      Statesville RV Park I-77

      Right off of Interstate

      This KOA is RIGHT off of the interstate. If you are in midtravel and need a place to overnight this is a nice KOA for that. The camping cabins are cozy, we stayed in a single which has 1 dbl bed and twin sized bunk bed. Staff was very friendly. I wouldn't consider this a camping destination.

      New River Trail Cabins

      Cozy, clean, beautiful cabins and fun area!

      Beautiful decor and extremely clean interior. The bed is very comfortable and linens are crisp and inviting. You can tell they don't harsh products because your skin is not itchy. The kitchen accommodations are perfect for a family with refrigerator, microwave and gas grill included with every cabin. The jacuzzi tub is a nice touch. Plenty of towels and even robes to use!

      The rocking chairs on the back porch allow you to sip coffee, while watching trout swim in Chestnut Creek. The exteriors are clean as well. The grounds are natural and well maintained. There is also a nice common area with chairs and a firepit with wood to use. 

      The staff was pleasant and helpful. 

      We went to the local movie theater and a splash pad and park for the kids in town. The downtown 4th of July parade was wonderful! We rode the Blue Ridge Parkway which is very close by and enjoyed live music at the Blue Ridge Music Center. The cabins are about 30 minutes to Mt. Airy (Mayberry). Local antiques, coffee shops, specialty stores are abundant. Car Shiws on Thursday monthly downtown and BINGO at the Moose Lodge here in Galax is the best which is on Tuesdays. If you are an antique lover or picker don't miss my favorites, many in downtown Galax and a couple coffee shops and make sure you go to "Nest and Hive" in Fancy Gap and  "The River House And Home Company" in Hillsville. You won't regret it!

      I've been coming here for 20 years and will 20 more. The mountains are calling!

      Stony Fork Campground

      Great lowkey spot!

      Great spot, private, with good running water hot showers and flush toilets. Picnic table and fire ring with grate, the creek by our site was so nice and bubbling. Every spot was private and maintained. Absolutely no issues and was worth the $20, easy check in, self check out. Felt very safe here despite it being remote

      Stone Mountain State Park Campground

      One night only

      We stayed for one night only on our way to Dreher Island SP. We didn't get in until after 4 pm, but there was still enough daylight to see how pretty the campground was. We had site 60 for the night. We tow a 19' a-frame camper with a Toyota Tacoma and had lots of room on the pad. The pad was pretty level so set up was easy. The site also had a huge area for the picnic table and the fire ring is far away from your camper. There was a huge grassy area behind our site with a creek, lots of space for our dog. We were in campground B (electric) and the sites were decent. There wasn't a lot shade for us, but up in the tent area they were surrounded by trees and it looked like they all had tent pads, some better than others. The shower house was nice, clean, flush toilets, and good showers. By the shower house they also had an outside sink to wash your dishes. We didn't get to hike, but everyone said we should if we ever go back. It's on our list to visit again.

      Deer Trail Park & Campground

      Great campground! All the comforts

      Nice campground, has variety of accommodations including RV and tent sites and small cabins. Huge game room, heated pool and lots of recreation areas for kids. There is a stream and pond, which allows catch and release. Laundry is small but functional and right by pool deck that has covered tables. No issues with staff…everything smooth for reservations. We stayed here to visit friends close by and we also drove to WV to raft New River, about 90 minutes away.

      Claytor Lake State Park Campground

      Beautiful Lake 🛶

      Stayed for three nights in October. We had site B9 which was near a group site - so be mindful of this! During our trip it was full of loud and unsupervised kids.

      We paddled around the lake on Sunday; there are a couple of different boat launches in the park. The cliffs are freaking amazing from the launch closest to the park entrance. It’s so beautiful on the water, especially this time of year.

      There’s also a camp store/visitor center. Our site included a fire ring, two lantern posts, and a picnic table. Firewood and ice are available at the entrance station (can use credit card), and wood is available from the camp host (cash only). Lots of hiking and bike trails throughout. Very clean restrooms and showers. We had a really great time and will totally be back in the spring 🍂🍁

      Fancy Gap-Blue Ridge Parkway KOA

      Camping in Quiet

      This is our second time here. It's pretty quiet here. There is a heated pool (closed), corn hole, playground, and multiple games. We noticed there's no kids during this time of the year. The KOA station has some cute gifts. 24 hrs. Restrooms, laundry area, and great outdoor. The cabins have there very own toilet, tv, full size bed, and bunk beds. Very nice KOA.

      Easy stop

      On the blue ridge parkway. We stayed in one of the cabins, it was clean with fresh linens, a fridge, and microwave. Comfortable relaxing porch chairs to watch the sunset over the mountains. The owners are super friendly and helpful.

      Claytor Lake State Park Campground

      Something for everyone

      This beautiful state park offered large, leveled, gravel area for our teardrop trailer. Site had a picnic table, large fire ring, electric and water hook up. Sites were private due to trees around each site.

      Our site was #35 which was a lovely end spot. It was also diagonally across from the bathrooms/shower. Site had plenty of room for our teardrop camper, The Clam screened shelter, and our Jeep. 

      Campground was around a beautiful lake that had a full marina - boat ramp, slips, dock house, kayak and paddle board rentals. May have also had other watercraft rentals - saw really cute pontoon boats. There was a bass fishing tournament being held while we were there. Also had a bunch of hiking trails in various lengths and levels of difficulty. Park ranger had scheduled lectures for children and adults around a campfire in the early evening. 

