Great camping spot with private sites. Much to do in the surrounding area. We go every year, multiple times.

Fort Hamby is quiet, well-kept, clean and beautiful! The spots are mostly shaded from what we could see. There plenty of outdoor activity to experience. I don't know about the bathhouse because we didn't use their facilities. I definitely will go back. It was very serene and the camp hosts were great!

Very peaceful and relaxing. All facilities in excellent condition. Staff very friendly and helpful. Convenient to Wilkesboro yet the park feels like deep woods. Our favorite park in North Carolina.

Great campground, very clean and quiet. Roads through park are hilly, but sites (where rv's sit) are level and roomy. Will definitely come back. Staff was friendly and helpful.
