Granted there are port-a-jons in camp. We rented the whole campground and there will not be anyone other than us around.

Tellico river is a 1/4 mile away and has some good trout fishing. You want to come in through Murphy, NC. There is a Super Walmart wher you can pickup everything. Tellico Plains which is north of our campsite and probably closer has only one grocery store and it's not a great one.


Weather so far looks to be around the mid 80's during the day and mid 60's at night.

I hope you can make it.

Thanks Marshall,

I may pull my camper and "really rough it" since two 9 yrs (boy and girl) and dog are coming. It is self contained too. Just need to find water somewhere rather than drag 40 gals across the mountain.
