty, sweating and especially .. public restrooms and shower facilities.  But they would be impressed with this place.

    Located just due South of Raleigh-Durham area, you'll find Raven Rock State Park, that doesn't get as much recognition as a lot of the other SP's have bodies of water attached to them, like in and around Jordan Lake, Falls Lake or further afield Lake Kerr.  That aside, and back to this particular campground, if you're looking for something that's a bit off the beaten path, but that offers a completely different camping experience, then I would strongly encourage you to come check out this place.  Amenities are standard, but as with everything here, it's either brand new or completely spartan!  Add on top of this that there's a number of really amazing guest cottages (think little log cabins, but modern), then this SP is definitely setting the pace for the rest of the state in terms of quality control on their campgrounds.

    Happy Camping!

    Cliffs of the Neuse State Park Campground

    State Park

    Very nice state park with rv and tent sites. They have electric and water hookups. There are picnic tables and fire rings at each site. Firewood is available from the ranger. There are showers and toilets also. Many hiking trails with cliff overlook of the Nuese River. There is a swimming area and Connor rental also.

    William B. Umstead State Park Campground

    Very small

    Avoid site 6! There’s so many tree roots, it’s an awful tripping hazard around a fire pit with kids! There are only three spaces out sites, 18,19,21. These sites are 10x10 designate for your tent, and picnic table and fire ring. Some are very very close together. The trails are good, the bathrooms are clean and maintained. Firewood can be purchased for $6/bundle. Be aware this is right next to the airport, you will hear planes all day and most all night landing and taking off.

    Moccasin Branch Campground — Raven Rock State Park

    New spacious campground

    This is a new and clean campground. Very nice rangers monitor the campground and are extremely helpful. Each site is large and well spaced out from other campers. Most RV sites are gravel with a fire pit, picnic table and a gravel tent pad beside it. The bathhouse was clean and well maintained. Their RV sites are full hookup which is great for a state park. Water pressure was excellent. Primitive tent sites and cabins were available. The campground is walking distance to Raven Rock trails and you get a free walk up pass to get in. We had a very good time and will definitely go back.

    Moonshine Creek Campground

    Peaceful!

    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.

    Cliffs of the Neuse State Park Campground

    Cliffs above the Neuse River is the biggest draw for campers here.

    I have camped in this state park several times, including with the Boy Scouts. Other than the park itself, I really enjoyed the camaraderie when our Scout troop and another Scout troop that was camping were playing“Capture the Flag.” I say all of this because it is a great place for group camping. However, it also has conventional camping and cabins. When I first started camping at Cliffs of the Neuse, it did not have more than a mile of trails. Now it has added some more trails. It also did not have showers or cabins in times past. This park has improved significantly over the years and now has showers that are frequently maintained. One of the things you have to be aware of is that this park is sandy, so when you are camping, you will probably want to put some kind of rug in front of your tent or RV to minimize the amount of sand that you track in. Don’t think choosing another site will move you away from the sand. It won’t. Another thing you have to be aware of is that in eastern North Carolina, fire ants can be a huge problem. Some of the trails are easy, but the Spanish Moss Trail is quite steep in some places. Also, the Galax trail is almost always flooded during the spring or after a series of rains. There is a lake for swimming and a large picnic shelter. On weekends, it is not unusual for there to be lots of people at the picnic shelters, so you will have to reserve them. The sites have picnic tables and fire pits as well. This is a great park for swimming and boating, but the hiking is limited. If I am not mistaken, the total length of trails is fewer three miles. However, the main attraction is the view over the Neuse River and the new visitor’s center. Even with limited trails, it is still a great park for relaxing.

    Crosswinds Campground — Jordan Lake State Recreation Area

    Awesome State Park

    This was our very first full-time RV park. We loved being in the park and it easily accommodated our 39ft. Class A. Back-in site but with plenty of room to do so. Each site has water and electric hook-up. Sewer however is a dump station. The sites are big with a picnic table, fire pit and lantern hook. Plenty to do here with the lake at your fingertips. Great first experience.

    B.W. Wells — Falls Lake State Recreation Area

    Great camping options. $30/night

    Starting at $30/night for a camping lot. I came here with a 25 foot shuttle bus. There are people here with deluxe buses, car+tent campers and everything in between. I reserved it through their website. They offer a small discount for senior citizens and military. Bathroom facilities with hot showers located near every loop. Swimming areas at certain places around the lake. Kayaking and boat access also. Great restaurants and gas stations near by. Biking and hiking options. Fire pits and picnic tables. Firewood is $5/bundle. I'd definitely stay here again. Cozy camping spot.

