Summary
Reservations are recommended (via Recreation.gov), and fees apply. Sites include fire rings, picnic tables, and access to flush toilets and drinking water. Some sites accommodate RVs (no hookups). Nestled in a lush forest on the lakeshore, the campground offers scenic views, swimming, boating, and easy access to the Philpott Lake Marina and nearby hiking trails like the Deer Island and Dogwood Glen trails. The peaceful, wooded setting is ideal for relaxation and lake activities. Peak season runs from May through September for the best weather and full access to amenities.

Know Before You Go
Check weather, fire restrictions, trail conditions, and permit requirements to ensure a safe and well-planned trip.
Minimize Campfire Impact
Use established fire rings, keep fires small, fully extinguish them, or opt for a camp stove when fires are restricted.
Leave What You Find
Preserve natural and cultural features by avoiding removal of plants, rocks, artifacts, or other elements of the environment.
