Camp Misty Mount

Cabin #25, Jun 4-6, 2022. Really a great experience, but be aware, the cabins are truly rustic (although they have outlets and a ceiling fan). The pictures you see on line are accurate. Recommend you arrive in the daylight for a couple of reasons. First off, it helps to get a lay-of-the-land (which is hilly) because you'll potentially be walking after dark. After you drop your gear at your cabin, you'll need to move your car to the parking area and then walk back to your cabin. Depending on where you are this can be a quarter-mile or so, but the walk is pretty dark after sunset, which by the way comes earlier than expected due to the thick forest. The second reason to arrive early is to use the broom to remove cobwebs and so forth from your cabin. Firewood is close-by with wagons to help move the wood. Rangers are great, and they have 'ranger volunteers' to assist after hours as needed. Bring a plastic table cloth for the picnic tables. They need to be power washed, and this is really the only serious recommendation I would make. So I hope someone will read this. You really didn't want to sit down on the benches or put anything on the bare table. The pool is very nice but you may want to bring your own lawn chairs. It is fully handicap accessable to include ramps into the water-top. Final couple of points: Be sure you stop by the Visitors Center one mile south on Rt 77. Good maps, facilities, water, and local area orientation; and be sure to use the hiking trails. They're short, medium, and long to fit your skills. But they're a lot of fun and we found them generally uncrowded. Enjoy the experience.

Beautiful cabins, beautiful woods, easy check in and check out, nice pool, clean bathrooms, not too crowded. Felt extremely safe as a solo female traveler

Very well maintained facilities and friendly staff. Especially enjoyed the pool in the upper part of the camp!

Always a great time in Lodge 42.

Despite persistent rain showers, we had a great time! My only recommendation is that before opening for the season, I'd like to have seen the carpet of leaves cleaned up and wood chips spread, at least around the fire rings. After a day or so, with all the rain, there was a lot of mud. Otherwise, the cabins were in great shape, and everyone was impressed with the new restrooms. We went on a couple of short hikes, and you can't miss checking out Cunningham Falls. Tim and Kim were excellent hosts, and the rangers and park staff were very friendly and helpful. All in all, a memorable experience that I highly recommend!

Scenic cabins and friendly hosts

Loved this. Park rangers were so kind to my son. All staff were friendly and the cabins were clean. This is the only campground I’ve been to with free firewood. My only complaint was the route to my cabin was extremely rocky but that’s nature.

We had such high hopes for Camp Misty Mount. We'd set aside the one weekend of the spring/summer we could take a vacation together and booked Cabin #27. We stayed only one night. The cabin reeked of mildew and the mattresses were like damp sponges, seeping through sleeping bags, clothes and leaving us clammy with skin crawling. Just an appalling experience. I recognize that this is a national park and was not expecting a luxury experience, but I had assumed a basically habitable shelter. A tent would have been far preferable. We slept on the floor and left first thing. Wrote to the camp manager to let them know, ask about possibility of a partial refund, but no response. Camp Mouldy Mildew: Avoid.

What a gem. Simple cabins in an idyllic setting. Cant wait to go back.

What a magical place. I can’t wait to return.
