Site Info: The sites are very basic and RV’s are close to each other. If you have a shorter camper they have some slightly nicer sites that back up to the river. Our site was mostly dirt with some sparse patches of grass. This place seems to be great for kids. There is fishing and you can rent bikes and golf carts to get around. This park was very noisy especially on the weekend. Kids riding motorized (loud) bikes rode around the park constantly, dogs left unattended and barking, and there is a train that passes by across the street several times day and night that blows its horns every time it comes by.
Wifi/Cable: Cable – yes, Wifi – yes, but not very good
Hook-ups: Full-hook ups, 50 amp
Dogs: They have a small fenced area for dogs to run around. There is a lake to walk around if you are looking for a longer walk. No breed restrictions mentioned.
Location: Easy to get into Asheville and easy access from I-40.
Ease of Access: Main roads to get there and then easy to get into. When full the park is a little tight to drive through.
Ease of Reservation: Online reservations.

This campground is fun and decently clean. There are a lot of geese and ducks because there are 3 ponds and a river. They tease my dog and make a lot of noise. There is also a train right across from the campground. The activities include an arcade, a doggie park, and it's also fun to bike around. The internet was good. I would recommend section E for RVing because it’s close to the water, and you get a lot of space. Overall, I give it four-out-of-five stars. (See rating above.)
While this was written by my 12 year old son, the words are his (the grammar and spelling are a collaborative effort). He was actually more critical than I would be. We loved this campground! The internet was fast and reliable and cable TV was great. We were put in Section A but I walked the dog around the park and we spotted the sites in Section E and moved. It is just beautiful around the lake. There are quite a few sites big enough for motorhomes and other good-sized RVs. The individual ratings is mine.

This place is huge. We were just passing through, so we went for the cheaper sites up closer to the main road. If staying again, I'd spring for the lake or riverfront sites though. Overall very nice place to stay.

We stayed by the river, which mad for a pretty view. The staff there are kind and helpful. Our only issue was the noises coming from trains and the road. The first night I had three trains wake me up. The second night I had trains and ambulances wake me up. I appreciate how close it is to Asheville, but the noises will prevent us from staying there again. We leave today feeling exhausted.

The staff was awesome, the other campers were awesome - the kids LOVED it. We felt so good letting our kids be kids - ride bikes, tube in the creek, play at the playground, etc.
The sites were a good size, the grounds were immaculate and the setting pristine and peaceful. We WILL be back at some point.

We’ve stayed here twice and all the amenities are on point. The WiFi here is excellent. I work from the road so this was great for us! Not only being close to Asheville, this is a great spot to get to some other places as well. Black Mountain, Montreat, Chimney Rock, almost too many to list. During the week there are considerably less campers making it very peaceful and pleasant. We will definitely stay here again!

This campground has been one of our favorite private owned campgrounds during our travels. First off, the place is HUGE. They have two lakes, which you can fish off of or even walk around for a nice evening stroll. The river goes right through the campground so you can play in the water/tube here. They also have a pool. The campground is catered to families with children so there is a great playground, game room, bike rentals and more. Close to downtown Asheville, Blue Ridge, and so many hiking trails. Will definitely stay here again when back in the Asheville area.

We stayed here Thanksgiving week and it was super peaceful. We had a back-in spot on the large lake and the scenery was very nice. Fished. Feed the geese. Warmed by the fire while looking out on the lake. And I even had to work and enjoyed solid internet. Definitely would stay here again!

We stayed here the week of Thanksgiving. It was a little crowded for COVID times but (most) of the staff was masked up. Groups kept to themselves. The kids played football in the grassy areas all day long. A beautiful week!

Let's start with the good. A river runs through it. You are close enough to Asheville and also the cutest little spot of Black Mountain. There's some good hiking close by and on the campground I really loved all the space to walk the dogs. Dog walking is 10 out of 10. Along the loops and the river to jump in. Also the private baths near loop D & E and nice and renovated.
The not so good. Highway and train noise. The weekends are a mad house. Like a lot of KOAs the place is quiet all week and then madness on the weekend. Loop A interior is horrible. Spots are tiny and you back up to all your neighbors. Luckily, we questioned the spot and while we could not get on the water (all reserved) we moved to E row that backed up to trees and were happier.
My biggest advice would be if you stay pick a site on the water. A sites on river, D sites at the end of the row and E sites on Lake are the best IMO.
