According to a camper, "The glamping site was impeccably clean with excellent amenities, and we loved being close enough to hear nature but far enough from other campers to maintain privacy and relaxation."
"I would recommend renting the “off road” golf cart for fun. The only negative is the lack of bath houses."
"We had booked a site at a nearby Asheboro campground, but when we arrived it was awful and we decided not to stay. I got on the phone with Jellystone, and they were very accommodating."
"Our site had a great view of the beautiful lake. There was a pool our kids could swim in until 7:00pm. They let us borrow a metal fire pit so we could make s’mores."
"This site along with sites 8 and 9 have electric so I was able to run an extension cord into my tent. This site has gorgeous views of the lake and seems to share a grill with #11. "
"Nice place to camp for a few days - we had a campervan and were surrounded by huge, but quiet, RVs."

"Game room, store and grill. Spacious and level sites. Hiking trails and lake with small beach for swimming and fishing. Pet + horse friendly. Neatly kept. Kind and helpful host."

GuideStopped here after our fiasco with holly bluff. Beautiful campground with trees. Very quiet during the day and peaceful. The only thing we found curious was the vehicle in and right back out activity between 10:30-pm and 1am back and forth to campers that were long term stays. Made nighttime hard to sleep in site 3 with vehicles back and forth for hours .
ScoutLooking for a nice place for a camping getaway? We highly recommend checking out the Deep River Campground in Asheboro, NC. The location itself is beautiful. It is literally on the Deep River and features a hiking trail that runs along the river past the remnants of a historical damn, where a small area of rapids gently swirls around the big rocks spanning the river. There’s also a large lake with a nice grassy expanse for picnics, playing games or just lazing around lakeside. This campground has been around for a while, but it has new owners now and they are breathing some for real new life into the place. They have already made lots of repairs and improvements, and you can see more in progress. There are sites for RVs with all the hook-ups, and great primitive sites for tent camping, several located right on the river. If you don’t have an RV and sleeping on the ground doesn’t spark joy, they have a few small rustic but nicely-appointed cabins. You’ll find two pools, several covered picnic shelters, a playground for the small ones, and several options for older kids and adults to play, like a horseshoe pit and a nice game room. They also have planned activities like movie nights and weiner roasts most evenings to entertain and create community among campers. They are pet friendly and have their own pet mascots on site— a flock of ducks including beautifully colored teals and mallards. We were just there for 2 nights, but I have a good feeling we’ll be visiting there again soon. Definitely worth a visi
RangerWas a monthly Camper when I came in to the campground. Nobody was cleaning the men’s room. No one was trying to collect the fall leaves. This is an old run down campground. I cleaned the men’s room for free because there was no staff to clean. I regret helping the owner for free on multiple occasions.
GuideThe sites are very large, long and wider at the back, plenty of room for a big group or family. The bathrooms look new and they are clean. Here during the week so it's very empty and quiet.
TravelerWe visited Crosswinds campground at Jordan Lake State Park on the worst heatwave of the year. The great thing about this area is that the sites a well shaded. We were about 50 yards from the lake, with the wind blowing we still were comfortable all day. We stayed on Loop A, which is my favorite loop at the park. There’s no electricity or water at the sites. There are water spickets throughout the loop with potable water. The site is awesome! There’s a small pond beside it. The neighboring sites are close, but regular conversations can not be heard.this loop is always quiet even when there are a lot of people, but it’s never been full when I’m there. I didn’t do good with photos except for the food.
ScoutDecent campground in a beautiful location along Lake Jordan. Crosswinds Campground is one of several sites on the lake. We chose this location since the gates stay open all the time, while other sites have a curfew that can lock you out for the night.
The staff are super friendly and helpful. There’s apparently a camp host whom we never met and they’re on the site next to ours (not sure if they’re supposed to greet us or help us get acquainted with the site, but the staff member at check in was great and did all that when we arrived).
Loop C is quiet, very few children, and less road noise compared to the other loops, but doesn’t have the same access to the lake.
Site C50 is conveniently located close to the bath house, has a large fire pit with adjustable grill, picnic table, and hookups for water and electricity. We’re in a tent, so really just use the electricity. The picnic table here should be replaced, as the wood seems to be rotting, but still does the job. There are a few sites in loop C that do have direct access to the lake, but those tend to be booked all of the time. We explored one last night and couldn’t believe it was vacant and how much nicer it seemed.
Bathrooms are not as clean as I would like, but I bring disinfectant wipes to wipe the toilet before use. Showers are fine, but use an annoying motion sensor to turn the water on/off. Showering at night is annoying with the bugs because the bathhouse is lit like a beacon (probably for safety). Waiting for the daytime is a better experience. Also, there isn’t a washing station for dishes, and we do that at our site.
Firewood can be purchased by the staff at the campground entrance; however, the exact same firewood is almost $4 fewer at a Refuel station down the street. Definitely stop into that gas station store for things you might need.
