Just 30 miles north of Winston-Salem, Hanging Rock State Park is located in the Sauratown Mountain Range. Named for the early Saura peoples who once inhabited the area, this range towers over the surrounding country, with peaks reaching nearly 2600 feet in elevation. The park derives its name from the large quartzite escarpment that “hangs” over the valley below. Established in 1936, the park initially encompassed 3100 acres, but has grown to 7900 acres since 2015. With its proximity to the suburban areas of Stokes County, the park serves as a backyard playground for hikers, mountain bikers, equestrians, rock climbers, paddlers, anglers and campers. The 73-site campground in Hanging Rock State Park is an ideal basecamp for enjoying all the outdoor activities the park has to offer. Campsites can accommodate tents, popups and limited RVs; there are no hookups or dump stations at this location. Each site is equipped with picnic tables, grills and tent pads. Drinking water is available at several locations in the campground, and there are two bathhouses with hot showers. There are also five primitive group campsites with picnic tables and fire circles; drinking water and vault toilets are available nearby. If you don’t feel like roughing it, the park also offers 10 vacation cabins. Each of these are equipped with a kitchen, bathroom and sleeping accommodations for up to six. When you’re ready to play, there are more than 20 miles of multiuse trails in Hanging Rock State Park for hiking, biking and riding. Trails vary in length and difficulty, so drop by the visitor center and pick up a trail map. For the mobility impaired, there is a 0.1-mile path to the Rock Garden. Anglers can enjoy casting for bass, sunfish, and catfish either by boat or wading on the park’s small lake. Canoe and rowboat rentals are available for paddling on the lake, or you can bring your own gear for paddling or fishing on the Dan River. Rock climbing is permitted on the 400-foot-high Cook’s Wall and Moore’s Wall. For just kicking it under the trees, the park has several picnic areas, as well as an exhibit hall and concession stand.

I stayed on the “not great for kids” side. Camp host said the other part of the park was better for families and had easier trail inclines. I loved my spot. It was quieter than I expected given how close the camp sites were to each other.

Dyrt says $40-$42. Price now is $56. Decent place. Easy on off off IH77. Prefer this to most KOA’s for value. Nice, tree filled sites, clean and well lighted shower rooms, rural setting, but near a city. Definitely would recommend.
Traveler
The campground, paths, and bathrooms were very clean. Beautiful views at Rock Falls. If we didn't have our dogs with us we would have done hikes longer than 4 miles.
Guide
Saw $44 per night on website. Was charged $54 when I showed up.
Ranger
Our favorite KOA yet. Beautiful campground, nestled into forest with pines, deciduous trees, and native Rhododendron. Beautiful. Clean sites and facilities. Just off 77 not far from Roanoke. Would stay here again!
ScoutBusy but we spent a very quiet night and woke up to local livestock out the window. Glad we tried it!
Got propane and had easy access to highway in the morning.
Will be back
ScoutImpressive small campground with clean and well appointed sites. The elevated fire pits are level and easy to use for cooking or just a campfire. Bathrooms are clean and functional. Personal highlights was the view in late fall and the close proximity to the hiking trails up Pilot Mtn. Tent pad was level and large. Good bouldering and climbing Parking at Sites 23,25,26 is pretty level for a truck or camper van
Traveler
We love coming to Lake Reidsville. We have tent camped many times there and now have been with a camper. It was peaceful and the view is always amazing.
Traveler
We loved our stay.
TravelerThis campground is well-maintained and in a beautiful location.It’s a pretty clean place with a friendly and personable staff.
Scout
Nice and clean area as far as tent camping, beautiful area all and all. Would return for sure.
TravelerFirst time visiting and camping, really enjoyed how clean and quiet the campground was. Campsite itself was perfect, close to hiking and easily accessible. Definitely will return!
ScoutPros, It’s a beautiful place. Easy access to car, good space for tents. Flat tent pads, great shade, super clean facilities. The host is absolutely amazing. Great.
Cons, not great around our fire pit, you can’t really sit around the fire pit because it’s not leveled, chars just fall. Not great if you don’t get a level spot if you have small children. It’s very rocky and small children will fall often. Not fun as a parent. A big con if you absolutely cannot deal with spiders. Ok. So this one might be a bit dramatic to some, however, if you don’t love bugs, be warned that there are hundreds of daddy long legs, just so so so many. And they get everywhere. We don’t mind bugs. We understand camping in tents will be bug heaven. We just didn’t expect to see hundreds. You have been warned. Site 14
LegendNice campground, no electric or water at the sites. Rocky, shaded sites, with nice bathrooms and showers.
Only stayed for one night, but will come back here when I have some more time.

Overnight stop on our trip south. We got in early enough that we were able to get a game of bowling in before they closed. The pizza was good too. We had a nice pull through.
TravelerAs far as the sites goes, ours was okay, but a lot of the sights were not level. All the sites to the left of the pond had the tongue on the ground and the rear jacks had pretty extreme crib blocks just to get the jacks to stabilize. The landscaping was not very well taken care of and the sites really need gravel. It was a muddy mess when it rained. On a positive note each site had a concrete pad.
The pool was extremely cold and had a lot of algae around the rim, but it does have the slide which my daughter enjoyed. The bowling alley had I think 6 lanes and it was pretty good. The putt putt golf is in rough shape so we didn’t even do it.
The staff that I dealt with were definitely odd. They weren't friendly at all, but rather very straight forward and weird. Altogether, I won’t stay here again. I will try on up the road at Fancy Gap or Mayberry on our travels through 77/74.
TravelerI typically steer clear of KOA's because most of the sites are super close together. This KOA is different! There is a row towards the front that are pretty close together, but I think they use those for one-nighters. We were in a tent and loved our spot. The staff was UNBELIEVABLY awesome and nice. They have a pool, a pond, a playground, a dog park, and a great camp store. The bathrooms and laundry room are exceptionally clean. If you order ice or firewood, they bring it to your site. They also have food you can order and they will bring it to your site. I am sure there are many things I am forgetting, but this is a must stay and we will be back.

