Best Time to Camp at Mcclintic Point

Best season: summer. Summer delivers the fullest Lake Moomaw experience—warm daytime temperatures (typically mid-70s to mid-80s°F) and long daylight hours make boating, swimming, paddling, and shoreline fishing ideal.

Expect occasional afternoon thunderstorms; plan water outings for mornings and carry rain gear. Peak months: July, August, June, September Avoid: December, January, February

Natural Features and SceneryThe campground occupies a transition zone between wooded groves and sunny clearings that roll down to Lake Moomaw's shoreline. This 2,530-acre lake reaches depths of 150 feet and winds along 43.5 miles of undulating shoreline. The varied terrain creates distinct microclimates: shaded woodland pockets for hammocks and open meadows for stargazing. Each site has its own character depending on whether you choose tree cover or water views. Mist rises off the water at dawn, and sunsets over the lake draw photographers.
