A large family seems to be living there and took the whole family, including well into teen year boys, into the womens bathroom. We never saw a host to speak about this matter, and believe they were part of the host family. There a week and never saw the host at all. Family bathroom was filthy. Sites were nice. Location was nice. Need some attention to details and kick out current host joke.

Sites and location were great. Bathhouse was clean. Plenty of water and trash locations. Generally quiet. Weather was not very cooperative though and we packed up and left a day early.

The campground was remote and very peaceful. Facilities were well kept.

Always a great place to camp. Camp sites are great. Bathrooms are always clean.

The campground site and bath facilities were clean and maintained. Have stayed here several times in a tent while riding the OHV trails in our Jeep. Will stay here again

A nice, quiet site. Could just make out the lake through the trees, and the trail provided a leisurely stroll with lake views.

Very pretty campground and most campsites were shaded under the large canopy of trees. Although the campground is electric only, they made it very easy to dump and fill up potable water if needed. The dump station and potable water fill up station were separate and very clean. Because of the natural landscape most of the sites are not level, so bring some leveling equipment if you are in an RV. There was so much to do in Uwharrie National Forest such as walking and hiking trails, off road/ATV trails, mountain bike trails, horse trails, as well as kayaking, boating, or fishing on Badin Lake. We visited the Welcome Center in Troy and they were very helpful with giving recommendations on hikes in the Uwharrie Forest to see waterfalls as well as good places to eat in town.

Has a walkway that leads perfectly to the bath house

Arrowhead is always a great place to camp.
@DavidS3927304 · Camped on Feb 27, 2025 at Campsite #40
No hot water showers unfortunately. The loop trail was good
@JamesK1667053 · Camped on Feb 23, 2025 at Campsite #15
Nice area but campsites are unlevel. Nice spacious bath house, seemed fairly clean, but no hand soap at all.
@JoanK2296862 · Camped on Feb 3, 2025 at Campsite #40
Nice campground.
@LieuenJE589651 · Camped on Jan 13, 2025 at Campsite #40
The trail around the campground is beautiful. The sites are large and have privacy. Most sites are not level. The road into the campground is so bad that we will not return with our camper until the road is repaired.
@TomC6900040 · Camped on Dec 30, 2024 at Campsite #35
Nice little campground. Most sites are large, a few have a bit of a slope, so larger rigs may be harder to level. Nice view of the lake from many spots, good trails to wander the woods.

Ive camped here several times in the past year and since the electric camp host named Don left it has gone downhill. Used to he would clean the sites the day before they were reserved and blow the leaves off. The bathrooms were clean and tidy. He would interact with the people staying and was friendly. The guy they moved from the non electric sites to the electric sites now doesnt do anything. The sites were trashed, the bathrooms looked like they hadnt been touched in months, and the only time I saw the host was when he was driving his Tahoe around with his strobes on. Overall after losing Don as a host the electric sites have gone downhill. Its a shame because the campground is close and convenient for a weekend getaway. I feel like part of reserving a site includes making sure its at least blown off or clean so it doesnt pose a fire hazard right at the fire pit. He doesnt even write the reservation names on the signs on the site posts. Over all the experience has declined.

We had such a wonderful, memorable 3 day stay. It was quiet. People were friendly but not intrusive, and it was the perfect peaceful get away we needed. The bathrooms were clean and functional. They have paved paths to walk around and take in nature. Would definitely go back.
@JeremiahL11763 · Camped on Nov 21, 2024 at Campsite #10
The best state park so far
@MarkH6047851 · Camped on Nov 19, 2024 at Campsite #38
Great spot, big enough for my 10' trailer, truck and maybe 1 other vehicles or a longer trailer.
@stevenU9EF5890 · Camped on Nov 13, 2024 at Campsite #15
Only stayed one night. Only complaint is site was a little unlevel.
@JasonE4196576 · Camped on Nov 10, 2024 at Campsite #25
Stayed at site 25. Family of 4 tent camping. Plenty of space, nice and quiet at night with woods all around. Has drinking water access and garbage bins across the site. Garbage area was neat and clean, bathrooms were decent and water was warm for showers. This was our 5th visit here and look forward to coming back next year.
@JanetC4565717 · Camped on Nov 8, 2024 at Campsite #18
The site felt private, felt a bit more spread out than most campgrounds. Easy access to drinking water. The bathrooms were clean and were an easy walk from our site. We hiked the 5.6 mile look and it felt like a moderate trail. We had a great time!
@GregoryD246439 · Camped on Nov 7, 2024 at Campsite #10
The campground was nice overall, we were on campsite site 10. It's marked as a handicap site, but was very uneven & not flat, also the ground had a washed-out gully that was a tripping hazard. The gully was 5 to 6 inches deep and almost 2 feet wide . . . . it needs repairing, if someone was in a wheel-chair or scooter they could not cross the washed out gully. We were camping with a group, and all four of the sites had fire pits that had not been cleaned out in some time, half full of ashes approximately 10 to 12 inches. The bathhouse was very nice, clean & great design. We would like to camp at Arrowhead again, but will pick a different site next time.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

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.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
