Do NOT follow your GPS. Make sure to use the directions from the reservation site. Campground is tight & has no water (took 105 gallons & it was more than enough for my 2 horses) but we had a great time, our group was the only horse campers the rest were non horse patrons. The trail was difficult to find, not marked well, but didn’t see anything dangerous/treacherous not even the river crossing was bad on the trail we rode, so don’t let that scare you away because these reviews had me nervous, a truck could drive half of what we rode, but don’t know which trail we rode either since there’s no signage. Would have liked to seen the other trails other posters are speaking of. Agree with others, lots of mtn bike traffic, there was a 200+ bike race when we went and our horses were bike broke by the end of the weekend. Most were polite & of course yielded to us. Scenery was beautiful, wish we knew our way around so we could have checked out the trails better. I agree the forest service needs to do a better job of marking the trails and NCDOT needs to put a SIGN on the road heading up the mtn on the east side, that’s says NO TRAILERS because it was INSANE and once you’re in it there’s no turning back for like 8miles of sharp curves, one lane road & bridges, better hope you’re a solid driver. All in all it was worth the trip, just map your route to camp, & get a trail map app or something before you go. Phone signal was shotty but typical of being in the mountains.
