"Big campground on a lake. Campsites are mostly level, are various sizes and offer various amounts of screening between sites. Look at the photos."
LegendWe spent one night here on our way north. We arrived late and left early. Staff was great met us at the gate and escorted us to our site. Mostly long term renters. Site were a good size and we had a pull through site and never had to unhook the Jeep. Full hook ups.
LegendThis is a thousand trails RV resort. the road to the campground is fine. The campground is an older one and bigger rigs will find it a bit of a challenge to get into areas, especially the area where there is just water and electric. That is another issue, most of the park is water and electric. Lucky for us we usually come into this park early in the season or latter.
There is an area near the lake that has pull thru sites with WES setups 200 to 323 ( some small cabins and tiny houses are included in this number set ), I believe there is 31 total, all 50 amp, 22 are pull thru.
The camp sites from #1 thru 174 are 30 and 50 amp setups and the area is tight to maneuver thru you are definitely going to work at getting bigger rigs in and also, leveling is a bit challenging in some spots. But 90% are in partial shaded areas making it a comfortable feel once settled in.
Our ATT and T-Mobile hotspots worked as did the cell service ok. Most of the amenities were closed as it was early in the season. I will say, the laundry is small for this big of a campground. They were also doing work on the office but that is supposed to be completed soon. All in all, the views of the Lake are spectacular and there is plenty to see and do during the peak season for families.
They have a separate dump station as well as a dumpster area as you first enter the park.
LegendThe name of the park is deceiving because it is not in the mountains, but it has beauty in its meandering streams and trails. The campsites have gravel tent pads, and tents must be set up on them. The gravel on the site where I stayed was deeper than my tent stakes were long, and I could not get a good hold. I was trying out a newly required tent, which was not freestanding, so it was frustrating. My advice is to make sure you take a tent that IS freestanding. Deep gravel tent pads and non-freestanding tents do not go together. The tent site was large, had a fire ring, and a lantern pole, but the pad itself was NOT level. I had to move the picnic table so I could set up my tent on the only level spot I could find. Something you have to be careful about is poison ivy. There was poison ivy all around the perimeter of my campsite. The bathroom facilities were surprisingly modern and had spacious showers with hot water. As far as I know, there are no electrical, sewer, or water hookups, but there is a dump station. There is a mixture of pull-through sites and back in sites for RVs. There are plenty of trails to explore, and plenty of fishing holes. The Bluff Loop Trail leads from the campground and along Fishing Creek. To see Medoc “mountain,” you have to hike quite a distance, or you can drive to the park office down the road and hike from there. Cross the road to the Bear Swamp Trail, get on the Saponi Loop (which is also a bicycle trail), and then head to the Summit Loop Trail. There are several miles of bicycle trails as well as hiking trails, and some of them are one way only, meaning that hikers are required to hike in one direction and bicycles go in another direction. Even though this is in the Coastal Plain, the Bluff Loop Trail will take you by a couple of sections of whitewater. They are small, but if you like a (mostly) easy hike through the forest, this trail is a good one. There are no swimming pools or playgrounds, but if you want to just enjoy nature, there are hiking, biking, and fishing opportunities.
LegendWe spent one night here in April. It was great!
There are some pretty easy hiking trails, great for kids. Really beautiful wooded area. The campground was everything you could ask for! Large, level sites that are very secluded and far apart from each other. Bathrooms were clean and well situated. Very family-friendly!
We want to come back soon!
TravelerWe stayed in Henderson Point Campground, loop 2, site 68 in late August. 30 amp hookup, drinking water hookup was easily accessible (no need for a super long hose), no sewer hookups. The site was a back in and pretty level with only a slight decline as you move toward the rear. The view was absolutely gorgeous. East facing, the semi private beach was easily accessible and only maybe 50ft from the site. From what I could tell the campground was booked that weekend but you could barely hear any noise from your neighbors. The only complaints would be that the bathrooms are kind of far from this site (I never actually went but imagine a good 5 minute walk) and the dump station is about a mile away. Neither of these would keep us from returning; we can hardly wait to go back to this campground.
TravelerThe site is directly on the lake. Mere steps from your door. Beautiful view on the adjacent shoreline and bridge. Rocky shoreline. Easy to back in. I only have 2 complaints. The proximity of neighbors. The only thing separating you from site 24 is the tent pad. And the site length listed is a little misleading. It says 40 feet which I assume is true. But we fit our 27 foot travel trailer in there and had a really hard time wedging our tow vehicle (F250) in there. Parked at an odd angle on the tent pad. Wouldn’t choose this site again but definitely recommend for a smaller trailer.
GuideThe North Carolina State Park campgrounds are typically very nice, and this one is no exception. My site is adjacent to a large, clean, working bathhouse and a 2 minute walk from a swim beach.
My cell reception outside the camper is excellent, and of if I had a cell booster it would be adequate for streaming inside the camper. I don’t have one as I depend on Starlink for internet access when traveling. Unfortunately Starlink isn’t going to work in my specific site or in most of the others. This is a wooded campground and all the sites are completely shaded
My site has water and electric. About half of the available RV sites have water and electric, it there is no sewer. There is a dump station in the campground. Unusual for NC State facilities, there are no trash bins placed around the campground, but there is a large dumpster station co-located with the dump station.
It’s about a 15-20 minute drive to shopping, but there are several convenience stores a few minutes away.
The campground is clean and well maintained. It meanders around a very large lake, with several beaches and boat launch areas.
GuideWe camped here during Thanksgiving. It's a county run campground so the employees were off during Thanksgiving so they gave us a key to the gate if we needed to leave when no-one was there. The campground is primarily designed for small campers but there are a few spots that would accommodate campers in the 40 foot range. Three are two loops, one for RVs and one for tent campers. The loop for RVs has a one way curvy road to the loop. The bathhouse isn't in the loop it is at the top of the hill. The site that is closest to the bathhouse is site 27 and it will accommodate large campers. The dump station isn't near the RV loop it is near the tent loop.
LegendWe absolutely love this area! There are tons of hiking trails all around and plenty of bike trails too! Conveniently located north of Raleigh, NC and close to many major highways. There are tons of beach areas and places to enjoy the great outdoors. Picnic areas too!
