I only stayed one night here but I loved it! The gate attendants were so nice and helpful. The site I had was very nice and well maintained. Somewhat close to surrounding sites but it still felt private. Bathrooms were nice (I did not use the showers but they were individual rooms). Only negative was my site was pretty narrow. I had a non-electric pull through and the best spot to level it got me pretty close to the picnic table (the base is made of concrete so no moving it) and I could not set out my main awning. Ended up putting my sitting area on the back side of the trailer. Again very minor, if really at all, negative but there are some limitations on site setup. Since I was there only 1 night I didnt do much exploring but Looking Glass Falls in the National Forest was about a 40 minute drive and definitely worth it!

The permanent tent sits on Hardtimes loop have attracted a noisy lot. Competing sites trying to blast music over the top of of each other and children spitting on pedestrians walking the loop. Dogs barking all night... I'll not be back.

Great well kept campground with lots of good things to do. Very close to Asheville, NC, which has loads of breweries, restaurants and stores.

Somehow I managed to pick a great spot online. Loved the campground. Did not realize how popular the Day Use area could get on a hot summer's day. The nearby NC Arboretum was a great way to spend an afternoon. Bike and hiking trails connected the both. The weekday camping crowd was great. Weekend campers by the most part followed the rules.