      Bathrooms: 3 showers, 3 stalls. Clean, no bugs. Were a little run down but clean. Shower had good water pressure and water was hot. Lighting in the women’s bathroom was dark by the showers and flickering (horror movie style) but clean. 

      We saw turkey vultures, deer, and woodpeckers near our campsite. Wish we had more time there to explore the trails - had something for everyone.


    Guide to Roaring Gap

    Cabins near Roaring Gap, North Carolina range from rustic to fully equipped accommodations nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains at elevations between 2,500-3,000 feet. Seasonal temperature variations create distinct camping experiences, with summer highs averaging 75-85°F while winter temperatures regularly drop below freezing. Most cabin properties enforce quiet hours beginning at 10:00 PM when park gates typically lock for overnight security.

    What to do

    Hiking at Stone Mountain State Park: Explore 18+ miles of trails with varying difficulty levels surrounding the 600-foot granite dome. "Great sites. Clean bathrooms, close to many hiking trails and waterfalls," notes Joe B., who visited Stone Mountain State Park Campground. The park features five backpacking campsites spaced approximately quarter-mile apart along the creek.

    Fishing opportunities: Cast for trout at Blue Bear Mountain Camp's stocked pond, accessible via a moderately strenuous trail. "We caught a trout in the pond right away," shares Kristen J. about her stay at Blue Bear Mountain Camp. The elevation provides natural cooling with July temperatures typically only reaching 70-80°F.

    Vineyard experience: Sample local wines while staying on-site at vineyard accommodations. "Very nice peaceful setting and you can wine taste while you are visiting," explains Kristi D. about her experience at Roaring River Vineyards. The campground offers electric hookups behind the restaurant and pond area.

    What campers like

    Lower humidity at higher elevations: Campers appreciate the natural cooling effect of mountain cabin locations. "The elevation is high so weather is nice for those trying to escape the summer heat," notes Kristen J. about Blue Bear Mountain Camp. Most mountain cabin sites remain 10-15 degrees cooler than surrounding lowlands during summer months.

    Accessibility to Blue Ridge Parkway: Many cabin properties provide convenient access to scenic drives. "Located right off the Blue Ridge Parkway the views are amazing. You have access to several small towns and state parks with plenty of trials and things to see," writes Bill R. about his stay at Fancy Gap Cabins and Campground. Multiple access points connect cabin areas to the parkway within 5-10 minute drives.

    Seasonal activities: Each season offers distinct experiences at cabin properties. "We went in December and there wasn't many people there at all, maybe 4 other campers all weekend," reports Charli R. from Stone Mountain State Park. During winter months, cabins with heating systems become particularly valuable as overnight temperatures regularly drop below freezing.

    What you should know

    Terrain considerations: Many cabin locations feature steep or challenging access roads. "They had us camp up on the top of the hill and it was difficult to navigate back down, with some very sharp turns for our fifth wheel," cautions Megan B. about her experience at Fancy Gap-Blue Ridge Parkway KOA.

    Water fill-up procedures: Not all cabin properties provide direct hookups. "They do not have water hookups - you fill your camper tank with water at the office area," explains Mandy R. about Blue Bear Mountain Camp. Most properties provide communal water spigots spaced every 3-4 cabin sites.

    Reservation requirements: Summer weekends and October leaf season require advance planning. "You have to book early because C3 is very popular," advises Mandy R. regarding preferred sites at Blue Bear Mountain Camp. Most cabin properties open reservations 6-12 months in advance with 50% deposits required.

    Tips for camping with families

    Playgrounds and activities: Some properties offer dedicated children's areas and organized events. "My family and I stayed here for a few days. The campground is beautiful. We ordered campground room service from Daves Smokehouse which was excellent and arrived very quickly," reports Dave B. about Fancy Gap-Blue Ridge Parkway KOA.

    Fishing access: Look for properties with stocked fishing areas for family entertainment. "The camp site is well maintained. Sites are level and spaced out for room to open your slide and awning. Picnic tables and fire pits at every site," notes Bill R. about Fancy Gap Cabins and Campground. Most fishing ponds require catch-and-release practices and state fishing licenses for adults over age 16.

    Bathhouse facilities: Family-friendly cabin sites maintain clean, accessible facilities. "Bathroom was amazing. Pulled my review from a 3+ to a 5! Private baths like at home. Toilet, sink and shower all to yourself and CLEAN!" explains Peter H. about his stay at Fancy Gap-Blue Ridge Parkway KOA. Most bathhouses are centrally located within 100-200 yards of cabin sites.

    Tips from RVers

    Site dimensions: Check specifications before booking cabin areas that also accommodate RVs. "Site 35's tent pad was 13'x 19' and fairly level. However, it appeared each site had a different sized pad based on terrain and available space," notes Dave V. from his visit to Hanging Rock State Park Campground.

    Electric options: Verify amperage availability if bringing an RV to cabin areas. "I chose a site that had water and electric hook-ups. The bathrooms were heated, clean and the men's bathroom had two showers," reports David B. about Stone Mountain State Park. Most electric sites offer 30-amp service, with limited 50-amp connections available at premium sites.

    Dump station locations: Not all cabin properties provide on-site dumping facilities. "They have a dump station where you can empty your tanks on your way out," explains Mandy R. about Blue Bear Mountain Camp. Public dump stations are typically available within 15-20 miles of most cabin properties.
