For Lake Norman State Park: Great campground built around a knob with tall pines and good spacing with paved driveways. Some sites will take more leveling than others. Excellent bath and showerhouse. We loved hiking the 5 mile Lakeshore trail which you can reach from campsite 3. Take this short access trail to the lake for great sunset views. We had 2 bars Verizon LTE.

For Lake Norman State Park: If they had power and water you would never be able to make a reservation, it would be packed year round
We love this park
Very nice and quite
Clean bathrooms and showers
No power, water or sewer at sites
Easily fill fresh water tank at one of the spigots
We have camped with a 32 ft pull behind multiple times
We usually go in the fall and winter
Most sites aren't level
The most private sites for trailers in my opinion are sites 20 and 24

Some of the best Mountain Bike trails in NC must try Monbo
https://www.mtbproject.com/directory/8009639/lake-norman-state-park
"Monbo is fantastic in both directions (although a lot of folks prefer it clockwise -- on even years). The trail dips and turns through the forest to create a winding and flowy singletrack favorite that can be ridden 2-3 times back to back and still keep you grinning. From the trailhead at the parking lot, follow the bi-directional connector to the rod and take a left. After crossing the lake bridge, the trailhead will be on your right."
30 miles of trails

For Lake Norman State Park: We live not too far away from this state park. The sites are not level. Are great for rent campers. Might be ok for pop up or small travel trailer. Otherwise, it takes some services leveling of an RV over 15-19' long. The visitors center at the beigninning of the park is new and very nice. As his is the only state park and public Campground on Lake Norman, it would be nice if it was updated and he sites leveled out. Or perhaps they could add another Campground for rvs and leave this for the rents. There is plenty of room within the park.
