It should be a crime that the government wants to privatize all national parks and it's a shame that we may not be able to enjoy this stunning area of the United States much longer. Take the long way during your roadtrip and drive through the Blue Ridge Parkway with the windows down, you will not be disappointed! The fresh air and calming scenery is healing to the soul! There are plenty of overlooks, as well. Take your time, enjoy the ride!

You don't even have to do the whole drive to get the idea, but you'll want to keep going for a while. Be selective about where you stop (you don't need to stop at every overlook) and do your homework beforehand so you know where to stop. Otherwise, this is a great thing to do with a partner-in-crime!

Some people really need a reminder that hospitality starts with being hospitable…read more We were staying at Bear Creek in Asheville and drove around the campground because we were unfamiliar with the property and wanted to see the amenities. A woman in a white Toyota 4Runner followed my daughter extremely closely until my daughter pulled over and let her pass. Hours later, the same woman pulled up beside my daughter at our campsite and approached her with a very rude attitude. When my daughter recognized her as the woman who had been following her earlier, she said she was "just checking the place" because she was the owner's daughter. That may be true, but it certainly doesn't excuse the way she treated a paying guest. There are ways to check on your property without making guests feel uncomfortable or unwelcome. Being the owner's daughter is not a free pass to be disrespectful!!! GREAT JOB BEAR CREEK !!

The beds were comfy the tent was cute inside and everything was clean including the public bathhouse. I however did not use the porta potty because I don't use those but I'm sure it was clean. We came in the winter time and if your issue with camping is bugs then i suggest this is the time to go if you can bare the cold! Did not see a single insect which helped because I cannot do spiders Lol! Ended the long day coming back from snowboarding by easing down in the hot tub while watching the stars. Honestly stayed warm for 20 minutes after getting out of tub. Couldn't figure out how to use heat/ac unit so we used our own space heater we brought but theres a page in the binder about how to use it that I wish we saw. (our fault) Either way the blankets kept us plenty warm and the sun in the morning warmed us up too. Fun experience overall and did not dissapoint. Saw somewhere in a review I think about frozen pipes and prepared for that and I think they were frozen because no water came out of sink or shower. That was no problem for us though because we brought plenty of water bottles. Still recommend regardless because you don't get a shower camping usually anyways.

FYI : They only allow ppl to stay that book reservation, u can not stay otherwise even if spots are open. We drove by looking for a place to stay for the night, our gps lead us to this mess, the extremely rude woman told us we were trespassing on her campground and she said she would escort us off the property. For us to leave immediately and someone did follow us back out the the highway. I'll never recommend. Her and the campgrounds loss, we camp often in these areas and so do our friends. We will be sure to share this info with our fellow campers. absolutely do not give the rude staff your time or money.

The smell significantly impacted our family camping trip and made it difficult to fully enjoy our stay.

After contacting the campground and requesting a full or partial refund we never received a reply back.

The grass was a bit high around our pad. It took me quite a while to find the tank hookup because it was covered in the grass. We didn't have the hookup until the next day because we couldn't find the connection. They had a bath house at the end of the lot and gave the code by email but I could never get the password for the WiFi. There was tubing available at the end of the lot. Sky tubing was the name. It is $15 a person and you have to sign up online they their Facebook page. They said they are open 3 days a week thru the end of August (Friday thru Sunday). There free is river access if you bring your own tube, ‍ surfboard or kayak/canoe. I couldn't find any office in sight to ask any questions. Plus our spot was backed up to the highway, which wasn't a problem but there was no shade at all. It got very hot during the day. Across the street was better though , but when we came there wasn't any other space available. If you want to come here make sure you reserve online because it's usually full if you don't have a reservation. I myself would of liked it better if it would have been a little more room

What is wrong is the care and love in maintaining the campground is non existent. Sent here on a recommendation from someone who had been here years ago. The bathhouse was disgusting has not been cleaned in years, there are several permanent campers in premium spots who's campers have tarps, duct tape and permanently installed window air conditioners. It would take so little to spruce it up with a fire pit, chairs along river and maybe even rake, sweep and maintain sites???

What I did not appreciate was the angry response I received when I contacted them to inquire why my reservation was canceled with very little notice. Understandably this was an uncontrollable event. A simple explanation would have been helpful so I could scramble to find a new place. I am posting this in hopes the property has recovered and the man I spoke with would also understand the difficulties that we faced to secure a new place with no notice. I was polite to him. He was not polite to me.

I really appreciated the extra long stroller-friendly trails. Many of the paths were paved but even the dirt paths worked well with our stroller. The views of the river and nature were lovely. Lot's of parking with easy in-and-out spots. You do have to take the ramp by the parking lot across the path to get to the interior playground. It's a bit of a longer trip but overall not cumbersome.
