    Kerr Lake State Rec Area Bullocksville - Site #47 at Bullocksville Campground

    Bullocksville Campground is one of our favorite campgrounds at the Kerr Lake Recreation Area. We…read moreusually camp there at least once in early spring and again in the fall. We usually camp midweek to avoid crowds on the weekends. We've always managed to snag a site right on the Lake. This last site was #47. Beautiful views and large sites make for a lot of privacy. Many people fish from shore and there is a fishing pier in the campground. The bathhouse is well maintained. The only negative from our last visit was the the dump station was closed and we had to drive to Nutbush Bridge Campground, about 15 miles away. We highly recommend Bullocksville Campground.

    We camped here for 4 days, Wednesday through Sunday (10/2-10/6). The site had small piles of trash…read morewhich we picked up before putting up our tent. The view was beautiful, however, the noise level was much to be desired. The first 2 nights we were the only campers in the area, very peaceful. On Friday and Saturday, we had 2 neighbors talking/ laughing until 2:30 am and another that had a baby crying consistently throughout the night. In addition, there simply aren't enough showers, especially clean ones, to accommodate the number of sites. We did meet some great folks and had fun, however, compared to other state parks, this one needs to make some changes in order to improve campers experiences. If you are wanting to connect with nature in a quiet environment, choose elsewhere.

    Can't wait to return next year. This place was awesome. Came here for a nice relaxing weekend at…read morethe end of the summer. We had a tent site right on the water. Every day we would eat drink and swim all day and had a blast. There was no place to buy wood at this park. So make sure that you have some wood for fires. We bought some from a 7-11 prior to coming. But we also found a tree that fell over that someone at the park cut up and let us take to burn. The bathrooms were not the best. Only one of the toilets door would close In-N-Out bathroom. But if you walked a little there was another bathroom. The showers didn't allow for much privacy. But we were swimming every day and got a quick shower in when no one else was there. Some of the sites have these cement areas near the water that are not comfortable to lay in. But I saw a few younger purple on them. I didn't even like sitting in them. Also near the water they get slippery. Make sure you are bringing some type of water shoes. There were a lot of people that had campers and boats near us. Lots of kids and many dogs. A great family destination.

    The big lakes have never really been my favorite state parks in NC. Not that that makes them…read moreinherently boring. In fact this one has quite a lot going on. With several access points, hiking, camping, swimming, fishing and boat slips there's no end to summer time enjoyment out here. And lemme tell you, this lake is huge. I wasn't quite aware of Kerr Lake until this stop through. As it seems most of the lake is in Virginia, it's not really heard of as much in NC, I feel like. But it's significant to the history of the area and of course for the energy infrastructure of this part of the country. I took a scenic drive along the expanse of the lake and drove into VA where I crossed the dam "just to say I did". The sheer size of the lake makes for incredible views. While it isn't a park that I see myself going back to anytime soon, I know it would be enjoyable in particular for families going on summer trips to camp and enjoy the water.

I'm a 'newbie' and Kevin assisted me with finding a spot and getting set up. At the time, there were no other RV parks that had openings in the RDU area. They didn't even call me back, just emails. Springhill is a wonderful wooded spot to live in or stay in temporarily.

We received a comprehensiveness orientation to the Park.....he then lead us to our huge spacious treed site with a large concrete patio. He assisted us in backing into the proper position....he made sure we knew where the services on our site. Very quiet park....twice weekly onsite trash pick up....felt very secure......comes with cable and lots of over the air T V. Electricity is extra....propane refill in the park at a reasonable price. We stayed for a month....very resonable. We were here for a surgery at Duke Medical Center which is about a half hour drive.

And the Staff handout goodies to the Dogs.....the Dogs love the Friendly Staff too.
