Well, first off, this is not a hotel, it's a campground. Seriously, from what I read here, sounds like most of you have no idea what camping is all about. If you want luxury, nice bathrooms, plush ammenities, go to a hotel...not camping. Camping is for people who know how to appreciate outdoor living and appreciate the simple things in... more

I have read several reviews and am quite disappointed. I don't think people today realize what camping really is. They actually had port-a-pots to use. You should feel lucky. I stayed here with my husband and 2 of our friends in a medium size cabin. Yes the inside was rustic (ITS A CABIN AT A CAMPGROUND) what else do you... more

I am glad I didn't read the reviews before I stayed here. My husband and I drove our 25 foot toy hauler and made it around 830pm, in the dark, which was not fun. The directions were accurate which is surprising. It was a tight sqeeze but we backed up into spot 7 and hooked up. We were in telephone... more

Read and believe the reviews. I could go into detail but it's all been said in previous reviews. BTW, don't let them keep your deposit when you find it's unfit to inhabit and decide not to stay. more

After driving all day and part of the night my partner and I set up our tent and prepared to get some rest. It was nice to hear the river as we went to sleep but the TRAINS across the river woke us up numerous times. Don't expect to sleep well here unless you are deaf. The campground was very... more

A friend and I took our 13-year-old sons for a four-day camping trip to the French Broad River Campground. The boys LOVED fishing in the river, and had great success. The campground was a bit rustic, but our pop-up camper was right on the water and the river is beautiful. Sure, we could have found more modern bathrooms in a... more

We camped for a week. Sat and Sun the campground was full..the rest of the week empty..yes, the sites are small but the sound of the water over the rocks, the mornings of cool air, feedings the ducks more than made up for the size of the sites....there isn't much to do there so I wouldn't recommend it for children... more

I'll admit it, I like to save money. I can be a little cheap. I will sacrifice a little comfort to save $. But French Broad River Campground was WAY too much sacrifice for the money saved. My husband and I stayed in one of the cabins there in Oct. '06. We were in town for a wedding, and didn't... more

This place looks nothing like it does on their web site. My husband and I actually did not stay here once we checked in, due to some of the unsavory characters that were camping at some of the other sites. (It looked like people were actually living there, instead of camping.) Plus, I wasn't really keen on using a dirty... more

The ad online makes this place out to be tranquil and beautiful. When in reality it’s a dump. The view out to the river is nice yes, but the view looking in, more like looking into a dumpy trailer park. The toilets are Rent A Jon’s and the bathhouse was a run down building that needed far more then cleaning.... more
