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.

Fantastic campground. Never met the hosts this time, but excellent view of the lake and private too, even when spots on both sides were full.

Decent distance between sites. Nice hiking trail, but remain alert for mountain bikes.
Bathrooms facilities are decent and clean.

It's a nicely laid out campground with large lots and each with a view of the water. Restrooms are maintained and clean. Minor suggestions for improvement: include a scheme for site drainage when it rains, and better showerheads would be appreciated.

Camping sites are in much need of a water drainage system, during heavy rains, to prevent flooding. Several sites are noted to accommodate larger rigs but in and out driveways are difficult to maneuver due to steep inclines or nearby trees.
Petersburg Campgrounds needs to open more sites year-round.
