Davidson River

We love Davidson! The campsites are spaced out well so that you do not feel crowded, and most are very shaded keeping tents cooler! We love the proximity to Brevard and stores while also feeling like you are truly out in the middle of nowhere. Phone service is spotty, but again, that’s something we love!

As always the campsite was very clean when I arrived. The staff here even cleans the old coals out of the fire pits. The hot showers here are always welcome after 4 or 5 nights of camping. The best thing about staying here is you're camping in Pisgah National Forest, but you can drive 5 minutes and be in Brevard for a hot meal, music or a cold beverage if you want to indulge in more modern conveniences.

Definitely my new favorite campground. Very clean, private bathrooms and showers in the bathhouse. Very close to a large number of trails and only a short trip further to Dupont, Gorges and the BRP. We also enjoyed the trailheads from the campground. The location made it easy to grab food and ice from nearby Brevard. We are on Verizon and found it possible to text from our campsite to get weather updates as there is not a WiFi spot in the campground. The Pisgah Visitors Center across the road has an excellent gift shop and information available on trail conditions.

Lovely, well run campground. Staff was friendly, welcoming and helpful. Facilities were clean and well maintained. Excellent access to Pisgah Ranger Station and trails in the area. I spent some time fishing along the Davidson river which was beautiful. Highly recommended.

Stayed in site 21. Reasonably close to restrooms. quiet. Always enjoy staying at Davidson River.

Always a favorite! We go at least twice every summer!

What a great campground! Beautiful setting with lots to see and do. Facilities are in good shape.

I love this campground. The only difficulty we had was that we had reserved two sites, probably only needing one (I should have cancelled one of them before we came, but that’s on me), and there was a big group essentially squatting in site 30. Our part fit just fine in site 28, but I was disappointed that the group in 30 apparently lied when they told me that they’d “paid in the box” for that site when I mentioned that I had it reserved. I was pleased with the refund we got for the second night, but am concerned with what would have happened had we arrived with only one site reserved, and found it full of squatters. That seems to be a liability of the late check in process, or lack the roof.

Right on Davidson River for tuning and fishing
Staff are friendly and helpful, however loop Dogwood, camp host could do a much better job with the bathhouse! We went to two other bathhouse onsite and they were very clean

Great time at a lovely campground. Fellow campers were courteous and warm showers an absolute treat. Proximity to bike trails can't be beat!
