    What a nice lake Lake Robertson is. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Blue Ridge Mountains. There's so much to do here at Lake Robertson that you need to camp here for a while, Jefferson National Forest is a splendid place for that, and the Rich Hole Trail offers hiking at its best. This lake is so wonderful. In case you don’t mind getting soaked, you can always go whitewater paddling on Colliers Creek, and there's some out of the ordinary stuff to distinguish  
   at Robertson Dam near Lake Robertson. This lake is one of the great places here in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Lake Robertson gets much water; July is the wettest month with most rain, and the driest month is December. Whitewater paddling is glorious on Simpson Creek. You'll need more than a day to look at everything Lake Robertson has to offer, you can camp at Natural Bridge Koa. If only every site had this much outdoors amusing stuff, what a great world
 
               it would be. There's no such thing as a bad day of skiing at nearby The Homestead; there's nice hiking along the North Mountain Trail.
This lake is so wonderful. Robertson Lake is a nearby lake that you could stop at. Blacks Creek is in the neighborhood of Lake Robertson and is always a bliss to stop at, and a great nearby hotel is Natural Bridge Hotel. But wait, there's more cool stuff to do in the Blue Ridge Mountains. A lake nearby is Lexington Reservoir, and after a long day outdoors Lexington - Days Inn Keydet General is a delightful place to spend a night or two.

...tural beauty you'll find the Natural Bridge KOA. Nestled between the Blue Ridge and Alleghany Mountain ranges and surrounded by over 58,000 acres of National Forest, we have anything your adventurous heart desires.

The magnitude and beauty of the Natural Bridge, a National Historic Landmark and One of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, compels many visitors to come to the area. Surveyed by a young George Washington and once owned by Thomas Jefferson, the Bridge provides a unique, historic, picturesque and natural experience.

Lexington, just 8 miles north of the campground, has recently netted a big share of tourist interest as one of the best small towns in America. With its rich historical background and an entire downtown that is listed on the State and National register of Historic Places, Lexington has much to offer visitors year-round.

Back at the KOA , you can relax in a quiet, wooded, rural setting, nestled in the foothills of the valley. We have a swimming pool, game room and a well-stocked convenience store & gift shop. If you don't feel like cookin...

Pike Pond
18 miles away
I must say that there is no type of camping facilities at Pike Pond! This is a POND not a lake, it is a place to fish. To get to the pond, you travel a short distance via a gravel road. I have lived in the Alleghany County area for over 25 years and have never heard of one person to camp or swim at this pond.Karnes Creek is for the most part a dry creek bed that does not support any type of fishing or swimmming. If you dare to do whitewater paddling on the Jackson River, please be advised that a large paper mill is located on this river. The water above this mill is wonderful, but BEWARE! Many people who own land along the river that is not considered polluted think that they own the river itself!!! These people do know that they do not own the water but feel that they own the land that the water passes over...if you decide to navigate this water way make sure you stay in your boat and not touch the river bed. The Buckhorne Family Campground is a wonderful place to stay. This campground is a great place to do family camping....
