Dan River Campground

We are full-timers in a 36 ft Class A with a Cherokee Trailhawk tow. We were in site 50 for 3 days in early October. The CG has nice level sites, some open, some wooded, but most are fairly close. Several full-time/long-term residents, but mostly for campers. We were in site 50, which was wooded, but we did have DISH satellite coverage. It was 50A/FHU. OTA TV is pretty decent with an omni antenna. Campground WiFi reached 0.85 MB/s, but data rates seemed to vary greatly, and often dropped to zero.

AT&T had 2 bars of LTE and up to 3.5 MB/s. There is a nice 1 mile loop trail around the property. Campground was about 2/3 full. They also put up Halloween decorations around the whole campground, a really nice touch.

We had a great time, and a worry-free stay. All hookups are well maintained and work well. Ample water pressure. Very level, fine-gravel sites. Easy access with the keycard. Friendly hosts. Really have nothing negative to say. We’re thankful that they are EV friendly, as we tow with ours. Good location when attending the NASCAR races at Martinsville.

Found this while looking for a river tubing adventure in NC - they offer both! They have numerous full hookup sites & a handful of water/electric. Check the utility distance for the water/electric sites as extensions may be required. We arrived on a Saturday and the campground felt at least 90% full, if not 100%. No issues at all with noise or traffic, etc. Everyone was doing their own thing, sitting around campfires and so on. There are a number of long-term/perm/seasonal residents that were not at the campground much. By Sunday evening/Monday before checkout, it was down to 50% or less occupied and was awesome. Bathhouse was clean and smelled really good (weird observation) the whole time. Grass was cut & trimmed, pool was clean, really well-maintained. Cell service was more than sufficient. TV signal was strong from the Greensboro direction.
As for the tubing adventure, we walked up the gravel road to the check in area with a small cooler (1/4 mile?). Roughly 30 people and tubes were taken on 2 small shuttle vans up river about 10-12 minutes. The county has a parking area w/ permanent steps that go down into the river. The two guides/drivers were really helpful and nice guys. The river float ends at a ramp at the rear of the campground. We walked out, put our tubes in the pile they pointed out, and walked a couple hundred yards into our site. I had underestimated the convenience. We will be looking to come back with a group of friends that want to tube; if not camp too.

October. Nice level sites, some open, some wooded, but most are fairly close. Several full-time residents, but mostly for campers. We were in site 23, which was wooded, so we had no satellite coverage. It was 30A/FHU. OTA TV is pretty decent with an omni antenna. Campground WiFi reached 0.85 MB/s, but data rates seemed to vary greatly, and often dropped to zero. AT&T had 2 bars and 3.5 MB/s w/o a booster, 4 bars and 4.9 MB/s with it. There is a nice 1 mile loop trail around the property. Campground was about 2/3 full. They also put up Halloween decorations around the whole campground, complete with a grave yard by the bath house, a really nice touch.

A gem of a campground. All sites are well spaced, clean and level. Did not use my levelers on my 32 foot class C. Owners are very friendly as is the camp host. You can walk to the Dan River in 2 minutes. They also offer tubes, kayaks, canoes and take you up river that allows about a 2hr float directly back to the campground. They have a small store and a super Walmart, restaurants, gas stations are nearby. This will be a regular spot for us from now on. Bathhouses are clean.
