The Point RV at Lake Hartwell

97 RV Sites, 4 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites, 4 Cottages

The Point RV at Lake Hartwell in Townville, South Carolina, offers 97 RV sites, eight cabin and cottage units, and six tent sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted to 55 feet. Premium 50-amp back-in and both 30 and 50-amp pull-through categories join water-and-electric tiers, with a pool, clubhouse, and direct lake access. Ninety-seven sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 30-amp water-and-electric, back-in 50-amp, premium back-in 50-amp, pull-thru 30-amp, and pull-thru 50-amp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 55 feet. Confirm your tier — the water-and-electric category does not carry sewer at the site. Eight cabins and cottages and six tent sites round out the lodging. A laundry, dump station, restrooms, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with the lake supporting fishing, canoeing, kayaking, paddle boating, and swimming. A clubhouse, walking trails, hiking, playground, volleyball, and basketball fill the grounds, with live music and planned activities through the season. Pets are welcome. Lake Hartwell is one of the Southeast's premier reservoir destinations — 56,000 acres and 963 miles of shoreline on the Savannah River basin, straddling the South Carolina-Georgia border in the Blue Ridge foothills, with striped bass and largemouth fishing that draws anglers from three states. Summer lake season drives the heaviest demand, with spring and fall fishing strong and far easier availability. Reserve well ahead for warm-weather weekends and holiday periods.

River Falls at the Gorge

70 RV Sites

River Falls at the Gorge in Lakemont, Georgia, offers 70 RV sites along the Tallulah River with 30 and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted to 56 feet, open all year behind a gated entrance. River back-ins join premium categories including pull-throughs with decks and sites with private pavilions, 1.5 miles from the rim of Tallulah Gorge. Seventy sites span back-in river, premium, premium end, premium pull-through with deck, premium with pavilion, and pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 56 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. The deck and pavilion categories are worth requesting — genuine outdoor living space rather than a pad. Loops A and B are nightly sites; Loop C is for leasing. Cabins, treehouses, a tiny cabin, and tent sites round out the accommodations. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and firewood handle the practical side. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with tubing, fishing, kayaking, and river swimming in the Tallulah's clear mountain water directly from the property. A clubhouse, arcade, sports courts, basketball, corn hole, walking trails, hiking, biking, a playground, pavilion, and community fire pit fill the grounds, with a lake and wineries nearby.

Summer river season and October foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

Meraki Escape

2 Cabins

Meraki Escape in Brevard, NC, offers 2 luxury Nordic Spruce log cabins. This is an adults-only cabin retreat rather than a serviced RV park — no children, and the published record shows no RV sites or hookups, so contact them directly if you're traveling in a rig. Laundry, a bathhouse, on-site dining, a general store, a spa, a hot tub and sauna, a library, a concierge, and EV charging serve guests. Pets are welcome. The property also hosts weddings. One practical note the property makes itself: print or download the driving directions before you set out, because cell and GPS coverage drops through these mountains. Creek frontage, walking trails, hiking, fishing, kayaking, and birding fill the forested grounds, with wine tasting, golf, and a state park nearby. Brevard sits in Transylvania County in the southern Blue Ridge — the self-styled Land of Waterfalls, with Pisgah National Forest, DuPont State Forest, and more than 250 named falls in the county. Rates for the cabins are on the booking page. Two cabins, adults only — book early, and download the directions.

