Peaceful overnight stay.
- Water/electric site, fire ring, with a dump station not that far away.
- Do yourself a favor and wander around. The lake is beautiful.
- We stayed in February and there were very few people around.
- Very clean

We stayed on a Saturday night through Friday, working during the week. My husband had enough connectivity to work and do zoom calls using at&t. He also streamed Netflix, all with no booster or antenna. I have Verizon, which had slightly better speeds than at&t, and I also worked thru the week without using our mimo antenna and had no problems! Bathhouses were clean and very warm (maybe a bit too warm), and no problems with hookups at the site. We had a fair amount of turnover in neighbors but everyone was quiet and respectful.
Not really an issue but trash and recycling has been removed from the loop during COVID and you have to take it to the dumpsters at the dump station.

We rolled in after dark on a Sunday evening and were greeted by a literal dumpster fire. As in, one of the communal dumpsters at the dump station was fully ablaze. If we were the type of people who read into 'omens' - we probably would have left the park immediately. But, luckily, we aren't - and we stayed.
This park offers campsites that are pleasantly well-spaced, although not always pleasantly level. After some internet sleuthing, we booked site A-4, which was long, level and offered water and 30A electric, but no water views. It was also closer to its neighboring campsite than many others, but lucky for us - no one occupied that campsite after the first two nights (when it was occupied by a park host).
As we stayed here in the off-season, loop A was the only loop that was open. While it filled up on weekends, on the weekdays in December there was nearly no one here. Even on weekends, it was incredibly quiet.
If you are a large rig, we recommend carefully assessing campsites before arrival for levelness.
There is a trail system that runs throughout the park, water access for fishing or boating, and a pristine appearing beach area a not-to-terribly-long walk down the trail system (or a quick drive to the parking lot).
We found both Verizon and AT&T to offer very usable data (up and down) in this area - sometimes even connecting to Verizon 5G on our phones.

We stayed in November 2020 and had a peaceful stay. Our site was pull through electric and water and quite private. It was easy enough to get level and close to the trail that connects the loops and the lake access. I didn't notice many planes overhead as were mentioned in previous reviews, but it was during covid so flight volume was certainly lower than usual. Cell service was good and we were able to work and stream just fine here. There was a two slot dump station and trash plus recycling near the entrance.

Sites are nicely spaced (B loop), some surprisingly so, but many are unlevel, and some deceptively so. We were in site B-004. Our front wheels were about 4-5” off of the ground to get level. AT&T had 2 bars and 4 MB/s w/o a booster, 3 bars and 5 MB/s with it. No WiFi. We didn’t have any satellite coverage. OTA TV is ok, but not as good as one would expect being this close to Raleigh-Durham. Also, the SRA is apparently on the airport flight path, as there was a fair bit of jet noise, particularly in the evening. There are a couple trails in the immediate area, as well as between the campground loops. A Loop seemed more crowded and noisy than B Loop.

The Mountains to Sea Trail comes by this campground, beautiful and well marked and maintained trail with nice lake views, right at your doorstep.

We have visited several campgrounds at Falls Lake, NC, and this is our least favorite. It is a smaller campground and the sites are adequate. The non-electric tent sites are spacious and private, but some of the RV sites are hilly and unlevel. Be sure to check the driveway length. Our site was up a hill, and we barely fit with our 30-foot travel trailer. The site was marketed as available for a 30-foot rig, but should only be labeled as 26-foot at most. However, the sites are maintained and the rangers help keep things running smoothly. They frequently drive through the camping loops, so it's easy to find someone if there are any issues. The sites often have multiple parking spaces to accommodate additional cars or boat trailers.
The grounds are quiet and the sites are private. The bathhouse is typical for a North Carolina State Park. They are cleaned daily.

Our campsite was A2. We stayed here the first week of June 2020. The site was spacious and gave a good amount of space between us and our neighbor. It was fairly level, we didn't need much to level our rig. We had plenty of space to spread out behind our vehicle for our bug tent. The site is mostly shady and does get late afternoon sun for about an hour or so. We didn't use the bathhouse but it didn't seem to be very far from our site. Water pressure was low at times.
The park has a good amount of hikes to venture out on. We came during firefly season and they normally lit up around 8:30 and dimmed down a little later. 8:30 was their most active time. The park itself is beautiful. Lots of trees and wildlife to enjoy. The lake is huge with boats and other water toys buzzing around.
I would recommend this state park. They put it together very well. Its' got a very thoughtful layout.

The pull-through spot was great for owning a motorcycle so that I could pull my bike under the awning!
The only issue that we had was that the ticks were so bad... my spouse got bit twice and found a few others on her even though we were using 100% deet!
