Balls Creek Campground, Methodist camp meeting district near Bandy's Crossroads, United States.

Balls Creek Campground is a historic gathering place with around 310 buildings that include family dwellings, a central meeting area, and various community facilities. The layout features residential structures, a shared marketplace, and service buildings that together form a self-contained complex.

The site was founded in 1853 as an extension of an existing gathering place in the region. Its importance was officially recognized through listing on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990.

The August camp meeting continues a tradition begun in 1853, when the site split from Rock Springs Campmeeting after Lincoln County was divided. Families own and pass down the "tents", individual dwellings dating to the 1850s, and some have sold for as much as $65,000. A store called "The Shack" (c. 1940) and a small jail from the late 19th or early 20th century stand among them.

The grounds lie near Bandy's Crossroads in Catawba County, off the route between Catawba and Denver. The annual camp meeting runs through August, when the tents are occupied by their owning families; outside that month the dwellings are private property. The 2019 fire damaged 40 of 302 cabins, so some structures may still be under repair.

A major fire in 2019 destroyed a significant portion of the buildings and required an extensive emergency response from multiple surrounding areas. The event shaped the recent history of the place and necessitated the community to rebuild many of its structures.
