Holly Flats sits within Cherokee National Forest near the Tellico River, operating as a US Forest Service campground from March through December. The drive-in and walk-in sites cost $6 per night and include basic amenities like toilets, picnic tables, and trash service, with campfires and pets both allowed.
Recent visitors report the campground can get muddy and overgrown with weeds, particularly during certain seasons. One camper noted the remote location provides quiet conditions but emphasized bringing all necessary supplies. The riverside setting offers access to water activities, though campers should prepare for variable ground conditions depending on weather and maintenance timing.
