Sites are so close together there is no privacy. There are various hiking trails that run right next to campsites, or between the lake and the camp sites. So instead of a nice view, you get to see dogs pooping, and hear rustling and noises going by your tent when you're trying to go to sleep. The onsite camp maintenance person was a Karen. He told me I had to turn by bluetooth speaker down, when it was barely up, and even if I had it up all the way it's literally only 3" in size and barely plays loud enough to even hear over someone talking. Plus the sign says quiet time is from 10pm and he was giving me grief at only 6pm... there were other people making way more noise, barking dogs, playing children, someone chopping wood... but my music was unacceptable... The tent pitch area is a square of garden timbers filled in with crush and run. I could feel the rocks all night long when I was trying to sleep, and I was worried they were going to put a hole in the bottom of my tent. The ground was so hard I ruined 4 tent stakes trying to hammer them into the ground. The view of the lake was kind of pretty, but everything else was terrible.

Great location and enough in the woods to be away from everything!!!! These are primitive sites so bring enough poser and water and it is golden!!!! We really enjoy it.

The Badin Lake campgrounds are very well maintained. The bathrooms were very clean. Going in the fall after school starts again is great and it was relatively quiet. There is lots to do in the area. The only reason it got 4 stars was that I could not find any camp wood anywhere. Usually there are people selling it or the park has stacked up dead wood they have collected around the grounds. Only other issue is there are very few sites that actually have a view of the water. Book EARLY or you will never get one of them.

Drainage on camping pads was good. Easy access to trails from the campground, you can fish from the bank or put in kayak/canoe relatively easy on the lower loop. Bath houses had some clogged drain issues. Overall you can hit the gun range, fish, hike, off-road and camp all within 10 minute drive of your tent.

The camp grounds were at max capacity and it was still a very tranquil and relaxing weekend!

Had another great trip as always!

What a great campground. It rained the whole time but I still had a blast. The campsite was huge, rain runoff around the tent pad was perfect. The grill was good and camp fire ring was adequate.

great spot

Pros: The sites and views are fantastic. Great hiking trails within a 30min driving distance.

Cons: The bathrooms and showers are terrible and too few. The trash cans are also too small and too few. And they don’t sell firewood on site as other campgrounds do so you need to plan accordingly and bring lots of wood with you. The tent area was so hard we couldn’t hammer in our tent stakes...we tried and the metal started to bend.

Campsite was very clean. Around the lake at site 22 could be cleaned up.