WyldStay Greenville

10 Glamping Sites

Occupying 30 acres of working Highland cattle farm near Fountain Inn, South Carolina, approximately 20 minutes south of downtown Greenville, WyldStay Greenville offers a waterfront glamping experience that occupies an uncommonly specific niche in the South Carolina outdoor hospitality market—premium, ensuite tent accommodations on a functioning farm property with a genuine pastoral character that distinguishes it sharply from both traditional campgrounds and conventional hotel lodging in the greater Greenville area. The property's combination of luxury safari-style accommodations, farm setting, and proximity to one of the South's most acclaimed mid-sized urban cultural districts gives it a versatile appeal across a broad range of guest types. Accommodations are premium Bushtec Safari Tents with private ensuite bathrooms—a configuration that delivers the sensory outdoor experience of sleeping in a tented structure alongside the sanitary infrastructure of a fixed building, without requiring guests to share facilities or compromise on comfort. Waterfront site positioning along the farm's water features provides views of the Highland cattle pastures and property landscape that reinforce the rural farm setting, and the secluded nature of the property's layout gives individual accommodation units a degree of private separation suited to the romantic retreat, couples getaway, or small family escape that WyldStay's accommodations are most naturally designed around. The Highland cattle that give the farm its agricultural identity are a distinctive feature of the property's sensory experience—large, shaggy-coated cattle whose docile temperament and photogenic appearance make them a memorable backdrop to a stay that emphasizes genuine farm immersion alongside glamping comfort. The working farm character of the property is authentic rather than performative, and the combination of cattle, pasture, water features, and woodland gives the 30-acre landscape a multi-layered natural quality that rewards guests willing to explore the property on foot across their stay. Greenville, South Carolina, consistently ranked among the South's most desirable small cities for its combination of dining, arts, outdoor access, and walkable urban design, is accessible within a 20-minute drive from the property. Falls Park on the Reedy, centered on a 60-foot waterfall in the middle of downtown Greenville, anchors the city's Main Street dining and retail district in one of the most architecturally successful urban waterfall park developments in the Southeast. Paris Mountain State Park north of Greenville provides hiking, mountain biking, and lake swimming within the city's immediate hinterland, and Lake Hartwell's extensive shoreline on the South Carolina-Georgia border is accessible for boating and fishing within a practical drive from the farm. WyldStay Greenville operates on a reservation basis with accommodations available across the spring, summer, and fall seasons—the periods when the South Carolina upstate climate most rewards outdoor stays in a tented safari tent with ensuite amenities. Spring offers the most comfortable daytime temperatures and the greenest pasture scenery, while fall provides cooler nights and the foliage color of the surrounding upstate woodland. The property's positioning as a couples and small-group retreat means accommodations should be reserved with advance notice, particularly for weekend stays during the spring event season in Greenville and the fall when the upstate South Carolina outdoor hospitality calendar is most active.

Beckon Ridge RV Park

44 RV Sites

Beckon Ridge RV Park in Duncan, SC, offers 44 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi. Every site takes all three amp services, so there's no adapter guesswork. Pets are welcome, and WiFi covers the property. This is a clean, straightforward park rather than a resort — the sites are the product. There's no recreation program on the grounds, but the surrounding Upstate supplies plenty: a state park and a water park nearby, plus Greer Station, Kids Planet Playground, Tyger River Park, Shipwreck Cove Waterpark, and Falls Park in downtown Greenville. Duncan sits between Greenville and Spartanburg at the junction of Interstate 85 and Interstate 26, in one of the most economically active corners of the Southeast. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Ask about weekly and monthly rates if you're working the Upstate corridor.

