We had a beautiful campsite in the shade and overlooking the Lake Moomaw. The breeze off the lake kept the camping area cool. The condition of the campsite was very good. We camped during the week at the end of the summer and the campground was more empty than it was full which was nice and quiet with few power boats on the lake. By Thursday evening, the camp was filling up as campers were starting to come in for the weekend. The only complaint was that camp store was not open and camp host, although very friendly and helpful, had very little information regarding the numerous trails in the area. It is possible that the fee station at the entrance may have had more information about trails, but it also was not open. We did hike to the island overlook which we highly recommend. It is a beautiful vista. Lake Moomaw has little to no cell coverage which on one hand is awesome. Great to be off the grid. On the other hand, we could not look up trail information from our campsite. So, if you plan to hike, do the research first. Trails were labeled and the one we hiked was also well marked. The shower and the bathroom were kept clean. Not much more to say but looking forward to a return visit....with our canoe!

Nice, clean, and quiet campground. Close to the lake.

I am curious if others have experienced mysterious cases of food poisoning this year?

My friends and I both came down with severe cases on separate trips within two weeks of each other. We have reason to believe that our illness may be related to consuming the ice we purchased at Mountain Grove General Store. I do not intend to harm the livelihood of this business but given the remote nature of this campground and the severity of illness we experienced, I felt it was something that folks should take into consideration when purchasing ice here. Please note: only those of us who consumed the ice got sick.
