23 campgrounds with availability next weekend
RV parks near Pinehurst provide varied levels of hookup options, with most offering 30/50-amp electrical connections and full water/sewer service. Buck Creek RV Park maintains 74 sites open from April through November, featuring level pull-through spaces with concrete pads for picnic tables and built-in fire pits. Mountain Stream RV Park accommodates both small and large motorhomes with full hookup sites positioned along flowing water. Three Peaks RV Resort contains 31 sites with electricity, water, and sewer connections in a more mountainous setting. Sites at these parks typically include gravel pads requiring some leveling, especially at the mountain locations. "Our site was nicely shaded and fairly level. Fire pit and picnic table at each site," noted one camper describing their RV camping experience.
Navigation into several mountain parks requires careful driving, with some campgrounds featuring narrow roads and tight turns. Cell service varies significantly across the region, with stronger signals at lower elevation parks and spotty coverage in mountain locations. Many RV sites are positioned creek-side or with mountain views, though the proximity to water may affect site spacing. Pet-friendly policies are standard across most parks, with some providing designated dog areas. Dump stations are available at larger facilities, while smaller parks may direct travelers to nearby sanitary stations. Travelers should note that mountain weather can change rapidly in spring and fall, affecting road conditions for larger motorhomes. During peak foliage season, advance reservations become essential as many pull-through sites book months ahead.

GuideMother nature is amazing and helps relieve stress from the ones who never deserved to be around you to take and cover it up. So I'll run to God's beauty, and enjoy my fire at the same time. Come on baby light my fire! ;)
ScoutNobody was here on Sat. Had gard time finding site. Site reserved did not have 30 amp and could not reach staff. Moved to other site hoping it would not be a problem. We were able to finally reach staff on Mon. Also no pcknick tables or fire rings.
ScoutLet me first start by saying that this campground is absolutely beautiful. I have lived in this area my entire life and the Doe is one of my favorites. I am a avid camper and have camped all over this area. I decided to give this place a try, I own a small pop-up camper and knew it was going to get cold 10/20/2026-10/22/2026, so me and my sister rented the RV at Doe River. #1 check in is not until 3pm, I always order a load of wood from a local guy who delivers to camp sites, I do all my cooking in a Dutch oven over the fire or burgers and dogs in the fire, what is a camping trip without a nice warm fire. The owner came over to my campsite and asked if I had ordered this wood and I replied yes, she then asked what I was going to do with it all, I replied I am going to burn it. So, I told Carl (the wood guy) where to stack it, the owner then said that I need to leave it in my truck bc if I didn't use it all I would have to put it back on my truck and take it home with me, I said really? It's just a unspoken rule that if you don't use all your wood that you pay it forward and leave it for the next camper?? She said absolutely not, So we moved the wood from his truck and into mine. She then asked again why I needed so much wood and that most ppl just buy small bundles from her. And just like that I understood! Carl the wood man and his wife also made a comment about how rude she was about the wood. It does not end there, Not only does she have camaras on some of the out blds which I get, but I don't get why they are pointing directly at camp sites, We felt like we were in a fish bowl the entire time. Every single time we went to the bathroom she showed up abt 5 mins later, There is a camara right above the bathroom door, One on the pavilion, and one on each side of the bathhouse, at the entrances and who know where else. So much for privacy in the great outdoors. I didn't even feel comfortable hiking, we felt like we were being watched constantly. She was constantly there, walking her dog which was not friendly and so big she could hardly control him on the leash which was really scary, she also was driving through several times throughout the day. Then came the kicker, about 1 o'clock in the morning we were freezing, I had turned the heat on in the camper before going to bed and heard it come on, Well the propane ran out between 11pm and 1am, I called her at least 10 times we had every blanket and was still freezing, We decided we would go to the bath house bc it had a mini split hanging on the wall, Out of luck there, it was set on air conditioning with no way to change it, so we found a blow dryer trying to get warm, still the entire time trying to call the owners, We finally ended up in our car until the husband arrived. He acted so annoyed at us and said all u have to do is fip the switch on the propane tanks outside! We had never stayed in a travel trailer before and according to them all we had to do was show up and start glamping!! So, I was supposed to know to go outside at 1 am and switch over propane tanks?? No, It should have been FULL when I got there!!! With attitude he said,"Its Basic Camping" No sir it's not, what I do is basic camping, I was told on the phone that I was glamping, She, the owner also said we should have called 911 when we could not get hold of them so that Carter County police officers could come and wake them up!!! Not sure if that is putting our tax dollars to good use?? Like I said it is truly a beautiful place and has great potential, we left that second night at 11pm because again the heat was not working, we have not asked for any refund we just took the loss. it would be to much of a hassle. We just know better next time. With owners like that they can keep it. Windy Wells/Debra Price
ScoutMy husband and I arrived at Doe River Landing for 3 nights and enjoyed everything the resort offered. While there we read the 2 reviews posted by Kylie T, and by Andrew W, who gave the resort a 1 star rating. Not knowing the facts that caused the rating by them, and occurred prior to us, we approach the owner and asked.
