Weekday stays at Popular Point Campground Lake Jordan Recreation Area can run exceptionally quiet, with some loops holding only a handful of rigs. Set along Lake Jordan in Hampton, Tennessee, the campground provides electric (30-amp) and water hookups, a dump station, and access to fishing, kayaking, and swimming. Loop B sites tend to have more tree cover and spacing between sites than Loop C, though Loop C has more lakefront access with boat docking. Shower house quality varies by loop. Cell coverage on Verizon runs around two bars throughout the park, and there is no Wi-Fi. Anglers and paddlers who can time a visit mid-week will find the least crowded conditions, with Watauga Dam Campground — Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and Cardens Bluff Campground among nearby alternatives along the same stretch of water.
