The positive thing for this campground is the distance to downtown Asheville. It's easy to get an uber or lyft into town. Otherwise, our stay was a disappointment. One of the reasons for booking here was the "dog walk" that was advertised. I asked at the office where it was and was told that people walk their dogs everywhere.

We were sitting outside playing acoustic guitar and singing. Management came by and told us we had to stop. We had checked the quiet hours when we checked in, so we knew we were in compliance with the campground's rules. The majority of campers appear to be long-term, so I guess one of them complained. There is a lot of road noise, so I don't see how we were causing a problem. The laundry area appeared clean, but my husband said the men's shower was a dribble of water. We spent two nights there. We will not be back.

As noted, the location is positive for exploring Asheville & access to stores, etc. However, there's no truth in advertising. Don't let the site photos fool you...beautiful mountain views are not the norm. The CG is showing it's age. The pads are not level and are beaten up. You'll get road noise and the cable signal is poor.

Pros: close to downtown Asheville, nice showers, nice outdoor pool Cons: VERY noisy from overlooking interstate highway traffic, crowded sites, no fenced off-leash dog run area, a bit over-priced

Bathrooms were disgusting. Not clean no hot water. Very disappointing Property sits between two interstates and traffic noise is constant.

I recently purchased a Class A RV and have been visiting parks in the Southeast and Midwest. Stopped at Bear Creek for one night when traveling through the area. After seeing the ratings on Good Sam I had high expectations but unfortunately the park did not deliver. I was happy to have a pull through site with full hookups but annoyed and disappointed it was literally ON the busy road leading into the park. No gate or security.

Will choose another option next time I travel through.

Nice and quiet place to stay. Small and old pool and good for kids. Not a lot of COVID cleaning though and they don't think masks are needed. Could use some updating, if you stay in the lower lot, it's seasonal and the seasonal campers are grumpy and entitled. Great location to get downtown though and visit breweries and sights.

This park is not set up for motorhomes like my 38 foot class A or larger. Sites are extremely close together and it's difficult to back into sites because of the narrow road and cars parked along that road. The underside of the front fiberglass facing of my rig was damaged as I backed over uneven concrete while positioning into my site. The WIFI is unusable. On the good side, the view is very nice and the person in the office is very friendly. I did not use the rest room or laundry facilities.

This is a hidden little gem. We absolutely loved the view. Convenient to everything in Asheville. We even got an Uber ride to and from Asheville so we could enjoy South slope without worry of driving.

RV'rs. Please read yelp reviews before booking! I don't understand stand why this place has such a high GS rating? It is very crowded in a tight space conveniently located between two major interstate changes, so it's very noisy, the spots are not large and made on sloping cracked and bulged asphalt and concrete.

It is a peculiar mix of RV park,full time residences, houses and some sort of industrial working area. Above all the staff was were absolutely horrible to deal with!!! I believe the manager "who you will read quite a bit of review on, on the open internet" was impossible and threatening. A user while we were there simply inquired about moving to a larger spot as his 40' unit would not fit in the spot she argued that it would. She literally started yelling at this elderly customer who simply wanted compromise, and accused him of trespassing and called the police! When walking my dog on a leash he got excited and starting jumping around and barking at her golf cart and wanted to play she circled back and told me to get out! She Very rudely yelled we can't stay any longer and wanted that dog gone! Im sure this was a nice place when under her parents management but had gone down hill since she tears it as her personal property that customers are violating please read all the open reviews before booking. Defiantly not worth the drama. Sure the bathrooms we're clean and the pool however, not open often looked nice there are much easier places to stay and enjoy your time in Asheville.

At 6:00 at night the trash cans were full ./ By morning there every one is stacking bags up outside. BUt what do you expect with small cans. But the recycle cans were little used. My big issue was the trailer space and parking. SPaces were narrow and not deep - at least the ones we were in. Once you dropped your trailer - you had to pull your vehicle across the front. To get into our site - we had to drive in to the site across from us. Not a lot of room. Now when every one came in (Friday night). Every one has filled up and parked out front. I had to get my neighbor to get up early to move his vehicle temporarily so I could get out. Noisy from traffic and kids ( 12 between 3 families) riding bikes with no lights at night. This is my and others experience. On other RV sites this place is rated about a 2-3 out of 5. That seems fitting

The campground also delivered for us on having easy access from the Interstate, paved roads and paved sites, clean bath houses and scenic mountain view. Yes, it is close to the interstate and there is some traffic noise at times, but that is also why it is so convenient to explore the area. If you are looking a central spot to visit the area, we would recommend staying here.

