Had a wonderful time even if it did rain off and on on the first full day I was there. The second full day my dog and I got a lot of hiking in. Hated to leave the next day. Will be back for a longer stay in the future.

We always enjoy Holly Bay campground. Our host Patty was delightful.
The one thing that would be great, is if they had certain sites that were only for long term campers, (2 weeks) it's always so hard to get a site for us retirees. All the weekends are booked, so it's hard to get a site, without having to reserve 6 months ahead of time.
Otherwise, we are very pleased. We stayed in H 12 it was a great site. Only problem was the table was in need to be replaced.
We absolutely will go again.

I love camping at Holly Bay.
My only issue is that there is a need to add another dump station. Most campers check out on Sunday and with only 1 dump station the wait is extremely long.

Nice campground with larger sites. Facilities are old, but well maintained.
Dump Station DESPERATELY needs to be upgraded! There is only 1 single sided Dump Station for 75+ RV sites. I would not want to have to wait for that single sided facility on a busy weekend.
