The campground is great. Reservation, reservation edition, and check-in are simple, and communication is very responsive. The campground is clean, and the sound of the river is the best white noise that can be. There is fire wood at the camp (to buy), which is convenient. The hiking trails and the proximity to the city are best combination. The price is fair. The spots for tents/fire/BBQ are super convenient. The showers are awesome. Definitely coming agin.
Very nice and semiprivate campsites. Primitive to hookups available. Primitive sites could use smaller gravel for beds, bring a yoga mat to put down. Sites are well maintained.
Sites are uncomfortably close to each other, too small and didn't feel safe as a solo female. They don't check camper identification at check in which made me feel uncomfortable after some odd behavior from the camper at the site next to me. The rangers were very nice and said they thought they had the situation under control. Just didn't feel very safe and it's more of a camp spot in the middle of a subdivision type situation. Not really a true wilderness campground. I chose a campground because I was camping solo but in retrospect I probably would have felt safer and more comfortable off by myself in the national forest.
Absolutely beautiful and epic campgrounds! One of the greatest campsites available in WNC, cannot recommend enough!
Great facilities, would highly recommend trying to get a site next to the creek as it's the perfect white noise machine. Definitely keep all your food locked up in the car as the black bears, though peaceful, are very active this year...one of their main food sources is acorns and we had a very small amount this year so they are coming off the mountains looking for food.
We love it here! Have been visiting almost every year since I was a kid... and now bringing our kids.
