Our site (19) was perfect. The tent pad is far from the fire ring and under shade. The pad is large and flat. The campground is very clean including the bathrooms. The Blue Ridge Reservoir is a few miles away and is a great place to take a dip in some cool water. Many campers brought kayaks or inflatables. To get to the reservoir is a rocky so use caution.
I will say if the campground is full, you'll have some close neighbors.
Overall, I would come back to this campground in the future.

This is a lovely campground with lots of space and a beautiful area but unfortunately, the weekend we went at 55 mph winds and it was very challenging to set up camp to have dinner when your tent camping. Also, I didn’t like the fact that they were allowing campfires when there’s 55 mph winds and I talked to the campground host and he says yeah, they may or may not shut it down, which is kind of scary.

Secluded campground with extra clean vault toilets that actually smell good. The sites were raked so nicely that I hated to make footprints in them. Trees are trimmed, sites are very clean. The views of the rim/canyon are visible from both sides of the campground so it's hard to get a bad site. The road going down to the reservoir is super rough especially at the end. Our kayak group enjoyed paddling and staying at the campground where we were close enough for campfire get-togethers, yet not too close for comfort. We never saw the camp host, but the park rangers were really nice that came through.
I would definitely stay here again!

Loved this campground and would totally come back as it was very quiet and plenty of space between sites. Also, host and hostess made sure we had clean bathrooms everyday. Thank you!
