Pics are waxing moon through dense canopy of tall hardwood trees. Campground was quiet and serene. A nice facility that has been a repetitive joy to experience.

Wonderful experience! Campground has plenty of shade, the lot was clean and drained fast after a storm. The host was amazing and kept us informed. Bathrooms were also clean.

What a beautiful campground. Our sight ( H-14) turned out too be a very popular place as we had a family of of Barred Owls nesting in a tree right above our trailer. We watched for two weeks as the babies emerged and took their first hops to surrounding branches testing their wings and tree legs. An awesome experience ! Watched as the parents took turns watching from a close distance and chasing away numerous crows that would come to bother them. Also witnessed them feeding the young. So cool ! Camp hosts where very friendly, always asking if we needed anything. I felt like was living a National Geographic couple of weeks. Thank you Holly Bay campground. We'll be back !

This(6A) was an excellent duplex campsite. The parking level has a dedicated space for one tent and a few steps downstairs has space for two campsites, a picnic bench, and a fire pit. The site is beautifully covered with trees and very spacious. It’s also secluded from other sites. One can take the glimpse of the lake through the gaps between tree. And, there is a path to take you to the lake. We loved staying here and definitely recommend this national forest and this campsite for a nature retreat.

vearnie gray | Feb 24, 2019

It is a wet county. I don't remember all the pricing of the camp sites. The have primitive camping and RV camping. I think for RV's it's about 30.00 depending on the site. It is our favorite spot.

Is there reliable wifi for virtual class room?

Kat | Aug 26, 2020
Sebastian Rolett | Aug 27, 2020

No wifi, but there may be signal depending on your phone and carrier. My Galaxy S9+ gets 2 bars on the average. I can load web pages and stream music, but anything high bandwidth (videos, classrooms, etc) will not load. Do not expect to be able to do virtual classrooms or the like while camping.

Are the campsites on the water with a “beach”? By beach I just mean where the adults can sit in chairs and watch the kids play in the water.

Becky Williams | Feb 23, 2020
Krystal Mckinley | Feb 24, 2020

No campsites are on the beach. You have to drive to the beach to swim which is not far from the campground.

What is some nice spots in the reserve section that don’t have step down. I need all level spots.