The only explanation is they have not reviewed the park for quite some time. On the positive side, the park is excellently located near Asheville, and only minutes from the Biltmore. While we were not impressed with the park, we would stay there again if there were no other options.

The 'park' itself is so small and offers nothing, really, the laundry is small 2 and 2, is old, dirty and run down. I washed a 1/2 load and had to use both dryers to dry. The pool is being relined ONLY becasue the city is making them do it. The bathrooms however must have been updated in the last few yrs w/fresh paint, floors and countertops. The only bright spot of the facities offered. The view is stunning. And its close to the Biltmore Estate

The surrounding countryside is gorgeous and I'd camp away from the city next time to enjoy the beautiful outdoors and skip the whole Asheville thing. That said, the campground itself was nestled on a rise between two busy interstates. Our rig was shaking at times from the vibrations off the freeways. You could hear the noise all day and all night. We did manage to snag one of the few sites with a view which was nice. I used the laundry room and some machines worked better than others. It wasn't great. We did not use restrooms so I can say anything about those. Hookups worked fine. Wifi was a joke. I never once got any internet reception the whole week we were there. Oh yes, on the final night, they broke their own cardinal rule of no late check ins after 10 pm no matter what, even if you have a reservation. At 10:20 pm a huge 45 footer came rumbling in complete with airbrakes and proceeded to spend an hour trying to shoehorn his gigantic rig into a spot meant for a travel trailer. There were 6 good Samaritans out there with flashlights trying to help him. It was actually hilarious and provided some free entertainment on an otherwise dull night. Oh yes, we will never stay here again.

I'm sorry but this RV park does not live up to it's advertised marketing. The ONLY good point was the ease of backing in to our site. Firstly, however of all the many RV Parks we've stayed at across the world we've never been to one where the swimming pool is only open during office hours (ie 9am -5pm). So if after a hard days drive to get here you'd like a swim and it's after 5pm, forget it! Second, the facilities were difficult for us to get to. Either a long walk or a steep climb to either...

So if after a hard days drive to get here you'd like a swim and it's after 5pm, forget it! Second, the facilities were difficult for us to get to. Either a long walk or a steep climb to either of the nearest restroom/showers. Add to that my wife refused to use them after our 2nd day here as the ladies shower cubicles were flooded (again) and full of caterpillars. Thirdly, I know nothing of the secrets of a laundry but my wife used two washing machines and two dryers to do our laundry which took her over 4 hours! She tells me the dryers were next to hopeless. Finally, forget the internet. I have years of IT training and my guess is they have bought and installed the cheapest 'home' modem they could find just so they can advertise they have wifi. Despite the staff's rubbish claims of us being too far from the modem we had a full 4 bars, "Excellent" reception on our laptops and mobile phones but NO INTERNET. This generally indicates a small modem with insufficient 'slots' to cater for more than a few people at a time. (Hence when someone did get hooked up they wouldn't log off.) The staff's "couldn't give a ....." attitude was the final straw. We leave tomorrow and will never be back. P.S. I spoke with several other campers and these sentiments were echoed by each and everyone of them.

I would stay there again and plan to go to see the sites in Ashville.

Several reviewers have said the High Good Sam Ratings are inflated and I have to agree. Staff seemed preoccupied when we checked in and that was our only interaction with her. The park is old and spaces a bit cramped. Did not visit the showers or restrooms. The view from the campsite was the redeeming aspect of the experience. An open view across the valley and hills of Asheville was gorgeous. We'd like to try some of the other camps in the area but would stay here again if we get back to NC

It's hard to believe this place is full in the middle of November, but definitely shows the lack of options in the area. There are nicer areas of the park, but we were pinned in a tiny site, barely able to extend the slide, and 10' away from the main road. The shower facilities were outdated with the showers being hard to manage. How hard is it to put a full sized shower curtain up to prevent water from getting all over the floor and my stuff?

