Awesome spot for families and multiple night stays. Family environment comes with more noise but as long as you are expecting it you won’t be disappointed.

My wife and I stayed here with our 2 daughters. The campsite was spacious, flat and shaded. There was plenty to do for the kids for the weekend. The bath house was very nice and clean. The camp host drove his golf cart around selling firewood. Will definitely return
Traveler
I was there alone and had the whole campsite to myself. The camp host was so kind. He always made sure me, my horses and my grandson were comfortable and safe!

Six points @ Raven Micro Farm LLC is a fully loaded Glamping site. Equip with a Bell tent, thick Japanese cotton sleeping mat, linens, full-size propane grill, cookware, utensils, dishware, and more.
This is a walk-in site, bring your hiking boots. The property is slightly hilly.
Be advised that the site is private excluding when we are out doing farm chores or as the animals are rotated.

I found my happy place here at Hippie Holler! No kids or loud obnoxious other campers, felt at home, safe,understood and able to relax completely. Hidden Gem for the neurodivergants and chill seekers. Cool solar lights made it trippy ful lol
Guidestayed here for 3 nights.my spot was in the woods tight spot for 42 ft trailer and no area next to the camper to sit unless you want to fall back from the steep grade .
lake was very pretty and very busy . if you don't own a boat there is not much to do. I. thought it was very noisy and crowded.
TravelerVery quiet and beautiful campground

This may be the best campground I have visited. Very quiet and the views are amazing!
GuideIt’s the quietest stay we’ve had yet, and we go camping nearly every weekend. I will say, having the ADA tent site makes a huge difference. The regular tent “loop” is just one big open field with few trees around it, so there’s absolutely no privacy. If you end up with someone who want to be rowdy, you are in for a long night.
The gates close at 5pm during the fall/winter. Slightly around that time, the retired police chief came around to introduce himself and give me his cell number. He is just up the street and was kind to offer this for extra safety.
No showers, which we didn’t know until after we got here, saw the one bathroom, and realized there was not a shower. There is an outdoor shower.
The water at our site is not working which is a bummer but we can use the water at the outside shower. It’s non-potable but we have a filter and boil it before using it.
It’s nice to have a little store (in the office) to grab bait, snacks, or other goodies.
ScoutWe made a reservation well in advance but the owner decided to cancel our confirmed reservation to accommodate a previous renter who decided to stay longer. THANK YOU YATES FAMILY! Obviously there was no consideration if we were left without a place to stay. Did they offer help finding another campground, NO. Did they offer to compensate us, NO.

We stayed 3 nights in a 31' travel trailer at site 80. Staff at counter was very friendly and provided all the information needed. Site was level side to side and paved with asphalt only wide enough for the camper. The hookups were standard location and heights no issues. Our steps come out to a large level dirt pad, not grass. Lots of trees providing shade which is nice. It had started raining after setup and the dirt quickly became mud. The bathhouse is close and clean, all tile. I wish there were curtains separating shower from dress area though. The shuttle to Carowinds was frequent and convenient. All in all, the campground was nice, we would stay again.
ScoutNice campground close to Carowinds... Quiet and family friendly. Stayed there a couple of times. Pull thru sites are mostly shaded.
TravelerWe recently returned from 5 days tent camping at Cheraw. We chose site #8 that was directly on the lake and offered electricity and water. These sites are obviously designed for RV’s with little or no space for tent campers. Although there is a designated tent area, it is back in the woods and not lakefront.
The minimal room we had was fortunately on the lake shore with wonderful shade trees. The space was not level and contained some unfriendly exposed tree roots. Fortunately we had an inflatable air bed and the roots weren’t much of a problem.
Lake Juniper is quite small and swimming is allowed in a designated area on the far side of the lake. We had inflatable rafts and tied our floats to a tree in front of our site , highly aware that a spillway not too far from our site would prove quite dangerous if one went too close then pulled over.
The small office on the opposite side of the lake offers ice and wood as well as ice cream, candy etc to satisfy any junk food craving. 10 minutes from the park is an IGA. It offers the basics and a little further out is a Walmart with groceries.
The bathhouse is currently “ under construction” although we saw no work being done during our stay. One half of the bathhouse had been designated unisex with three locking stalls and curtained showers. There is an interior lock if you choose to have the entire bathhouse all to yourself. I grew up in a family of eight and have no problem sharing a bathroom. The bathhouse has obviously seen a great deal of traffic, is quite dated and poorly ventilated. Hopefully the bathhouse will receive its update soon.
The campground host was quite helpful and an all around nice guy. We chatted a bit and he has a very interesting background.
We would return to Cheraw and confidently reserve #7 or #8 for tents. There are most likely other suitable sites there that escaped my notice.

While at Uwaharrie NF stayed at Biden Lake campground. Beautiful place with great views. Clean facilities close to sites.
ScoutOlder campground lots of shade. staff very friendly and helpful. We were really surprised with how much has been invested in Carowinds over the years by Cedar Fair that the campground has been untouched. Bathrooms/bathhouses were very clean and seem to be the one part of the campground that has been updated. One section of the campground has been turned into long term camping and many looked like they had been there for years. campground was quiet other than noise from air traffic as airport is nearby but it was minor. Campsites have decent space in between each other which is great bc the sites are small in length and you will be parking either beside the rig or sideways in front of it. We stayed in a back-in site and most back-in sites seemed rather level but pull throughs were hit or miss on that aspect. If you are staying here to go to the park then it is very convenient and has an excellent shuttle that runs frequently and drops you off near the front gate. Very small camp store that has most of the basics. Campground overall is clean, safe and secure but we expected a little more from theme park campground. We live nearby and are pass holders at Carowinds so we will likely stay frequently due to the convenience.
GuideWe live nearby and decided to go on a whim. Smaller sites but clean and friendly staff. The pond was fun to kayak.
GuideWe live nearby so this is a nice little place to camp at. Nice sites, close to places to eat. Bathhouse was clean and well kept. We went around Halloween and they had trick-or-treating around the park as well as prizes for the best decorated.
TravelerWe stayed at site 76, loop C. Spacious site! We were able to fit 2 tents. Not far from bathrooms. Bathrooms are clean. Water spigot close by, the pressure is high so slowly lift the handle haha. The sites are not too close together. Lots of hiking nearby. Beautiful area! Highly recommend.
GuideMy husband and I stayed a night. The sites are tight but there's shade and since we have to be close to the Charlotte airport it was perfect. Far enough not to have super loud plane noise but a very easy drive.
TravelerVery clean campground golf cart friendly. Nice round pier with swings and playground for the kids
ScoutCheraw state Park was an overall good camping experience. We stayed in the tent camping area, which was well kept. My only complaint is that the sites are somewhat close together, but it's not a huge deal. Park is well kept and the sights are worth seeing. Plenty of trails to walk down, with a boardwalk that covers the side of lake juniper.
RangerStopped on our way back from Florida. Lots a little uneven, but it's a small price to pay for lakefront sites with water and electric. The campground host was very helpful too. Mountain biking and fishing was a blast
