When registering online I got a campsite that was handicap but was not marked as being handicap online. Got there late at night and no tent pad. Please mark online which is handicap sites with no pads.

I love this campground - it’s an easy drive from Asheville and it feels like a world away.
Clean toilets, easy access to each camp spot.
One of my favorite places to Get Away

Great campground right next to a creek, clean facilities, the camp ground host was great, hiking trails within walking distance. Had one of the best trips in going there! Will definitely be back!

The campground was beautiful! The creek was wide and cold and perfect for relaxing in after our ride down from the Mitchell Summit. The attendant was kind and kept the grounds very clean.
The trail systems surrounding the grounds are second to none. Some rolling and meandering. Others were just plain brutal as they were beautiful.
Overall an excellent experience.