We have been happy members of Thousand Trails for several years and have created several friend groups of whom I hope would verify my claim as accurate. My husband, Paul(OP), has always had the heart of a servant and has helped many throughout Lake Myers and Forest Lake. He enjoys playing cork hole and building campfires. We have so many wonderful friends at the campgrounds that we hang out with even when we don’t have our camper in. It has always been a source of stress relief and relaxation for us. We have never been ones to instigate gossip or spread it. We sit quietly to ourselves or with friends, play corn hole and enjoy the fire, food& friendships. Our dog LOVES to exercise on the golf cart trails! Last YEAR, one of the teen boys that lives in the campground full time came to our site and invited our 16 y/o(at the time) son to join him and a gang of other kids that found a villa unlocked. The private investigator we hired found out that the number of kids involved goes into the double digits. We advised Susan, the manager, of the identity of as many involved as we could. Our son was not involved in the actual damage and nothing further was said to us by Susan or any other representative of Lake Myers, Thousand Trails or Encore. Charges were attempted against our son alone, but when our attorney advised that all kids involved or none(some parents had already paid restitution… I offered but was not responded to) were to be charged then charges were dropped. We have been camping every 2 weeks in and one week out at Forest Lake with no problems at all until recently when my husband couldn’t get logged into our account to make his payment. I tried as well and couldn’t get logged in. Turns out that our entire national membership has been canceled by the Lake Myers manager with the reasoning of“unsupervised child”. That is totally falsified. How many of you see Mon or Dad following their older kids around? Our son had never cause any trouble. Funny, the kid that lives there who coaxed our son to the villas still lives there on site because his mom works for a prominent attorney that I guess Lake Myers is afraid of.(Well, mine is good too!) Ban our son from Lake Myers? Fine… but ban all the ones involved, don’t do it out of retaliation against us because you lack evidence. Want to ban our whole innocent family from Lake Myers? Fine… but ban all the families of those involved. If your going to accept money of one mom to let her stay because she works for an attorney, then the offer needs to be given to all. But why cancel our whole family national membership? THAT is excessive and we will be filing a lawsuit if it’s not fixed asap. We just bought a brand spanking new camper, new golf cart, paid membership fees(I want refunded if our membership is not going to be honored due to a dishonorable and unethical manager with no factual evidence and can apparently be paid off). Seriously! Existing campers can’t complain publicly about anything at the campground without the fear of their memberships being terminated for it. This is morally wrong. I have contacted membership services just to be told they can’t do anything. I call BS. This needs a fair resolution immediately.
LegendAwesome place! Campgrounds were nice and spaced out, well maintained...we were right by a small stream that you could hear...stone loop mountain trail is incredible! Long and strenuous but all ages were hiking it...homestead was so neat to walk around at the base of the mountain. Only negative is there showers. Very frustrating....you have to push the shower head to get water...great way to conserve but it gave you no time to enjoy the water. Made it hard to shower and it came out blasting all over the place....only complaint :)
RangerThere are a lot of good things to say about this campground and one negative. We stayed in a camper cabin to break up a long drive and the mattress was so thin that we could easily feel the metal frame through the "mattress" (really a thin pallet--hence the 3 stars, rather than 5). This KOA really needs to upgrade their mattresses, especially if they're charging such a high price for a cabin without a bathroom. Now onto the good stuff: it's a clean campground with a nice pool area and good camp store. The bowling alley was great and the on-site cafe has really good pizza. Tent campers have good options: I liked the 3 sites near the camp store because they were grassy and roomy enough for both tent and canopy. Other tent sites at the back of the campground were smaller, level, and had gravel pads. RV sites to either side of the fishing pond were mostly level and looked easier to navigate than the ones at the back of the campground; however, RV sites at the back had more shade. Had the bed been comfortable, I would have given this place 5 stars. I would be happy to return again (but this time as a tent camper).
GuideCool mountain breeze and cold water…wonderful visit and close to BRPkwy and Mt Airy
TravelerWe had a good experience overall at this campground. The people were friendly and the staff was accommodating. Definitely not the campground to book if you are looking to enjoy the surroundings/scenery as things are very packed in. Close enough to Winston-Salem to do day trips though.
ScoutThis was a nice, standard campground with a trail to the top of the mountain right in the campground loop. Bathrooms could use a good scrub, and the water took a good 5+ minutes to heat up. Overall a nice weekend trip location.
Guide
Spent a month here. Had a nice end spot that allowed for a sneak peak of the mountains. Nicely laid out in levels that were nice. Great location for checking out the area too. Wifi worked fine. As did the cable.
ScoutLove the putt putt and kids playground area.
GuideThis campground is probably 90% big rigs. It’s a huge campground with 2 lakes, playground, RV store and shelter houses. There is only one shower house with one shower and two toilets on each side. Pet friendly on leash. Close to Mount Airy for those over 60 who want a trip down Memory Lane.
GuideGreat trails, and lots to do. Climbing up Stone Mountain was fun.
