I stayed here with my 2 small dogs for an overnight. There was bagged trash by the receptacle, but hadn’t been picked up in a while. Not great but good for a free night. It did have a covered pavilion with a picnic table and a fire ring. Quiet. Had the place to myself.

Mid week stop for our 36 ft fifth wheel. We were nervous pulling in right at sunset but got lucky someone was pulling out. It too tight for anything much larger but we managed to turn around with help from the one small truck camper who was kind enough to move his car so we could manage.

Mid week stop for our 36 ft fifth wheel. We were nervous pulling in right at sunset but got lucky someone was pulling out. It too tight for anything much larger but we managed to turn around with help from the one small truck camper who was kind enough to move his car so we could manage. Woke up to a beautiful private view of the pond and totally worth the small paved road to get here. If you’re thinking about stopping here definitely do it. The way out for us was on a nation scenic bypass and was so pretty.no cell service but starlink sure worked!

Initially this was hard to find because you can't see the site from the road. My husband backed in our 34 ft. trailer. It was a bit of a challenge, but he managed. There's probably enough room here for two smaller campers. In the seven days we were here, there was at least one other camper per night (van, bike, car). It is pretty here,... more
Initially this was hard to find because you can't see the site from the road. My husband backed in our 34 ft. trailer. It was a bit of a challenge, but he managed. There's probably enough room here for two smaller campers. In the seven days we were here, there was at least one other camper per night (van, bike, car). It is pretty here, and the pond is larger than expected. There is a trail, which was a bit overgrown, but our dogs appreciated the exercise. There's also a pavilion with four picnic tables and a fire pit. Lots of fishermen have been coming and catching bass and catfish. There is a boat launch too. This site requires miles of gravel roads.

Camping next to a large pond surrounded by woodlands and no one but us. If we weren’t traveling, it would have been nice to stay here for a few days of peace and quiet.

Arrived on a Saturday evening and I had the place to myself. There is a trash can, picnic tables, and a fire ring. This place is immaculate and the grass was recently cut.

Common sense tip: if you let your dog out, unattended, with no regard for its safety or the safety of others... and something happens to it, YOU are to blame.
Have some sense!

It was really nice to get out there after a long day of driving. Picnic tables and fire pit with grate for grilling also right there. Could definitely fit two big rigs comfortably.

It is more like a big dirt culdesac on a small pond feed by a creek. There is a picnic shelter but no Hookups or facilities so need to be self-contained. I was the only one camping during midweek stay. Several local fishermen and hikers with a very easy approx 3-mile hike around entire pond. Super quiet except for nature sounds. Stop over for lots of birds including swans. Closest town is Pisgah about 2 miles away. Good Verizon reception.
