Davidson River Campground offers camping and outdoor activities for the whole family. The campground boasts several loops of shaded campsites, as well as access to hiking trails, fishing spots, waterfalls and several nearby attractions within Pisgah National Forest. It lies just four miles west of the town of Brevard and less than an hour from the city of Asheville. The facility is open year-round.

The facility provides hot showers and restrooms with flush toilets.

Campers can purchase ice and firewood on-site.

Dump station and potable water on site.

Generators may be used up to 4 hours per day between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.; generators not allowed on Poplar Loop (sites 99-113).

Campsites are available year-round. Reservations are required during the main season, which typically runs from late March through mid-November. During the off-season (mid-November through late March), campsites are available on a first-come, first-served basis for one-night stays only.

Reservations open on a 6-month rolling calendar, and availability is limited—especially on weekends and holidays. Weekday bookings are strongly recommended when possible.
