Booked a night here last minute because all other campgrounds were full great area with good swimming. Staff was friendly and helpful with clean facilities.

We went last summer and it was nice. Had a nice spot right at the river, kids enjoyed themselves, so did we. A bit too close to the highway, so traffic is what you hear ALL night long. But we wanted to come back this summer, despite the traffic at night.......however, I have been calling and emailing them since February trying to make a reservation and I have gotten ZERO response. I get that during off season you may not be taking reservations yet, but you should certainly contact people back and let them know that or once you are taking reservations......CALL PEOPLE BACK! Very poor business practices. My family and I have been sitting in limbo for 3 1/2 months, not knowing what we are doing for vacation this year. Now, it's just over 4 weeks until the vacation time requested, and we have no spot 😞 very disappointing. Definitely not going to waste my time anymore this year or any years in the future trying to contact them. Shame on y'all for being so disrespectful to your guests.

I highly recommend their tubing down the Pemi! We changed our plans last minute to have a river day instead of a hike day, of course every place we called was already fully booked. Except these guys, since they are first come first served they had plenty of tubes. It was a 4 hour ride at the most peaceful relaxing pace. Since the river was low there were a few thin spots but they were super easy to scoot over or just stand up and walk over. We brought food and water in little backpacks but they sell nice floating rafts to hold all your food and drinks too. The river water is pristine, clean and the perfect temperature. Our group spends a ton of active time outdoors and we were so impressed with the whole experience.

First of all, I need to say the lady that checked us in was awesome. I don’t know what the other reviewers saw, but she was a very pleasant person. Also, I want to tip my hat to the maintenance man he fix an electrical problem in five minutes flat .awesome people I can’t say enough about this campground. The site we had was right on the water beautiful view watching the river so peacefully flow the site we had had water and electricity.#25 totally awesome. no mosquitoes at all . Nice sandy beach . river tubing was fantastic three-hour gentle ride down the river on a tube on a sunny day. Life doesn’t get any better than that. We will be back …

I recently spent a week at the Pemi River Campground and had an amazing experience. My two teenage boys had a blast as there is so much for them to do: fishing, swimming, jumping off the bridge into the river, tubing and kayaking. The seasonal patrons make visitors feel right at home. I found the staff to be extremely friendly, while ensuring the campground is safe and family friendly. We were in one of the cabins and found them to be clean and comfortable. The bathhouses are kept immaculate and always fully stocked. I can envision making this trip each summer to enjoy the scenic views and family friendly atmosphere.

We did not stay at the campground, only did a day trip tubing. The river was great, slow and steady most the way with the occasional rapids sections. The van that brought us to the river drop off site was a bit shoddy but made it there in one piece. The driver was great, very friendly and helpful. Highly suggest this as a nice day trip for anyone looking for mild adventure with a side of sun and water sports!

Stayed here for the entire season. My only complaint is that some of the sites are a bit loud due to the highway being so close. Bathrooms and showers are cleaned regularly. Quiet place, lots of seasonal residents.

Great experience staying on a river site. The site was large and literally right on the river. Sites are close together but typical for a campground. The owners and office people were so nice and friendly. The facilities were super clean and well maintained. I was really impressed with how clean the bathrooms are. My only complaint is that the highway almost goes over the campground. I hear less traffic at home than I did there but overall it was still a great experience in a beautiful location and I'd totally stay there again

The bathrooms were exceptionally clean. The river access was very nice. For those reasons, it was a decent campground; however, I would not go again. The campground's speed limit is 5 mph (which is reasonable considering the amount of foot traffic at the site), but the campground's security - without an actual way to measure speed - stopped me and members of my party every time we entered or exited the campground even though we were abiding by the speed limit - going so far as to walk up to my car, slam his hand on my windshield, and mutter something derogatory about me under his breath. This was in addition to stopping by our campsite twice to speak to us about campground rules that we were already abiding by. Suffice it to say, this campground didn't seem super welcoming or inviting to non-permanent campers.

If you can get a site on the River it’s the best in my opinion. I’ve been coming here for years and this year was great except for the owners literally stopping by every site several times like the police and asking for donations for veterans. We go here to relax and enjoy the outdoors. Not for the campground police to bother us about tags on cars, or inspect how many people. I get it at night to keep noise down and I understand there are rules but why bother those who aren’t an issue. Day 2-5’weren’t bad but the first day was horrible.
