South Mountain State Park is a great place to camp and explore the outdoors. Located in North Carolina, the park is easily accessible from I-40 Exit 104. Park rangers are very present and will deliver firewood bundles for a fee, and drive through the campsites frequently. The campground is situated at 1400 ft elevation and is surrounded by beautiful nature trails, perfect for starting and ending the day. The centrally located shower/bathroom building is brand new, and has a wash bin sink on the back of it with hot water to do dishes if needed. Half of the sites at the campground are adjacent to a trout stream, perfect for fishing, cooling drinks, or stringing up a hammock. The car camping sites are difficult to get availability for on weekends due to the parks popularity. Cell service is nonexistent, but Wifi is available at the visitors center, 1 mile away. The set up at the campground is great, with level and big pads, and picnic tables that can be moved around as needed. The only thing lacking is a camp host, but rangers patrol at night and are happy to drop you some wood if you flag them down. The visitor center staff are welcoming and helpful, and the NC State Park Ranger is informative and provides great suggestions for hiking trails. The campsite is clean and clear of debris, and the trails offer many opportunities to swim or enjoy the water. There are also informational signs along the trails to describe the various animals, tracks, sounds, and habitats. Be sure to check the trail rating as a lot of the hikes to camping sites are considered strenuous.
