Nice campground, the workers we met were very nice. We camped here with our 2 kids. Goats were nice touch for the kids. Bathrooms were clean. Sites a little close and not real level. We enjoyed our stay and would return. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Our family loves to visit this campground. I would recommend the sites around the lake. These sites are not shaded, but much bigger. It is close to Tweetsie Railroad, Blowing Rock, and Grandfather Mountain. We go at least twice a year to get away from the heat and enjoy the quiet. If you are in a big rig, be very careful going up Ray Brown Road as it is very tight with some blind curves (thank goodness this road does not have a lot of traffic). If the roads and sites were paved I would give this campground the coveted "10" rating. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We had a pull thru on the end of row I, the good thing about this is we had no one in front of us. This site was just long enough for our 30 ft'er. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed one night, seemed like a nice family campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We've stayed here 3 times this summer...once in July and twice in August. The campground's elevation of 3600 ft (according my my GPS) provides a refreshing relief from the heat of the Carolina coastal plain where we live. The first 2 experiences were absolutely perfect; the 3rd was less than desirable. During our first 2 visits we had a pop-up site across from the tent campers. These sites are very level and have good wifi reception. My only issue with this site was the proximity of other sites. The utility hookups for your fellow camper are beside your picnic table, which was weird, but the actual sites were okay. There were plenty of shady sites. On the 3rd visit we had a different site near the cabins. This site was the most unlevel site we've ever used! Part of the problem was that it was raining and had been raining all day. My tires spun out trying to get the camper as level as I could. This isn't KOA's fault, but better roads may make it easier for campers. The staff is superb. On the 2nd visit I was trying to take the water hose off and I broke the spicket, causing a white water wave to go all over the place! The KOA had to shut off water to 1/2 the campground to replace the spicket! I was expecting attitude and a big bill, but they fixed it for free, told me it wasn't a big deal, and ended up giving me a water splicer to replace the one I broke accidently! We love this campground...we just don't want the last site we had again! Very close to Boone. If you want to stay close to town, this is definitely a nice place to be! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We stay at a lot of KOA's. We liked this park except for a few things. The roads need to be paved. They are just gravel and dirt. They are washed out in places. The campground needs to be updated. Site was adequate for our 40 foot MH. Access from Boone was ok. Not far from major attractions so as a homebase it worked. Wifi was pathetic. Could not access from campsite. There are a lot of permanent sites but they are neat and clean. We enjoyed and would come back again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice Shady campground. The roads to the sites are a little rutted but useable. Close enough to Boone to do things there but far enough away to be quiet. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

We love the Boone area when things heat up in the flatlands of NC. Always 10-15* cooler here than the Triad area where we live. We have been coming here for a couple years now, and I felt it was time to write this review. We camped here over the Father's Day weekend in June and had a relaxing and peaceful stay as always. The owners are friendly and helpful and seem to genuinely care about the whole camping experience. The place is kept immaculate. We had a switch go bad on our slideout and had to stay an extra day to have a repair man out and we were not charged. The pool is on the small side, but clean and perfectly chilly and refreshing. Yes, the roads could use a bit of grading, but overall this is a nice place to get away and enjoy the cool mountain breezes. Close to some great outlet shopping(just ask my wife), Blowing Rock, Grandfather Mountain, Valle Crucis and some great trout fishing as well. We will return again soon to catch the autumn colors. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

My husband and I and our 3 dogs stayed here with our neighbors who have 3 boys and 2 dogs....all small dogs..poodles. The campground itself is nice. The roads are a bit washed out but the sites are ok. Our only real problem was the "Handy Camper". He was not a dog fan and if he heard the least little bark he came to our friends site and told them about it. He wasn't a kid fan either and he stayed on their kids the whole 3 days they were there. Now kids will be kids but he wouldn't let up on those 3 boys and we were all with them the whole time. The pool says heated but trust me...IT ISN'T! We didn't have a fire ring at our site but that was ok since we could go to our friends site. Had we been alone, it wouldn't have been too good! All in all we would probably go back again if we knew the "Handy Camper" had moved on to another campground. He did not need to be working in a "family" friendly campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

While the bathrooms were pleasant and clean, and the campstore well-stocked, the roads and sites were absolutely horrible. We were extraordinarily disappointed at having to pay $30 to stay in a site in such poor condition that we actually had to unhook to level the trailer. The interior gravel roads were so poorly graded that our traveling partner actually bottomed out on his sewer connection while leaving and ripped off his termination cap. When we bought a new one at the campground store and told the employees the old cap had been torn off in a gulley in the road, they just shook their heads and acted as if they had heard it before. Perhaps 50 or more tons of gravel in the sites and roads would help, but until then, don't bother visiting, especially if you want to pull in to a level site and stay hooked up with the intention of just passing through. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

I've been here twice recently - May & June of 2005. I was very pleased and satisfied with my visits. One of their staff members is very colorful and friendly: "Mountain Man" was his handle. He was a kind of big brother that walks all over the campground giving advice and help where needed... and always with a smile. This place gets very quiet at night and I have no complaints. It is off the beaten path. We camped here in a Truck Camper.

