Morganton Point

We camped here for memorial day weekend. The lake was beautiful and a great opportunity for kids. We also went into Blue Ridge for hiking and to go on the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway. Definitely a good expereience. The bathrooms were also very well kept and they had firewood for purchase at the campsite.

Most Sites were not really appropriate for 30 ft camper trailers. Our site was very uneven and steep. Our view was really pretty, but woe to anyone getting off the path/road or outside the immediate site area. Poison Ivy everywhere!! Watch where your children and pets walk or wander. Also, the website kept mentioning the availability of full hook ups. Our sweet hosts said there were maybe only one or two sites with that feature. The website needs to be clearer on exactly what features each site actually has. Bathrooms were clean and sites were clean.

Kat was an excellent park attendant as where all the employees! We have booked our next in October.

Beautiful campground, great weather , well managed . I’ve been camping at Morganton Point for 28 years and it never disappoints

Nice campground Very clean

The map of the park is incorrect on Recreation.gov compared to the actually park. I would not have booked the site 21 if I had known it was next to 2 host sites, 1 manager site, an office and a dump station. The activity back and forth by the manager and hosts made my camping experience the worst ever.

We have been going to Morganton Point for, literally, decades and always enjoy it so much. The restrooms were very well-kept, and, although the campground was literally full, it was quiet and peaceful. I noticed electric bikes this time after being told electric stuff was not allowed, so I hope the rules are loosening to allow electric golf carts as that would really help us older disabled folks to get around to enjoy the nature scenes more easily. Please consider it. Thanks.

Excellent location; prices have gone up this year. Almost $50/night for a site is high for a stay in a national park.

Very quiet. Peaceful. Awakened by the Cardinals in the woods. The hosts were super friendly and helpful.

The restrooms/showers were immaculate. They would give Bucees a run for the money. You could imagine a porter ready to hand you a towel and a spray of cologne as you left the restrooms.

The boat ramp is a different story. First, there is a curb separating the lanes on the narrow ramp. Very difficult to line up with the ramp, as there is very little room to turn your truck and trailer onto the ramp. Get rid of the curb. Otherwise, a very nice campground.

Nice and peaceful
