Best RV Parks & Resorts near Southmont, NC

RV parks near Southmont provide varied options for motorhome travelers. Lake Myers RV Resort operates from April through November with full hookup sites accommodating large rigs.

Bass Lake in Salisbury provides water and electric hookups with dump station access, while Greystone RV Park in Pinnacle accommodates RVs with full hookup sites in a more natural setting. "Sites were gravel, not all level, but not too bad. Full hook-ups, picnic table and fire pit. Extremely friendly staff," noted one camper about their experience at a nearby park.

Several parks require advance reservations, particularly during fall foliage season when availability becomes limited. Cell service varies significantly throughout the region, with Verizon coverage reported as excellent at Lake Norman State Park but spotty at other locations.

    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.

    Midway Campground Resort

    Family-Friendly

    This is a small, family-friendly campground. There is a pond for fishing, a nice pool, a jump pad, playground, arcade, and mini-golf. Plenty for kids to do. The best feature is a haunted trail at Halloween (this gets very busy so be aware if you plan to camp around this time of year). Sites are not necessarily level and big rigs might have a hard time navigating the campground, but folks are friendly and it's a nice place to spend a few days. They do offer long-term sites if you need to stay in the area for a while.

    Ararat River Campground

    Wonderful owners

    The new owners have revamped this campground. From what I’ve heard, this wasn’t the place to go prior to the ownership change. The owners here care about everyone at the campground, and keep it nice and clean. They also expect their full time campers to keep their lots and campers in good condition. Both owners are very approachable and respectful. Campground is just a short hike to the Ararat River. Which is why the new name is Ararat River Campground. No tent camping, but 30 amp and 50 amp camper hookups are available with sewage. In the warm months the owner holds church services in the pavilion behind lot 12. Owners offer a flat monthly rate that includes water, electric, wifi, and campground maintenance.

    Deep River Campground And RV Park

    Unlevel & messy

    We made a mistake. My wife and I are moving to North Carolina, and we were looking for a place to stay for a month in the Asheboro area. I checked around and Deep River was the only local campground with long-term sites available, so I made the reservation. The owner, Scott, was very helpful throughout the reservation process and we thought we were going to have a good experience. 

    When we showed up, Scott met us at the office and he took us to the "most level site" he had available. I was a little concerned from the start because the sewer pipe was sitting at a 45 degree angle and it was half buried in the ground. I had to help dig out the pipe and when I looked inside I noticed the connection was broken and any drainage would  have leached directly into the ground. Additionally, the sewer connection was more than 40 feet from the center of the site and I only carry 30 feet of line, so we had to back way up in order to hook-up. Unfortunately, that meant that our primary slide was within 3 feet of a giant pine tree so there was barely enough room to open it. Another problem with being so far back in the site was how unlevel the camper was. It took a while for me to get the trailer unhitched and by the time I had it nearly level, I had used all of my blocks and the jack was extended to the maximum height. Needless to say, I did not feel very comfortable with the arrangement and I was really starting to question whether or not to stay. 

    Then I started looking around at the site and there was trash everywhere with broken pieces of metal and half chewed dog bones strewn about. I looked at my wife and I could tell she was not happy. So I got on my phone, called another campground and made reservations. Scott was understanding, he tried to talk us into trying another site but by that time we had decided to move on. I will give Scott credit, he didn't charge us a cancellation fee, so that was good.

    A quick note, the WiFi was limited to close to the office and we would have had to pay Spectrum for a monthly internet connection. Also, Verizon cell coverage was weak.

    Lake Norman State Park Campground

    Beautiful park, great facilities

    Full hookups were all filled but site 29 was a primitive, deep, level 57 foot site right near water siphon and a beautiful modern bathhouse picnic table and fire grate/ring. Fair amount of space between sites, firewood sold by camphost or ranger. Made yummy hot dogs over fire, wonderful night, hot showers, clean facilities. You will be thrilled with this park, lake is beautiful, many hiking trails, biking, etc. Verizon cell service was excellent at our site and appeared good throughout park.

    Greystone RV Park

    Amazing view of Pilot Mountain

    Highly Recommended! We had the opportunity for an extended stay at Greystone in 2024 and had an exceptional experience. This is one of the best campgrounds we've found in all of our RV travels. The owners and camp host are some of the finest people you can meet and you can tell they really care about their customers. If you're looking for a small, quiet campground that checks all of the boxes then this is the one. And the unobstructed view of Pilot Mountain is the icing on the cake. If you can stay a night with Greystone, you will not be disappointed! We stayed in site 10 (end site) and it perfect for our 25 ft travel trailer. The gated campground has ten FHU sites for self contained RVs ( no pop ups or tents allowed), all sites have wifi and open sky for starlink, campground bathhouse and laundry are five stars. Camp host sells firewood for campfires.

    Morrow Mountain State Park Campground

    Historical get away in the forest

    The swaying of pine trees with the smell of the forest greets us at this easily accessible site in our motorhome. Electric and water hookups at our site, dump station available on the way out, camp host available. Picnic tables, fire pit available at our site. Lots of shade, plenty of trails that cover this State Park. The Kron house nearby, the swimming pool ( closed at time of our visit). The town of Albemarle 10 minutes away and Badin lake right down the mountain. Lots of history here just stop at the ranger station for information, maps and more.

    Zooland Family Campground

    Great spot, well placed with Zoo.

    Great stay. Minutes from the zoo. We did a three day weekend here, with a day at the zoo, and the rest of the time playing at the campground.

    3 kids all loved it.

    Sites were gravel, not all level, but not too bad. Full hook-ups, picnic table and fire pit. Extremely friendly staff.