The owner showed us videos from their security cameras. These adults has stated in Kylie T review and confirm by Andrew W review that they were a group of 20 adults and "every single one of us is over 21 and family". So why are these adults playing "hide and seek" under the pavilion as they stated? Andrew W stated, "It was not blocked off", yet they had to crawl on the ground and around bushes to get under the pavilion. When the owner yelled at them approximately 10 adults that were under the pavilion crawled out which was captured on the security cameras. Andrew W stated in his review the owner called them hooligans, which is rowdy, destructive persons and from the security cameras, that description is correct. There was no mention of damages in their reviews such as the Adirondack chair they broke or possible damage to the water pipes and electric wires under the pavilion, which the owner was currently checking.
Once we read these two reviews by Kylie T and Andrew W and saw the owners security videos, we felt future customers deserved to know another opinion based on our findings.
These entitled adults justified their review of a 1 star by stating they paid money to use the campground.
I would ask these adults "why do you think it is OK to treat someone else's property in this destructive way?"
GuideSeems to be a well established campground in an off the beaten path location. Roads alternately paved and gravel. The campsite is gravel in a wooded setting. Fair amount of space between sites. The bathhouse is clean but dated.
ScoutWe brought our whole family out and rented almost every cabin on the property, plus the event center, for the weekend— we gave this place a lot of business. And honestly, the stay itself was great— nice place, no complaints about the cabins. The owner is the problem. He came flying in in his blue F-150 doing 20–30 mph where the posted speed limit is 5, and started screaming at us over something that could've been handled with a simple conversation. His exact words:"Where are your parents? This is a family establishment. I will not have hooligans running around here." Every single one of us is over 21 and family. All we were doing was playing hide and seek— which isn't against any of the property's rules— and there were no other guests to disturb, since we had the entire area rented. He still threatened to call the police, even though it wasn't even quiet hours. Before anyone could get a word in, he peeled out so fast the gravel sprayed up at us and our cars. Then on his way out he drove the wrong way down the property's one-way road, so apparently the rules only apply to guests. It's sad, because the property itself is great, and we were never anything but nice to the owners the whole weekend. To be treated in such an unprofessional manner— screamed at, threatened, and never given so much as an apology afterward— put a real dent in the weekend. We won't be back
ScoutOur group of about 20 rented nearly every cabin at Doe River Landing for my friend's wedding weekend, with the reception held on site. The cabins were nice and well-equipped, and the only other guests were in a cabin half a mile away through the woods. Unfortunately, the hosts ruined the stay. One night, some of us were playing hide and seek in an area that wasn't blocked off or against any rule. The host's husband came speeding in at roughly 30 mph(the posted limit is 5), jumped out of his truck screaming that he"will not have child hooligans running around the campground," told us to"go back to the motel we crawled out of," and demanded to see our parents— despite all of us being adults in our twenties. He then peeled out so aggressively he sprayed gravel at us and our cars. It wasn't even quiet hours, and we weren't disturbing anyone. Afterward, the host called us again, passive-aggressive, and questioned our ages— even though you have to be 21 just to rent a cabin there. The property is lovely, but the hosts' behavior put a real damper on what should have been a joyful wedding celebration. It's a shame they treat people paying good money this way. We won't be back.
TravelerIt’s a small, clean campground but we are next to a busy road (site 28) and also the entrance to the public access of Moss Lake. It’s a tight squeeze for us as a 33’ fifth wheel.
TravelerNice spot right on the river..Camp store & staff seem friendly & helpful-especially Sonny & Joshua.
Campsites in the Pinehurst region of North Carolina typically range from elevations of 400 feet to over 3,000 feet along the nearby Blue Ridge mountains, affecting temperature variations between valley and mountain locations. Seasonal weather shifts in the area can be dramatic, with summer temperatures reaching the 90s at lower elevations while mountain sites may remain 10-15 degrees cooler. Campgrounds near Pinehurst provide varied experiences from creek-side locations to mountain settings with different accessibility challenges depending on elevation.
