Rating: 9 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: If you are willing to boondock, this campground is fabulous. It is right on the Blue Ridge Parkway and part of the NPS. We were there in late June, and shared it with only 4 other RVs. Our site was very level and paved. Some of the sites are "parallel parking" sites which seem a bit narrow, though we saw an A-liner in one with no problems at all. The campground is convenient to wonderful hiking. It is in the woods, we met a deer grazing next to our unit during our morning dog walk. There is a separate tent camping area which seemed to have a few more campers in it. We never actually saw the camp host, though we saw his unit. It is a quiet, lovely, convenient place. The fee indicated here reflects the 50% senior citizen discount. - ShoreXplorers
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Crabtree Falls Campground »We are amazed this campground has not been rated before. It is a NPS campground, on the Blue Ridge Parkway at milepost 340. It was formerly known as "Crabtree Meadows". The name was changed so that travelers would know the main attraction was the beautiful falls nearby. There are about 22 RV sites that will accommodate RVs up to 36 ft or more. Do not expect good satellite or cell phone service here although we did have Verizon cell phone and "air card" service. In addition, there are 71 tent sites in a separate area. All sites are shaded with hardwoods (hickory, etc). A VERY quiet campground with paved roads and sites. This is a great campground to get away from it all! At the entrance is a visitors center with gift shop and snack bar. We were only 8 miles from shopping in Spruce Pine. We "camped" in a 36 ft RV. Generators may be used between 8 AM and 9 PM. The fee rate is for Golden Age Passport, otherwise, it is $16. We definitely will camp here again. - gatordan

Rating: 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Spruce Pine Campground »Oldest campground in North Carolina. Great location, just off the BR Parkway at about 3500 feet in elevation; lots to see. August temperatures were in the 60s at night and mid-70s during the day. Owner is very friendly and helpful. Campground has tent sites and RV sites. RV sites are full hookup and include cable TV. Roads into and within the campground are gravel, with a some grade. All RV sites are shaded and have a combination gravel/dirt open area. Only a few sites accommodate Campers over 30 feet. Trees are overgrown, be careful of your camper and the roof! Verizon cell phone worked great. We would stay again. - NCRambler

Rating: 10 7 6 10 7 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: This amazing campground resort is located on the Blue Ridge Parkway at mile marker 324, a short ride from Spruce Pine, NC. We stayed with a 39 ft Fifth wheel and are just under their 40 ft. maximum. The new owners of 3 years, are busy updating the park to its original glory. This RV and tent campground is located in the Pusgah National Forest area and the sites are wooded and spaced nicely apart. This is the nicest family resort that we have stayed at on the East coast. If you like fishing, swimming, hiking trails with waterfalls, game rooms and much more, you will love this resort. They also have cabins for non campers. - Kathy-Arnie F
Campground is about a half mile off the Blue Ridge Parkway down a winding, gravel road. I was traveling the parkway in the off season and this was the only campground open. I got there just before they closed the office. A very friendly young lady swiftly checked me in. The campground is split into two halves, each on a wooded hill with and valley and lake between them. I was placed in a site on the further half. It was a smaller site, water and electric only, but I only needed the power. Power at the site showed a reversed polarity, but since I was the only one in this section, I moved to the next site over. Site was graveled and level. The roads in the campground were all steep and of loose gravel, except right near the office. Very tight maneuvering, but there were some big rigs back in the furthest section. The bath house was very clean but also very dated and unheated. Never could get the wifi to work, even near the campground office the next morning. Office and store was well stocked, even in the off season. I would stay again, but in warmer weather. - Cyclonic
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Bear Den Campground »The campground is located off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Plenty of signs along the major roads providing directions to the campground. The road into the campground is rough with steep hills and narrow lanes. There are a couple of hairpin turns that might be difficult for big rigs. In fact I did not see any class As in the campgrounds. Check in was easy but the map to the campsite was not particularly clear and we had trouble finding our campsite. A guide would had been helpful. Roads in the campground are very tight and are difficult to maneuver. The campsites in the "C" section are very small and close together.
Sites have full hook-ups, picnic tables and fire pit. Wi-Fi is only available at the office, no cable and no AT&T. Sites are fairly level. There was some nice equipment in the playground.
We camped here for a week. - Nautilus -

