Absolutely love Bolar Mountain & Lake Moomaw. The water is so clear and beautiful, perfect for swimming and paddle boarding. Our site (54) had beach access and a partial view of the mountains. There is a small marina store nearby if you forget any essentials.

A fantastic spot to get away for a few days or more. The water is as clear as you could hope for. Camp sites could be a little more private but a fantastic experience overall. Be sure to pick up water, ice and firwood on your way in.

From Covington, take 220 North to Hwy 39 and turn left on Hwy 39. Take Hwy 39 to Hwy 600 (Bolars Draft Road) and turn left on Hwy 600 towards the campgrounds. After about 7.5 miles turn right on Twin Ridge Drive for all campgrounds. Stay straight to head towards the store & marina, an overlook of the lake and McClintic Point.
