Don't need a lot of amenities just a nice clean park with level sites.

We loved Mama Gertie's. We prefer grassy sites on second level.

Another vote for Mama Gertie's...... The view from up top was breath taking! The upper sites were very level, I believe the others weren't too bad either. :B

Lake Powhatan was great. What can be wrong with a COE park?
Our 2351D Phoenix Cruiser, Jack, has turned us from campers into RVers and loving it!

Stayed at Tap's in 2016. Nothing fancy and a few long term residents. I think quite a few veterans stay there for appointments at the near by VA hospital. It's convenient to most of the Ashville area.

One more vote for Lake Powhatan! It's our favorite Asheville area campground. We particularly like the 20 full hookup sites in the mis-named Lakeside Loop (Hint: It's not on the side of the lake).

Another vote for Lake Powhatan. Be sure to visit the NC Arboretum which is next door (free but charge for parking).

I agree that Bear Creek is very nice. We were in a Wolf Pup camper (now sold) and thought that the camp was very nice. It was very clean and the bathrooms were spotless.

If you can live without hookups ( but bathrooms with hot showers) check out the Davidson River Recreation Area. About 35 miles from Asheville.

We stay at a campground about an hour west of Asheville, close to the Smoky Mountain National Park. The good part... a full hookup is $35 a night.

We spent a week at Lake Powhatan in the National Forest in December last year. Our site was very long and flat. Most sites are very private. There are hiking trails and lakes throughout the area.

It is easy access to downtown Asheville and Biltmore estate and very close to I-26.
Looking forward to new adventures and new friends.
