Best Campgrounds near High Point, NC

515 Reviews

Camping options around High Point, North Carolina include a mix of city parks, commercial campgrounds, and state parks within driving distance. Oak Hollow City Campground sits within the city limits with RV hookups and tent sites, while Greensboro KOA offers cabin rentals just 10 miles northeast. Hagan-Stone Park and Tanglewood Park provide additional developed camping within 20 miles of High Point. The region encompasses various accommodation types from primitive tent sites to full-service RV parks with sewer, water, and electric hookups.

Most campgrounds in the area remain open year-round, though Tanglewood Park operates seasonally from May through mid-November. Reservations are strongly recommended, particularly for weekend stays at popular locations like Hanging Rock and Pilot Mountain State Parks, which may fill months in advance. Many campsites around High Point feature relatively level pads and spacious layouts, though some areas like Oak Hollow have sections that resemble parking lots with tightly spaced RV sites. Cell coverage varies, with better reception at developed campgrounds near town and potentially spotty service in more remote areas. A camper noted, "Oak Hollow Campground is located in High Point NC. It is immediately off the highway and just a couple turns through neighborhoods and you arrive at the campground."

The camping experience varies significantly between urban and rural settings in the region. State parks like Hanging Rock and Pilot Mountain, located 30-45 miles north of High Point, receive consistently high ratings for their scenic views, hiking trails, and natural amenities. These parks feature more spacious, shaded sites with picnic tables and fire rings. Several visitors praised Hanging Rock for its "breathtaking views from the cliffs, miles of hiking trails, a lake, and 5 waterfalls." In contrast, closer options like Oak Hollow and Greensboro KOA offer convenience but with more highway noise and less privacy between sites. For those seeking more seclusion, Uwharrie National Forest lies approximately 45 miles south of High Point and provides both developed campgrounds and dispersed camping opportunities with access to trails, lakes, and rivers.

    Greensboro KOA

    Noisy- Ok for one night

    This campground is only 100 yards from the Interstate! Lots of road noise all night. Very noisy especially in a tent. The sites are large enough for most RVs. Adequate space between sites, and some grass. There are a few trees around the campground but not in the RV sites. Full hookups (30/50 amp) Pool, playground and camp store with basics. Shower and bathroom were clean.

    Cobble Hill RV Campground (Formerly) Carolina Rose

    good stop & stay

    campground being remodeled so bathhouses were a little walk away but not too inconvenient. pool was also closed for now BUT overall cute location. did park on site 59 (pull through) but was SUPER unlevel. cute pond and amphitheater too! has laundry as well.

    coolest part about this spot is that it’s about a 10 min drive into Catawba college town which was a super nice area for us being younger. perfect mix of Boulder & Philly :)

    hosts were SUPER friendly and nice :)

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park at Asheboro

    Great stay

    Campground has many things to do for the Littles. I would recommend renting the “off road” golf cart for fun. The only negative is the lack of bath houses. Although we have a full bathroom in our camper we typically use the showers at the campgrounds. There were only 2 bathhouses in the campground. Our site was well shaded and enough space between the sites.

    Tanglewood Park

    Shaded and clean

    No permanent sites so it's clean with no clutter, host greeted upon arrival, lots of access to hike/bike trails, near park with ponds, pool, ball courts. Several sites including mine very hard to level

    Brookhaven Mill Farm

    Quaint Site with Goats!

    I only needed to stay at this site for a few hours with my dog for dinner and a quick nap before heading on my way! The grass was a little overgrown which was just a little itchy but otherwise it was an amazing site, with a well maintained porta potty and cute animals on site!

    Black Dog Acres RV Park

    Clean, Easy, & Nice

    We stopped just for a night as we were traveling 74 south. It was just a little off the path (a few low trees on the route but nothing going slow and caulk won’t fix). Super easy pull through sites with convenient hookups. No bathrooms so did need to hook up water. Every body was super nice and friendly, 10/10 would stay again.

    Lake Reidsville Recreation Park

    A Hidden Gem in North Carolina

    Lake Reidsville Campground was a beautiful and peaceful escape from the daily hustle. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by serene water views, lush greenery, and the calming sounds of nature. The campground is well-maintained, and the lake itself is stunning — perfect for morning reflections or evening sunsets.

    The dock area was a favorite spot of mine — great for fishing, relaxing, or just soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. The photo I took captures how inviting and tranquil this place is. It’s clear the city takes pride in keeping the area clean and accessible.

    Whether you’re camping, kayaking, or simply looking for a quiet place to unwind, Lake Reidsville is absolutely worth a visit. I’m already planning to return.

    Arrowhead Campground

    Perfect spot

    Nicely spaced, shaded, and quiet camp ground. A lot of people camp here with their jeeps, sidexsides, and 4wheelers. The bathrooms and showers aren’t fancy but are clean. There’s a boat ramp right by the entrance. Overall an awesome camp ground!

    Dan Nicholas Park

    We will be back for sure

    Site next to one of the lake access trails. Spacious site. We were able to get our 37 ft camper level. Shaded so the a/c s were able to keep up with the heat no issue.
