ScoutI have going to this site BEFORE it was a state park. They developed it has a tent camping and put in two outhouses (pit toilets). It was easy to go camp without reservations anytime. The they installed the nice bathrooms and two RV sites. Good Luck making a reservation. It stays booked. The campground has a creek running beside it. It is stocked with trout a few times each year. You MUST have all of your NC Licenses. Be sure to pay attention to what season it is and what bait you can use. Hiking is great. Beautiful waterfall. NO PHONE reception. My wife loves it. There are 16 tent sites with no power and two RV sites with power. We love it.
ScoutI showed up after hours on a motorcycle looking for an overnight tent site. They didn't have tent sites available in the after hours check in. Luckily, John, who works maintenance, was near by. He opened up the office, checked me into a tent site and figured out how to give me a military discount even though that is not his job. John saved my night! The tent site was clean, level, grass and water and electric worked great. There was some noise from the interstate but expected in a tent. Restroom and shower facilities were clean and functional. My only staff interaction was with John and he was outstanding in customer service and going over the top to take care of getting me set up. Thank you!
Travelerwe tent camped here before and it was lovely.
TravelerStayed 1 night at a tent site. Had a hot shower and facilities were nice. Each site has a ring for fire/grill/ picnic table.
Only has 3 tent sites. I don' think tent campers can stay at the others. I didn't see the tent pad that they had at my site and just pitched the tent on the ground.
FYI you have to call up to make reservations. I arrived late and they gave me the code to the bathrooms over the phone and the wifi password.
you could hear road noise at night but didn't bother me.
TravelerFriendly host, close to lake and well shaded, clean bathrooms, large enough tent sites, great for families.
ScoutBeautiful nature preserve with large 50+ site campground. Tent sites around $28. Within 6 miles of stores and amenities. Helpful camp hosts know which sites may be best for certain equipment.
ScoutIt's a very nice campground with very friendly people and nice trails around. The only issue which wasn't big for me due to tent camping, the sites looked washed out and very unlevel so depending on camper or RV might take some work getting level!
TravelerI carefully scouted online and got a great site for our tent camping (wouldn’t have been great for RVs) but there were definitely some awful sites to be had. Restrooms were clean and well stocked. Nicely stocked store. Living history farm was disappointing - not much to look at and not enough signs.
ScoutIt’s not a campground really. it has places for rv’s maybe a tent site. but it is basically by the interstate and just a place to stay. cabins are nice but again they are just beside the rv’s. no scenery at all. the employees are real nice also
