DSC_0375_014Today find us pulling out of a wonderful park in North Carolina; the ‘RV Tanglewood’ Campground, located just west of Winston-Salem in Clemmons, NC.  This well manicured, 44 site RV park (no tents allowed), is conveniently located just off of I-40, but is blissfully lacking in road noise and traffic!  We had a lovely stay here, and there was so much to do without even leaving the park!

     The campground is adjacent to a 1100 acre public park that boasts all sorts of fun amenities such as TWO award-winning golf courses, and a driving range, an inexpensive grill/restaurant in the clubhouse, horseback riding, pedal boats, fishing, and tennis courts!  Just looking to relax?  The park features extensive paved walking paths for leisurely walks, biking, or jogging on.   Be sure to check out the Manor House, which is a bed and breakfast; even if you aren’t interested in staying at the Manor House, they have an incredible Arboretum maintained by master gardeners.
     If you are family camping with kids, Tanglewood is an excellent destination campground (with no extra kid fees!)!  DSC_0182_084The park has a fun water park and pool, a old steam locomotive that the kids can play on, 2 playgrounds, a BMX race course (limited access), and miles of paved paths that are great for bike riding, walking, or jogging on.  (some activities require an additional fee)
The campground runs $31/night (as of this writing), with a 14 day stay limit.  The full hookup, 20/30/50 amp sites are clean, have paved pads, include a picnic table, free cable, and most sites are within reach of the free wifi that originates in the pavilion (our connection was smoking fast while we were there!).  DSC_0394_033The campground has a nice, clean, code-secure bathhouse with showers, sites back up to mowed grassy areas, and it has 3 on-site camp hosts that ensure a clean and safe atmosphere (we found them to be very friendly and cheerful too!).
We spent 4 nights at Tanglewood, and would have enjoyed staying longer.  It’s a great park with easy interstate access to the Triad area so it makes a great basecamp for visiting all the historic and family friendly sites in Winston-Salem, High Point, and Greensboro, North Carolina.  It’s also the perfect destination park for relaxing or recreating.  Visit their RVTanglewood.com website to learn more about this great park!
