Swimming Dogs

My wife and I are planning our first trip in our new fifth. Does anyone know of a nice campground that allows dogs to swim in a lake or pond anywhere in the NC or Virginia mountain area. Thank you

  • Near Marion, VA is Hungry Mother St Park. there are some sites on a creek where dogs can play. Also has a lake but not sure if dogs are permitted since it has a swimming beach. There is also Fairystone St Park further east. Has lake, not sure about dog access. Check Goose Point on Philpott Lake, COE campgrd. Not sure about dog access but maybe.
    As said, definitely Four Paws in Rutherfordton. They cater to dogs!
  • I would recommend Four Paws in Rutherfordton NC. We go there every year. It is ~18 miles from Chimney Rock. Very nice and quiet. It has dog parks for different size dogs as well.

    Not in NC or VA, but kind of in the area in West Virginia is Pegasus Farm Campground.

    This is a wonderful place to go if you love your dogs.

    What a great looking spot! Reasonable rates too. Thanks for the HT.