Overall, really good experience staying here, some annoying things, but won’t ruin your stay.
ScoutReally fantastic spot to camp! Great sites and hook ups (no sewer, but EASY dump station)! Go for Loop B - it has the beach.
TravelerI don’t have any complaints about this campground! Sites are nice and feel like you aren’t close to anyone else. Very pretty area, quiet. Newest bathhouse I have ever seen at a state park! Awesome showers.
ScoutIs a very basic campground they are having allot of plumbing issues. no activities for the kids no hot tub, store, restaurant or music on weekends anymore
Glamping in Randleman, North Carolina offers camping options near the Uwharrie National Forest, where elevations range from 350 to 1,000 feet above sea level. Located in the central Piedmont region, the area maintains moderate temperatures throughout spring and fall camping seasons with occasional summer humidity. Campgrounds in this region provide access to local waterways including Jordan Lake and Lake Reidsville.
Hiking and water activities: Oak Hollow City Campground sits on a lake with options for kayaking and swimming. "We tent camped on Aug 28. This was our first time setting up on a platform and it was very easy. Our site had a great view of the beautiful lake. There was a pool our kids could swim in until 7:00pm," notes Larisa C., who enjoyed the water-based recreation at Oak Hollow City Campground.
Wildlife viewing: Morrow Mountain State Park Campground offers multiple trails for spotting local wildlife. James H. observed that "the park is gorgeous and full of life. I saw plenty of frogs and tadpoles in the creeks, listened to a symphony of birds, and I'm pretty sure heard a few coyotes throughout the night. I also saw an abundance of different species of spiders, dragonflies, moths, and other interesting critters."
Fishing opportunities: Jordan Lake provides excellent fishing access directly from some campsites. "Some sites are on the lake and close enough to pull your boat up to the shore," explains Cindy S. from her stay at Crosswinds Campground — Jordan Lake State Recreation Area. The proximity makes it convenient for anglers to access the water throughout their stay.
Tent camping platforms: Several campgrounds near Randleman feature elevated wooden platforms for tent setup, providing level, dry camping surfaces. "Our site had a great view of the lake. There was a pool our kids could swim in until 7:00pm. They let us borrow a metal fire pit so we could make s'mores," reports a visitor at Oak Hollow City Campground.
Creekside experiences: At Moonshine Creek Campground, campers appreciate the natural water features. "This was the prettiest, friendliest, most peaceful campground I've ever stayed. Landscaping is beautiful, but still natural. Benches throughout even in the creek to put your feet in," shares Becqui M., highlighting the thoughtful integration of natural features.
Spacious camping areas: Jordan Lake campsites offer ample room for equipment and activities. "The sites are big with a picnic table, fire pit and lantern hook. Plenty to do here with the lake at your fingertips," notes Paul H., who found the park easily accommodated their 39-foot Class A motorhome.
Noise factors: Some campgrounds near highways experience traffic noise. Greg H. notes about Greensboro KOA: "As previously mentioned, serves its purpose for an overnight. Right off the highway, and by that I mean you see, and HEAR the traffic. The billboard in front of the trailer is an interesting touch. Nothing ear plugs and a long day can't fix."
Site leveling challenges: Terrain varies significantly between campgrounds. "Many sites are not level so plan ahead and bring extra levelers," advises Lisa A. about site preparation. This is particularly important for RV campers ensuring proper stabilization.
Bathhouse facilities: Bathhouse quality varies by location. While some campgrounds feature updated facilities, others need improvement. "Bath house was ok. It was clean enough, but you could tell it was extremely old, and needed to be completely redone instead of just painted over," observes Jen V. from a stay at a nearby campground.
Activity planning: Family-oriented campgrounds offer structured activities throughout the day. "This campground has many things to do for the Littles. I would recommend renting the 'off road' golf cart for fun," suggests Rebecca F. from her stay at Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park at Asheboro.
Nearby attractions: Schedule time for the North Carolina Zoo. "We were 15 mins from the zoo which was amazing. You're close to stores and restaurants if you want but far enough out that it doesn't feel close," shares Tucker M. This proximity makes luxury camping in Randleman perfect for families splitting time between camp and attractions.
Multiple pool options: Some campgrounds feature separate swimming areas for different age groups. "There is a putt putt course, pool, adults only pool and lounge, family lounge with small arcade games, pool table, and other games," notes Brooke S. about recreational options at Thousand Trails Forest Lake.
Hookup specifics: Electric service varies by campsite. "Full hookups (30/50 amp)" are available at certain locations, according to Joel R., making it important to confirm power specifications when booking upscale camping near Randleman.
Navigation challenges: Some campgrounds have narrow access roads. Ruth P. points out: "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."
Site selection strategy: For lake views, specific sites offer better perspectives. "Site 10 our 11 are the best," recommends Ed W. about waterfront camping, while another camper suggests, "Go for a lakefront site or one on the side of the campground. Site 10 had a nice view of the woods."
