I've stayed in many of their properties and have left a wide range of reviews and only the best , 5 star reviews get published publicly which is not a good way for the customer to know what they are getting. This has happened now twice with Greybeard where the house had 5 star reviews but was not a 5 star home. They are nice to deal with and the homes are cleaned well. They just need to be transparent about the houses.

The bed is old and worn out and needs replacing with nothing but two flat sheets thrown on the bed, the carpeting needs replacing it is beyond nasty. It is Graybeard responsibility To maintain a clean, comfortable living space. This has not been provided. Rachel offered to have the house keeper come back. It would take her hours to clean this house. She also offered us $60 to replace most of our clothes that were ruined with the washing machine. Her offer was as ridiculous as mine $1000 I will be posting more photographs. Please read response to my review. It says it all.

The price for the room included dinner and breakfast--an outstanding deal. The mountain view was lovely. This area is super quiet, with only the sounds of the cicadas at night. In front of every room there are red rocking chairs on a porch. Can't wait to visit again. Tip: they sell wine and beer at the restaurant. So, if you're traveling the BRP and didn't think to bring your own beverage, rest assured you do you not have to travel to an ABC store to have a drink.

If you've ever wondered what happens when a campground gives up on being a campground but still…read morecharges resort prices, welcome to Lake James Campground and Marina -- a masterclass in unmet expectations. Let's start with the grounds: mowing appears to be an optional hobby rather than a maintenance task. Weeds regularly reach over a foot tall, yet management is quick to blame everything from the weather to property ownership rather than simply getting the grass cut. It's a perfect metaphor for the whole place -- neglect wrapped in excuses. As for amenities, calling this a resort is comedy gold. There's a small, perpetually crowded pool that's the only semblance of recreation. Beyond that? Nothing. No playgrounds, no activities, no amenities for kids -- unless you count watching the weeds grow as entertainment. The "main office" doubles as a ghost town; there's no store, no supplies, and certainly no service. The showers and changing rooms only operate during pool hours, which means forget early showers, late rinses, or any kind of off-season use. And the mountain side? It's an oven with no tree cover -- a sunbaked slope that feels less like camping and more like punishment. But the crown jewel of disappointment here is the management. The manager, Bridgette, has turned poor hospitality into an art form. Unless you're in her inner circle, expect hostility instead of help. Any mention of the park's shortcomings is met with denial or name-calling -- everyone's a liar except her. Fees appear out of thin air, rules shift without warning, and enforcement feels more like harassment than management. We were even chastised for having kids' toys and outdoor furniture -- apparently joy is a violation here. Before booking, I strongly encourage anyone to read the management's responses to other negative reviews. Notice the pattern -- rather than addressing issues, she calls the reviewers liars. I'm sure this one will be no different. If you're looking for a peaceful camping getaway, keep driving. If you're nostalgic for the charm of a retirement community run by a vindictive HOA that accidentally allows children, you've found your paradise. Lake James Campground and Marina could be something special -- but until the management and maintenance rise to even basic standards, it's a cautionary tale, not a destination.

Plenty of nice trees provide shading with plenty of grass instead of dirt or muddy areas. They have a covered social area on the creek with nice big fireplace. This seems to be a gathering spot at night. Several rocking chairs to pull in front of the fireplace and relax. The area itself is very convenient to a lot of NC Mountain landmarks. The Blue Ridge Parkway is approx. 1.5 miles away, Linville Falls is a 10-12 minute drive, Linville Caverns is a 20 minute drive, Grandfather Mountain approx. 20 minutes, and Tweetsie Railroad is about 35 minutes. Bottom line is this is a very nice family campground, friendly staff, and great location. We have now visited twice and will be back.
