North Carolina just might be the prettiest state in the Union, and the Statesville/I-77 KOA - with easy access on and off the interstate - invites you to settle in and enjoy it for a while. Explore the verdant Blue Ridge Mountains that roll off to the west. Take to the waters of nearby Lake Norman for a little boating and fishing or play a round of golf at lush area courses. Thrill the kids with a day at Carowinds theme park (about an hour away). Explore Old Salem Moravian Village. Ready to shop? North Carolina is famous for its furniture outlets. Time your visit for race day at Charlotte Motor Speedway or the National Hot Air Balloon Rally. Then recharge at KOA, where camping is easy, thanks to level sites, air-conditioned Camping Cabins, a fenced pet area (with shelter) for large and small dogs, as well as a playground and a game room to keep the kids entertained. Pool: Memorial Weekend - Labor Day Weekend. Max pull thru: 65 feet.
SORRY, NO PETS ALLOWED IN/AT THE CABINS and NO FIRES permitted directly on the ground (per Fire Marshal), but there are above-ground grills at the tent sites.
