    I LOVEDDD this campground !! I know the reviews were kind of skeptical, however this was my first time camping ever and it was absolutely beautiful! The owners are so friendly and amazing ! They have bathrooms and stations to shower that are cleaned regularly so they were super clean for it to be camping! I have AT&T and my cell service was perfectly fine once arriving to the camp site ! They also have a small store for your convience and you can fish / swim/ kayak within the lake ! It was an amazing first experience can't wait to come back !

    Ahhh so wonderfully surprised by our time at Orchard Lake!! Such a naturally beautiful family campground with a great vibe. Use the directions from the website to make sure you get in without trouble as there are train tracks in town you may not want to go over... you can see scrapes of people who've high centerSo while slightly challenging it's nothing I couldnt handle. My family and I have been road tripping the US for the past 9 months [17 states so far] and have stayed a lot of places... this one was one of the most naturally beautiful with tons going on! We were making our way to up to Asheville and randomly decided to stop over here for a night to break up the drive. The kids [and I] had so much fun upon our arrival we extended the stay. There's a beautiful lake for swimming & fishing with slides and swim docks. They have kayaks and boats you can paddle out in, zip line, frisbee golf course tucked away in the woods, golf chipping green, badminton, shuffleboard, little skate ramps n rails for skateboarding [everything free of charge] We had a great site [108] a pull through with full hookups and easy access to the back gate. There were tons of kids and the vibe here is so good. We could just let the kids run n play without worry. A really wonderful family campground. If you are looking for a place the fam will love do yourself a favor and stay a day or week. You'll be back, no doubt. As will we :)

    This campground is nestled in a forest in Travelers Rest SC. When you enter you might be…read moresurprised, because all of the sites are on the right side backed by a lovely stream. We had a wonderful spot with a cement area which had a picnic table and a fire pit. The longer I stayed the more I appreciated the beautiful trees and foliage. Some were so old and wide and all were very tall. At the end of the campground are six covered wagons that you can sleep in. They have their own pretty area and bathhouse. At the top of the little hill is the pool, laundry room and an open social area. They have ping pong, games and places to sit. We already plan to come back for Thanksgiving! I am very excited to spend the holiday at the beautiful KOA at Travelers Rest.

    Shhhh.... A surprise hidden gem in the foothills of SC. My husband surprised me for our anniversary…read moreweekend our 1st camping trip of the season at the KOA in travelers rest, SC Memorial Weekend. It was wonderful even though it rained the entire long weekend. We checked in late Friday and they had everything left for us. We were on site 36 with the deluxe patio. Has swing, Adirondack chairs, for pit and backs up to creek. Love the amenities, everyone was so friendly, clean sites, quiet, just total relaxation. Great food in this area too. Honestly, I was happy just being in nature with my family. Just a wonderful spot

    EmberGlow is an amazing high end Glamping/Camping resort! So far we have stayed in a pod and a yurt…read moreand loved both. The pod was just a little small but very well thought out! The 16' yurt was incredible! It was so clean, well appointed, and spacious. The queen bed is super comfy, bathroom lovely, kitchenette had all we needed! We were there during the week and had our whole section of the campground to ourselves and we had the pool completely to ourselves 2 days in a row The 1st night there was a whopping thunderstorm and our yurt was so cozy! Lying in bed watching the lightning through the skylight and hearing the rain on the canvas will always be a favorite memory for us! The whole resort is so well thought out and the people are super sweet! Thank you Nancy for being so kind and accommodating!

    The manager was super nice and welcoming. We were staying for a week because we were visiting…read morefriends in Mill Spring and this was a 15 minute drive to their house. I feel so lucky that we found this cute campground! Because of the fires there was a burn ban however it wasn't a problem. The hiking trails were very nice and everything was clear from Helene so we could access them. We were camping in our RV but there are so many great accommodations if you don't have anything to camp in. To me the best thing was the bathroom and shower! I have never been to a campground that had such great showers!! Incredibly clean and they have shampoo, conditioner and body wash in there for you to use. They even had towels rolled up in cubbies! Who has that! We loved it so much that we already booked a spot for next year :)

    We stayed four nights in this campground and I found the owners to be absolutely friendly contrary…read moreto what other reviewers say. This time our rig was tail light and due to the slight incline of the site made for rain water to flow we had a hard time leveling the front so I went back to the office to request a different site and explained that the reason was our rig and not the site itself to which the owners obliged with a smile, not only that but he offered me his wooden blocks that in the end were the perfect solution. There is an stigma about permanent people but we found that us being friendly, waving and smiling to all they all are friendly and respond well, on the contrary the only indifferent person was a temporary young lady that when greeted twice looked the other way but you can't expect everyone to be in a good mood all the time. Quiet place, close to Forest City where we went to church on Sunday and also very close to Lake Lure to check the touristy attractions that lure ( pun intended ) people in. Don't know about bathhouse because we never use since our rig is self contained Will comeback to vacay and explore the region

    The campground is small, but we really liked our RV site that backed up to the river. Very peaceful…read moreand quiet area. The RV sites are gravel but have a concrete pad with a picnic table and sitting area. We came at the end of July and thought the bugs would be bad being right here on the water, but that was not the case. I only gave 4 stars because the owners could be a bit more friendly, and the camp store and facilities are a bit run down. Otherwise, a nice place to stay.