Timberline Glamping at Lula

6 Glamping Sites

Timberline Glamping at Lula in Lula, Georgia, is a modern outdoor accommodation experience bringing fully furnished safari-style tents to the North Georgia foothills between Atlanta and the Blue Ridge Mountains — a new-concept glamping property in Hall County with climate-controlled canvas tents, cozy beds, air conditioning and heating, and a Keurig coffee maker on each site in the rolling piedmont forest northeast of Gainesville. Lula's Hall County position at the southern edge of the Chattahoochee National Forest's Blue Ridge unit gives the glamping property the North Georgia mountain corridor access — Lake Lanier, the Appalachian Trail, Dahlonega's gold rush history, and Unicoi State Park — within a comfortable day-trip radius from a campground that serves the Atlanta metro's nature escape market without requiring the drive to the deeper mountain destinations two hours further north. Fully furnished safari-style tents with air conditioning, heating, cozy beds, Keurig coffee makers, and the ready-to-use setup that a true glamping property provides give guests the outdoor overnight experience without the equipment logistics that conventional tent camping requires — the format specifically serves the Atlanta market segment that wants the North Georgia mountain nature experience alongside the comfort threshold that makes camping feasible for guests without camping equipment or the inclination to manage a tent setup. The Timberline property's new-property investment in quality furnishings reflects the glamping market's premium positioning. Pets are welcome. Lake Lanier, the Chattahoochee River impoundment in Hall and Forsyth Counties immediately south of Lula, is the most-visited Corps of Engineers lake in the United States — a 38,000-acre reservoir with 690 miles of shoreline that sustains boating, water skiing, wakeboarding, fishing, and the summer water recreation economy of the Atlanta metropolitan area's primary drive-to lake destination. The Lake Lanier Islands' water park, marina, golf, and resort complex on the lake's south shore gives the reservoir the full resort infrastructure that sustains it as a family destination beyond the boat-ownership market, and the Corps of Engineers' public recreation areas distributed across the lake's shoreline give non-boat-owner campers the swimming beach and fishing pier access that the private marina development otherwise dominates. Dahlonega, 30 miles north of Lula via U.S. 19 in Lumpkin County, is the site of America's first significant gold rush — an 1828 discovery that preceded the California Gold Rush by 21 years and sustained the Georgia Gold Rush as the primary driver of the southeastern United States' economy through the 1830s and 1840s before the California discovery relocated the national gold-seeking market. The Dahlonega Gold Museum in the 1836 Lumpkin County Courthouse, the working gold panning and tours at the Consolidated Gold Mines, and the downtown's mountain town commercial character give Dahlonega's day-trip the specific historical depth that distinguishes it from the mountain wine and craft tourism that now primarily sustains the Dahlonega visitor economy. Timberline Glamping at Lula serves guests year-round in Hall County's transitional piedmont-to-mountain climate, where the spring wildflower and waterfall season from March through May, the summer Lake Lanier recreation peak from June through August, and the fall North Georgia leaf season from October through November represent the three peak demand windows from the Atlanta metropolitan market. The Appalachian Trail's southern terminus at Springer Mountain, 50 miles north in Dawson County, gives the property the proximity to one of the most significant long-distance trail landmarks in the eastern United States for the through-hiking and section-hiking community that the North Georgia AT corridor draws. Reserve glamping tents well ahead for the fall foliage season and Lake Lanier summer weekends, when the Atlanta market's North Georgia drive-to accommodation fills at high volume.

Timberline Glamping at Unicoi State Park

6 Glamping Sites

Timberline Glamping at Unicoi State Park near Helen, Georgia, offers six luxury tent accommodations inside the state park, furnished with beds, air conditioning, heaters, and Keurig coffee makers. A lake, beach, walking trails, and full park access sit at 1788 Highway 356 in the North Georgia mountains. Six glamping sites make up the accommodations, and the furnishing list is what separates this from camping in name only — beds, climate control in both directions, and coffee in the morning without a camp stove. Restrooms, showers, a dump station, firewood, propane fills and exchange, and WiFi serve the property, with cabins also available. With six sites, reserve well ahead. Pets are welcome. The park does the rest. Unicoi's 53-acre lake sits close by with a beach for swimming, and walking trails, hiking, a playground, and a community fire pit fill the grounds. A creek and river run nearby, with birding across the forested mountain setting, planned activities through the season, and wine tasting and an amusement park nearby. The approach makes genuine outdoor immersion accessible to guests who do not own camping equipment or want to haul it — you get the state park's trail network and mountain setting without the logistics. Helen is the Bavarian-themed alpine village a short drive away, which gives the area an unusual combination of North Georgia wilderness and walkable town. October foliage in the North Georgia mountains and Helen's Oktoberfest drive the sharpest demand. Reserve well ahead for fall.

Great Outdoors RV Resort

54 RV Sites

Great Outdoors RV Resort in Franklin, North Carolina, offers 54 full-hookup back-in RV sites in Macon County's gem-rich valley, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 51 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Premium and standard categories join a pool, fitness center, recreation center, and on-site dining in the southern Blue Ridge. Fifty-four back-in sites run in standard and premium categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 51 feet, with picnic tables. Two tiers keep booking straightforward. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and a pet washing station handle the practical side. One scheduling note: check-in runs 1pm to 5pm Eastern, and the resort cannot accommodate arrivals after 5pm because insurance requires all guests to be escorted to their site. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with a fitness center, recreation center, on-site dining, cabins, and a dog park filling the grounds. Hiking runs in every direction. Pets are welcome. Franklin has an international reputation for ruby, sapphire, and garnet mining — the corundum deposits in this valley have produced fine gem material for well over a century, and the mines welcome visitors. The Little Tennessee River runs through town, with the Appalachian Trail, Nantahala National Forest, and the Great Smokies all close. Summer and fall foliage drive the heaviest demand in the North Carolina mountains. Reserve well ahead for October, and plan your arrival to clear the 5pm check-in cutoff.

