The access to the water feet from the campsites is really nice. The campground host was very nice, especially to our toddler son! Several of our neighbors in the campground did get their E Bikes and tools stolen overnight. So I would suggest locking your stuff as they have a thief in the area.

During the night our electric bikes and tools were stolen. Very disappointed that the campground does not have a camera at the gate, as we are confident it was someone who came in to the campground during the night.

If you are looking for a nice, clean campground with amazing camp hosts then you have to visit Long Shoal. We camp here at least 13 times a year and never have any issues. Love all the sites and the quiet atmosphere.

Policies & Rules
Arrival & departure
- A camping permit is required and must be obtained at the park booth. Limits apply to equipment and vehicle parking.
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.