Rating: 10 10 10 10 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Our second stay here. Never disappoints. We were on site 19 which has great creek access. Pretty much perfect. Glad to have the WiFi access so we could make a few needed phone calls. Definitely one of our favorite campgrounds in N.C. We will be back. - jrackley
The campground is top notch. From making reservations online to leaving the site was excellent. The owners truly care about your camping experience. We stayed on site 28 and the views of the stream were very calming. The check in process was very easy. Great price for a full hookup site. The office/store has lots of items for purchase which is convenient. We purchased firewood at the store and it was delivered to our campsite. When hooking up our water supply our hose was too short, but the office/store had a hose for purchase. Very nice. Basketball area behind office and the office has balls you can use. Games you can borrow. Saturday night was a BBQ which was fabulous. The BBQ and BBQ chicken were delicious. Nice big open field for playing. Site was very clean. Restrooms and showers were very very clean. Friendly staff! Saturday we drove to Crabtree Falls, not far from Mountain Stream. Beautiful water fall! We loved that Sunday check out was at 2PM vs. 12PM. We are already planning our next camping trip to Mountain Stream Labor Day weekend. This is definitely a campground worth visiting. - Lisa Caverly
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Mountain Stream RV Park »We rented a travel trailer that was on site. Could hear the sound of the river, every calming. It was well equipped with everything we needed and we didn't have to clean when we left. It was more than we expected. Will return several times in 2019. Barbecue on Saturday night was a added treat. The hosts gave you a list of events in the area. We visited a couple of wineries. - Giga

Rating: 9 10 6 9 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Very nice campground!! We opted for the pull thru site since it was in the open and had sunshine but if we come back, will have a back-in site on the creek. Staff very friendly and helpful. All utilities were good. Very peaceful setting and close to Blue Ridge Pkwy although the road to the pkwy was difficult to maneuver. - rockfarmer
We found the pre-arrival phone calls to be helpful and polite. Good instructions on how to drive to the camp. It was easy to get to and big rig friendly. The host owners are over the top with kind help about local attractions and set up etc. Sewer did not accept water as fast as my hose fed it. Some overflow onto the ground. It was not a thread on connection. Power was good. Water seemed a little low on pressure but it was good. We plan to go back. We had a motor home with dolly tow. We stored our dolly a short distance away and stayed backed up to the creek. Drive 80 to the Blue Ridge Parkway. What a hoot to drive 80. I fell in love with our new to us Mini Cooper as we worked our way up 80. The mountain area you are in offers waterfalls, driving on the Blue Ridge Parkway and lots of little towns with special shops. It is a lush area to explore. Great people and great scenery. When driving your rig in from I40 do not miss the turnoff on 80 to Toms Creek road. If you miss that intersection......just do not miss it. - OldWrench
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Buck Creek RV Park (formerly Buck Creek Campground and Driving Rang »The campground has a bunch of sites around the perimeter of a nice green field of grass. The sites on one side of the field are along a nice river, those are the best. They are all back-in sites. They have 4 sort of pull-thru sites out in the field, it's really more like parallel parking than a real pull-thru, though. All sites are shady except for the "pull-thru" sites. Some sites have cable TV and there is WiFi in the camp. I found the WiFi unusable at times, and other times it worked pretty well. Verizon cell signal is weak but usable most of the time. I felt the price was a bit high for what you get. No pool, dirty laundry room, marginal showers, but the river was nice. At night is is very dark, so bring a flashlight, great for star gazing, though. Owner is nice, but he likes to talk and is not bashful about espousing his views on a variety of topics. Access for big rigs is good, although some of the back-in sites might be difficult for larger units. We chose one of the pull-thru sites for our 42 foot coach. - larhode

Rating: 10 9 10 10 9 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Park has new owners that have made significant improvements. The bath house has been renovated and is one of the best we have seen. New laundry room is outstanding and includes iron, ironing board and soap. They have run fiber which gives the reliable and fast wi-fi. Campground is close to Blue Ridge Parkway. Only negative is no camp store but town of Spruce Pine is close. This is our favorite mountain campground. - Ted V
Beautiful secluded campground - very clean and well landscaped. Sites are mostly gravel and grass and level. The pond is stocked with fish and the sounds of the Toe River can be heard throughout. Folks were VERY friendly. There is no pool, but tubing in the Toe river is right there. Access to the river from most sites is limited due to steepness of the river banks. Some sites were seasonal, but all sites well kept. Owners were very nice and were very responsive and checked on us. Kids rode bikes around the pond - very safe atmosphere. Dog friendly. Some sites bigger than others, but can accommodate most. No cable, but an upcharge high speed wifi was GREAT! Preferred it to most crappy cable systems. If you want to kick back and relax in a peaceful environment, you can't beat this campground. Will definitely stay there again! - Squatch

