Beautiful area in the Cataloochee Valley

True, the last 10 miles is a single lane gravel road but if you want a respite from the hustle and bustle in a quiet environment with plenty of wildlife this is for you.  I camped here for 3 nights solo and while I wasn't hiking the nearby trails I was relaxing in my hammock reading.  The nights were dark - no light polution. The scenery is beautiful and the campground is almost like camping in the Back Country setting. The Campground does have Restrooms but no Showers.   Also, if you want to see the 'highlights' of the smokey's be prepared for a drive.
