You can fish in the lake right from your campsite. We caught a couple of huge catfish! Though the park facilities are starting to show some wear(bathrooms and showers), the spacious camping sites are in great condition and offer excellent lake or forest views. This we stayed on Site 114 on the Sugar Ridge Camping loop. Our site 114 was nice, but sites on Campground 2 and 3 offer better lake views, especially site 51. The marina offers boat rentals and a small store for supplies. Very inexpensive to rent a canoe and explore the lake. 

The only drawback of this park is that campers are allowed to run generators from 6AM to 10PM and camper's dogs are left unattended to bark all day. Quite noisy at times!

My friend and i went here and we had the best time. Great staff and great views. Cant wait to go back again.

Awesome time here!

It’s out of the way but the roads are good and it’s worth the trip. Huge sites, nice bathrooms, hot water, beautiful lake.

I stayed here for 1 night. It was the perfect resting stop on my road trip to the Smoky Mountains. I stayed on campground 1 on a lake side site with access to the lake, the views from my tent were breathtaking! The campground is clean, it has shower and flushable toilets. The camp host sells firewood. The campground is quiet and provides a lot of privacy. The lake beach is within walking distance from campground 1, with picnic tables and a pavilion. There is also a small dock where you can fish. Loves this place, will definitely come back.

the water felt great it was a perfect 74 degrees weather

Set on a gorgeous lake, hiking trails, a nice clean beach for swimming. This place is perfect for a camping trip for th family. We stayed in campground 2, which had more privacy than the other campground loops. The sites were wooded and spacious, close to the other sites yet far enough apart with wooded separation to provide an element of privacy. Plus, it was about 15 degrees cooler on a 100 degree weekend at our home only 2 hours away.

my husband and I came for a day just to check it out. we actually stayed in the rv part, but the host was a really sweet older gentleman and he wanted to make sure we got the best view, we went in the beginning of June and it was kind cold that night, we had a fun time and will be back soon.

We’ve camped here for the second time. The campground Bolar Mountain Rec Area is on Lake Moomaw. We had the pleasure of having a campsite with lake view and access both times. Campground 2 site 53, has a nice private beach area where you can go fishing or swim. Bring water shoes, the rocks can be sharp. The campsite was spacious and shaded, they do offer doubles for larger groups. The bathrooms are flush toilets and have a shower. We like going during the week in the summer, it can get busy on the lake on weekends. Other than that it is quiet and we’ve never had a noise problem. There’s hiking, fishing and a beach. The marina has a store if you forgot something. Each campground has a host and they have firewood for sale, so bring cash.

Spent a relaxing long weekend at Lake Moomaw's Bolar Mountain Campground. Our camp hosts were friendly and very helpful. The views were amazing and beautiful. I can't wait to go back again, we loved it.
