The sites are extremely close so if you're camping with friends it's fine, but if you're trying to get away from it all, you may be disappointed. There was no gate or check in per se. We had paid for our site online. The bathrooms are very basic and were cleaned daily. There was some traffic driving around the loop during the day and a few cars in the night but overall it was very quiet. You have limited access to the lake itself around the loop.

Bathrooms very nice. Camp spots way too close, gravel road in campground very dusty.

Great location on Santeetlah Lake, near Joyce Kilmer/Slickrock, etc. Sites are widely spaced (except for RV, which are as close as some commercial campgrounds). RV sites do have power, and potable water is close (will have to carry it about 30 yards or so). Plenty of bathhouses, nice primitive cabins right on the water. Great host(ess), clean and quiet. We did get adequate Verizon cell service in the RV sites.

@CharlesOC943C7 · Camped on Jul 18, 2024 at Campsite #18

Beautiful location. Crystal clear lake.

@MikeM9721189 · Camped on Jun 2, 2024 at Campsite #23

It did not say that the roads were dirt ! We were on a motorcycle and dirt roads and motorcycles don't mix! There needs to be more spots with electric hook-ups.

@KarenM8822647 · Camped on Jun 1, 2024 at Campsite #20

Very nice campground. Electricity but no water at the sites. There is water in the campground so take a container to transport water from the port to your site to file your tank

@KevinO6807738 · Camped on Oct 23, 2023 at Campsite #23

We enjoyed our stay. Our site was right next to the showers and bathroom very nice facility. Hot showers, sites are a little close in the electric sites, but very nice campsite fire ring, picnic table, site was level. We camped in a 36 foot long fifth wheel. This site offered plenty of space for us. We on boarded water at one of the many water stations in the campground. Maneuvering, a large fifth wheel or motorhome is a little tight and there is no dump station at this campground. Cell phone coverage is minimal at best. We had one bar with T-Mobile. Certainly not enough connectivity to stream TV.

Lovely location. Only downside were the bathrooms were somewhat dirty.

@RichardH338463 · Camped on Aug 20, 2023 at Campsite #22

Four of us hiking segments of the Benton MacKaye Trail near Fontana and the Smokies camped here for a few days. The RV sites are a bit cramped, on top of each other. But the location on the lake is great and the hot showers were a welcome treat at the end of each day's hike.

@KarenB2737002 · Camped on Aug 3, 2023 at Campsite #18

Nice dry camping sites. We reserved one of the electric sites, Bath houses and water were close to the sites.

@LoriC1301913 · Camped on Jul 6, 2023 at Campsite #19

Cheowah point is an awesome campground. The lake is incredible and the facilities were in great condition and kept clean. My only wish is that you could reserve tent sites. I'm not sure why on the RV sites are reserable.

@MaxBE7FB6DBDE7 · Camped on Jun 14, 2023 at Campsite #23

bathrooms needed cleaning, too many dogs allowed to keep barking, only stayed one night but never did see host

@BradleyP607753 · Camped on Jun 6, 2023 at Campsite #22

Beautiful area! Beautiful Lake! Clean facilities! It was a fun experience!

@PamelaV2623CD5 · Camped on Apr 30, 2023 at Campsite #22

We camp at Cheoah every May. We love the campground and the lake, the only thing that would make it better is water hookups and either septic at each of the sites 18 through 23 or a dump station. We will be returning again this year if possible or definitely by next May.

@JudyD2233535 · Camped on Oct 18, 2022 at Campsite #23

Beautiful lake!! The non electric sites are paired up but many are spacious and have awesome lake views. Wish they were available to reserve. First come first serve only. The RV sites are cozy with their neighbors. Kayaked the lake from an awesome near by marina. Easy access. Close access to Cherohala parkway and Joyce Kilmer. Beautiful area of the country. Can’t wait to go again!

@JayW4423954 · Camped on Oct 18, 2022 at Campsite #19

Showers might have been hottest I have experienced in government campground; clean too. Campground needs a Dump Station. I can’t figure out why water is not supplied to the few electric sites; they are tightly grouped and about 100 feet from bathroom/shower facility.

@VincentD418119 · Camped on Oct 3, 2022 at Campsite #23

It was a very beautiful campground for a popup camper it was great, one thing I did not like the sites was too close to together

@JamesK1667053 · Camped on Sep 29, 2022 at Campsite #23

Campground clean and well maintained. A little disappointed there were no tent, non electric, sites reservable.

@JacobC3707411 · Camped on Aug 8, 2022 at Campsite #21

Very Nice campground. The electric sites are a little tight together but the swim area is very nice. Hot showers and fairly clean bathrooms were a plus. Absolutely beautiful setting.

@RichardS712869 · Camped on Aug 7, 2022 at Campsite #21

Location is Good, but the cramped camping accommodations are scary.

@wendys6889683 · Camped on Jul 24, 2022 at Campsite #21

Clean bathrooms and showers

@RobertM1452522 · Camped on Jul 21, 2022 at Campsite #18

Awful - a massive church group was singing and hooting it up - and our neighbors literally stayed up all night yakking . Not kidding - it was 5am when they finally passed out I guess. Bathroom dirty and toilet clogged. Never going back

@JennyM6800572 · Camped on Jul 1, 2022 at Campsite #18

We had small children and the grass was not mowed. The clover was full of honeybees which is a good thing more those who manage honeybees, but not good when you have small children. Was very disappointed in the beach area, it was mud not sand and needs some mowing done as well. Many adults as well as children are allergic to bee stings, this was a concern.

@MattA5001327 · Camped on Apr 27, 2022 at Campsite #20

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
