Curtis Creek Campground (NC)

The pit toilets were truly the cleanest pit toilets ever. The camper sites are very close together and there was some resulting dog drama among our neighbors. But the mountain biking right down the road was great. The camp host was very kind. There is no cell service and he made sure to let us know he had a land line if we had any issues at all or needed a phone.

no host ,but very clean campsites but the bathrooms need attention on a daily basics the smell was pretty bad in the hottest part of the day but we love going to curtis creek campground its close to home and we can go home everyday and feed our chickens and make sure everything is okay at home

Great campground! Peaceful and beautiful.

Nice Off Grid Camping. Gnats were bad in the vault toilets. Campground hosts do NOT do a good job of keeping up the reservation placards at individual sites. I'm certain some camping opportunities are not available due to placards not being updated.

The first evening and day were quite good. But on the second evening, an inconsiderate mob consisting of six campsites took over Curtis Creek. They allowed their children to write obscenities on the bathroom doors/trash cans and did not observe camp quiet hours at 10 pm. I've camped at the same exact Curtis Creek campsite for the same dates for five years. This was easily my family's worse experience there. We may not be back next year.

The campsites are fairly close to each other (so we definitely exchanged noise with neighbors), but the location is wonderful. The vault toilets are about what you’d expect, though the one closest to us needs peeling paint stripped. Still, everything is laid out well, and it makes great use of the natural resources of the location. I’ll look forward to visiting again.

Overall, a good place to camp and get away from it all! Very quiet, with a secluded feel. I was at the end of the tents only section. All alone down there, very near the creek. I could tell the camp host and maintenance folks take pride in their work—place was clean and tidy.

Great campsite very large, & Spread out.
This was our second time vamping @ Curtis Creek And both were excellent

Great Campsite! Booking online was easy, site and grounds were very clean. And the staff that I met (cleaner and road work crew) were all super friendly and informative. There are some great roads to motorcycle on whether it be on tar or dual sport. I didn't get to hike much around the campsite but will definitely be back for more of that. It was a nice drive over to Mt. Mitchell for my high point hike and was nice to be far enough away from the bigger sites. Even though the campground was full on the weekend everyone was respectful of noise and it was pleasant. And all but me and 2 others cleared out on Sunday so Monday was almost completely empty.

We absolutely LOVE camping in Curtis Creek. We stayed in site 4–creek access, short walk to a bathroom, and pretty private. There is endless hiking in some of the most beautiful woods I’ve seen. Can’t wait to come back!
