Petersburg Campground features friendly staff and well-maintained, clean facilities, making it a pleasant place to stay. Many campers appreciate the spacious, diverse sites and beautiful views, despite ongoing recovery from Hurricane Helene, which has affected some amenities and scenery. While there are some drawbacks, such as restroom accessibility and low lake water levels, the overall experience remains positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Loved staying here! By far the best campsite I’ve been to!! Nice camping areas not right on top of each other and quiet at night! Can’t wait to be back!

We finally got to camp at Petersburg Campground. We will be staying longer the next trip. The campground was well maintained, and shopping was nearby.

I was on site 35. My problem is with most campsites at Petersburg. The driveways have deep ruts making it hard to get in and out of most campsites. The pads are no longer level. Most of the steps are in very poor shape and washed out. Pads also hold water if it rains.

Petersburg is a spacious beautiful Campground. The only negative would be deep ruts on sites 34, 35.
