Summary
AI generated
Morganton Point campground is highly praised for its cleanliness, well-maintained facilities, and friendly staff, making it a wonderful place for camping by the lake. Many visitors appreciate the peaceful atmosphere and easy access to recreation, including kayaking and swimming. However, some concerns were noted about noise from nearby sites, uneven camping spots, and deep fire pits, which could use improvement for a better experience.
Beautiful campsites that were clean and well maintained. Campsite A had the most stunning view of the sunrise over the lake. The bathrooms were always clean and the camp host were kind, responsive, and helpful.
Hostess was great. Despite some confusion (from old reviews) there is a very clean dump station. Main bath house is new, clean and bright. This is a cool forest on the banks of Lake Blue Ridge so don't expect manicured grass. Nice laid back vibe. Again hostess was very helpful.
When we arrived at the campground we were greeted by a guy that was either the maintenance guy or host. He walked down to myself and handed me a piece of paper and then said with an attitude, “you’re name?!” Told him my name and then he said those are the campground rules turn over on the back there is a number, call it if you need something. I asked him about firewood and if the bundles were fair good size. He said, “ I don’t know, it’s wood!” Then he left. We stayed here an entire week for vacation and it did rain the entire time we were there other than our last day. Overall the campground is nice. But the host definitely needs to be a lot more friendlier to guest and more helpful. Even when walking around or passing him on his golf cart, when we would wave he wouldn't wave back. The main bath house was very nice but the second bath house across from where we were staying was never cleaned the entire time we were there, bugs laying on the floor in the shower, and trash in the trash can piling up. This bathhouse could also use some refurbishment but it’s not bad, just older. Will we return, not sure unless there are much nicer camp host.

We stayed two nights here and there was a very loud group of campers not far away. They made a lot of noise late into the night, both nights, and we were disappointed that the camp manager did nothing about it. This is not the first time this has happened when we've stayed at this campground.
It's a very nice place to camp when the other campers are considerate of their neighbors. Not sure if we'll come back again.

Policies & Rules
Cancellation policy
Reservation fees are non-refundable. For campsites, cabins, lookouts, yurts, group sites, and similar stays, we charge a reservation service fee of $8.
Standard cancellations usually have a $10 cancellation fee. Customers can generally cancel before the check-in date online.
Late cancellation rules differ by stay type.
Individual campsites: cancelling after 12:00am local time the day before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
Cabins, lookouts, and yurts: cancelling less than 14 days before arrival usually means a $10 cancellation fee plus forfeiting the first night's fee.
One-night reservations: a late cancellation usually forfeits the full amount paid, up to the total original reservation cost.
Modifications are allowed before the cut-off window, but fees depend on the change. Changing to dates completely outside the original reservation dates may trigger a $10 change fee. Extending or shortening a stay that still includes original dates usually has no change fee, though refunds may depend on timing and facility rules. Switching to the same type of campsite for the same dates usually has no change fee, but price differences are charged or refunded.
Early departures may or may not be refunded. At certain facilities, partial refunds may be possible if staff can mark the site available for other visitors. No refund is given for a night if the early departure is requested after that day's check-out time.
Security deposits are separate. Security deposits may be refunded to the original payment method if the facility is left in acceptable condition, as determined by the property.
