This campsite is very well maintained. Friendly camp host. It was pleasant our first night with mostly families and retirees camping. Not so much Saturday night as a huge tent camping group arrived with either young adults or teenagers that were noisy. So I would avoid this if you are only coming for Saturday night camping. Every other night was great and not so crowded. Nice short hike to a waterfall available as well as a river trail where I believe you can tube and definitely fly fish. Short drive to Mt. Mitchell state park for those who don’t want to hike to the summit from the campground. A moderate to strenuous 5.6 mile hike if you are not used to hiking. Also no cell coverage (Verizon)! A plus when you want to escape 😁
Spoke to several campers and I don’t think any carriers were receiving. Long gravel road to entrance, but still easily passable for all vehicle types. Only taking stars away for noise Saturday night.
