I enjoy camping in walk in sites. However, the name of this campground is at best, aspirational. There are only mature loblolly pines, no longleaf. Longleaf pines have been planted, especially in the field between the campground and group site, but they are still very young. It would have been nice to have had closer water access.

Nice facilities. Pleasantly empty (in January). Several elk in the closed camp areas in the morning and the south of the river was great to sleep to.

We enjoyed our stay at long leaf campground. Wish there was running water there, but it's easy enough to get water down at the visitor center. Loved the shade and ease of finding kindling on the ground for a fire.

A wonderful campsite. Loved all the trees and it was a much shorter walk to my car. Can't wait to stay here again

Honestly, the campground sites are packed together tightly. The site I was in had no high spots and I woke up in a three-inch deep puddle. A great deal of the park was closed due to flooding. But, I have good gear and had a great evening hike on what wasn't submerged on the boardwalk. I bought a new hiking stick that was cheaper than the one I had passed up, but was still thinking about, on Skyline Drive. I loved it and will return someday because I forgot to get my Passport stamped.

Clean campground at an awesome park! Sites are sort of close together, but seem fairly private when trees have leafed out. Site was well taken care of.