We love Asheville, but not enough to stay at Bear Creek RV Park again. Judging by the difficulty in getting a decent campsite, Asheville, NC is a very popular place. To date, camping here has not been a good experience. Add Bear Creek RV Park to the list of overpriced, apathetic businesses who appear to over-represent themselves to transient travelers for their existence, because they are acutely aware of the limited campsite availability in Asheville. PROS: - Location. - The site we were on was somewhat level. CONS: - You know what they say about first impressions... Ours was of the sad, humorless, yet efficient, woman who registered us. Her apathetic demeanor was a portent of our experience at Bear Creek RV Park. - Their website touts the view from their campsites, and their proximity to Biltmore Estates. We have zero interest in the usual tourist traps, and our view was of the park office, the interstate, and the driveways of the residences of the park owners. Of course, we paid the same rates as those few who actually had a view. - NOISY. Our site was nestled between Interstate 40, and I-240/26. Normal conversation outside was difficult because of the stereo Jake braking of trucks on the downhill stretches of the interstate. - The WiFi sucked. Having camped at hundreds of campgrounds, we are aware of the practice of advertising "complimentary" internet. They don't intentionally include in the price of the site because they don't want to be held accountable for the terrible performance of the service. This is obviously the case here, as we were barely able to download simple emails. The WiFi signal was strong, but the internet service was consistently bad regardless of the time of day. - Cable TV. Same as above. The standard definition of the analog system was barely watchable. - The bathrooms were well below average. However, they were reasonably clean for, what appeared to be, 20+ year old plumbing fixtures. BOTTOM LINE: We will never stay there again. It was definitely not worth the money.

Worst RV park, private or chain we have ever stayed at! Bathrooms are deplorable, the pull-through site is so tight it is a chore to get into the site, internet is close to unusable, employee at the desk is not sociable or helpful, the park is old, crowed and unkempt. Site was within feet of a major highway with no barrier. I would not stay there again if it were free!

Stayed here one night to be close to Asheville. Not sure how this can be rated 10s. It is very convenient. Staff was nice to us but clearly busy and a bit overwhelmed. Pull throughs sometimes are small and difficult to get into. It is a very busy place. There isn't much there except close to Asheville.

Ignore the Good Sam ratings for this park, I can't understand why they are so high. This park is way way below average, we needed a overnight in this area and I picked it based on the Good Sam ratings, big mistake!! Please everyone read the individual reviews, I did not and severely regret it.

For $45.00 we got a "pull through" site sandwiched between I-40 to our rear and a two lane county road 30' from our front grill. The site is very narrow, we can't put out our living room slide on the drivers side because of a sewer vent pipe 8 feet in height. the neighboring concrete pad is about 4 feet from our steps and the sewer connect for that site is about two feet from our lower step. Fortunately no one is parked there yet. The park is built on a hillside in a hodge-podge manner to maximize spaces with no thought to an enjoyable stay by the customer. The spaces on either side of us are 50 amp and ours is 30 amp for some reason which wasn't disclosed on check-in. On a positive note the wi-fi works pretty good and I am using it to post this review. My wife and I have stayed in over 50 parks in the last year and half, this park rates in the bottom 3.

Nice park with level sites. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay. What makes this park appealing is it's proximity to Asheville. It's noisy because it is right next to the freeway but we didn't go there to sit around the park so the noise didn't bother us. The wifi wasn't very good. The park is old but very well maintained. The site we had was a pull through and was big enough for our 35' MH and car dolly.

Worst RV park! DO NOT STAY HERE!!!! Extremely small sites, extremely rude staff, extremely loud highway noise. You would be much better off staying at a state campground.

Thought would be a great park with the Good Sam ratings we saw. Spaces way too small, uninviting pool. Laundry room dirty. Check in gal not at all friendly. Lots of road noise and entrance to park very dangerous. Would not go back.

The main road is narrow, every site is small, and at most sites, there is not room to park a trailer and a truck. Everyone had to park on the main road, and that doesn't leave room for big rigs to pass. We will not return.

Don't go here, people are rude.... well.. they are nice till after you pay, pool is small and nasty and closes at the same time as the office.(early!) You will pay the same for a site that is tiny and on the road as you will as a big site with a view, so if u do stay make sure you get a good site. Would rather stay in the Walmart parking lot to be honest

The pictures on the campground website are very deceiving. Only a couple of sites have great views, the rest of the sites have no views. As for the sites they are just too small, and very cramped. The site we had and many others like it have the picnic table placed right next to the adjacent sites hook ups including the black water. Local ordinance also states that you can not have a wood burning fire unless you have a pit that is off the ground. They do not supply the pit. I am unable to provide... Read More

I am unable to provide a review of the pool, bathrooms, and WIFI as I did not use any of these. The campground is situated in between two major highways. I expected noise and there was plenty of it. I will not be returning to this campground. If you are looking for a spot to just park and sleep, then this is it. I would not call this camping. The ratings by goodsam are just a bit too high.

Good Sam ratings for this park are misleading to say the least. The sites are extremely close to each other. This is a very noisy park. Sites are adjacent to busy interstate and placement on high plateau above highway seems to magnify the truck noise which goes on day and night. We paid for a week and left early to get some rest elsewhere. I will say the staff was pleasant and helpful. Would have asked to move to a quieter site but they are all backed up to busy roadways.

