Great camping spit and short hike to lake. Caught lots of trout.

Beautiful campground with well spaced sites. Our site had full hook ups and it was level and very pretty.

Easy check in. Great campground.

Quiet, peaceful, well maintained and clean. We had an exceptional stay at Lake Powhatan- easy step off for Pisgah NF, Asheville, or the BRP.

We have come to Lake Powhatan to camp several times in the past few years even though it is nearly a 5-hr drive for us pulling the camper. I love the proximity to the Arboretum and thevBlue Ridge Pky. Also enjoyed the Ashville Bitsnical gardens on a previous trip - a real gem. Another big plus is full hook-ups in the Lakeside loop which makes it much easier for a longer stay.

Beautiful campground! Staff here were so friendly and welcoming. The sites were large and private. You can hike lots of trails and around the lake directly from the campground. We didn’t use the bathhouse facilities so I can’t speak to those. Great experience our first time out in our travel trailer!

Check in was fast and efficient. Everything at the campsite was in good working order.

One of the best camping adventures ever! Great campsites. Bath houses super clean. Great staff!

Beautiful campgrounds nestled in the woods. Close access to Asheville and all the local amenities. The Arboretum is next door, making it an awesome trip for a day.

Trails are plentiful and well maintained. The sites are private and the hosts are extremely friendly.

Very quiet and relaxing campground. Good trails to hike. Bathrooms kept extremely clean.

I'm one person, very quiet, never leave trash behind. I have paid $45 almost a dozen times this summer to stay there. The nature is beautiful but the tattooed militant woman at front gate makes me not want to return
@AlvinA325 · Camped on Jul 25, 2021 at Campsite #48
Very clean. Staff was helpful within and outside of park
@AnitaG443 · Camped on May 11, 2021 at Campsite #48
The campsites are spaced apart nicely. The size of some of the sites is restricted. We have a small travel trailer and there was no space to set up our Clam (unless we put it over the picnic table). Very clean restrooms. Great location if you want to spend time in Asheville.
@RICHARDJ358 · Camped on Apr 22, 2021 at Campsite #48
Love it here - nice level site (#48). Nice spacing between sites. Love Arboretum and BRP right next door.
@CurtisP753 · Camped on Apr 10, 2021 at Campsite #48
so peaceful
friendly campers and staff
@CherylL283 · Camped on Apr 5, 2021 at Campsite #48
Best place to camp. Can’t wait to go back.

Beautiful place; wish the road was just a little wider to maneuver RVs.
