Off-highway vehicle enthusiasts find Deep Water Trailt Horse Camp positioned at the end of Forest Service Road 576, a 7.5-mile drive through Uwharrie National Forest. The US Forest Service manages this established campground with drive-in, walk-in, and boat-in access options, though reviewers note the rough road conditions require four-wheel drive for water-adjacent sites.
Campers report limited cell service with about one bar for major carriers, and the area experiences heavy use during OHV season from April through December. The campground allows pets, campfires, and alcohol, with vault toilets available. Some dispersed sites accommodate large groups along Moccasin Creek Road. Art Lilley Campground provides an alternative less than a mile away for those seeking easier road access.
