Shirley C: Lake Linville is a beautiful lake lots of good fishing, hiking, camping Spend 4 months at the campgrounds every year, the management is great, the restaurant has the best catfish in town. I love the campfires making new friends and creating memories..
Doug: We are thinking about coming down to the lake on the 31 of july and stay to days never been to this lake. We live in Bath co. Would it be worth the trip? How is the the fishing?
Cheyenne C.: Hey, this is the best lake you will ever see in your life. Ha ha ha ha lol, just a family lake.
Eric: Just wanted to know where this lake actually is. Is this the lake that sits on the right side of 75 when heading south?
Loretta: I love going to Lake Linville!!
Josh: This lake is awesome,and if you seen the fish in the bottom of it you would be surpirsed. There is some good catfishing and any other kind of fish. I have caught a bunch of fish out of it.
Brandon: Worthless mud hole. Way to small but they still manage to let people ski and ride huge boats which turns the whole lake upside down and makes it muddy and murky mess. Fishing is a waste of time and the campground is nothing but a laugh.....
brian and donna walls: Our family loves this lake and recreational area. We try to visit it at least 1 time a year. This also goes for our extended family.

A quick spree to Little Renfro Creek in the vicinity of Lake Linville is a perfect idea; paddling on Rockcastle River is so much fun. I can't stop, cause I'm havin' a fine time here at Lake Linville. Stay the night at Renfro Valley KOA, and a brilliant nearby hotel is Days Inn Renfro Valley Mount Vernon. This lake is one of the great places here in the Cumberland Plateau Mountains. Life's too short to enjoy all the fun things in the Cumberland Plateau Mountains.

Lake Linville
 | There is no swimming area on Lake Linville unless you take your boat out to the middle of the lake and dive in....Lake Linville is so much fun! Instead of having to wait for the fourth of July they have fireworks on July first. It's always fun to go there on a nice, hot sunny day....My family and I love camping at Lake Linville. Everyone is friendly and we always have a great time!... |

Winding Stain Gap Trail
 | 19 miles away my uncle has a deer hunting cabin at the loop area, cool place to get away... |
Rockcastle Narrows Trail
 | 19 miles away This is a great moderately to strenuous trail with three points of attack. I suggest that you begin at the trailhead near the bathrooms in the camping area. It is uphill for the first 30 or 40 mins but you go through a cave, experience a cool waterfall and see mature hemlocks. Then there is a great view to the left of the trail at the top of the climb. Return now back to the trail and it is all rolling, flat or downhill to the Rockcastle River. You will see more waterfalls, copper stained rocks and a rock house. Going down you will follow the wild river to the narrows. Get off the trail and experience the hugh rocks, water and tranquility. You will procede to the two pools on the river referred to as the big and little dickie. More quiet walking, a turkey, squirrel and palisades on your right as you head to the point of the beginning, your car. I rate this trail as an overall 7.0 on a scale of 1 to 10. About four to five miles.... |
