We love the campground but this is the second time we’ve had roof damage as we drove in or out. It’s ridiculous the amount of trees hanging low! The black pine trees as you enter about 1/2 mile in are the worst but there are so many we have to swerve around but now you can’t even miss them! I have to have my roof fixed where the limb cut the top nearly all the way down! This is the 2nd repair due to the negligence of clearing the trees off the top hanging! Those pines are rough and don’t bend! They also damaged the antenna cover! It cost me $800 this trip! Do better Corps of Engineers at Doll Mtn!

This was our first visit to Doll Mountain Campground on Site 24. My first issue was the site levelness. It was the worse I've experienced. We have a Beech Lanel Bluetooth Leveling System, and it is great to use and accurate. Levelness is important to anyone like us the has an Ammonia type refrigerator. Unless they are level they will not get cold enough and if allowed to operate for even just 20 minutes not level can permanently ruin the cooling unit. When we arrived at site 24 the Be ech Lane showed passenger side was 6-1/2" low. My Andersen Leveling Blocks can provide up to 4" lift so had to add 2x8 wood block too. Unfortunately, the blocks would constantly slip in the gravel. Took about an hour and half to finally get level by resulting to digging out the driver side a few inches so I could use just the Andersen blocks on passenger side. I've never experienced a site anywhere this crooked side to side.
Our second surprise was bug bites that increased each day. At first, we couldn't understand what was biting us because we never saw the bugs but boy did, they itch and turn red. After research we found we were bitten by Chiggers. Our son visited us one afternoon and he ended up with ten bites. Each day of our 6 day visit we got more bites so we headed home a day early.
Many sites are spaced far apart but hardly any access to the lake except the boat ramp. Because of the poorly leveled site and Chigger bites, doubt we will return here. If you do stay on site 24, I suggest you dig out a few inches of gravel on the driver side so you can reduce the lift need on passenger side. Hopefully the park will spray or something to rid the Chigger bugs.
