This is a beautiful campground, draped in lush foliage. We stayed at site D11 with a fully covered tent pad under low-hanging trees. Each site has its own food locker. The showers and bathrooms were clean and comfortable. From the campground, countless trails connect to the larger trails of the Pisgah National Forest. I accessed the trail to summit Mt. Pisgah from a trailhead only a few sites from ours.
There was no electricity at the site we stayed.
It was incredibly rainy, and pouring for the three days and two nights we stayed. Neither the tent pad nor the site flooded, however. Good drainage.
The Pisgah Inn is just across the street along with a camp store. You can get just about anything you need including prepared food.

Mount Pisgah Campground was awesome! The restroom facilities were well maintained, the campground was quiet and the rangers and hosts very helpful! We are looking forward to going again! Highly recommended.

Love this campground, we’ve camped here a few times and every time we come it’s been wonderful! Quiet campground, spacious sites, beautiful area, trails lead right from the grounds, camp store nearby, rangers close by for questions if needed. Plenty of bathrooms and showers available. Right off the blue ridge parkway, easily accessible. We love this area!

Some sites are better than others. Ours was nice (C19). It was recommended by somebody else. Not quite big enough for our screenhouse but it really wasn't needed. There are tons of things to do and see if you are an outdoor enthusiast. Devils Courthouse, Black Balsam, Graveyard Fields and Cradle of Forestry are all nearby. Dupont State Forest is also very close by

Had a great visit to Mt Pisgah Campground. It was a little rough start trying to find a level site, but we are newbies and finally figured out how to find the most level part of an unlevel site. It is a lovely shaded campground. The bathrooms were clean. The Park ranger Lucinda and the site host Mark were very helpful helping us to figure it all out. There are a couple of convenient hiking trails right near the campground and many others not far away. Cell phone coverage is spotty, yet some nights we were able to read email and send texts. Most of all it was 58 degrees in the mornings in August!

Camp hosts were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed talking to them. Our campsite was maintained pretty well. We had trees/bushes on 3 sides so we had pretty good privacy. There was plenty of room for the tent, a hammock, sitting around the fire, and we had our main tent set up in the bed of the truck. The parking spot backed into the site which was perfect for the truck tent. We were near 2 bathrooms. The one for our loop was okay and did not have a shower. The other loop had a bathroom with a shower and seemed much cleaner/newer. The shortcut trail to the store was not too far from this site either. It did rain a lot the weekend we were there, but it didn't stop us from getting a couple of hikes in. The campground had starting points for the Frying Pan and the Mount Pisgah trails that we ended up doing. We would definitely stay here again and at the same site.
