Holly Bay Campground is a great spot, clean, well‑kept, and right on Laurel River Lake. The campsites are spacious and wooded, the hosts are friendly, and the water is incredibly clear. It’s perfect if you’re looking for a quiet place to relax, hike, or get out on the lake.

The campsites are large and beautiful. Enjoy walking the trails by the water. The restrooms are clean and the camp hosts are so friendly. Bring your boat as the water is large. Down the road you can lay on the beach and enjoy the water in a different way. Have never had a bad time