Restrooms are in need of serious repair. The dog walk is adjacent to I-40 and the extreme noise was upsetting for the dogs. Other campers were not picking up after their dogs which is not the fault of the park but perhaps this should be stressed at checkin. I will never spend another night in this campground and could not recommend to anyone unless they are totally deaf and not traveling with pets.

This campground is conveniently located to visit Asheville and the Biltmore Estate. It has an odd arrangement of sites but it works. They have a pool but we didn't use it, the free WiFi worked well but was intermittently out of service. The driveways are asphalt and site pads are concrete. We were in a pull through that was somewhat short and narrow (Site 12B). It was near the road and you can hear interstate traffic on the other side but this did not disturb our sleep.

The bathrooms were consistently clean. We used their cable service which has an extensive channel selection and worked well. We had a full hookup site with 30amp electric. We paid $40.00 per night.

We came to Asheville to attend a wedding, so being near the city was preferred. We also wanted to rent a car as we do not tow a vehicle. Making a reservation was easy. Too easy. I can only assume I made a mistake and we arrived a day early, and after hours. Being new to RVing we failed to look at the bulletin board outside the office....... This could have been avoided with email confirmation. Staff was firm but fair about the mistake, and we learned something in the process. I'll review... Read More

This could have been avoided with email confirmation. Staff was firm but fair about the mistake, and we learned something in the process. I'll review only what we saw/used. Where we stayed we pointed toward the road the RV Park is on, and the interstate highway was behind us. Not ideal, but it worked. Spots were paved and fairly level. The water in the shower pan said we were tilting back and a little right. Our spot had 50/30 amp, H2O, sewer, cable and wifi. We did not use the cable, the wifi was fair. There is a sign in the office that says wifi was not meant for streaming movies. There is a pool. We didn't use it, and didn't see anybody else using it. But, it looked inviting. The office was knowledgable about activities around Asheville, and sold tickets to Biltmore. Our dogs liked the dog walk area. Lots of good smells there, and everybody seemed to clean up after their dogs. We got a car from Enterprise. It's been a while since renting from them. I give them 10/10. They also showed us a good way to get downtown. If I come back to Asheville, I would stay here again. Its proximity to the highway is not the best, but it's not a deal breaker either.

We used the high rating of the Good Sam website to select this campground and were expecting a good experience, but this was one of the worst places we've stayed. We had called ahead to reserve a pull-thru site, but when we got there, they tried to put us in a back-in site. Turns out they had given the site they reserved for us to someone else. When we told them we specifically had requested pull-thru, they then put us in a site that we couldn't get into in our 35' motorhome. So we just went further... Read More

When we told them we specifically had requested pull-thru, they then put us in a site that we couldn't get into in our 35' motorhome. So we just went further until we found a site we COULD get into that they had also mentioned to us. It was so narrow that we were unable to open our awning, as it hung over the site next to us! The concrete pad was not in good condition either. The bathrooms were very small. My shower curtain had a tear in it that I had to use my t-shirt to obtain privacy in the shower. Also, difficult to regulate the water in the shower. Any time anyone else used the water or flushed a toilet you had to be careful not to get burned or frozen by water too hot or too cold. This felt like a place where they were using every spare inch of space to crowd you in to get the most money. The only appeal we can think of is that this campground is in Asheville and not far off I-40, but if we go to Asheville again, we will go out of our way to find another place to stay!

Beautiful campground and very helpful staff. Spaces were large and level, pool looked great (rainy). Road to/from is steep (as is the rest of the region).

I HONESTLY think the ratings are WAY TOO HIGH for this "park." The sites are so very, VERY narrow. Our neighbor's picnic table was practically hitting our slide out. To me, this is just a place to PARK your RV and sleep if you plan on doing Asheville during the day. You can't build fires, and there is no real privacy to "hang out" on your site. And even if there was, there is *no room.* The bathrooms are NOT a 10. broken tiles, and holes in the shower walls are not a 10, in my opinion. It isn't... Read More

The lady at the office was very, very nice. Our concrete pad looked like it had be jackhammered. Seriously, the concrete was broken with a lot of dangerous pieces sticking up 3-4 inches. There are NO lights in the park, so tripping over the concrete slabs sticking up was a concern. Some sites have been paved with blacktop (our friend's was) and are fine. It really IS between two highways, and it IS noisy, but nothing woke me up out of my sleep. So, that wasn't such a huge issue. The location is pretty great as far as campgrounds go close to Asheville. We took Uber into town. The spots are so small and narrow, that if there are people in front of you, they almost have to park in the road, which made it had for our friends to back their 30 foot travel trailer. It was a bit difficult for our littler 21 footer! I don't think I'd stay here again. But we were LITERALLY there to just sleep, so the $40 a night fee wasn't bad at all.

