Love this campground as a place to get outside, ride bikes and feel like Im away from it all, though its convenient to all things Asheville has to offer.

Nice wooded private campsites. All the hosts were excellent! Lots of places to hike. Close to Ashville restaurants, groceries, etc. Plan to go again and stay longer.

Lake Powhatan is so much better than years past. It is cleaner and upkeep seems better than the last few years. It is so convenient to Arboretum, trails, grocery store and downtown Asheville. We love Lake Powhatan!
Cell/internet is spotty and no service at alot of sites. This is good and bad....due to family situations and job, so wish service was better. Could Internet/wifi be an option?
Also, checking reservation site, always shows most sites booked. We have always seen open sites as we have been camping, but reservation site says "reserved". Don't know if there is a way to address. Also, years ago, there was always a few spots available for "first come first serve". This would be such a good option for traveling thru or local people!

We LOVE Lake Powhatan! It is close to shopping, food, grocery store, all the TRAILS! The current staff is friendly and welcoming. Parkway is close and so much to explore... would like for it to remain somewhat "unknown", as this is a JEWEL ??
Now, if you need cell service, it is very hit and miss! May have to walk to get service, which is so not understandable considering how close to Asheville and the Airport!

Our favorite campground in the Asheville area. Close to Blue Ridge Parkway is a big plus! Just returned and made reservations already for next year! We like being near the BRP and all the views to see and places to hike, including Devil's Courthouse, Cradle of Forestry, Pisgah Inn to eat with amazing views and waterfalls.

This was a beautiful location. Negative was you have no reception for internet or phone. The beach was also smaller than expected. But overall we had an excellent time!

#46 was a good spot and easy to back a 35' trailer in. Some spots are tight for trailers as round is narrow and not room for maneuver. Spaces would be nicer if the grass was mowed. Spaces have privacy with bushes and trees separating from your neighbor. Staff was friendly, but lacking in knowledge of park. We were directed into the wrong section but found our space on our own. Signage was good.

Beautiful site which was also private. Lots of hiking trails and easy drive to Biltmore.