Nice and peaceful, beautiful area. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

Great shady campground on the outskirts of Boone. Campground has terraced sites on a hillside. Some of the roads can be rough, but are not impassable. Had music on Sat night. Wonderful family atmosphere. This is a busy campground so make sure you get reservations. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We stayed here in a motorhome in mid-June 2003. While it had been raining in the area more than normal, the campground was a muddy mess with boggy sites, pot holes in the road, and large muddy areas in the roads it was impossible not to drive through to enter and exit. In looking at the overall site there is simply a very poor drainage infrastructure and lack of appropriate maintenance. Money was being spent on erecting several new rental cabins while many $$$$ were needed to adequately grade, drain and resurface the roads up to just average standards. Ponds, fencing and other improvements were also in decline. It is obvious that no attempt had or was being made to address these issues. We won't be going back. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Interior roads were muddy and not well maintained. We camped here Memorial Day weekend 2003, it had rained a lot during the week and everything was a muddy mess. Not kept up very well. Camped in a 32 ft. travel trailer and the sites were very small and you didn't have much room. Also, hard to get in and out of some sites due to poor roads. Don't try to camp here if it has rained unless you have a 4X4. Also, pets are welcome, but they do not enforce the leash requirement. A lot of pets wandering from site to site. One dog ended up on our picnic table as we were trying to cook. Don't think we will visit here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We were very disappointed. Our site was very unlevel being cut in a hillside. There were mudholes and large ruts to avoid. Our site was surrounded closely by other campers, probably with 8 foot between trailers. There was no privacy. The mini golf course was in disrepair which very much disappointed the children and the fishing as advertised means that you have to drive somewhere else to fish as fishing wasn't available near the campground. The campground is located outside of town and hard to find. We were very disappointed and would not stay there again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We actually did not stay here, but drove thru the park. The park left us with the feeling it was too crowded and poorly laid out. It also looked a little hard to get a larger unit into most of the spaces.We will stay at the KOA when we go back to Boone. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Next to a truck route, at the bottom of a hill, so you get to hear the trucks engine braking down the hill at all hours. Can't understand how previous reviewers managed to get the quite spots where they DIDN'T hear the trucks! Dirty bathrooms, close sites, trash cans full. A TERRIBLE exit back onto the highway. We agree with a previous reviewer that this is an older campground that is not well maintained. At least they had good WiFi service. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

A very family oriented place. Staff is friendly, laid back atmosphere. We have been coming up for the last 5 years and wouldn't camp anywhere else in the Boone area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The campground is OK. The roads are narrow, especially the entrance with steep hill. The sites are somewhat close. However location is convenient to Valle Cruscis, Boone and Blowing Rock. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Ok park. Sites were too close for us. My awing almost hit the next camper. If you like too be that close then this campground would be for you. I would not stay here again for that reason only. Everything else was fine. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Old cg that is not maintained well at all. Camped in Class C along stream. Power kept going off - staff said it was because campers with big rigs were running their a/cs. This was unacceptable - owners should upgrade electrical lines to accomodate modern day campers. Staff said corrective action would not be taken as the power only goes off about three times a year. This is especialy bad if campers go off and leave pets in their rigs, as several of us did. As we were packing up to depart, another camper turned the water off and the whole faucet came off shooting water up in the air. Another example of poor maintenance. Recommend you pass this one up if you are in the Boone area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice place to stay, close to everything in the area. Not a lot of amenities but we don't require a lot. It was a great relaxing weekend. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The campground is secluded off of hwy 105 near Boone. You can barely hear vehicles, and the stream adds a nice touch. The sites are very close together, but the campers there when we camped were nice. The bathrooms were horrible! The men's room reaked of cigarette smoke, had toilet paper rolls all over the floor, and the showers were full of mold. The bathhouse needed a major shakedown for cleanliness. We will not return until the restrooms and bathhouses are cleaned and overhauled. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Felt the sites were very close together. Not very much privacy. Had a problem when I went to dump, my connection just happened to be stopped up, but I didn't know it until I was dumping. Sites were hard to back into and the sites across the road were also close making it harder to back into my site. Owners were very nice and friendly. Not much for my kids to do except for a small playground. I will probably not visit this campground again due to the fact it is about 4 hours away. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a nice, peaceful campground. It is located right off the main road, but you never hear cars. We had a bold stream right behind our site that the kids had a great time playing in. They also have a small playground area for the children. We really like this place and can't wait to go back. The only negative thing I would say about this campground is that the sites are very close together. However, they are clean, level, and easy to get to. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Sites were narrow and close together. Streamside sites are the nicest. Staff was very nice and helpful. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.

This is a dusty, dusty campground with very unlevel sites. Also, it is not big rig friendly unless you consider a 15-foot popup to be a big rig. Turns are hairpin tight, sites are difficult to get into, and, if you blink, you will miss their pathetic sign. Possibly okay for an overnight but not if anything else is available. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Hurricane Ivan had damaged the bridge at the entrance causing the wife a few nervous moments getting into the park. There's a nice "catch what you keep" fishing pond next to the park. Restrooms were clean and there was a nice hiking trail behind the park. I'd stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We camped here for a short weekend get away to allow the children to go sledding at Beach Mountain. I understand why the previous post said dusty, dusty, dusty. When we were there it rained and it was muddy, muddy, muddy. The sites were very small and unlevel. The sites are covered with gravel, however, get off of the gravel and you are in the mud. We camped right on the river which is the only positive about this camp ground. This place is not big rig friendly. We do not have a big rig and it was not friendly to us in a 34 ft travel trailer. This place is OK for smaller units if you do not mind the mud and when it is dry the dust. We like to camp in cleaner areas. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

The campground is very nice. The only problems that we had occurred with staff personnel. We have camped there on a seasonal basis for several years. A staff member moved our travel trailer to its site the first year and bent the stabilizers. We had to replace them at our own expense. At the end of every season staff have turned off our electricity before we could get to the site and winterize our unit. This caused mold and mildew in the refrigerator along with other problems. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
