Gorgeous Stays

5 Cabins, 3 Tent Sites, 2 Glamping Sites, 1 Yurt, 3 Vintage RV Rentals

Gorgeous Stays in Bryson City, NC, offers 3 RV rentals, 5 cabins, 3 tent sites, and 3 glamping sites and yurts. The RV accommodations here are the point and they are not ordinary: a double decker bus called The Crown Jewel, a converted school bus billed as the Travel-Inn Skoolie, and a vintage Shasta camper. These are rentals rather than sites for your own rig — if you're towing, contact the property directly about hookups and fit before booking. A bathhouse with showers, a general store, firewood, a community fire pit, and a pavilion serve the grounds. Pets are welcome. Glamping here means the conveniences of home without the distractions, and the property leans into that: billiards, ping pong, picnicking, planned activities, creek frontage, and fishing, with biking and a casino close by. Bryson City sits in Swain County in the western North Carolina mountains, minutes from Great Smoky Mountains National Park, with the Nantahala, Fontana Lake, and the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad all nearby. Rates for every accommodation type are on the booking page. The vintage rentals are one-of-one — book them early.

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.

Timberline Glamping at Amicalola Falls

6 Glamping Sites

Timberline Glamping at Amicalola Falls offers six luxury glamping sites inside Amicalola Falls State Park in Dawsonville, Georgia, at the foot of the state's tallest waterfall. Retro RV and furnished tent accommodations come with an outdoor pool, zip line, and full park access at 418 Amicalola Falls State Park Road. Six glamping sites make up the accommodations, including Retro RV units and spacious furnished tents — you arrive with luggage rather than equipment, which is the entire point. Restrooms, showers, laundry, a general store, and firewood serve the property. With six sites, reserve well ahead. Pets are welcome. An outdoor pool and a zip line anchor the on-site recreation, with sports courts, basketball, corn hole, walking trails, a playground, and a pavilion filling the grounds. A creek runs the property, with hiking, swimming, and picnicking from the site and wine tasting nearby. The waterfall is the reason to come. Amicalola Falls drops 729 feet — the tallest cascade in Georgia — and the state park serves as the approach trail terminus for the Appalachian Trail, marking the start of the 2,190-mile footpath to Katahdin. Watching thru-hikers set off in spring is part of the experience here. The setting sits within an hour's drive of the Atlanta metro, which makes this one of the most accessible genuine mountain glamping locations in the Southeast. Spring thru-hiker season and October foliage in the North Georgia mountains drive the heaviest demand. Reserve well ahead for both.

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. Pets are welcome. Tallulah Gorge is one of the most spectacular natural landmarks in the Southeast, and this is one of the only riverside RV campgrounds in northeast Georgia. Summer river season and October foliage drive demand. Reserve well ahead.

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.

Talking Rock Motorcoach Resort

One hour north of Atlanta in the foothills of the North Georgia Mountains, Talking Rock Motorcoach Resort offers a category of RV experience that is genuinely difficult to find: a luxury adults-only retreat on 115 private acres where the natural setting and the resort amenities are both operating at the highest level. Designed exclusively for Class A and Class B motorcoaches, the resort trades campground conventions for something closer to a mountain boutique hotel—without asking you to leave your rig behind. Talking Rock village sits at the doorstep, and the greater mountain corridor stretches in every direction. A Mediterranean-style clubhouse forms the social heart of the property, hosting everything from morning coffee hour to live music performances, ice cream socials, and community dance parties that draw guests out of their coaches and into good company. Dual pools—one heated, one chilled—accommodate different preferences, while a dedicated adult pool stays serene for those seeking a quieter soak. The hot tub with mountain views makes a strong case for lingering well past sunset. A full-service spa, fitness center, and pickleball courts round out the wellness and recreation options, and the resort's beautifully maintained gardens and open veranda make outdoor relaxation a genuine draw in itself. The 115-acre property backs up against the forested ridgelines of the North Georgia Mountains, and hiking trails winding through the grounds deliver immediate access to hardwood forests, seasonal wildflowers, and long views across the ridgeline. Elevation runs noticeably cooler than Atlanta, making the resort a popular escape from late spring through fall when the mountain climate is at its most inviting. Evenings carry a particular quality here—quiet except for the sounds of the Georgia woods, with the ridges catching the last colors of the day before the stars come out fully. Blue Ridge, one of the most beloved small mountain towns in the Southeast, is close at hand with its antique shops, wine trail, scenic railway, and outstanding trout fishing and tubing on the Toccoa River. Ellijay, Georgia's self-proclaimed apple capital, offers orchards, wineries, and seasonal festivals within easy reach. Amicalola Falls State Park—home to the southern approach to the Appalachian Trail—is accessible for day trips. Atlanta's world-class museums, dining, and entertainment remain within a comfortable hour's drive for those who feel the pull of the city. Talking Rock Motorcoach Resort is open year-round, though spring and fall claim the most devoted repeat visitors drawn by foliage and mild mountain temperatures. The resort caters exclusively to motorcoaches, so verifying rig compatibility before booking is essential. Event weekends with live music fill quickly, and checking the resort's calendar when planning around specific dates is recommended. If you're searching for an upscale North Georgia mountain retreat that blends genuine natural beauty with resort-quality amenities and a warm sense of community, Talking Rock delivers at every turn. Reserve your site and discover why loyal guests return season after season.

