I am guessing that the people who complained about the sites and "bad road" in do not have a lot of experience. We really didn't see an issue with our 36 ft motorhome. Yes there is a blind curve and the layout to get in and out of the camp ground is odd, but keep in mind you are in the mountains of Asheville! Location is awesome. We were in site 30 and did have a nice view of the mountains in the distance. Some sites will not have that view so I guess it depends on what site you are in. You can't see the Biltmore from any site and need to walk to the dog walk area. Full cable hook ups, and weak Wi-Fi from our site. Concrete pads but no privacy landscaping between sites. You can hear the highway in the distance but it wasn't that bad and the way previous reviews were, it sounded like the campground was literally on the highway. Not so. No problems checking in. Very nice campground and we would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground was clean but was located near the highway and lacked character. It did not really feel like camping but served a purpose for a place to stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Road to campsite is a steep, windy, very narrow road. Access to the campground's "pull through" was extremely difficult and bound up our toad hitch. The front of the site was literally on the highway with traffic only a few feet in front of the motorhome. The campground was way overpriced and not suited for big rigs. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a campground that we won't ever forget! It is small but beautiful. We had a great site, a million dollar view, up on the side of a mountain. This place is beautiful maintained and we will be back! We camped here in a Motorhome.

My mother and I had a great visit. I chose this park based on the great reviews and it was everything I had hoped it would be. We were in the Premium-5 spot (P-5) and it was the best view in the park. Owner was a gem, very helpful; she even went to town and picked up hot dogs for us to cook over the campfire as we had no way down. She does make this park very unique and I definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the Asheville area. I left feeling like I had a new friend. I hope to be able to come back one day. This one is a must-do! We camped here in a Motorhome.

You are rewarded for the long twisted road up to the campground with views that are tremendous. Small number of sites available so be sure to reserve prior to arrival. Friendly, courteous, and helpful staff with well maintained campsites. We would definitely stay here again!! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It was clean and well maintained. All types of camping from tenting and yurts to Class A motorhomes. Make reservations ahead of time and ask for one of the sites with a pad and view of the river. Really beautiful. Asheville not far away, but we were there for the foliage and hiking. OBEY THE CHECK IN TIME. Once you leave the highway you will be going up a one lane mountain road. Owners fun and polite. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very nice, small quiet and all spots are on the river. There is lots of wildlife ( Ducks and geese with babies will come to you and let you feed them. We would go again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Great campground! Camp hosts were extremely helpful, friendly, and professional. The sites allow for some privacy and are spacious. Whole campground was kept clean and the hosts attend to maintenance and upkeep regularly. This campground is very convenient to shopping in Asheville, but seems like it's deep in a forest. Bathrooms very clean, showers clean also. Big fire rings, big picnic tables, reasonable prices and location. The only down side is that this campground closes on Oct 31. I would camp here in the winter if it was open. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Pisgah National Forest – Lake Powhatan Campground Asheville,NC – Friday, Saturday & Sunday May 1,2,3, Site 93 Hardtimes Loop/ $20 but add on if 3 way hookup which you can only get if host sites are not filled. Golden Age Pass applies so take 50% off just the base fee. The directions are easy to follow to this National Forest Campground but some of the roads are narrow off of highway 191. This park has four big loops or areas and they are all on hills – the whole park is hilly. There is a beach for swimming, showers in some loops, dump station and many trailheads in the park for hiking. If you are in excellent shape and in your twenties you can bike all around but it is very difficult for someone who is not! It is on Highway 191 right off of I-26 just before you enter Asheville with many shopping malls and stores around. It is right next to an entrance to the Blue Ridge parkway and within three miles of the Folk Art Center and the Destination Center – two good places to visit on the parkway. The North Carolina Arboretum back entrance is on the road to the campground. Dogwood Trees were all in bloom so it was very pretty driving in. It is also close to the Biltmore Estate for visiting and an easy trip downtown but Asheville is a city and the traffic is heavy especially on Fridays and Saturdays. The site we had was hard to get into but there are many that are easy. All the hosts that we met were very nice, friendly and informative. We would stay here again. There is so much to see in Asheville and on the Blue Ridge that you can not do it all in just three days! We camped here in a Motorhome.

Spacious, shaded, relatively private and well maintained sites, an abundance of beautiful hiking and biking trails, a lovely, sand beach, excellent security, a helpful and gracious staff, and easy access to a variety of local attractions (including the North Carolina Arboretum just down the road) make this a wonderful campground in which to enjoy a peaceful camping experience. Campers should be aware, though, that the gates are locked at 10 p.m. nightly (you can park outside the gate and walk in if you want to enjoy Asheville's magnificent nightlife until a later time). The restroom facilities -- though well maintained -- may be somewhat inadequate (a single toilet, sink and shower were provided in our loop's men's restroom). We camped here in a Tent.

Roads are all gravel and in good shape. All sites are very short but you have room in each side. You have two cement strips on most sites to park on. You have 11 sites that have 50 amp power and all others are 30 amps. This is not a big rig campground due to small roads and tight turns. Short RV units will take up the hold site and tows will park in front on in road. Water, sewer, power, cable TV, and table on all sites. Owner was very nice at check in and helpful as well. This park has been in service a long time or back in days of small RV units. Lots of green grass in hold park, nice. Noise: We could hear the train at times (no horn blowing) only wheels rolling on the tracks. Most of the noise here is off Hwy 70 in front of park. Wi-Fi was free, fast, strong, and will work on your site. You do have some trees to park under here. Rates are on Good Sam. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed at this park because is was all we could find in the area that had been reviewed and had big rig sites. We needed Wifi and needed a laundry, which this one had. It was raining when we set up so the site was very wet but dried up quickly after the rain. The staff was friendly. My problem with this park was the "laundry". There are two bathrooms each having a shower and a toilet & sink. One of the bathrooms had a washer dryer combo in it like they make for small apartments. The staff, who works limited hours, must turn it on for you when the bathroom is not being other wise used. You pay the staff and they turn it on during their office hours. There were some small (tiny) campers which used the bathrooms as their home away from home so I was not able to get my laundry done. I had to find a laundromat. This park is OK for overnight if you don't need the laundry. It is pretty tight for big rigs. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We camp in a 32' Vintage Airstream. Our site backs to a creek view (sites A1-A9 only). "B" and "C" sites, though pull-thru, are much less attractive. Tidy, grassy landscape with Hollywood drive for trailer and concrete slab for table. Short fence conceals neighbor's hook-ups. Site too short to accomodate truck--parked seven spaces away (all sites are only 40' long). There is a train across the creek that may annoy light sleepers. Park has a significant number of permanant WT residents. It is an easy walk to adjacent hiway commercial including restaurants and a new bank. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

It was okay for overnight stay. The noise from interstate was bad. Some sites did not have working water. The office is down the road, and did not even know we were there until we stopped to pay the next day. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Passport America rate. This campground is between two interstates: I-40 and I-240 so you listen to traffic noise all night long. If you need a place to stop overnight, then this place is ok and then only at a discounted rate. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The campground next to the highway, so there is lots of road noise. They are making improvements, including concrete pads to set up on. It was an ok stay for overnight. We camped here in a Motorhome.
