GuideIndian Creek offers the most relaxing creekside camping in North Carolina.
Every campsite is lush with greenery, private and well maintained after each occupancy. The bathhouse is the cleanest I have found and the campsite store carries all of your forgotten necessities, and more!
My husband and I love coming back to this campground, because how of well we and our kids sleep! The sound of the creek at night melts all of your worries away and takes you off to peaceful slumber.
This campground is always in rotation for a visit.
GuideStonebridge RV Resort and Campground, Maggie Valley NC. This one gets 4 ⭐️ from me. The good: this is a clean, well kept campground right in Maggie Valley. It’s close to everything. It is well run and organized. The grounds are kept very neatly. The creek at the back is beautiful and a great place for kids to play and tube from one end of the campground to the other. There is a large play area at the end that has plenty of play equipment and room to run. A dog park for off-leash play, separated for big dogs and small dogs. The whole area is clean, doggie bags conveniently located for easy clean-up. The kids can play and enjoy themselves without parents worrying about them bothering other campers. There are tons of kids but they didn’t bother a thing.
The bad: the sites are extremely close together. Extremely close. The sites (Premium Creekside) along the creek have plenty of room behind your site to enjoy your site and the creek. The pull through sites, though, are so close the sewer hookup is literally right beside the next site’s picnic table. Within inches. Don’t pick those if you plan to cook and eat outside. There are some buddy sites that would be good if you come with other campers, but I would still pick the creek side sites.
The Ugly: just the pull through sites and the sewage dump inches from the next picnic table. That’s pretty gross.
Overall, I would return. It’s a quiet (enough) campground, clean and well kept. The people who work there are nice and helpful. I just wish the sites were a little wider. It’s much nicer than other area campgrounds.
ScoutGreat campground! Easy access to everything needed. Tent sites were a little small. But overall very friendly management. Close to Waynesville and all the cute places in Maggie Valley.
GuideThis campground is right off the Blue Ridge Parkway, close to Cherokee, and Maggie Valley. The sites are first come first service, which is great if you want to camp on a whim. No showers, but there are restrooms. This place is close to trails and there are plenty of waterfalls a short drive away. All sites have a tent pad, fire pit with grill, and picnic table. There is a larger picnic area next to the campground.
GuideA very clean commercial campground. Many RVers are semi-permanent in season and very friendly. Full RV services at site, 50 amp, sewer and water. Sits on a beautiful fishable river and is close to Maggie Valley and Waynesville. Very clean bathrooms and friendly helpful staff. Sites are close to others but not jammed together like others in area.
RangerGreat campground, fair amount of sites on creek, park like setting. Pull through sites for big rigs interior, full hookups include, cable, good wifi, good cell service. Great location to explore the quieter side of the smokies, Maggie Valley, Waynesville, Cherokee, Blue Ridge parkway, etc.
GuideA small campground with full hookups on the main drag in the middle of Maggie Valley. Has a store but everything is close. Stayed 4th of July. Great fireworks show could be seen from campground.
ScoutThe creek was beautiful and the restrooms were clean... but the sites were so small that our awning came out just to the edge of the site and the next camper slide was just inches away from the awning. Our slide on the other side reach to the edge of that side of the site. The owner told us there were no mosquitos because they were so high in the mountains..... I was bitten by no-see-ums over both legs and arms and so were the other campers. There was no internet, the TV sporadically worked with a few channels, and we had intermittent cell service with only 1 bar. We forfeited our deposits and a few days of rent to leave and go to Cross Creek in Maggie Valley. We are still there and it is lovely with everything that Moonshine Creek wasn't. Oh, and Moonshine Creek is the most expensive over other camp grounds in the area. Shame on you Moonshine Creek!!!
