Best Cabin Camping near Pinebluff, NC

Several state parks and private campgrounds near Pinebluff, North Carolina provide rustic cabins with varying amenities. Moccasin Branch Campground at Raven Rock State Park features modern log cabins with fire pits and new picnic tables. According to John V., these cabins are "excellent" with "beautifully designed" spacing throughout the campground. Cheraw State Park, located about 45 minutes south, offers lakefront cabin rentals with electricity and water hookups. Sycamore Lodge and Pine Lake RV Resort both provide furnished cabins with full utilities including electric hookups, running water, and access to clean shower facilities. Most cabins include basic furniture, beds, and climate control systems, though specific amenities vary by location.

Pet-friendly cabins can be found at multiple locations, with Smith Lake Army RV Park (restricted to military personnel) and Norwood Campground both allowing pets in their cabin accommodations. Cabin sizes range from small one-room structures to larger family units with separate bedrooms. Reservations are essential during summer months when occupancy rates peak, particularly at state parks where cabins often book months in advance. Most private campgrounds operate year-round, while some state park cabins close during winter. A camper at Raven Rock noted that the cabins are "spaced out" and provide good privacy compared to other camping options in the region.

Most cabin rentals provide beds with mattresses but require guests to bring their own linens, pillows, and towels. Kitchen facilities vary widely, from basic fire pits with cooking grates to cabins with refrigerators and microwaves. Cooking utensils, pots, and pans are rarely provided, so visitors should pack these essentials. Moonshine Creek Campground offers cabin rentals with access to a "very nice sink and counter for dishwashing" according to one reviewer. On-site camp stores at Sycamore Lodge and Pedro's Campground at South of the Border stock basic food supplies, firewood, and camping necessities. For more extensive grocery shopping, the towns of Aberdeen and Southern Pines are within 15-20 minutes of Pinebluff with full-service supermarkets.

    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!

    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.

    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!

    Pedro's Campground at South of the Border

    Roadside RV Amusement Park

    If you haven’t been to a roadside circus lately or don’t want to shell out the dough for Disney World, then this particular RV amusement park location just off of I-95 and due south of the North Carolina/ South Carolina border may just be the perfect spot for you. 

    With a wide-array of parallel, elongated parking lanes for your parking pleasure, all of the sites come equipped with the typical 30/ 50 amp electrical hook-ups, waste disposal and water connections. There’s the standard picnic table, fire ring/BBQ, garbage receptacles, 3-4 communal bathhouses and even a handful of community BBQ’s. 

    The hosts, who work out of the Camp Pedro Store/ Office are incredibly nice and offer pricing by the night or week. There’s not a ton of amenities to pick and choose from– APART FROM THE NON-STOP LINEUP OF AMUSEMENT PARK options you will find everywhere! But the campground itself features 2-3 community playgrounds, group BBQ’s and the everything-you-need store. And while I looked, there’s no pool to speak of. 

    Insider’s Tip? Near this RV parking lot, you do have access to Betsy Jackson Bay if you want to get away and off the beaten path a bit to explore nature… otherwise, head back to Pedro’s, put on your silly hat, load up the car full of tchotchkies and get your fill of this whacky Tex Mex experience! 

    Happy Camping!

    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.

    Morrow Mountain State Park Campground

    Good

    So, if you end up in a crap site you might drop those 4 stars to 3. Its going to be impossible to determine a great site from a bad without going there since the only pic they have online is from site 1. B loop, has a lot of RVs. A loop, has the amphitheater. C loop, felt like the smallest loop and really close to the entry hiking trail. We've stayed in both A and C. C loop, site 48, is where we stayed this trip. Its a good site. Close to the showers, which are clean and well maintained. Close to the trash bins and water spicket as well. Behind the site is a great little "valley" to explore if you have kids/dogs. Has awesome trees for hammocks and the tent pad doesnt slope. Did not love the fire pit at this site but the sites to the left and right are great. Overall, tons of sites and good clean facilities. The trails are plentiful so you shouldnt run out of places to explore.

    Cheraw State Park Campground — Cheraw State Park

    VERY Nice campground!!

    The camping spots were clean and well kept....some have water and electric hookups and some are more rustic. There are plenty of large spaces for RVs with lots of room around them for privacy. It felt very private even though there were people all around. The bathrooms and showers were amazingly clean and they had a giant heater you can turn on over the showers when it's cold outside! There is a lake with a swimming area that was also well-maintained and clean, it has a boardwalk that goes around a large portion of the lake that connects the campground with the beach are. You can rent kayaks and canoes to take out on the lake, and the fishing is excellent! They also have rental cabins by the swimming area but I've never stayed in one. It is a nice campground, quiet and great for children! I will definitely go back!

