At a cool 2,300-foot elevation, our campground is nestled in a grove of tall pine trees beside the sparkling Kirkland Creek. We’re off the beaten path, yet just minutes from all the great activities surrounding Bryson City and Cherokee, including the Nantahala Gorge, Deep Creek and the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. 

We’re one of the few Bryson City campgrounds that give you plenty of activities right on the grounds, including a swimming pool, game room and a trout pond where you or the kids can catch all the trout you can eat.
