Lake Reidsville Recreation Park

SUMMARY PRESENTED BY

Sitting on the edge of a city-managed lake in Reidsville, North Carolina, Lake Reidsville Recreation Park gives RV campers and tent campers direct access to the water without venturing far from town. The campground runs year-round and accommodates rigs up to 40 feet, with sites spread across lakefront positions, wooded edges, and internal loops. Site selection matters here. Reviewers consistently point to the eight lakefront sites (31, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, and 43) as the most sought-after spots, and note that interior loop sites offer little privacy. Site 44 sits immediately adjacent to the dump station, worth knowing before booking.

The lake is the main draw. Anglers, paddlers, and boaters make up a good portion of the visitor mix, and the dock area sees regular use for fishing and launching. Kayak, paddleboard, and paddleboat rentals are available seasonally. The campground also has a disc golf course, a playground, a small zip line, hiking trails, and a camp store. "The bathrooms/showers were clean," noted Lee D., though the same reviewer flagged that sink faucets run cold only. Swimming is not permitted in the lake.

Full hookups (electric, water, sewer) are available at select sites, with electric and water available across more of the campground. WiFi is on-site. Cell coverage on Verizon has been described as limited, so plan accordingly. Rates currently run $60 to $75 per night. Reservations are accepted, and staff have been described as friendly and responsive. Groceries are available about ten minutes away; larger stores require a trip toward Greensboro. Nearby alternatives include Haw River State Park Cabins to the southwest, for campers who want a more rustic setting.

Lake Reidsville works well for RV travelers wanting water access and full hookups close to a small city, as well as families who can make use of the on-site recreation without needing to drive anywhere.

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.

Affordable camping on the water

After freezing the night before, we decided we needed to get to a lower elevation and warm up. As soon as we had enough cell to check The Dyrt, we found this campground and called to inquire about one-night availability on a Wednesday in later October. Amanda was very friendly and accommodating and we secured a water site with water and electric for $28.

Different sites accommodate different length rigs ranging from 25’ to 40’. All sites have electric hookups, and some have sewer hookups as well. Since we arrived after the store closed, we paid the next morning.

The bathrooms/showers were clean. Didn’t use the shower so cannot comment on that. Sink faucets only had cold water but there was a diaper changing station and paper towels.

As far as activities, there is Disc golf, fishing, and boating. Boat rentals are available through the end of October, but it was a bit too chilly to consider doing this! There is a playground and a small zip line. There are also some hiking trails, but we did not explore them. There is a small camp store. There was surprisingly limited cell on Verizon.

The most desirable sites would be along the water (sites 31, 32, 34, 36, 38, 40, 42, 43), but I would imagine that on a summer weekend, these would be challenging to secure. Second best would be the wooded sites (10, 19, 20). Least desirable would be the sites in the internal loops as these have little to no privacy. Note that site 44 is right next to the dump station. There are also some monthly rental sites.

This worked well for an overnight stay as we continued on down the road.

October Camping

I've stayed at this park many times but it has been a few years and this is my first visit since joining Dyrt. The park is nice and clean. The bathhouse was well kept. The staff had decorations throughout the park for Halloween which is something I dont remember them doing in the past. There is a nice playground for the kids. Beautiful sun rise over the lake.

Nice

We stayed here in the winter months (Feb - April) and it was really nice. Nearest town for groceries is 10 min away but you'll have to travel to Greensboro for bigger stores. Lake is peaceful and provides beautiful sunsets. Office staff is friendly.

Very peaceful

We've stayed at Reidsville Lake Campground twice this year so far. There are eight lakefront sites. The sites closer to the water are provided with power and water. The sites near the entrance have power, water and sewer hookup. Starting in July 2019 the campground will also have WiFi.

We love going camping here. You can rent paddle boats or kayak's or paddle boards. You may fish or rude boats. The only down fall is the bath house needs updating and you can't swim.