    Smith Lake Army RV Park

    Recreation Heaven

    Lots of recreational activities with lake access. Staff was very friendly. Concrete pads are level and sites are spacious with a picnic table and fire pit. Close to Ft. Bragg entrance, Exchange, and Commissary. This campground is near a military runway so be prepared for loud aircraft noise as well as other military installation noise.


Guide to Pinebluff

Cabins near Pinebluff, North Carolina range from rustic to modern, with many situated at elevations between 300-500 feet above sea level. The region experiences distinct seasons with summer temperatures averaging 85-90°F and winter lows reaching the mid-30s. Cabin camping options span across both North and South Carolina borders, with accommodations varying from primitive one-room structures to multi-bedroom units with full amenities.

What to do

Fishing at nearby lakes: Lake Tillery provides accessible fishing spots from Norwood Campground. "We have a fishing pond, a very nice kids playground. A short hike and you are on Lake Tilery," notes reviewer Harold J. The campground offers easy lake access within a 2-minute walk.

Hiking trail exploration: The trail system at Morrow Mountain State Park Campground offers varied terrain for all skill levels. "We exhausted ourselves hiking and canoeing and much more stuff to do," reports Sara C. The Big Rocks Trail culminates at impressive cliffs with views of the surrounding landscape.

Water recreation options: Rentals for water activities are available seasonally at multiple locations. "The campground has a variety of boats and kayaks that you can use on the pond," according to Shahaliegh B. at Pine Lake RV Resort. Several cabin rental properties provide direct water access, with kayak and canoe rentals starting at $10-15 per hour.

What campers like

Clean bathroom facilities: Many campgrounds have invested in updated bathroom facilities. At Moonshine Creek Campground, campers appreciate the "best and cleanest bathhouse I've ever seen," according to Becqui M. Each private bathroom includes "outlets and sinks in all four. There is also a very nice sink and counter on the end for dishwashing."

Year-round accessibility: Most cabin rentals in the region remain open throughout the year. According to John at Cheraw State Park, cabins cost "under $100" for four nights during off-season periods. Winter visitors note lower occupancy rates and more privacy between December and February.

Natural surroundings: The wooded settings provide natural privacy between sites. At Sycamore Lodge, campers enjoy "grounds that are very neat and well kept" with a "nice lake with walking trail," according to Todd C. Many cabin sites feature mature tree coverage that maintains cooler temperatures during summer months.

What you should know

Military-only options: Smith Lake Army RV Park offers some of the best-rated cabin facilities but requires military ID for access. "Great Stay for DOD associated members," notes E G., who mentions that the facilities were "new right on the Smith Lake Beach." Military discounts average 15-20% off standard rates.

Seasonal availability challenges: Summer reservations should be made 2-3 months in advance, particularly for lakefront cabins. One camper mentions, "It felt very private even though there were people all around," at Cheraw State Park, but notes this changes during peak seasons.

Variable internet connectivity: Cell service varies significantly between properties. Ruth P. reports "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."

Tips for camping with families

Playground availability: Multiple cabin rental properties include dedicated children's areas. "They have a nice size pool. The only down side is it can be hard to get larger trailers in and out of the park," notes Shahaliegh B. about Pine Lake RV Resort.

Proximity to amenities: Cheraw State Park Campground offers family-friendly facilities adjacent to cabin rentals. "Nice boardwalk and nature trails nearby, with rental gear available," states John, while another reviewer notes the "cute little beach area with kayak and canoe rentals."

Safety considerations: Fenced campgrounds provide additional security for families with young children. Several properties feature security lighting and camp hosts who perform regular checks. One reviewer mentioned that at Morrow Mountain, "The camp host was very helpful and checked on everybody, every day."

Tips from RVers

Site dimensions and access: RVers should confirm cabin parking arrangements before booking. "Sites are large and easy to back into," notes Tony C. about Sycamore Lodge, which features "dual hookups for sewer connections" and "nice water pressure."

Seasonal considerations: Winter visitors report fewer crowds but limited amenities. According to Sara M., "When it isn't off season they have cheap boat rentals. Firewood is $6.50 per bundle." Several cabins offer fully insulated structures with heat pumps for year-round comfort.

Food storage options: Most cabin kitchens require supplemental coolers or storage containers. Cabins typically provide limited refrigeration, with some offering small apartment-sized refrigerators. The store at Pedro's Campground stocks basic supplies, though Aberdeen and Southern Pines offer full grocery options within a 20-minute drive.