Guide to Erwin

Cabin camping near Erwin, North Carolina offers options within the Piedmont region's gentle, rolling terrain with elevations averaging 300-400 feet. Winter temperatures typically range from 30-50°F while summer months can reach into the 90s with moderate humidity. Sites are generally situated among pine and hardwood forests with some properties offering direct access to local waterways.

What to do

Hiking trails: Raven Rock State Park offers multiple hiking trails around the Cape Fear River. "We hiked in from the parking lot to one of the canoe in sites on the river. I loved all the trails, mainly the one that goes from the campsite I was on to the river where there is natural waterslide," notes one camper at Moccasin Branch Campground.

Fishing opportunities: Multiple locations provide fishing access without extensive travel. At Smith Lake Army RV Park, visitors can enjoy "hiking trails and fishing as well - with respective fishing license." The park offers easy access to fishing areas directly from the campground.

Water recreation: Several cabin sites are located near lakes and rivers. "Saturday morning they had a Waffle breakfast. Two large fenced dog parks, one located at each end of the campground. Two fishing ponds and dirt walking trail though the woods and around ponds," reports a visitor to Fayetteville RV Resort & Cottages.

What campers like

Privacy between sites: Cabin campers appreciate well-spaced accommodations that offer privacy. At Canoe Camp, guests mention "The sites are clean and well spread out with a hook to hang things on, a fire pit, and a picnic table at each site. The pit toilet is central to all 6 sites."

Clean facilities: Consistent maintenance of shared spaces receives frequent positive reviews. One camper at Crosswinds Campground described their experience: "Great Campsites, nice wooded sites and close to lake access. Great hiking trails and very family friendly. Deer walked right behind our site."

Year-round availability: Several properties remain open throughout winter months. At Fayetteville RV Resort & Cottages, one visitor noted they "came here the day we sold our house in Fayettville. Covit19 had just hit so the campground we had reserved fell through and couldn't get tenants to leave because they were scared. We were in for a surprise, Fayetteville RV resorts welcomed us with open arms."

What you should know

Site accessibility: Some cabins require hiking to reach while others offer drive-up access. At Canoe Camp, visitors should prepare for a trek: "It was a pretty nice camp. They have a fire pit with grill and a place to hang and dry out stuff. The entrance was pretty steep coming off the river."

Reservation requirements: Most cabin sites require advance booking, particularly during peak seasons. Campgrounds like William B. Umstead State Park operate seasonally, "from March 15 to December 1" according to their listing.

Noise considerations: Properties closer to highways or military installations experience ambient noise. At RVacation Campground, visitors report: "All night long we were able to hear the highway (i-95) and trains passing by. My husband is an extremely light sleeper so it was much worse for him."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several cabin locations include play areas for children. According to one visitor at Smith Lake Army RV Park, the "playgrounds were phenomenal for kids. Bike and Hiking trails all throughout the site."

Swimming options: Multiple cabin locations feature swimming areas appropriate for children. "We enjoyed this campsite. It was clean, quiet and very close to the boat ramp! We had a great time and will definitely be back," reports a visitor to Crosswinds Campground.

Bathroom proximity: For cabins without private facilities, consider the distance to communal bathhouses. A visitor to Canoe Camp noted that "The pit toilet is central to all 6 sites. It's a pit toilet so it's nothing glamorous but it's there if you need it."

Tips from RVers

Site leveling: Most dedicated cabin areas feature leveled sites, but primitive cabins may require adjustment. At RVacation Campground, RVers report: "Level spots. Pretty lake to look over. Easy on and off the highway and easy access to shopping and RV store."

Power options: Confirm electrical capacity when booking as it varies between properties. At Smith Lake Army RV Park, visitors note "Concrete pads are level and sites are spacious with a picnic table and fire pit. Close to Ft. Bragg entrance, Exchange, and Commissary."

Extended stay opportunities: Some locations offer favorable rates for longer cabin rentals. At Fayetteville RV Resort & Cottages, one visitor mentioned "$600 a month is more than reasonable for the area. The staff is super and they keep the camp ground top notch."
