Super family friendly

Lots of activities and amenities geared towards kids and families.

Site was level, we had a pull through.

It’s fairly close to town and to good hiking so it’s a good location.

Verizon service was okay but not great. We were able to work off of our hotspot but occasionally had issues.

Great thousand trails park!

Staff is super friendly! She worked with us with a wonky schedule and answered all of our questions. They have Saturday night communal bonfires, but we didn’t go check that out.

Nearby Colonial Beach is a cute area that has nice waterfront access. We also loved going to Westmoreland park which was practically next door to Harbor View. Great trails and fossil beach was fun.

Site was spacious, level and shady. The site next to ours had perfect hammock trees too!

We travelled in our 33 ft tt. I work full-time remote and the Verizon service was perfect with our hotspot.

Only even slightly negative thing to say - If you have allergies, avoid spring. EVERYTHING outside was covered in a light haze of pollen. I worked outside several days and had to wipe my computer off a couple times a day. Nothing to be done for it, but thought I’d mention it. Luckily neither of us have super bad allergies.

We will absolutely be back!

Packed but quiet off season

We had a nice time visiting Mocksville. There are a lot of cute restaurants near by.

We stayed here as part of our thousand trails membership.

The campground is mostly annual people with permanent lots. We don’t mind that at all. Those types always seem to be laid back and quiet. The spots are really close together. And the roads are sooo narrow.

The dog park was nice and walking the park was relaxing.

Unfortunately a lot of the activity type things (arcade, mini-golf, horseshoes, etc) weren’t available because we visited in the off season. Bummer but to be expected even though we had super nice weather.

Not really the campgrounds fault I don’t think, but there were SO MANY FLIES. I spent the weeks killing the ones that snuck in. So annoying.

We visited with our 33’ travel trailer. Site D64 is plenty long but has the y of the road surrounding you. Verizon service has 2 bars. Occasionally got a little spotty while working, but our hotspot worked enough. Streaming did get dicey.

Awesome Location right outside the park

We are traveling in our 33 ft travel trailer. We work full time remotely and use our hotspot to do so. The Verizon service in the rv section of the campground is very poor and we were not able to use the hotspot. The service is better higher up in the campground. The campground does offer wifi (paid) that was fast enough for me to work and do video calls. They kindly offered us vouchers for a couple of days as well.

The campground is super cute. The pool and hot tub area is gorgeous. They have a coffee lounge with communal board games which is cute. The bathrooms and laundry room are clean and very nice. Our dog also loved their dog park.

Their check in system was perfect for our late check in.

We visited in the winter and it was cold enough that they had us turn our water off every night at 6 which was inconvenient but not a real problem considering how nice the showers are.

We stayed in spot A1 which felt a little small because it butts right up to a yurt, but it was enough space for us. Especially considering how cold it was, we didn’t spend much time on the patio.

Close to Savannah - Awesome Park

We loved our stay here! The sites are spacious and site 19 has extra space because it’s on the end.

The campground is quiet and everything is well taken care of. We enjoyed visiting the horses and goats. The trails around the lakes were our dogs favorite thing. ( ALL the sniffs!)

The staff in the office was very nice and was able to accommodate our early check in. They are very knowledgeable about tourist stops.

We did laundry once. They have two washers and two dryers. Both newish and worked great.

We visited in our 33’ travel trailer in January. Verizon service is great - we worked from our hotspot the whole trip.

Small but Great Views

The campground is small and quiet. The sites are VERY close together. That’s probably the only thing I don’t like about this campground. It’s a little, out of the way, quiet spot to enjoy some incredible views.

The staff has been super friendly. The little pier is nice. Their office/bait shop also stocks a cooler with different beers, seltzers and ciders. I was impressed with the selection. We grabbed a couple and enjoyed them on the “tiki deck”.

We work remotely during the week and the Verizon signal so far has been fine. They have wifi, but we opted not to pay for it unless we have issues with work. It’s $10 for 1 device for 7 days, but I couldn’t tell you how fast it is.

We are in a 33 ft tow behind travel trailer and we have plenty of length to our spot, but it was a tight squeeze to park in between a palm tree and the site line stake. There are plenty of bigger rigs in here, but I’d suggest preparing yourself for multi point turns to navigate the park.

Great Amenities - Quiet off season

We camped here in our 34 travel trailer. We both work from home on hot spots and our Verizon connection was great.

The place is VERY quiet in the off season. We didn’t have any neighbors in the surrounding spots.

The pool area looks super nice, but it was a little to chilly for us to spend any time in the pool. The hot tub however was a great way to end our work days! There are plenty of showers and two laundry rooms. Both are very nice and clean. There’s a small arcade which was fun too.

Check in was super easy. We were very late and they accommodated us. The staff is polite and friendly.

The site is great. Concrete pad makes for super quick and easy leveling set up. There’s a fire pit and picnic table. The spots next to us are “premium” so they have a little pavilion over their table.

The dog park is small and definitely geared towards smaller dogs. It has a cute agility type course set up. Our GSD felt a little to big for the dog park, but we made it work.

KOA - Monthly Stay

Camping in a 33 ft travel trailer with slides. Verizon service is great. Wifi in extended parking doesn’t work well. The staff are helpful and polite. We are in the extended stay part of the campground which is quiet and slightly more secluded than the other spots.
