Where can you go camping in NC?

My friends and I want to find a cool place to go camping this summer. We live in Raleigh, but we’re willing to drive for the right adventure! Where can you camp in North Carolina?

Camping is a great way to experience a new place and save some money doing it! Luckily, there are plenty of fun and unique spots where you can go camping in NC. Here are some of the best options for camping in
North Carolina
:
  • Cape Lookout National Seashore: Get a true wilderness experience on the undeveloped islands off the Crystal Coast while you fish, birdwatch, and swim.
  • Blue Bear Mountain Camp: Set up a tent or stay in a tepee with the Blue Ridge Mountains in the background at this campground outside of
    Boone
    .
  • Sky Ridge Yurts: Leave the tent at home and enjoy the fully-equipped yurts at
    Bryson City
    with a vista of the Smoky Mountains—which you’ll love after a full day of whitewater rafting, hiking, and other outdoor adventures.
  • Roanoke River Platform Sites: Head to the Roanoke River near
    Windsor
    for a one-of-a-kind camping experience on riverside platforms that’ll make you feel totally one with nature.
  • Asheville Glamping: If you’re not looking to rough it, you can glamp it up in
    Asheville
    in anything from treehouses and tents to vintage trailers and domes that have everything you need to be comfy and cozy.
Depending on where you’re coming from, you may need to drive a bit to get to these gems. In that case, make sure you add
roadside assistance
to your car insurance policy before you hit the road. This coverage will take care of you if you get stranded with a flat tire, dead battery, and more—and
