We ended up staying here last minute, so that was a plus, this place is huge. But overall didn’t enjoy.
Pros-1. last minute availability 2. Needed to stay an extra night due to needing service on the trailer 3. Nice river and lake spots (not that we were given one) 4. Little shop and fire wood for sale.
Cons- 1. The biggest one (no social distancing whatsoever in the age of COVID) large groups and kids playing everywhere. Not the end of the world on our trip we’ve seen so much but we kept to ourselves 2. The sites are crammed!! We did luck out with no neighbors, but if they placed anyone in either spot left or right of us I would have left and found a parking lot. (I would compare these sites to the parking spots at Home Depot) 3. Plenty of much nicer spots were available and not offered (didn’t realize until we were walking the dog-too late to change) 4. Not close to downtown where everything was. 5. WiFi was not good
This might be a great family get away where kids can run around and play, then maybe this is a spot for you. Just wasn’t for me.

Let's start with the good. A river runs through it. You are close enough to Asheville and also the cutest little spot of Black Mountain. There's some good hiking close by and on the campground I really loved all the space to walk the dogs. Dog walking is 10 out of 10. Along the loops and the river to jump in. Also the private baths near loop D & E and nice and renovated.
The not so good. Highway and train noise. The weekends are a mad house. Like a lot of KOAs the place is quiet all week and then madness on the weekend. Loop A interior is horrible. Spots are tiny and you back up to all your neighbors. Luckily, we questioned the spot and while we could not get on the water (all reserved) we moved to E row that backed up to trees and were happier.
My biggest advice would be if you stay pick a site on the water. A sites on river, D sites at the end of the row and E sites on Lake are the best IMO.

We stayed here the week of Thanksgiving. It was a little crowded for COVID times but (most) of the staff was masked up. Groups kept to themselves. The kids played football in the grassy areas all day long. A beautiful week!

We stayed here Thanksgiving week and it was super peaceful. We had a back-in spot on the large lake and the scenery was very nice. Fished. Feed the geese. Warmed by the fire while looking out on the lake. And I even had to work and enjoyed solid internet. Definitely would stay here again!

This campground has been one of our favorite private owned campgrounds during our travels. First off, the place is HUGE. They have two lakes, which you can fish off of or even walk around for a nice evening stroll. The river goes right through the campground so you can play in the water/tube here. They also have a pool. The campground is catered to families with children so there is a great playground, game room, bike rentals and more. Close to downtown Asheville, Blue Ridge, and so many hiking trails. Will definitely stay here again when back in the Asheville area.

Not only being close to Asheville, this is a great spot to get to some other places as well. Black Mountain, Montreat, Chimney Rock, almost too many to list. During the week there are considerably less campers making it very peaceful and pleasant. We will definitely stay here again!

The staff was awesome, the other campers were awesome - the kids LOVED it. We felt so good letting our kids be kids - ride bikes, tube in the creek, play at the playground, etc.
The sites were a good size, the grounds were immaculate and the setting pristine and peaceful. We WILL be back at some point.

This place is huge. We were just passing through, so we went for the cheaper sites up closer to the main road. If staying again, I'd spring for the lake or riverfront sites though. Overall very nice place to stay.

This campground is fun and decently clean. There are a lot of geese and ducks because there are 3 ponds and a river. They tease my dog and make a lot of noise. There is also a train right across from the campground. The activities include an arcade, a doggie park, and it's also fun to bike around. The internet was good. I would recommend section E for RVing because it’s close to the water, and you get a lot of space. Overall, I give it four-out-of-five stars. (See rating above.)
While this was written by my 12 year old son, the words are his (the grammar and spelling are a collaborative effort). He was actually more critical than I would be. We loved this campground! The internet was fast and reliable and cable TV was great. We were put in Section A but I walked the dog around the park and we spotted the sites in Section E and moved. It is just beautiful around the lake. There are quite a few sites big enough for motorhomes and other good-sized RVs. The individual ratings is mine.
