Over-Priced Parking lot !
I have stayed there twice over the past couple years. The only changes to this Campground are the Prices !! ..which keep going up (to $35 day now). For this, you get a parking space with full hookups.. that's it, no Amenities whatsoever!
It's pretty much a "Camper Trap", because there are so few options in the North Carolina Piedmont. Spaces are tight, a lot of the people there are long-term workers, that totally ignore any "Dust" decorum, speeding through the area as if they were on public streets!
Weekend in Raleigh
Level campground with full hookups. Worked great to explore Raleigh.
Downtown Raleigh
Easy in and easy out. Diagonal spots, evenly spaced, not too crowded.
