What Guests Are Saying
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.

A most enjoyable and comfortable place! So much space in between campsites that we felt like we had the whole place to ourselves! The people were so nice and accomodating for any needs we had and made it known that we were important to them. The sites are clean and kept up.

Just beautiful sights from these very large campsites. Utilities worked perfectly and there were very nice trails just around the corner. Only minor qualm were the steep drops to get into the sites, but the lakeside views were worth it.

We love the park and how it's laid out. What we don't like is the way you make reservations. There are only a few sites that accommodate our camper and it seems like a battle to get those sites reserved.

It was beautiful and quiet. Large sites right on the water. Large easy to access picnic tables. Cooking table/ shelf, fire ring, grill and lantern hanger at every site. I like be this place. I just can’t get enough of Petersburg Campground. And the price is better than reasonably.
