Tate Branch

Go spot to unwind no cell service. Dirt road getting there was long narrow and had a lot of curves and one lane bridges.

Right by the River

The campground is beautiful! The sites are very spacious and not right on top of each other. If you want riverside, come early as these sites are first come, first serve. Even if you're not lucky enough to get right on the river, They have more that's just a VERY short walk to the rushing waters! Bear proof trashcans, great fire pit WITH attached grill so you won't need to lug yours from home! No electric, water or septic hookups but they do have a couple pit toilets. Perfect for tent camping or small travel trailer/van/pop-up. They close two of them down come late fall/early winter time so if you're traveling a good distance be sure to check website to make sure it's open!! Perfect place to get away from it all!! NO cell service!! Be sure to bring enough water unless you're planning on boiling the river water!! Beautiful is not enough of a word for this place!
