Watauga Dam Campground

One of our favorite places to unplug and unwind. Where else can you camp and catch trout. It's very peaceful and quiet and the staff is friendly and helpful. Lake Watsgua is close by and the Appalachian Trail is close also by. Camp sites are roomy. They have electric , water, fire rings, and picnic tables. There is a dump station. The bathrooms are clean

Campsites very well maintained. Bath houses are clean and well stocked. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. This is now one of my favorite campgrounds. Watch out for goose poo on the riverbank.

Visited Watauga Dam Campground for the first time. It was truly enjoyable. Very scenic. Very quiet!!! Lots of wildlife to view. We were lucky enough to spot 2 bear cubs, and many birds. Fellow campers were friendly and courteous. Campsite managers were very nice. Bathrooms and shower very clean.

You will not find a more peaceful and relaxing place that is so isolated yet close to everything. The natural beauty of the area is breath taking. The rv sites are large and easy to get into. The grounds and bathhouse are well maintained. The staff are friendly and have always welcomed me like I'm coming back home. The more I stay, the less I want to leave.

Serenity and beauty at this campground! Hosts were helpful and kind-came by a couple times a day to pick up our trash. Took the canoe out on the river right from our campsite and enjoyed the ducks and geese that floated by. Beautiful waterfall and even a black bear sighting right across the river. Glad he stayed on his side. Totally off-grid but could drive a couple miles to connect when needed. Would definitely return here for a peaceful escape.
