We love camping here! First off, the sites are nice and big..not stacked on top of each other! Secondly, they're beautiful! I can't say enough about the beauty of this place, especially in the fall! The Rangers and Maintenance keep it spotless and are so courteous and helpful! There really are no negatives for us about Falls Lake. We usually stay in Rolling View, but we've also stayed in Holly Point and they're both just wonderful!
It was clean. My family was having a life remembrance.
Great boat ramp. Also Sandy Beach for swimming and tent and rv parking.
Beautiful lake.
Wish the parks were free however, fee to launch a boat as opposed to the Duke chain of lakes
Came all the from Norway and I had heard about this place. wow. amazingly beautiful area setting everything. nice fishing spots. Great toilet facilities. View... I'll be back more fishing. More fun. Wow i love this place, and the location you can even hear the fish swim in the water, even the woods here have some rest places. good space for parking. GO for a visit up in Wake Forest.
Love this lake! It is so peaceful and serene to me.
Very quite,secluded, clean.level TV sites,,great trail.well come back.stayed on A 26,,
It is really beautiful place to spend Family time.
Very nice place for a picnic. Has nice clean and clear water. Picnic tables, shaded areas, and playground. Wonderful family fun
Always a nice park. In good loop with access to bathhouse and lake beach
This lake has many entry spots for your kayak. Also offers a couple places for gas boats.
Good recreational lake to do kayaking and scatter the mind
Great place to have fun and be with God and nature!
There's always wildlife to be seen, families and people enjoying the area in general. It's always clean and absent if trash and the facilities are clean. Most importantly the fishing is pretty good!!!
Really enjoyed the campsite. Plenty of room between campsites, and nice bath house. Hike-in sites are a ways off the parking lot, but that's ok. I wish they could increase parking passes to more than 2 cars considering the limit of campers/site is 6.
This park is awesome and very underrated. Please stay away. I want it all to myself.
I rode the mountain bike trails and they are pretty good. It is mostly short up and down sections with a few drops. Lots of roots but not many rocks. This is one of those places where your legs will get a good workout.
Nice place for family camping in easy reach of home. A nice escape into the woods and the fishing can be pretty good.
Huge and popular. Very good place for families too.
Clean bathrooms and campsites, very family friendly. The park ranger we met could have been more friendly however. It seemed like he was having a bad day.
Great place to take kids. Swimming and playgrounds. Nice relaxing place. Get there early if you want a picnic table and grill.
A beautiful lake soo close to the city. Great little get away for fishing swimming and boating
It's a wonderful place I'm having fun with the Boy Scouts
I love that lake and I enjoyed with my family and friends
Great place to go for a day vacay with the whole family at a very affordable price (all i paid was $7 for parking) but be sure to bring your own snacks and beverages!
You might see Eagles walking the trails, boat docks, playground...
We love camping here. No sewer hookups, but great expanses of forest and lake.
Overall this was a great place except for the bathrooms. Nasty and full of bugs!
Docks are not well maintained, especially Route 50 which charges admission yet their docks create boat damage and accidents because they docks have exposed metal insteas of boat protective material. Been going on for years
Great place to take the family and the park ranger is very nice
Nice beach area. I just hate we have to pay $7 to enter. Some things in life should be free.
Clean bathrooms, nice trials and wonderful staff! The sights are beautiful!
Mountains to sea trail goes right by the visitor's center. Campground at Rolling View is clean and well maintained.
This is a nice state park. Camp sites were clean and neat.
Lots of plane noise. Guess we were in the flight path for the airport. Lots of motorboat noise on Sunday. Loved the beauty of the camp site but too noisy.
Love this place. Several different campgrounds, boat launches, various swimming beaches. Great place to visit and/or camp when the weather's nice. Really close to Raleigh so it is an easy weekend getaway.
That particular area of falls lake is only open to canoes and smaller non-motored boats which is really nice for a lake of that size in the south. I have been here a few times and it's usually an enjoyable experience.
The campsite was sufficient. We were at holly pointe #113. I loved how the cars were right there with you im the driveway. I loved how the bathhouse was right across from me. There was a water pump at the end of our driveway that was very convenient when we needed to wash dishes or put the fires out. We were very close to the playground which was great. The lake was beautiful but we couldn't get in the water because it was closed. That was a bummer because it was hot. The trail walk was horrible tho. There was no rhyme or reason. It was hard to follow because the trail blended in with the regular ground. Not enough signs to say go this way. We just ended up giving up. It was no longer fun. Just frustrating. Then there were things that couldn't be controlled like being shot at by big acorns throughout the day non stop. The loud airplanes flying over your head at night. & a million gazillion daddy long legs that have taken over. They were everywhere. But hey that's their home. We're the visitors. But all im all it was a nice 1st experience.
Good spot for picnic,family fun...has play area for kids... Nice place to visit.
Lovely place to relax! Gotta pay for parking though.
Well kept. Nice camping sites. Great place if you love the outdoors!
Lake is very nice. Camp site is good. Shower facilities are very poor. Need completely renovated.
Falls Lake is one of the most beautiful lakes you'll ever see. It is also a trophy bass lake, favored by the tournaments every year. In Autumn, the mix of hardwoods and evergreens paints a heavenly picture. The park is always maintained well by the staff and the boat launches are just right, with any water level. Love this place.
Very clean campsite. Bathrooms are close to walk to, with clean facilities. Definitely a great Park to take your family and friends for a nice camping trip.
We stayed in Site 26 on Holly Ridge. Always a good time. Nice walking trails. Lake is busy on weekends but not on Monday. I highly recommend. Our 2nd time and we will be back for a 3rd.
Great place for kids, adults, water activities, and peaceful camping! We spent the July weekend in the Rolling View section (B53) and never even ventured to other areas of the larger park, as we had plenty to occupy us right near our campsite. We swam, fished (free on July 4 only, licensed otherwise) hiked a few short trails, built a bonfire with magic colors, and even had our two water-cautious dogs swimming with us! It's alcohol-free, very quiet with large (many shaded) sites. Lots of friendly kids around, and firewood for sale onsite. I'd give it 5 stars if it had either 50amp service or sewer hookups at the campsites (or both!) The wastewater dump site is very near and easily accessible, but you still have to move or use a hauler. There's no bait sold onsite, so visit the nearby marina or other bait stores first, if you're fishing. The water was very warm, with only catfish biting (worms) near shore. There's a small playground, and the bath house was well kept, though the shower plumbing was inconsistent between hot and cold directions! (Test the shower water temp first for younger folk!) All in all a nice place for a camping getaway!
Beautiful, open lake. Great fishing, swimming, and boating.
The group sites are nice, with lots of seating, large campfire rings, a good number of tables, and some of them have multiple large charcoal grills. Finding level ground for a large number of tents is the only challenge.
Perfect family/ friends place. They have huge area for parking, playing. Park even have some area reserved for swimming. You can even camp here. There are multiple boat unloading area. I visited this place in early spring so it was little chillu and water was cold too. But I am pretty sure this place will be totally enjoyable in Summer days. I always loved lake Jordon, may be this can be an option to Lake Jordon
Such a peaceful place. There is plenty of parking, a changing house, a play ground, and a covered eating area. This is a perfect place to take some little ones and not feel like you need them tied to a leash. My only negative is that, depending on time of year and day of week, it does cost to get in. Well worth it!
