Down by the River Campground

With fuel costs climbing, we know a lot of folks are thinking twice about long road trips. Here's an idea: why not settle in at Down by the River for the season instead?
Booking a long-term site means:
✅ No more burning gas hopping from campground to campground
✅ Locked-in savings compared to nightly/weekly rates
✅ A home base right in the mountains — set up camp once and actually relax
✅ Get to know your camp neighbors instead of starting over every stay
Whether you're looking for a month or the whole season we would love to have you settle in with us. Call us (828) 733-5057 to see what spot is right for you!
