Great Place
By Jim, 08/18/09
Just returned from a 2-night stay with my wife and 2 children (6 and 8). Ash Grove was exactly what it was advertised and hoped to be - a quiet, clean, family-oriented campground. Steve and Mark were the consummate hosts, making sure that we knew the ins and outs of the campground and the local natural attractions. The bathhouse was clean and fully-functional. There are laundry facilities, a courtesy phone (no cell coverage) and morning coffee. Firewoood is available at a reasonable price, and each site has a fire ring, picnic table and flat area for a tent. Easy access to water and trash cans, clean wheelbarrows for shuttling gear, etc to/from the campsite. There is a playground for the kids (minimal - swings and see-saws - but enjoyable) and some short nature trails that wander through the property. We are pretty protective of our children, but were very comfortable letting them walk up to the bathhouse and on the trails on their own. I hope to get the opportunity to visit Brevard and stay at Ash Grove again - very nice spot!