Sun Retreats Nantahala

21 RV Sites, 2 Cottages

Sun Retreats Nantahala in Sylva, NC, offers 21 full-hookup RV sites and 2 cottages, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come as back-ins and pull-thrus, each carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. If you booked here before, note the name change: this property was formerly Fort Tatham RV Resort & Campground.

An outdoor pool, a recreation center, a basketball court, and a playground fill the grounds, with fishing on the property and planned activities through the season. Sylva sits at the edge of the Nantahala National Forest in the mountains of western North Carolina — a corner of Appalachia that draws hikers, paddlers, fly fishermen, and anyone chasing mountain music. Rates for sites and cottages are on the booking page. Summer and fall foliage weeks book earliest in these mountains.

Pine Ridge Campground

23 RV Sites

Pine Ridge Campground in Roebuck, SC, offers 23 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in five categories — back-in, premium back-in, pull-in, pull-thru, and premium pull-thru — all carrying water, sewer, and electric with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue, and ADA-accessible sites are available. One measurement note that matters: published site lengths cover the camper itself, not hitches or tow vehicles, and every site is designed to hold two vehicles. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, firewood, propane fills, a dump station, and golf cart rentals cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. An outdoor pool, a game room with billiards, a pond, a pavilion, a playground, a community fire pit, walking trails, horseshoes, paddle boats, fishing, and planned activities fill the grounds. Roebuck sits on the I-26 corridor in the South Carolina Upstate, a few miles from I-85 and within reach of Spartanburg, Greenville, and the Cherokee Foothills Scenic Highway. Rates by site category are on the booking page. Measure your camper, not your whole setup, when picking a length.

Wilderness Cove Campground

3 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites, 8 Glamping Sites, 2 Cottages, 1 House

Wilderness Cove Campground in Saluda, NC, offers 3 RV sites, 3 cottage and house rentals, 7 tent sites, and 8 glamping sites, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and back-in sites for rigs up to 45 feet. Sites come in two categories, 30/50-amp full-hookup back-ins carrying water, sewer, and electric, and 30-amp water-and-electric back-ins, each with site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, and a picnic table. With 18 non-RV accommodations against 3 RV sites, this is a glamping and cottage property that also takes RVs. The grounds are gated, with a bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, on-site dining, and visiting food trucks. Pets are welcome. A zip line, a marina, a beach, inflatable water toys, and walking trails fill the riverfront property, with kayaking, boating, swimming, fishing, hiking, biking, and picnicking on the lower Green River. Saluda sits at the base of the Blue Ridge Escarpment, where the mountains drop dramatically from the Appalachian highlands to the Carolina Piedmont. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. Three RV sites means booking early is essential.

Dillsboro RV River Park

Dillsboro RV River Park in Dillsboro, North Carolina, offers full-hookup RV sites directly on the Tuckasegee River, with mountain views, a general store, and a big-rig-friendly layout in Jackson County. Catch-and-release fishing runs straight from the sites in one of the finest trout rivers in western North Carolina. Full-hookup RV sites carry water, sewer, and electric on a layout sized for big coaches — worth noting in mountain terrain where long rigs often struggle to find a level pitch. A general store covers camp basics and firewood, restrooms and showers serve the sites, and WiFi reaches the campground. The riverside sites are the ones to request. Pets are welcome. The river is the whole proposition. The Tuckasegee's cold, clear mountain water sustains one of the region's best brown trout, rainbow trout, and smallmouth bass fisheries, and catch-and-release access runs directly from the sites rather than a drive away — guests fish before breakfast without moving the truck. Whitewater rafting and biking run from the property, with planned activities through the season and a golf course and wineries nearby. The mountain views from the campground are the other reason guests book. Dillsboro is the distinguishing part. The small Victorian-era downtown has been preserved as a craft gallery, pottery, and specialty shop destination — a genuine arts community with its own character, distinct from the larger tourism economies at Cherokee and Bryson City nearby. The river flows through the middle of it, and the Great Smoky Mountains region opens up from there. Directions arriving from Highway 19-23 Business from the Sylva area: follow Highway 19-23 (Haywood Road) through Dillsboro to the stoplight at the US-441 and Haywood Road intersection, then turn left onto Highway 441. Summer fishing and October foliage drive the heaviest demand in the Smokies. Reserve well ahead for fall color weekends.
