Off-road tires or four-wheel drive are required to reach this single-site dispersed camping area in Cherokee National Forest. Little Gassaway Creek sits along a challenging access road that deters casual visitors, creating a secluded spot for campers equipped with proper vehicles. The US Forest Service allows campfires, pets, and alcohol at this drive-in location near Copperhill.
Cell service reaches the area, though the remote setting and difficult approach mean few campers encounter crowds. The site works well for experienced dispersed campers who prioritize solitude and don't mind navigating rough terrain to reach their destination.
