Perfect spot to take a tent and just relax next to a peaceful creek. The shower house is spotless. There was very pleasant live music playing during part of our stay. Staff were friendly. Other campers helped us start a fire that we were under-prepared for haha... great place. Definitely want to go back.

Great campground. Severely damaged last year in Hurricane Helene. They have been working hard to get it back in shape and are doing a wonderful job. Beverley and Tom always there and available. Very helpful and pleasant. Convenient to Boone. Highly recommend.

We stayed here on the 4th of July weekend and had a blast. We stayed in one of the rustic cabins, but we would have preferred to stay on a creek side campsite (they were all booked by the time we registered!). The cabins were exactly as described, very clean with a fan on the ceiling. We brought a few more floor fans and that was helpful to keep the air circulated. Our kids slept in the bunk bed, there was a double size bed and enough space on the floor for a twin XL sized cot, and a pack and play. The only thing that I wish were better was that the bunk beds creaked really loudly. The bolts need to be tightened, and it woke us up a few times overnight as the bunk sleepers shifted around. The campground is small but has a very homey feel with the most delightful mountain creek for endless kid play. Seriously my kids never wanted to leave it. There’s a communal grass area around a playground where the kids congregated and played at night. The bathhouse was clean and as you would expect, but the area around the bathhouse was a little septic smelly. It didn’t permeate through the campground at all but definitely smelled as you got closer to it. We would definitely come again to stay here! Well located and a great value.

Didn’t use the cabins, but they look nice and quaint. Arrived with our camper, host is pleasant and friendly. Easily parked and set up camp. Sites are close, but along a stream is very cool and I love the sound at night of the stream rushing by at night. Everyone there is friendly. Especially over the busy 4th holiday. Great campground, and definitely recommend. There are pull through, back in sites with full hook ups. A bath house that is clean and very nice. Indoor and outdoor rec areas.

I called through the number listed on Facebook and was able to reserve one-night on a very short notice. The Cabins were very clean and orderly as well as cozy and inviting. We enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and gentle creek sounds to and from the bath house. The staff was inviting and explained the property well aa a first time visitor. As for the location, it is very close to downtown Boone and Grandfather Mountain. We loved it and will likely return for a family affordable weekend trip out.

We had a wonderful time camping at Flintrock Campground! It was clean, beautiful, and so relaxing with the creek right at our campsite. The bathrooms were the nicest campground bathrooms I’ve ever been to!!!! The staff was so kind and accommodating. Will definitely come back when we are in the Boone area!

An ok RV campground. One side is next to nice little creek, there are plenty of trees throughout the area. BUT If you like an over crowed campground then you will love Flintlock. At one time they had spaces between each site - Not anymore! Really no we're to park you vehicle. You are packed in so tight. Our sites was so close to our neighbors it felt like we were family. Staff are great and friendly, just hated the sardine in a can feeling

Water had a strong sulfur smell and taste.
