We saw kids enjoying the pools and many people grilling. This site is right by the Blue Ridge Parkway and we had nice cruises along the Parkway. Most of the camping sites we found on the parkway had no hookups , which is ok if you are tent camping but not for those of us towing a camper.

We arrived to big Mike's after dark when the office was closed. We went to the gate where our map…read morelet us, and it was not a gate that was in use. We had to go back through a neighborhood to find the right spot, and we waited for, the camp to bring us to our site. The coffee shop was a nice feature, but we were disappointed that it wasn't open on our way out of town Sunday. We understand why it's closed on Sundays, but the coffee shop, also being open to the public, should be open on Sundays if they're going to use this as a selling feature for coming to Big Mike's. The parking pads are a decent size and we had one right on the river. Since we were there in October, there wasn't a whole lot to do especially in the creek. It was evident at the time that big Mike was still working on expanding and building his dream RV park. The open area field is perfect for families so kids can run around or play ball. Overall, it was clean and the shower facilities were one of the best we'd experienced on our travels. We highly recommend big Mike's RV Resort!

The park is pretty remote, with only occasional cell service (a good thing or a bad thing depending…read moreon one's needs). The parking really close to the mountain is handicap only, so the intention is for most people to walk a 4.5 mile loop that goes around the mountain and then up it on the way back. It is a substantial climb, both down into a gully with an impressive waterfall and up the mountain itself. The rock does offer wide-spanning views. The infrastructure was not in ideal shape at the time of my visit, with some water fountains down and other limitations in amenities. I also found the trail setup a bit confusing as following marks led me once to a dead end and in another case, I had to hike on a gravel road a bit to get back to the trail and that wasn't marked clearly as the right way to go. While these things could be improved, the park is an excellent resource and as is standard practice in NC (but not in SC or VA), is free to enter.

We did have a pretty scary mishap.Our Jeep while being disconnected rolled down a hill. My wife actually tried to jump in to stop it (not recommended!), and ended up with quite a few bumps, scrapes, and bruises. Thankfully, it wasn't anything more serious, but definitely a moment we won't forget. What truly stood out was the incredible response from the staff. Wayne showed up immediately and, along with Jennifer, and the front desk lady who I don't know her name, jumped into action. Wayne was able to safely pull our Jeep back up over the ledge, and their calm, supportive response made all the difference in a stressful situation. We are so grateful. Beyond that adventure, the campground has been fantastic. The grounds are clean, the playground is being updated, and they even blew up the jump pad for the kids,which was a huge hit! There are also resident donkeys who love carrots, which adds such a fun and unique touch. And I have to say......major win on the bathrooms and showers. They are spotless and thoughtfully designed, with plenty of space to hang clothes and set down toiletries (which, if you RV, you know is everything!). I truly can't say enough about how wonderful our stay has been. Great people, great atmosphere, and a place we would absolutely come back to. Highly recommend!

We are pretty avid fans of most KOA's - though this has been our least favorite. One issue is the…read morevery narrow hours the office is open. They close at 6, so if you check in after hours, they hang a bag and insist you sign a waiver and drop it in a box. We are used to being escorted to sites by staffers in golf carts - none of that here, in fact very little interaction with, nor seeing anyone who worked there. The sites are not very level, and it can be incredibly steep to get out. We were there 4 days, and I can say it's incredibly quiet, to the point my husband and I felt uncomfortable sitting outside with low music talking. It seems that most people are either long term stays, or single night on their way elsewhere (we had a different neighbor every single night). With other options in the area, we won't be back.

The laundry facilities are good. Didn't use the shower facilities at all so couldn't review those. We have a 39' 5th wheel and had no trouble backing into space 11. The site we have isn't as level as we would have liked but we are making it work. The office, on first glance, isn't very welcoming but the owner is very nice and accommodating. Don't be intimidated by Adeline, the bull mastiff, who is often at the door. She is a big lover dog. The wi-fi is excellent and allows us to stream what we need. (There is no cable and antenna TV gives us 3 channels) We use a JetPak for personal needs. Our Sprint cell service is decent in park, as well. There is a large solar array across the street which tells me this is a pretty sunny spot, which we find to be true. Which is good since we are wintering here this year. We arrived Nov 1 and this was a pretty area in the Fall. We like it here very much and will come back again when we visit our daughter.

This campground is not Big Rig Friendly. After the terrible experience of trying to get into the muddy campsite, we got stuck in the mud trying leave this poor excuse for a campground. We had to call a tow truck to pull us out. Once on the asphalt road, a big rig has to do a three point turn to make a left on 421 from Vanderpool Rd. There needs to be a stop to these terrible campground conditions. The owner has no idea how to properly run a reputable campground and lies to your face about it being big rig friendly. We've been bless to have camped in all 49 continental States and we've never encountered such a dump.
