Lake James @ Linville River Camp
Secluded with great swimming hole!
Loved the camp site and the river access - great brewery nearby called Fonta Flora for lunch/beers. Christian is an awesome host with a dream spot.

Site 3 Mariachis
Thoughtful touches by host.
Had a great long weekend at LAP. Booked sites 2 and 3 for two families. While it would have been easy to put 2 families on one site, we enjoyed the extra space. Christian was great! So many thoughtful touches made it an easy place to stay. We hiked Shortoff which was super close and fun!
May be helpful for others;
3 is nearest bathroom/sink - super nice for us with kids! if you are a light sensitive sleeper may choose 1 or 2
The river swimming is only for the river site campers. This is further from the bathroom/sink but would recommend considering it if you want to swim/get wet or want more privacy!!
While dogs are welcome, it seemed that ours - who are barkers - were making others uncomfortable. So if you have dogs that bark, may consider the river spot as well.
There are some cabin options as well on the land.

Lake James @ Linville River Camp
Really nice RV site on a large creek. Pretty secluded and peaceful. You'll need a 4x4 to get in if it rains but the ground at the site drained well and wasn't muddy. Christian was very nice and accommodating. Will definitely stay here again sometime.

Site 2 Snail
Great stay close to Lake James
Great tent site, host was very welcoming and accommodating. My dad and I had a trailer with two kayaks on it and took a less than 5 minute drive to the boat ramp to launch. Very clean and well kept piece of land. Nice sink for washing dishes or refilling water filters near the firewood storage. Port-a-potty for the bathroom for now but host explained he has a plan to have showers and bathroom up at the house. Axe throwing next to the firewood, horseshoes about 30 feet next to the axe throwing, and bigger fire pit in the middle of the pasture. Definitely would camp at again.
