Best Campgrounds near Summerfield, NC

Campgrounds near Summerfield, North Carolina provide options for both tent and RV camping within a short drive. The area features several established campgrounds including Greensboro KOA and Lake Reidsville Recreation Park, both offering full hookup sites for RVs and dedicated tent camping areas. Hagan-Stone Park in nearby Pleasant Garden provides additional camping facilities with electric hookups and water access. Most campgrounds in the region remain open year-round, though Pilot Mountain State Park Campground operates seasonally from March through November. Local campgrounds are searchable through The Dyrt's listings.

Seasonal considerations affect campground amenities and accessibility throughout the region. "The park is nice and clean. The bathhouse was well kept. The staff had decorations throughout the park for Halloween which is something I don't remember them doing in the past," noted one visitor about Lake Reidsville Recreation Park. Water levels at Lake Reidsville fluctuate seasonally, potentially affecting waterfront sites. While most campgrounds offer year-round accessibility, higher elevation areas like Hanging Rock State Park and Pilot Mountain may experience colder temperatures in winter. Many campgrounds require reservations, especially for weekend stays during peak summer months. Cell coverage varies by location, with better reception typically available at KOA and city park campgrounds than at more remote state park sites.

Campers consistently highlight waterfront sites as particularly desirable in the region. Lake Reidsville Recreation Park receives high ratings for its lakefront camping, with one reviewer stating, "Sites right on the lake. Boating, hiking, fishing and friendly people." Highway noise presents a challenge at some locations, particularly at Greensboro KOA, where proximity to Interstate 40 creates constant background noise. Several reviews mention that while the highway access is convenient, light sleepers may want to consider more secluded options. Campgrounds with playground facilities, hiking trails, and fishing access tend to receive better reviews than those focused primarily on overnight accommodation. For RV campers seeking full hookups, the developed campgrounds closer to Greensboro provide more amenities, while tent campers may prefer the more natural settings of the state parks in the region.

    Greensboro KOA

    Noisy- Ok for one night

    This campground is only 100 yards from the Interstate! Lots of road noise all night. Very noisy especially in a tent. The sites are large enough for most RVs. Adequate space between sites, and some grass. There are a few trees around the campground but not in the RV sites. Full hookups (30/50 amp) Pool, playground and camp store with basics. Shower and bathroom were clean.

    Cobble Hill RV Campground (Formerly) Carolina Rose

    good stop & stay

    campground being remodeled so bathhouses were a little walk away but not too inconvenient. pool was also closed for now BUT overall cute location. did park on site 59 (pull through) but was SUPER unlevel. cute pond and amphitheater too! has laundry as well.

    coolest part about this spot is that it’s about a 10 min drive into Catawba college town which was a super nice area for us being younger. perfect mix of Boulder & Philly :)

    hosts were SUPER friendly and nice :)

    Yogi Bear's Jellystone Park at Asheboro

    Great stay

    Campground has many things to do for the Littles. I would recommend renting the “off road” golf cart for fun. The only negative is the lack of bath houses. Although we have a full bathroom in our camper we typically use the showers at the campgrounds. There were only 2 bathhouses in the campground. Our site was well shaded and enough space between the sites.

    Tanglewood Park

    Shaded and clean

    No permanent sites so it's clean with no clutter, host greeted upon arrival, lots of access to hike/bike trails, near park with ponds, pool, ball courts. Several sites including mine very hard to level

    Brookhaven Mill Farm

    Quaint Site with Goats!

    I only needed to stay at this site for a few hours with my dog for dinner and a quick nap before heading on my way! The grass was a little overgrown which was just a little itchy but otherwise it was an amazing site, with a well maintained porta potty and cute animals on site!

    Meadows Of Dan Campground

    Mountain Quiet Campground

    We love this area already so as first time RVers, Meadows of Dan Campground was a natural pick. This campground has lovely tree cover in both the RV and tent camping areas. There are also cabins. The manager is very friendly & accommodating. We loved our first week so much we stayed two more!

    Black Dog Acres RV Park

    Clean, Easy, & Nice

    We stopped just for a night as we were traveling 74 south. It was just a little off the path (a few low trees on the route but nothing going slow and caulk won’t fix). Super easy pull through sites with convenient hookups. No bathrooms so did need to hook up water. Every body was super nice and friendly, 10/10 would stay again.

    Lake Reidsville Recreation Park

    A Hidden Gem in North Carolina

    Lake Reidsville Campground was a beautiful and peaceful escape from the daily hustle. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by serene water views, lush greenery, and the calming sounds of nature. The campground is well-maintained, and the lake itself is stunning — perfect for morning reflections or evening sunsets.

    The dock area was a favorite spot of mine — great for fishing, relaxing, or just soaking in the peaceful atmosphere. The photo I took captures how inviting and tranquil this place is. It’s clear the city takes pride in keeping the area clean and accessible.

    Whether you’re camping, kayaking, or simply looking for a quiet place to unwind, Lake Reidsville is absolutely worth a visit. I’m already planning to return.

    Dan Nicholas Park

    We will be back for sure

    Site next to one of the lake access trails. Spacious site. We were able to get our 37 ft camper level. Shaded so the a/c s were able to keep up with the heat no issue.
