Davidson River Campground is beautifully tucked in the Pisgah forest conveniently located approximately 1 mile from town. My campsite was perfectly located along the hiking trails and river for awesome trout fishing..caught 2 nice size browns; 3 small rainbows. The only negative was route 276 is across the river in the distance causing noise as cars drove by. Will definitely return soon.

Welcome staff was both friendly and helpful. Campsite and bathrooms were clean. Loved being so close to the trail and the water. Fish were jumping!

Awesome site, right next to the river. In between two bathroom sites.

The gate attendant was very helpful and even sent the camp host to help me back up my brand new trailer. I would definitely stay here again. I lucked out and got a spot by the river so the sound lulled me to sleep.I was disappointed that I couldnt drive through to pick my spot. (I hadnt made a reservation beforehand.)The shower had worms in it. And the wash house was in pretty sad shape.

Stayed in Hemlock Loop like I have for the past 15 years. The one bathhouse has been replaced but the other one is in dire need of an upgrade. Also, the drain under the water faucet near site 117 has been partially plugged for YEARS. In a heavy rain, site 117 can flood from the backed up water in this drain. ( I know this from experience!) Overall, Davidson Campground is an excellent place to stay, especially if you have kids. I like the security the campground provides. It would be nice to have more power sites on this loop.

Very nice campsite. We had a good time, close to hikes, and a good fire pit to cook on.

Spent a week here. Beautiful campground with easy access to great hiking and biking trails. Close enough to Asheville and the Biltmore estate for day trips, it rained a bit while we were here. Campsites are large and laid out in such a way that in the summer months your neighbors are invisible. Really enjoyed our stay.

The campsite was nice, well kept. However, it needs to be made more clear that firewood isnt being sold. The website says firewood is for sale at the camp site. The FS also promotes not moving firewood due to pest movement. So, next time firewood isnt for sale, make it known on the website. Im very glad the grocery store had some.
