Great site! The bathrooms are not as nice as other facilities, but are pretty good.

Great campground with several loops and different options (some tent only spots, some with electricity etc.) in Pisgah National Forest. Hiking and mountain bike trails nearby and Asheville, NC was a short drive away.

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They had my reservation pass ready to go. The area was nice and clean but the fire wood was a little expensive. It was peaceful and very nice. I will definitely be back. Thank you.

Staff were nice, helpful and welcoming. Sites were spread out nicely so you have privacy. We enjoyed our stay and plan to go back soon! We stayed on loop Big John.

Terrific campground and excellent campsites. Lots of space between you and your neighbors. The CG hosts were the best-very helpful and friendly. Really nice trails right in the park. Close proximity to Asheville and Hendersonville and everything those towns have to offer. Wed definitely stay here again.

Beautiful campsites in a wonderful thick hardwood forest bordering a lake . Very quiet and peaceful. Attentive staff maintained clean restrooms and showers. This area is an absolute jewel.

Our tent site was beautiful with tall trees providing privacy and all of the accommodations we needed. We will definitely return to this campground and recommend it to others visiting the Asheville area.

We had a great time, the campsites were huge and rustic. The public bathroom was clean and heated, and the host at the front gate was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Located close to the Blue Ridge Parkway and to Asheville, Lake Powhatan offers a peaceful base camp for exploring the area. Plenty of mountain bike trails are accessible from the campground.
@AntonellaF3611 · Camped on Aug 30, 2020 at Campsite #7
Great campground, nice and large sites, kind and friendly staff. Awesome trails for mountain biking. The Verizon service is very poor and unfortunately it's not possible to reserve the sites from the campground itself, you need to go to the nearest town.