Camp Leconte Luxury Outdoor Resort

18 RV Sites, 5 Tent Sites, 7 Glamping Sites, 2 Treehouses, 3 Vintage RV Rentals

Camp LeConte Luxury Outdoor Resort in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, offers 21 RV sites, two treehouses, seven glamping sites, and five tent sites four miles from downtown, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups, cable TV, and rigs accepted to 42 feet.

Twenty-one sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 42 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, BBQ pits, cable TV, and site WiFi. Note the 42-foot cap before booking a larger rig. The lodging is the distinguishing feature: two treehouses, seven glamping units including European safari tents, and the three named retro campers give guests genuinely unusual options in a corridor where most properties offer standard cabins. An outdoor pool and hot tub anchor the warm months, with a playground, pavilion, and ping pong on the grounds. The mountain setting and creek nearby round it out, with birding productive across the property. Pets are welcome. Gatlinburg's downtown Parkway is four miles away, with Great Smoky Mountains National Park access adjacent and the full Smoky Mountain entertainment and dining infrastructure within minutes. An amusement park and wine tasting are nearby. The resort has run since 2013 as a family-owned boutique property. Summer and October foliage drive the heaviest demand in one of the most visited tourist corridors in the country — reserve well ahead for both.

Timberline Glamping at Lake Lanier - Shady Grove

Timberline Glamping at Lake Lanier Shady Grove in Cumming, Georgia, provides a gated glamping and camping retreat on the shores of Lake Sidney Lanier in Forsyth County's northern metro Atlanta lake country, combining direct water recreation access on one of the most visited lakes in the United States with the privacy and natural character of a wooded shoreline setting that the lake's more developed commercial areas cannot replicate. Positioned on Lake Lanier's eastern shore just south of the US Army Corps of Engineers' Shady Grove Recreation Area, the property serves both local metro Atlanta day visitors and overnight guests seeking the Georgia lake lifestyle in a gated property away from the crowded public beach and marina facilities. The property's water recreation focus is evident in every facility decision: boat docks, boat rentals, kayak rentals, paddle boats, and paddleboarding access give guests multiple on-water options without leaving the property, and the gated entrance and shoreline setting provide the private lake access that Lanier's most sought-after properties command. A beach for swimming, general store, firewood, laundry, playground, showers, and dump station serve the practical needs of overnight guests, and the bird and wildlife watching available in the property's wooded shoreline complements the active water sports recreation with quieter natural observation opportunities. Wine and beer tasting options accessible nearby reflect the north Georgia wine country character developing in the Forsyth County hills. Lake Sidney Lanier is a 38,000-acre reservoir on the Chattahoochee River in the northern Georgia Piedmont, created by Buford Dam in 1956 and now one of the most visited US Army Corps of Engineers lakes in the country with approximately 11 million annual visitors. The lake's proximity to Atlanta—approximately 40 miles northeast via GA-400—makes it the primary lake recreation resource for the nation's ninth-largest metropolitan area, driving the boating, fishing, and swimming demand that makes summer weekends on Lanier among the most energetically social lake experiences in the American Southeast. The Lake Lanier Islands Resort complex on the lake's eastern shore provides the most concentrated public amenity infrastructure with a water park, golf course, and marina that complement the more natural glamping experience at Timberline's wooded shoreline property. The north Georgia wine country developing in the Dahlonega area above the lake, and the Gold Rush heritage of Dahlonega's historic downtown—where the nation's first major gold rush occurred in 1829, 20 years before California's—provide cultural and culinary day-trip destinations that extend the Lake Lanier visit beyond the water recreation itself. Timberline Glamping at Lake Lanier Shady Grove operates seasonally from late spring through early fall in north Georgia's four-season climate, with the summer swimming and boating season from Memorial Day through Labor Day driving peak demand for the boat docks and water recreation access that distinguish this property from inland alternatives. The lake's famous July 4th fireworks display, visible from the water, represents the single most competitive reservation period of the summer when boat traffic on Lanier reaches its annual maximum. Fall's Georgia Piedmont foliage through October and the cooler temperatures of September provide a more relaxed canoeing and paddleboarding experience on water with significantly lighter boat traffic than the summer peak.