Fishing in Buck Creek: Buck Creek offers clear water fishing opportunities with several spots directly accessible from campsites. "We spent one night here (May 23, 2022). We set up in a down pour, the office attendant offered to help with umbrellas and 2-way radios, nice guy! This is a very nice, easy access CG with level pull through(a few) and back-in gravel sites (many are backed up to the Buck Creek, it's beautiful)," reports John T.
Hiking Mount Mitchell: The highest peak east of the Mississippi is accessible from several area campgrounds and offers multiple trail difficulties. "We hiked mount Mitchell- cooked on our fire pit and relaxed with the fresh mountain air and starry nights - slept peacefully with the sounds of the running stream," shares Barbara S. from her stay at Mountain Stream RV Park.
Visit Linville Falls: This natural attraction features multiple viewing platforms with varying hiking distances. "The falls were breath taking. I definitely will make an effort to return to venture further. No handicap access," notes Michelle S. about her experience visiting Linville Falls Campground.
Creek-side relaxation: Many campgrounds feature sites directly on flowing water, offering both recreation and natural sound dampening. "I sat in the creek in my camp chair and was more relaxed then I have been in a very long time. There is alot to see somewhat close by too. We did Chimney Rock & Linville Falls, both absolutely beautiful!" explains Kara L. from her stay at Mountain Stream RV Park.
Community events: Some rv parks near Pinehurst, North Carolina organize regular social activities. "Each Saturday evening, Kevin serves up his special home cooked bar-b-que under the shelter at no additional cost, and many campers bring sides to share. It's like having a back yard picnic with friends and family!" shares Duncan C. about Mountain Stream RV Park.
Clean facilities: Campground cleanliness ranks high in visitor satisfaction at Pinehurst area RV resorts. "These are the cleanest bathrooms we've ever seen. The on-site store is a life saver and the hosts are very helpful," reports Phil W. from his experience at Linville Falls Campground.
Cell service variations: Mobile connectivity differs significantly between campgrounds. "AT&T coverage was decent, ranging from 1-3 bars that vacillated between LTE& 5G with speeds varying from 1.3 to 6.2 MB/s. CG WiFi was having issues while we were there, but when it worked we were able to get speeds up to 4 MB/s," explains Ray & Terri F. from their stay at Granny's Place RV Resort.
Site privacy considerations: Campsite proximity varies between facilities. "The only reason I did not give this a Five Star Rating was that the site we stayed at was a little small#7. Even with a 25-foot camper, I could not let me awning out fully and we felt almost on top of camper when we sat outside near the fire pit," notes James U. about Mountain Stream RV Park.
Seasonal operation: Many rv parks near the Pinehurst area operate on limited schedules. "We stayed here August 16-19 in our 39ft motorhome and toad. Buck Creek has easy access and nice campsites. The property is well kept. The owner was very hospitable. It was convenient to visit Linville Falls and Mount Mitchell," shares Shela F., who visited Buck Creek during its April to November operating season.
Swimming access: Creek and river swimming spots provide natural recreation options. "Between hiking on the east and west rims of Linville Gorge and mountain biking the Fonta Flora trail we didn't spend a ton of time at the campsite but it was very a nice place to make basecamp for our adventures," mentions Dustin F. about his stay at Rose Creek Retreat.
Playground availability: Some campgrounds offer dedicated play areas. "A small campground with an updated basic playground set for the kids. Nice lawn courtyard for games. Beautiful level sites backed right up to Buck Creek where we enjoyed catching trout straight from our campsite," notes Megan M.
Kid-friendly hiking trails: The region offers various difficulty levels for family hikes. "We recommend the hike to Crabtree Falls!" suggests Jess from their stay at Mountain Stream RV Park, highlighting accessible natural attractions suitable for families with children.
Site leveling requirements: Terrain conditions vary significantly between valley and mountain campgrounds. "The sites are gravel, pretty level, fairly large and well spaced. There is a bit of road noise at times from Hwy 80, but it's not too bad," explains Ray & Terri F. about camping at Granny's Place RV Resort.
Entrance navigation: Some campgrounds present access challenges for larger rigs. "The turn in from the North to the 3 main sites via the North driveway is a little sporty, but we managed to just barely make it. The owner said he'd have to work on that," warns Ray & Terri F. about their arrival at Granny's Place with their 36-foot Class A motorhome.
Pull-through availability: Campgrounds like Three Peaks RV Resort offer easier access options. "Every site is a pull through with ample space, full hookups, and good Wi-Fi," shares Eric B., noting the convenience for larger vehicles at this newer facility with 31 sites.
