Kerr Lake State Recreation

I absolutely love this lake. We have yet to camp here, but we love swimming and bbq’ing here. It’s beautiful and what more could you ask for?

A great option for glamping (glamorous camping) just outside of the Triangle. At about $ 20 a night for a tent plot of land you get:
— Easy access. About an hour from Durham on major highways.
— A level gravel/​dirt section of land directly on Kerr Lake with enough space for 2 cars and 2 tents
— A picnic table and a stone campfire ring
— Running clean water at the plot entrance (not functional in the winter)
— Clean bathrooms and semi-​clean showers (serviced at least twice a day)
— Pet friendly
— Boat ramp and dock
— Online booking
— Beauty
What you don’t get:
— Great hiking trails. Although, there is a ton of area in the park to walk around.
— Freedom to drink booze. We do, but we don’t act like fools. It is against the rules so YMMV.
Definitely a fun place for a kicked back weekend with friends.
