Cheoah Point Campground

This campground is in the beautiful Nantahala Forest. A very scenic drive and quite remote. Most of the sites are double sites so you’re essentially sharing a campsite with your neighbor. I was nervous having a fire because it was so close to the camper next to us! Lots of hikes in the area and very peaceful because it’s so remote. We have Verizon and we barely had one bar which meant we could barely send a text. The bathrooms are so-so because they were only cleaned once. Two of the bathroom doors didn’t lock and no toilet paper in one for several days(even after notifying the host).

*FYI: This is in a dry country. My wife was disappointed.

The tent sites here are nice, clean and tucked away from the general RV spots, and the showers aren't bad as long as a couple daddy long legs in the corners don't freak you out. 

Here's the downside: just across the lake is the "town" of Lake Santeetlah, which consists of a bunch of vacation homes for a bunch of loud, rich assholes who love to blare their music over their massive, outdoor sound systems, and somehow manage to scream sing even louder. Listen, Karen and Larry, I really don't need to hear your awful, off-key rendition of "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" at 11pm on a Monday. Also, thanks for ruining "Ain't No Mountain High Enough".

The lake is really clear and nice. The $15 campsites are narrowly placed between the road and the drop-off to the lake. You can walk to the beach (we didn't do this) or there is a trail down to the lake as well.

There are two cabins W/o electricity that are pretty nice. This was a nicely maintained campground with clean bathrooms and showers.
