Commentary

At Grandfather Campground R.V. Resort and Recreational Park, campers bask in the beauty of North Carolina's mountains and can enjoy hiking, fishing and lots of other activities without leaving the park. During our two night stay, we went off-premise to the attractions of Grandfather Mountain and to drive along the impressive Linn Cove Viaduct on the Blue Ridge Parkway. We were pleased with our experience at this RV site, but unfortunately we didn't have time to explore all it has to offer.
