Only the two "staff" cabins have power, so be prepared with battery-powered everything. Otherwise the campsite is beautiful and very well maintained. The showers are nicer than some I've used in people's actual homes.

Came down for the Umstead 100 mile race. The camp is very nice and well maintained. The trails are also very well maintained. Excellent location for the race.

I spent 3 days here for the Umstead 100 Endurance Race and the park was wonderful. The cabins were very nice and in excellent shape for a publicly used rustic cabin.

Beautiful park. Cabins for camping with inside lavatory for those camping fir the first time. They even have access to shower but you have to reserve those campsites in advance. Plenty of places to walk, jog or bike.

The camp is beautiful and the cabins are nice. Unfortunately the close proximity to the airport means loud planes overhead every hour or so.
