Lake Powhatan

The campground is kept well. The sites are spacious and private. We really enjoyed our time here!

Very nice campground! Shady and quiet!

Clean restrooms, excellent staff

The campground is always clean and we'll managed, and the staff is always friendly. Cell service is limited so plan accordingly.

Simply a nice campground. Aside from some early morning traffic, it was quiet. We hiked the Hard Times Trail which abuts the campground so we didn’t have to drive. The bear boxes at each site are spacious; we were able to fit a portable blackstone griddle, camp stove, two totes, a roadie YETI cooler, and a soft-sided cooler into this. The campground is well shaded giving relief from the hot sun.

Very quiet with little to no internet.

Really helpful and nice campground hosts and staff at this campground. We always love coming here and will return. Our campsite 041 was great. It was mostly level and clean. There was a bear that had been seen walking through the adjacent campground (043) a couple of times but we did not get to see it. The area is a bear sanctuary, so be prepared and store your food and coolers either in your car or RV.

The camphost and staff at this campground are very nice and helpful. This site was large enough for our suburban and 23' camper trailer. It was level. The only downside was not having water and sewer hookup but the bathouse was very close by so it made up for the inconvience. The campsite is gravel based. It was close to others, not very private and several times people would walk through our site because they could not figure out where the trail was to the bath house.

We loved the location, it had tons of hiking, swimming and had local business near by. The staff was very friendly. We will definitely be camping there again.

Such a great campground so close to all of the activities and attractions near Asheville. You can do day trips for tourism or e joy the trails and creeks right there.
