Whether you’re rolling in with your RV, pitching a tent, or just unplugging for the weekend, Mountain Creek Campground offers the perfect setting for your spring escape.
Springtime on the Trails
April brings the Appalachian Mountains to life with vibrant green trails, colorful wildflowers, and fresh forest air. It’s the perfect month to hike or bike, spot local wildlife, or snap scenic photos. Thanks to our direct trail access, you can even connect to the iconic Appalachian Trail for a mini adventure that feels epic.
Prime-Time Fishing Fun
Fishing season is in full swing! Whether you’re showing the kids how to cast for the first time or enjoying peaceful solitude by the water, April offers calm mornings and active fish. Don’t have gear? Our camp store has you covered. It’s the kind of simple joy that makes camping unforgettable.
Hayrides Are Back!
Weekend hayrides return this month—a campground tradition families and couples love. Hop aboard, wave to fellow campers, and take in the blooming landscape as we roll through the park. It’s the perfect blend of nostalgia and fresh-air fun.
Unwind at the Winery
After a day on the trails or at the lake, relax with a glass in hand at our onsite winery. Sample seasonal pours, enjoy the company of fellow campers, and maybe bring a bottle back to your fire pit for a night under the stars. April evenings never tasted so good.