    Morrow Mountain State Park Campground

    Family friendly, clean, quiet considering close proximity of neighbors

    Very family friendly camp ground. Sites are close together, but not too terrible. Sites include tent pad, fire ring with grate, table, lantern hook. Facilities we're kept nicely, host was very helpful and makes rounds in the evenings with firewood ($5 bundle). Hiked the trail head near the campground, to the river.. lovely hike NO RIVER ACCESS FOR FISHING though... Embankment is too steep, we learned this after the 2.5 mile hike with the kids... Went down the road to the lake the next day (they have boat rentals, though we didn't get one).


Guide to Southmont

Camping options around Southmont, North Carolina extend beyond traditional RV parks into a range of accommodation styles. The area sits at approximately 760 feet above sea level near High Rock Lake, with warm summers averaging 87°F and mild winters rarely dropping below 30°F. The camping season stretches from early spring through late fall, with many sites requiring advanced planning during NASCAR events at nearby Charlotte Motor Speedway.

What to do

Fishing and boating access: Lake Myers RV Resort has a stocked fishing pond and boat access. "We stayed 21 days had a blast nothing but good things to say here thanks Pete for all your kindness," shared one camper at Lake Myers RV Resort.

Farm experiences: Some rv sites near Southmont, North Carolina include educational opportunities. "This is a great relaxing get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life! As the owners, we love relaxing & enjoying the bonfires, sunsets, wildlife & star gazing," notes a representative from Ivory Clay Farm.

Water recreation: Multiple swimming options exist within 30 minutes of Southmont. "Many activities offered for family with 2 large pools etc," reports a visitor about Lake Myers RV Resort.

Mini golf and games: Family recreation options include organized activities and games. "Part of the Thousand Trails System. 2 swimming pools, camp store, snack bar, fishing pond (I caught 2 sunfishes in 30 min & I'm no fisherman) basketball court, mini golf, & playground equipment," explains a camper at Thousand Trails Forest Lake.

What campers like

Affordable stopovers: Many campgrounds offer discount programs for travelers. "Nice camp ground with plenty of space. Some amenities. Bass lake is small, but nice and the weather was beautiful so it was a nice setting as the evening feel. Fun watching all the turtles in water bobbing in and out. Nice way to end a travel day. Quiet place even close to the hyway. Friendly staff. Passport America Full hookup," notes a visitor to Bass Lake.

Farm-fresh experiences: Campgrounds with agricultural elements receive positive feedback. "The best part was getting fresh eggs from the check-in store each morning... And I mean... Fresh Eggs. Really cool place," shared a visitor to Cobble Hill RV Campground.

Family activities: Organized events provide additional value. "A+ campground.. fun activities.. kid friendly.. love playing BINGO here!!" reports a Lake Myers visitor.

Peaceful settings: Campers appreciate quieter camping options. "10 flat, paved spots on the top of hillside looking up at Pilot Mt. You're right next to your neighbors, but was a great spot for a stopover. Very clean and the fact that it's family owned was nice," explains a visitor to Greystone RV Park.

What you should know

Site terrain varies: Level sites remain in high demand. "The campground is very cramped and the owner is very unfriendly and was unwilling to work with me after I asked not to park my fifth wheel under a hickory tree that was rubbing the top of my recently recoated roof," reports a visitor to Cane Creek Campground and RV Park.

Campground layouts: Sites have different privacy levels. "This campground has so many sites and they are well laid out and spacious. They have 30 amp and 50 amp sites to suit your needs," notes a Forest Lake visitor.

Seasonal considerations: Amenities change throughout the year. "Unfortunately a lot of the activity type things (arcade, mini-golf, horseshoes, etc) weren't available because we visited in the off season. Bummer but to be expected even though we had super nice weather," explains a Forest Lake camper.

Noise factors: Entertainment can affect quiet hours. "We've been for 2 nights in a row (so far) and both nights were very noisy because of two concerts," notes a Lake Myers visitor.

Tips for camping with families

Age-appropriate activities: Consider age ranges when selecting campgrounds. "The staff is wonderfully nice and helpful. We took our three boys (all under 5) for the weekend. There was not much at all for them to do other than play in the pool, which was a tad bit dirty. BUT there were storms that weekend so I don't think that was their fault. There is a play ground and game room for older kids but nothing for the smaller children to do."

Wildlife viewing opportunities: Natural elements enhance family experiences. "We enjoyed sitting near the pond and just watching the ducks swim," writes a Cobble Hill visitor.

Lodge facilities: Indoor recreation spaces provide weather backup plans. "Lodge has TV & pool table (we did not try either) but nice amenity for rainy days," reports a Forest Lake visitor.

Kid-friendly environment: Some RV sites near Southmont prioritize child-friendly atmospheres. "Lots of kids that play together well," notes a Forest Lake camper.

Tips from RVers

Vehicle size limitations: Not all campgrounds accommodate larger rigs. "This is a decent family-friendly campground but is quite difficult to navigate the roads and sites if you have a larger rig. Nice pool and good pet area," cautions a Lake Myers visitor.

Long-term stays: Extended stays require different considerations. "Stayed at Carolina Rose for a few months over the winter. Very friendly staff, and VERY reasonable rates. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again when I'm in the area," reports a Cobble Hill visitor.

Connectivity issues: Work-from-road travelers note internet variability. "We visited with our 33' travel trailer. Site D64 is plenty long but has the y of the road surrounding you. Verizon service has 2 bars. Occasionally got a little spotty while working, but our hotspot worked enough. Streaming did get dicey," shares a Lake Myers visitor.

Site selection timing: Earlier arrival improves selection options. "They reserve you a spot, but not a specific spot so get there early if you want your pick," advises a Salem Breeze RV Park visitor.