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.

Clearwater Cove RV Resort

47 RV Sites

Clearwater Cove RV Resort in Winchester, TN, offers 47 full-hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 65 feet.

The resort is rated big rig friendly, and the pull-thrus let long rigs settle in without unhitching. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, firewood, and on-site dining cover the practicalities. Pets are welcome, with a dog park on the property. The lakefront setting drives the recreation: a marina, boat docks, and a boat ramp put guests on Tims Ford Lake for fishing and boating, and an outdoor pool, game room, and pavilion handle the rest. Biking, picnicking, and swimming fill out the days, with a state park and wine tasting nearby. Tims Ford Lake is one of Tennessee's clearest reservoirs, impounded on the Elk River in Franklin County, with limestone bluffs and forested shoreline defining its 10,700 acres.

Doe River Landing

5 RV Sites, 1 Cabin, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Doe River Landing in Roan Mountain, Tennessee, offers six RV sites with water and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp service, plus a cabin and a travel trailer rental, in the Doe River gorge of Carter County. Sites take rigs to 45 feet with fire pits and picnic tables, and site WiFi reaches the property. At six sites this is a small, modern operation minutes from Roan Mountain State Park. Six back-in sites carry water and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, in premium and standard configurations sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. A cabin and a travel trailer rental serve guests without a rig. A dump station is on site for guests without sewer connections, and a general store, firewood, laundry, restrooms, and showers cover the practical side. The property makes good use of its river frontage and mountain setting. Walking trails run the grounds past a community fire pit and a pavilion, with a dog park and playground for families and pets. Fishing, swimming, hiking, volleyball, horseshoes, corn hole, and picnicking all run from the property, and the mountain and creek terrain makes for good birding. A barn on site doubles as a wedding venue. Pets are welcome. Roan Mountain State Park and the Appalachian Trail's Roan Highlands balds are minutes away. Bristol Motor Speedway, Grandfather Mountain, and Sugar Mountain Ski Resort are all within day-drive range, and skiing and snowboarding are nearby in season. Office hours run 9am to 6pm Monday through Thursday and Sunday, and 9am to 8pm Friday and Saturday, seasonally. The June rhododendron bloom on Roan Mountain and October foliage are the two peak windows — with six sites, book as far ahead as you can.

The Barlow RV Elk Park

4 RV Sites

The Barlow RV in Elk Park, North Carolina, offers 4 full-hookup RV sites in the Blue Ridge Mountains, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, open all year behind a gated entrance. Each site is named individually — In The Trees, The Granddaddy, The Mountain Wall, and The Rock — with a general store, community fire pit, walking trails, and on-site dining. Four sites are named rather than numbered, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 70 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and BBQ pits. Naming each site tells you exactly what you are booking — trees, a rock face, a mountain wall, or the big one — which is a level of specificity no tiered system achieves. Seventy feet accommodates a long coach with a tow. A general store, firewood, RV storage, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Pets are welcome, with a maximum of two per site. A community fire pit, walking trails, and dog park fill the grounds, with mountains all around and genuinely dark skies for stargazing. Wine and beer tasting is nearby, and planned activities run through the season. Four sites is boutique by any measure, and the curation shows. Avery County sits in the North Carolina high country near Banner Elk, with Beech Mountain, Sugar Mountain, and Grandfather Mountain all close — skiing in winter, the Mile High Swinging Bridge and Linville Gorge in summer, and the Blue Ridge Parkway running along the ridgeline. Fall foliage and ski season both drive demand. Reserve as early as you can.
