No water at the sites but plenty of spigots around. There is a freshwater hose (in addition to black tank flush) at the dump station to fill up the RV on the way in.

We enjoy staying at Arrowhead Campground when visiting the Uwharrie National Forest. It is generally quiet during the week but fills up fast when Friday/Saturday rolls around. The sites are nice & we love the wooded setting. However, a little tree trimming maintenance would be nice in places. The last site we stayed in (#35) was kind of tight, at the entrance, due to a dead, vine covered tree. We bring an off road vehicle in addition to our truck & trailer. The dead tree made getting it parked next to our truck a little tricky. I would also recommend having good blocks for the leveling jacks as this site has quite a bit of slope to it. On a side note, I was very disappointed at the amount of trash we saw around the lake! Especially along the unpaved trail that starts at the boat launch & hugs the shoreline. Next time we visit we're going to bring extra trash bags & gloves so we can have a family walk/clean up day. All in all we had a great time hiking the trails, 4 wheeling & taking in the scenery of the Uwharrie National Forest. We would highly recommend this campground!

Policies & Rules

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.
