August 16-18 Camping near Saluda, NC


Orchard Lakes turned out to be a great campground - it seemed a little pricey at first, but it included a lot - a zip line, rec room (games were free), soccer field, several holes of golf, a pond, canoes, kayaks, etc.

From Ronnie :

Okay, here is the scoop. We are going to be staying at Orchard Lake Campground in Saluda NC. It is a lot closer than going to Mile High.  Their street address is:

460 Orchard Lake Rd.
Saluda, NC 28773

The group site was taken so I reserved 3 sites (33,34,35) for Friday and Saturday nights. The cost is $35 per site per night. We'll divide up the cost based on headcount. They said we can come in early Friday for anyone who wants. The current plan is to go tube on the Green River on Saturday dependent on water level. It is not very far to Pisgah if the group would rather go to Sliding Rock. The campground also has lots of stuff to do there. I am going to take some fishing gear as well. I am taking Friday off and plan to head up there early. We may even go do the Gorges Zipline on Friday if anyone else is interested. Scott may go up early Friday and paddle if anyone is interested as well.

I will put a food list together this weekend. I figure everyone will be on their own Friday due to varying arrival times. Saturday night, if no one objects, I am thinking we will all go to Green River BBQ in Saluda for supper.
