Clean but dated facility. Lots of space between campsites. Plenty of hiking opportunities directly from the campground.

The bath house needs soap for handwashing that was very in sanitary

Site was great, nice views over the lake. Bathrooms/showers clean and spacious. Only issue had to do with the reservation system, arriving to find someone in my space. After talking to camp host, it sounds like this is quite common these days and lack of funding is making it worse. I'll definitely be back.

We had a wonderful time. It was off season so the campground wasn't full which gave us some privacy. The host was very helpful when we arrived. There are lots trails for every level of hiker. Will definitely be going back. Just be sure to take what you need. Kinda a ways to a store.

Arrowhead never disappoints. The restroom and shower facilities are always well maintained and incredibly clean, and the camp host is always so happy to have you visit. Ive been camping at this place for 20+ years, and it will always hold a very sweet spot in my heart.

Arrowhead Campground is a great spot for camping! This time we had a camper, but camper, tent, hammock, doesn't matter...Arrowhead is great! The host is very kind and helpful, the bathhouse is clean and well maintained, and the sites are very good. Great for offroaders using the OHV trails, boaters/fishing at Badin Lake, or just getting lost in the woods for a while.

uwharrie is one of my favorite places and since i bought a camper Arrowhead is also one of my favorite campgrounds. I travel up there from Charleston SC with the group SC Jeepers and it is always the best time.

Love this campground. It rained all weekend but it was fun. The neighbors were a bit loud after midnight but it was a great time.

Going to Arrowhead CG during the middle of the week in the Beginning of November was the absolute best time. Weather was great and there were not many sites with anyone in them. There were people that had some loud 4wds but you only heard them as they were coming back from or leaving to use the off road trails and were not a concern at all. Although the govt was in the middle of their shutdown, the staff still worked to keep things clean and open. I will be back but during the off season as I understand that they are very busy during peak seasons. The hiking trails were fantastic.
Excellent

We camped with motor home and several street legal off road vehicles. Friends and family had a great time! Shower house is still very nice and kept clean. Grab a map at the Outpost and enjoy exploring the area.

Nice campground, sites are somewhat small but to be expected. Really the only reason its not 5 stars is because the lack of water hookup. Would be a top notch hunting camp if you had water hookups at the site. Other then that, I definitely enjoyed the site we were in. Close to the bath house so that definitely helped. Would be nice if they were a little warmer.

We decided to primitive camp at this campground. All of the primitive campsites are located right on top of one another and have poor spots to pitch a tent. Nothing was relatively flat, so we had to make do. It is also located right next to the main road that leads down to a boat ramp, and a hiking trail runs directly through the campsite. They are located right next to the bathrooms and showers, which means you can hear and watch every single camper come to the facilities. There was also a massive group of people present who decided to blast music, yell, and party until well past 2 am. The campground host/manager did nothing, and no one was controlling the quiet hours. I will definitely stay at another campground next time.

Very nice paved campground would have been nicer if you didnt have that little bit of gravel to have to get on and get your camper all nasty.

We had a great time! The sites were clean as were the bath houses. My dad took us camping here as little girls so my sister and I took him for his 78th Birthday.

The campground is in a beautiful setting. For the most part the campsites are well planned out for privacy. We have enjoyed this Arrowhead for many years; however, this year the bathrooms were not as clean as in years past, and the area around the trash receptacle was filthy with an abandoned mattress and trash strewn around it giving off a terrible odor.

A+ in my book. Will be going back a lot

The campground was very clean, plenty of space between your neighbors, and the restrooms were reasonably clean. Absolutely will be staying at this location again.

I camp at Uwharrie at least a couple times a year. Sometimes in a dispersed site but often at either Badin Lake or Arrowhead. Arrowhead is a great little campground. The host was friendly and helpful and i enjoyed getting to talk with him a bit. We had a great weekend camping at Arrowhead and will definitely be back soon.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