Rating: 9 4 8 10 3 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: A very nice RV park, the owners were friendly and helpful. It was quiet during the week but the park fills up on the weekend. Our site # 9 between the cabins was wonderful! - JRiggs60
All the above was good I just didn't think it was as good as being at a state park. We were ask to put our dogs back on their leash after they had been on them all day. It was late in the evening and they always stay next to the camper with us basically well behaved ... It also says that quiet time starts at 10 pm but that was not the case someone played bongo drums and singing till very late so can't understand why our dogs were a problem. I think we are good going to parks from now on more room to run around for ourselves . - Mikeb476
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Linville Falls Trailer Lodge & Campground »This was a larger park, with sections for tent camping and larger trailers. Campground has a large recreation area with corn hole, horses, etc. Sites can be a bit tight. We had to have our neighbors move their vehicles so we could back in. Likewise we had to move our vehicle so others could back out. Sites were large enough for the Trailers, but limited spaces for cars. Hookups were in the middle of the site which was nice. Sites had a privacy fence around the fire pit and charcoal grill which was nice, although tight parking had the neighbors car backed up next to the grill. - CLTCampers

Rating: 8 8 7 8 8 Clean Restrooms: Clean Showers: Stayed 5 nights in a 43' motorhome. CG is located outside of Marion, NC alongside the Catawba river in the Tom Johnson service facility- now Camping World. Easy access from I-40 (approx. 8 mi) to Resistoflex rd. Our site #30 was concrete, level, FHU with a picnic table and a shared fire ring. No cable some OTA channels. Big Rig friendly. Security gate with electronic access code. Garbage pickup in morning. On site TJ's Café at service center offering good food - Breakfast and lunch at reasonable prices. WiFi available in service center. Lots of space to walk your dog. Close to Blue ridge Pkwy, Grandfather Mtn., Linville Falls and other attractions. When in area would stay here again. - RTM
Very nice campground with level concrete back-in pads with nice concrete patios. We stayed a month so our rate reflects the monthly discount. Campground has no amenities except for the shower and laundry room. They have another campground across the road called the rally park, it's mostly used for big events and is basically a big grass field with hookups. We stayed here for a month and almost every afternoon it rained hard. Big storms form over the mountains and roll down towards Marion frequently. The park is well kept and is right next to a huge RV service center which is part of the nearby Camping World. Unlike most Camping World service centers, the people here know what they are doing. So if something breaks, they can fix it, as long as you have lots of money to pay for their rather high rates. The park has an automatic gate that closes in the evening, so if you arrive after normal business hours, make sure you call ahead for the code. Also, there is nobody in the office on Sunday. Calling ahead for reservations is a challenge since it's hard to get anyone in the campground department to answer the phone. Just keep trying and make sure you call during normal business hours, which are limited. We never saw a day when every site was full; most of the time it was about half full. Last year the whole campground flooded after days of heavy rains, but all the damage has been repaired and the grounds look great. The WiFi is not good and only works if you are close to the main building, but the Verizon signal is excellent, 4 bars, so we just tethered off our phone for our Internet. - larhode
View more reviews and a full list of amenities for Tom Johnson Campground »The rate was for a 50 amp full hookup site in the rally campground. There are two campground areas, the main campground (60 sites) & service facility on the west side of Resistoflex Road, and the rally park (>400 sites) on the east side of Risistoflex road. The main campground is first class, all paved, etc, while the rally park is essentially a large open grass field of full hookup sites with roadways through the various sections. The main campground was full so we were placed in the rally area, and we essentially had the whole rally area to our selves. However, we were charged the same camp fees that we would have paid if we had been able to get into the main campground. Hurricane Irma visited the area about 5 days prior to our visit, and the rally camp area grass was soft, with evidence of ruts which were being filled by the staff the second day of our stay. AT&T and Verizon cell service decent, and good satellite access in both campground areas. Lots of shopping and restaurants are located nearby to the east and south in Marion. To access the campgrounds, make certain that you use Resistoflex road off Highway 70, about 300 feet west of the main Tom Johnson store/showroom, rather than trying to enter at the store/showroom. Also if you plan to enter the rally campground on a Sunday, be certain to call during the week to obtain the gate code to allow entry as there is no regular staff there on Sundays. - Johnson's