Showers were far from a 10*. They were roomy, but shower heads were in an odd location and you had to use zen to determine where the location was for hot water. Site was very cramped and littered. Cable was on and off, but never the campgrounds fault. Staff/owner was friendly, but office was left vacant two out of three times we needed something and phone calls for reservations were not returned. They advertise "Biltmore View," but that must be when all the leaves are off the trees. We probably... Read More

The spaces are very small, we camped across from a house and garage. My truck seemed like it was out in the road, very narrow drives. Had a beautiful view of the Biltmore property across the interstate. restrooms were so-so, Staff was friendly and helpful. Not a lot for children to do.

We spent a few days here and it was alright, but I would not have wanted to stay longer. The 10 rating for the bathroom is extremely misleading. Not sure who rates this campground, but I would put it more around a 5. The bath house on the lower level had 2 unisex bathrooms that consisted of one toilet and one shower. They were old and not really dirty, but not really clean. I have a family of 4 and there was not enough hot water for all of us to take showers back to back. The campground was mostly... Read More

The campground was mostly empty while we were there, so I could not imagine how the bathrooms would service a full campground. The sites are tight and close to the highway with all the noise that comes with it, but it is convenient to Asheville and the Biltmore Estate. If bathrooms are not important and you like the convenience of a good location then I would recommend this campground for you. But if bathrooms and space is important, I would not recommend it for you.

Just too crowded. Had I known how small the sites were and that I was going to be parked 50 feet from a busy highway I would have looked elsewhere. There is a dog walking area with no bags or disposal, just a lawn area at the end of the park next to a busy road. The staff was very nice and helpful. Location is ideal for getting around Asheville and surrounding attractions. Forget about using the laundry room, equipment in need of repair or replacement and no ventilation.

Just too crowded. Had I known how small the sites were and that I was going to be parked 30 feet from a busy highway I would have looked elsewhere.

While the location is very good for accessing the Asheville area, the facilities are a bit run down and the sites are very close together. We had a big rig coming in after dark hit our car while trying to back into their site, our car was well off the road, just a very narrow road for big rigs to maneuver and it is very dark, no lighting. The staff was very nice as were the other travelers but can only rate as 3 stars.

The campground was on a narrow winding road and close to the highway. It was all paved with a small grassy area and no fires allowed. We were camping in the owners yard next to his garage. The area was clean with pleasant staff. The space was tiny and not shaded on the lower level.There were no place to take a walk..It was not a good place for our dog.

Campground is clean, staff helpful and friendly. Didn't use showers and the pool was closed since we stayed late season. Location is ideal for getting around Asheville and surrounding attractions but it comes at the cost of being between two highways. A lot of traffic noise 24 hrs a day. Wifi worked ok but was nearly impossible to use during evening hours. There is a dog walking area with no bags or disposal, just a lawn area at the end of the park next to a busy road.

What I liked: Great help at the desk. Very knowledge of the area. Preprinted maps and instructions. Reservations were quick and the staff is very professional at the desk and phone. Obviously a lot of experience with campers. I liked the easy pull through. Sort of level. Paved cement. Ashville has no flat spots so be prepared to work your jacks. Full hookup was a cinch.

The place was clean for a high traffic campground. I liked the trash barrels near the campers. They have a good cable tv network. The Wi-Fi worked well for us. I liked how close we were to the Ashville area stuff. What I did not like: The ratings on Good Sam 10-10-10 is over rated. The truck noise is heavy with jake brakes and lots of tire noise. The bathrooms and showers were just ok, not a 10. When we first arrived, it was hot and humid. So were the bathrooms. Later after it cooled down they were better. Our pull through put our rv nose near a turn on a busy country road. We were only a few feet from this road with no fence. This made my wife nervous. I did not like the dog doo on the grass near our camper. Shame on the dog owner who did not clean up. I did not like not having a fire ring.

We actually were right on a rode and heard the interstate traffic behind us. The internet did not work at all. The office staff was friendly and helpful. Sites were flat.

Pleasant stay until next to last day. Early arrival of another camper caused office to double up the space we were assigned. Not a good fix as it cramped both parties and caused friction.

We have stayed at a 10,10,10 parks, and it is not fair to them to rate this one that high. Showers were old and grout not clean. No hot water in showers either of 3 days and no air in showers. Sites were extremely small. Lots of noise from highway. Wifi didn't work for us anytime. We were told it gets too many people on it, but they only have 100 sites. Did not have pick-up bags for dogs.
