Art Lilley Campground

Art Lilley Campground serves as a rugged, primitive basecamp located within the Uwharrie National Forest. This federal site is managed by the USFS and is best suited for outdoor enthusiasts looking to access the extensive local off-highway vehicle trail system. The terrain is defined by the diverse topography of the Uwharrie region, offering a natural setting for those who enjoy a true back-to-basics wilderness experience.

As a primitive campground, the site offers limited facilities, including basic vault toilets and access to nearby hiking trails. There are no utility hookups available, so campers should arrive prepared for self-sufficient, dispersed-style camping. Whether you are tent camping or utilizing an RV, the site provides a quiet, year-round location to stage your adventures.

This campground is ideal for off-road riders and experienced campers who prefer a minimalist environment over full-service resorts. By staying at Art Lilley, visitors are perfectly positioned to explore the designated orange-diamond marked trail system while helping protect the forest by remaining on established paths.
