Morganton Point

Campsites were well spaced and convenient

Morganton Point campground is a peaceful setting amid trees and boasts several campgrounds with lake views in a 'get-away from the hustle and bustle' type of location. Our site was spacious with a steep access drive and was visible from several other campsites. While it appears that some recent gravel work was added to several sites, the roads through through the grounds need potholes repaired. In the week that I stayed, I had very little interaction with the camp host, but did rouse someone at the somewhat dilapidated host trailer when the main bath, a spacious facility, completely ran out of toilet paper. While Morganton, itself, isn't much of a tourist destination, we found some touristy experiences around the towns of Blue Ridge and Ellijay. The lake looked like a great destination for kayaks or fishing. In all, the campground met my expectations for a scenic location.

Don't go. This place has nothing to offer. The host, FIND, is an absolute incompetent mess. There were dogs running loose in the campground, pit bull dogs to be particular. We feared for the safety of our children in multiple ways for multiple legitimate reasons. We will NEVER stay at a campground hosted by FIND again!

Perfect quiet spot with plenty of elbow room and views of the lake. Staff are very helpful and the facilities are tidy.

Mostly quiet campground - we camp during the week, no holidays or weekends. Very clean and updated bathhouse. Clean grounds and friendly staff. Some of the best sites are hard to come by as they are always booked. They are fixing the road on the older section but there are still holes and washout places - you just have to go slow. It's close to home for us (40-45 min away), but our favorite for now. Make sure you have a long electric cord for the odd site that would require more than 25'. Sites 6 and 7 are nice but in order to get out you either have to back up the road to the corner or turn around in the parking lot for the tent camping section (which might be a problem if there are a lot of tent campers when you are leaving). There might be other options if you are experienced in maneuvering a travel trailer (as we do). But 5th wheels, Class C, etc. may be different and not have a problem with the turning radius.

Very nice quiet CG. Not a fan of constantly pushing a button for the shower but it was a decent shower. Bathhouse is nice & clean. Hosts are awesome. Site 8 & 15 are the hardest to back into.... definitely recommend this CG.
