Easy in easy out even with a 35' travel trailer. I got in past business hours and my reservations were still ready. Picked everything up and set up. A ranger was patrolling the area and actually escorted me to my site. Setup was easy. Spacing is a bit tight but manageable. A good place to stage from if you are exploring Waynesville and the immediate area.

We really enjoyed our stay at Stonebridge! We came during the off season and rented a campsite by the creek. Full hook-ups and they put motion lights at each site so if you have to hook up at night, you can still see. It was mid-December and they also added heat tape to every hose spicket (hydrant). The spaces were a bit tight so I would recommend booking for a slightly larger camper than what you... We really enjoyed our stay at Stonebridge!

It was mid-December and they also added heat tape to every hose spicket (hydrant). The spaces were a bit tight so I would recommend booking for a slightly larger camper than what you have so you will have enough room for your camper and a vehicle. The playground was very nice and the game room was a nice touch. The bathrooms are probably the best I have seen at any campground so far, offering a private space with a shower and toilet behind a full door. Everything was very well maintained and staff members came by during and after heavy winds to pick branches/limbs up from around campsites as well. This is also the first campground we’ve stayed at that was thoughtful in how they word listings for the sites to include that a tree may impede your ability to put your awning out, and that there are split rail fences at the creek on some sites due to damage from Hurricane Helene. We enjoyed the peace and quiet here because there are very few people camping here this time off year, and we opted to stay two extra days. Lydia and Lori were both very friendly.

We had our first visit early November. What a beautiful property! Our spot backed up to the creek and we enjoyed it so much. We loved watching the ducks and other wildlife from our camper. I enjoyed the fact that they had so many trash receptacles throughout the campground along with ample doggy waste bags. It was quiet, peaceful and perfectly located. Thanks for a fabulous week!

We stayed here when our normal hotel had no vacancy. We got one of the dry cabins and it was nice. The bathrooms were directly behind our cabin so it wasn't a long walk to use the facilities. It says they just upgraded their bathrooms and they were very nice. They had just toilet rooms and then shower rooms that had a shower, a toilet, a sink and a mirror. There was also plenty of hooks to hang yo... We stayed here when our normal hotel had no vacancy. We got one of the dry cabins and it was nice.

They had just toilet rooms and then shower rooms that had a shower, a toilet, a sink and a mirror. There was also plenty of hooks to hang your stuff on. The room was just big enough, had a mini fridge, microwave, and a TV. A smallish walk in closet and a bunk bed. We had to pay extra for sheets and the bed wasn't already made. But other than that it was a great stay. I even recommend it to my son for his trip later this fall, and I also recommend it to you.

We stayed 3 nights at Stonebridge in January 2026 and were pleased to find an RV park with very clean facilities and extremely friendly staff who assisted us with everything we needed. We added 2 additional nights to our stay when our truck broke down and had to be repaired at the local Dealership. We highly recommend Stonebridge RV Resort to anyone visiting the Maggie Valley NC area.
