This is a great campground. We loved being able to hear the river at night.We stayed at a site as far at the end as you can go. Only complaint was the noise of the rd on the other side of the river at times. It was nice having a wonderful bbq restaurant (Hawg Wild), ice cream shop and Walmart so close! We will cone back many times but we will stay away from the rd .

Excellent setting along the Davidson River. Good bathroom and shower facilities. Lots of fishing, hiking, biking, and swimming available, as well as touring nearby waterfalls.

A really good experience, this was a scout trip to determine a camp ground for our family. The camp host, (pink hair) cant remember her name, but she was great and explained everything very well.

Always enjoy Davidson in the springtime before the river warms and tubers and swimmers arrive.

Love being there for leaves changing and all the great hikes. More bicycle room on roads would be good.

Fun campground with access to great hikes, views, waterfalls near by! The spaces were a lot closer together than we thought they would be from looking at the map so you are very close to your neighbors. We went Sunday-Tuesday and were the only ones in our loop Monday night so it wasn't too bad!

Campsite next to me keep me up 2AM. Saw no 24 hour camp ground security and found no way to contact security. The campers in site 117 were forest service contractors that drank and carried on to 2AM, for the two nights I was a site 115 .
